Take Root, Knocked down and Stunned tokens

Post by Deus Magi »

I played my Halflings last week, got a bit mashed. Realised that I need three Taken root tokens, three Knocked down tokens and three Stunned tokens. Any advice on nice, preferably metal, tokens that can be bought? I'd settle for plastic though. I was thinking of just some nice scenic bases with a large fallen tree or tree stump on it, for the Take root. I don't want anything cardboard. is there anything good out there being sold. I'm looking at having it painted up to match the rest of the team. The treemen are just too big to lay down on the pitch.

Check out Greebo for tree markers http://www.greebo-games.com/product-cat ... l/markers/

For take root I tend to put a red reroll marker under the player's 30mm base.

Silly question. Why would you need three take root markers? You can only take two treemen. Unless you're counting Deeproot, in which case I suggest you have a closer look at his skills before your next game! ;)

Of course, you are dead right! As soon as I read you message. Klang. I'll have a nose at those Greebo items.

I use these in combination with the Greebo markers for trees that are downed and/or rooted

Depending on where you are, Impact might be your best option: http://www.impactminiatures.com/index.php?option=tokens
Impact are US (but ship anywhere), and have a UK supplier in Tritex Games (although at a quick glance I couldn't see them on their site).

All good stuff. I've got some of the weather tokens that Impact do, very nice. I'm leaning towards the Greebo markers and some sort of scenic base for Take Root. Appreciate the ideas, any more welcome.

Hungry Troll make (or made, not sure they still have them) some very nice treeman counters.

If you've already got stunned/prone markers in mind, they could work equally well for Take Root. They're resin, so you could even file off the text pretty easily.

Those are not quite for me, but thanks for giving me their name. Looking at their site, they have some great stuff. Goblin cameras, the classic reporters and some pretty good looking turn markers. Also, luckily, I didn't see that Ogre Kickstarter, or my money would have gone down on that for a full set!

but they are out of stock at the moment. Does anyone know if Tabletop Arts have their own site, or are stocked by anyone else?

I did actually search Tabletop Arts with Bloodbowl, but it came up with a wealth of other stuff. I'm getting old! I should have been more specific :roll: . Thank you.
