HBG Naval Mines Marker (Acrylic) x5

These acrylic pieces are great! Super clean - TY!

I really like these markers. I bought them for use in A&A 1940. The production is very good with crisp colors and edges. As in the case of the Airfield and Naval Base Markers, now you can upgrade from the drab OOB pieces to something more noticeable. They look really sharp on the board. Pieces like the sea mines let you add a bit more tactical depth to the game which may end up being a strategic game changer. For my house rules, I use sea mines which may be purchased for 10 and placed in coastal sea zones. Any ships making combat moves (friendly or enemy) through that sea zone is attacked in the same manner as aircraft would be by Anti-Aircraft units in the older rules. During amphibious assaults, transports carrying units are actually taken as casualties first. Sea mines remain on the board, but can be removed by destroyers by having a battle with them (assuming there's no enemy ships in the zone.
