Casualty markers...

[rogg]

I am working on 10mm SYW project with Black Powder rules. Therefore, I need to build some form of casualty markers. I want to use some modified miniatures. Has anyone an idea how to model them?

This is what I did for HC



Casualty figure on a 1p coin. Little walls of milliput to hold the dice.

Those are soo good, wish I'd thought of a little wall of milliput to hold the dice 

I've just finished my 7YW markers and used pack AWX1, I think they are a bit Napoloeonic but work fine.

[fred.]

They're not perfect, I think the miliput wall should be a little higher, and it is better if it is on 4 sides not 3, which means some trimming of the figures. But I'm going to make some more.

These are made with the Late Roman casualty figures - which work pretty well for all sorts of medieval and fantasy armies.

found some little plastic circles at work, came in handy   now I have about 3000 left, lol

British Casualty Markers


Brunswick / Hessian / Jaeger Casualty Markers


Continental Casualty Markers


Green - 1 hit,  Yellow - 2 hits, Red - 3 hits

So, how do the little coloured circles work, Dazza? Are they removable?

[Dazza]

you put the flat edge onto the edge of the base and the point furthest from the base is the colour that denotes the hits.


take this photo below :



the top right base, green and red edge will touch the unit base and therefore yellow will be furthest away - denoting 2 hits.

Ah, too simple. Never thought of that.
