Berserk units often drive all known enemy units away, or a unit can go berserk in close terrain (e.g. jungle). The berserk unit then has to charge the location of the last known enemy unit [A15.431], but who wants to remember where that is? We need the "Berserk Charge Target" counter.

We may be getting ahead of ourselves here.

Berserkers are among the most vulnerable units on the board, and the most likely to suffer (and commit) human rights abuses. They are outcasts, combatant lepers scorned by NGOs, and barred from international brigades of vulnerable groups.

If they survive their ordeal, berserkers ostensibly return to normal. But what of the hidden scars, the psychological trauma? How do we keep track of those in need of post-scenario counselling and group therapy?

We need a "Returned to Normal" counter.

Agreed each map should have some safe spaces where both sides can unite free of bullying and binary gender preconceptions.

BFP guys, IIRC, asked for suggestions of new markers.
You could contact them.

On an even less relevant basis, one may suggest a "i've seen them!" counter, which would be placed on all units having witnessed an enemy unit using a tunnel entrance, so that these would be eligible to a recovery dr to destroy it.

At some point, there is such a thing as too many counters. In most situations, such information can be recalled or, if need be (very large scenario, or one played on a very long time span), side recorded.

If a potential new information counter would see use in only extremely rare situations, maybe it's not that needed... (I like my neat stack of Raaco boxes as much as the next guy, but I'd like to be able to keep only one for information counters)
