Playing Pieces (miniatures) for face-to-face

[Woolgie]

Hey all,

I was wondering what people used for real life game pieces - tanks and fleets, and couldn't find any good method apart from buying the board game, which for me is a bit small.

So, I designed some units which you can now buy.

I have just taken delivery of some and they are very sturdy and of a good size (tanks 20 mm, boats 30 mm in length).

I bought white ones and am going to mount them on different coloured poker chips to add extra size and weight. alternatively you buy them readymade in each colour.

Hope someone else finds these useful.
