Chain of Command Germans and Shock Tokens
Whilst on a roll with Chain of Command and my 15mm Second World War lead pile I decided to put a new German platoon together using some left over Plastic Soldier Company figures specifically for CoC. These will be augmented by the figures I previously painted:
Also, I wanted to make some shock tokens for the game. As luck would have it, I have a load of casualty figures that I have never used for anything. I also have a lot of dice holders left-over from my Blücher bases: a perfect combination. It was a quick task to knock these German tokens together:
And these Soviet tokens.
As you can see there is enough space to hold up to three dice on each. This should be more than enough to track a unit's shock during a game.
I'm happy with how these came out and they will be useful for other games along with CoC.

They look great. I like the casualties on the marker bases- they make mine look quite pedestrian.
ReplyDeleteCheers,

Cheers Pete. I'm sure yours work perfectly well for the job! I always struggle with what to do with casualty figures, so this was a good solution.
DeleteThey do look good - well done that man! Have you thought about using different dice colours instead of (or as well as) multiple dice? e.g. a green die is the number shown, yellow die is number +6 and red die is number +12
ReplyDeleteThank you! That's a good idea, the different colours could also stand for shock and casualties on multi-figure bases. It's definitively worth thinking about some more.
