Those look good. Easier to move with the units. |

The skulls are beads, and cheaply obtainable from Amazon. |

A tidy solution |

Correct, You can purchase the beads through various vendors. I thought the ones I intent to use for shaken were dark gray, apparently they are glow in the dark, must have grabbed the wrong pack…opps. Will likely hit them with a dot of yellow paint so they are easy to recognize as shaken. |

I use 1,2,3 wounded figures on a stand for listing casulties (before taking off a 4 figure stand), and decorate the table with a dead figure for each stand lost. |

decorate the table with a dead figure for each stand lost. I play a different set of rules, but also use a dead figure for each stand lost. Makes it clear where the fighting was heaviest. |

It is a very visual way of marking casualties. I like the idea. |

So, we have another 30 Zulu casualties and 15 British without the posts. Our plan is to litter the battlefield with these for a visual representation of where the fighting occurs. |
