Markers for SYW

Manufacturer:  FrontRank
Scale:  28mm


In my penultimate post I showed some pictures from the markers Christopher (aka Axebreaker) produced for OperationSquad.
I liked them so much that I decided to make some on my own for my SYW project. 
I want to use them to mark units that are retreating but don´t know if this will work, so I only made two of them yet.

Tomorrow were will be a little convention (also with Axebreaker) where we want to play BlackPowder. 
So they will have their first action.

The sabres and the guns are from FrontRank. 
I found them in my bits box.

As bases I used 5cent coins (Euro-cents).





Cheers
Mike

  7. they look really marvellous! I think, too beautiful to just be a marker - couldn´t they not be placed to whole time on the battlefield - gives a good effect!
    Bravo, Mike!

  8. Thank you for your comments. We had again a game of BlackPowder yesterday and decided to use the markers for "disordered". So I will have to produce some more. This will be fun. :)
