Yesterday at Office Max I saw a roll of Dry Erase Tape. About 2 to 2-1/2 inches wide in a dispenser like packing tape.

So you could cut tape to size, apply to a stat card -- or base as in Blucher -- and then use dry markers.

Package also said the tape is easy to remove, so once it gets messed up, you can easily replace it.

This is worth a look. Card based games, unit labels, etc…

Wouldn't regular clear tape work over a printed label? You could leav enough white space on the label for status change.

@Joker -- regular clear tape isn't [as?] erasable. And probably harder to remove without damaging the surface underneath.

I was thinking the same thing – that dry erase markers would come off of regular packing tape.

Maybe wet erase is better for writing on regular tape?

Scotch tape matte finish can be written on with pencil and erased just like on paper.
