Does anyone use paper or card to represent their troops?

I can't paint and dislike it to the point that any army I paint, will either look terrible, or take a very long time to field. Probably a bit of both.

To that end, I was considering using something akin to paper or card to represent troops on the battlefield. One problem I think I might encounter, would be identifying a large body of fighting men lined up in ranks.

That said, can anyone recommend a website that sells paper/card armies?

To clarify, I'm interested in both the standing paper/card figures you slot into bases, but primarily, I am looking out for the top down 'flat' bird's eye view type of thing to represent pretty much everything; chariots, rank and file infantry, PAK40s, etc.

Thanks all.
