LITKO Adds Colour To Your Games With Special Counters
September 1, 2015 by stvitusdancern
Even the most serious gamer needs a little comic relief once in awhile to keep the game fun. I am all for a break in the tension any way I can. While surfing the World Wide Web for news stories, I came across some interesting tidbits from LITKO.
Anyone who has been in the military, does not matter what country you served, we all know the acronym "FUBAR" and how it can applied to anything that is not going the way you planned. Now LITKO has added some awesome acrylic markers for the battlefield that will definitely let your opponent know that your Firefly is out of commission.
I know these markers are not new, but I believe it warranted some attention as we needed to be reminded occasionally that this is a game to have fun.
How about some "Epic Fail" tokens to signify your opponents mighty charge ended up a total disaster or how about some "OMG" tokens when you cannot believe that "impossible" roll you just made. There are many more unique tokens to lighten those tense moments. After all we are here to have fun, are we not?
What do you think of adding some humor to your game?

Could do with some SNAFU, chod and buggermuppet tokens too
SNAFU – big box of them!
4 jokes, 10 of each token at $6 a set, add the chicken tokens and that’s $30 on jokes…
…package them a couple of each for $6 and they might have a hit!
I think there is a game that actually uses FUBAR tokens. Can’t remember which one though.
Bolt Action has a fubar table, though the results are played out instantly, with no need for counters (other than the usual order dice) to mark anything.
some A.F.F.S. tokens would be handy.
I picked up the FUBAR tokens a couple of years ago they’re not new. I have used them a lot in my games mainly for knocked out vehicles. A token is a token, use them how you like. I have quite a few from Litko
