In Blood Bowl, I really don’t like the aesthetics of turning players to face the other way to mark the fact that they’ve taken a turn. I had a huge bag of 40mm round bases in my collection, so I decided to paint them up green to act as markers.
Both teams start with the markers under every player and then remove them as each player activates. It’s a simple but effective way of keeping track of everything.
I also painted up some of the round bases red to represent prone players, and left some of their original black colour to put underneath stunned players.
And I had a larger round MDF base, which I turned into a ball carrier marker. This has been a lot better than fiddling about with the tiny ball model on its own.
Nothing groundbreaking about any of this, I know. But it has definitely improved my Blood Bowl play experience!
