- pennants-1 - Flags used to mark activated units. Glue a golf tree to a base and wrap these around the tee securing with glue.
- allied_blinds-1 - Here are some blinds to use for hidden placement/movement if you do not want to have a referee. We have never used blinds before but it should work fine. Assign one blind per unit and give each side a couple of dummies. Move the blinds on the table and use normal spotting rules to reveal the blind. If an element in a blind does a fire action only that element is reveal not all the elements in the blind.
