Hobby Lobby colored beads. That said, I use little cardboard chits like old board game unit/tokens. It helps to have a chart with color and effect listed. |

I mainly use coloured tiddlywinks or tile spacers for this sort of thing, but I also have some 15mm (Peter Pig) and 6mm (Irregular) casualty markers to show disorder. Irregular also make shell bursts, which are useful for showing units suppressed by artillery fire. |

Litco makes all sorts of markers and will even make custom ones for a reasonable price. |

A second for Litco, a bit pricey but worth it. |

You might look on Etsy -- lots of markers/tokens there. If you could use "Battle Shock" tokens, then they would certainly be available there. |

Our club prefers to avoid chits. So we use a gray rock, a white rock and a twig/log instead. |

I'm a bead (6mm) and tiddlywink (28mm) person myself, but Litko does a nice job. |

It never came to fruition, but I had been planning an ACW game. The combat units were to be mounted on rectangular bases. The status markers were to be individual figures on washers. A figure reloading would be a low ammo marker. Anybody running would be shaken. 2 runners = rout. That sort of thing. |

You could also purchase laser-cut MDF rectangles of the desired size (a square is a rectangle, but not all rectangles are squares), then print your own labels, and decoupage them to the MDF. I suggest color laser printed labels, as their toner images will not run when wetted by Mod Podge. Alternatively, for my fantasy games, I use Goat miniatures, painted, based, to mark units which are Shaken/Disordered; for Routing units, I place a painted, based Chicken miniature next to them. These markers follow the units across the gaming table. Cheers! |

I use MDF markers, from vital ground, with casualty figures on them, Tally Ho! |

I use 3/4" lengths of 1/16" balsa painted appropriate colors. |

Could go old school and use colored pipe cleaners or paper _ holes? |
