I'm looking for some of the old blast markers. If you have them, or can scan them into a file, I would greatly appreciate it. I currently use red dice to represent blast markers, but I would like to use the old fashioned markers.

Thanks in Advance.

Hehe I actually ended up throwing mine out I think. I made some using orange cellophane, and I have a big bunch of steel wool waiting to be made into the really nice ones that are in the rulebook. However, currently I'm using red dice :)

The BFG resources section of the SG site has BFG blastmarkers. I use them and prefer them to my Epic40k ones - they develope unsitely frayed 'points'.

i found the epic40k ones would even split taking them off the backing card.  several tore down the joining slits as well.
I think I have a few lieing around but lack a scanner,  if scaled photos would work I can do that?

I'm using these for now:

Flattened glass marbles

You get about fifty for $3 (I'm using the red ones).  Not as visually appealing as little explosions, but they work OK -- they're fast, durable, and cheap.

I use ?metal blast markers minis which are from a manufacturer that does 1/300 scale minis.

I can't remember which one ...sorry .

But you could try looking at "irregular miniatures".

I used to get a lot of stuff from them.

I use plastic RISK counters from the earlier version of RISK.  The small ones represent 1BM and the large ones 5BM.  They work quite well and can, often, be found cheaply on eBay!

I used Dropship 40,000's method, except with sand as a base like my other mini's. Very quick and slap dash but it looks very effective. http://www.dropship.org.uk/epic/ter001.asp

I also will be using the Irregular blast markers. They are really good... but are yet another thing to paint!  :down:

Anyone have pics of those Irregular fire markers?  I've never seen them, and pics are hit and miss on their website!

Here you go. An old picture (not painted by me!).



These are the tops mounted on bases. They also come with a crater as a base.
