On this we have to disagree, Alan’s counters are designed to reduced the info counter clutter but there is no real need for National cavalry counters, I mean how many scenarios use the cavalry ........

Radio Contact/No radio contact various calibers; 70 OBA; 80 OBA; 100 OBA; etc.
These would fit with your existing AR/SR/FFE counters in the first run.
I've decided to include red and blue Battery (No) Contact counters for each OBA calibre.

Thanks to all for your ideas.

I would like mounted horse counters for every possible nationality and squad type. And SMC too.

Would make me want to design more scenarios with Cavalry.

One will be in the next DTF pack !

A scenario, not a mounted horse leader counter.

We should be able to do different horse breeds, no? Chapter H for Mongolian ponies vs Arabians?

and every vehicle variant with a broken headlight and low on washer fluid
That reminds me, I was reading a book on the King Tiger and they mentioned that the headlights could be dismounted so they weren't damaged during combat. So we'll need "Headlight Lost" counters.

Now that's just silly. Why would we need a generic headlight lost counter when we could have vehicle specific ones?

With vehicle-specific headlight counters we can also simulate crews pilfering them from other vehicles, and quartermaster SMC/MMC counters for unit inspections and audits ...

"Beans Eaten" counters for AFV. Increases the risk of a burning wreck by -1 as per D5.7 if knocked out or forces a D5.5 Immobilisation Check (whether immobilised or not) if not, due to fright triggered gas emmision.

Yeah, it would be good, wonder if there would be any way to do a GENERIC mounted horse counter though to save on having to do one for every nationality. Surely that would be a good idea?

Too many different values. 4-5-8, 5-4-8, 6-2-8. What are you going to put on the counter?
Almost any type of squad can ride.
