Nice.  With the way I'm rolling of late I think you need to have more than two.

Le Frog came up with a similar idea at our LGS.

He uses white golf tees to mark which ships have fired their guns / torpedoes.

They are also quite fun when your opponent's BBs are having a bad time firing. 3 Richelieus (his) versus 2 Venetos. His shooting: 1. Miss: I put a row of golf tees in front of my BBs. 2. Miss: I put a row behind 3. Miss: I put a row in between. We were all cracking up at the bad rolling, considering they were firing against VVs. I hit 2 Richelieus in return.

Good times.

i have an set of 20(or nineteen i think the cat got one) and am planning on useing them as "stratle markers" for second + third turn consecutive fireing (after scoreing an damageing hit of course) granting and small spiff to future dice rolls.

i am thinking reroll ones after an stratle just me... Twisted Evil

Those look great! What did you use to make them exactly? Is that bits of cotton ball or something else? Very nice.

Looking at these it made me think of a potential house rule use for them.

What about something like if your opponent gets 1 less success than requied to hit(surface gunnery only) then you are bracketed (place a marker next to the ship)

Effects of bracketing-reduce movement by one the next turn to simulate evasive manuevers.

Just a thought.

Edit: I created a thread in the WAS house rules if anyone wants to discuss this as a possible rule:
