[BFG] Solving an Unusual 'Problem'
My wargaming friends have either moved away or play other wargames. The rest of my gaming group only plays RPGs and board games. Fortunately I get to play BFG with my son (and surprisingly) with Mrs Zorcon. So far we have played 5 500pt games and we just finished a 1000pt game a few days ago. On average we can only fit about 2 hours of game time each night, and our games are taking 4-6 hours.
At first, I thought the length of our games was attributed to (re)learning the game and teaching it to non-gamers. But me thinks the real reason our games are taking so long is likely due to both my wife and son have ADHD. They both have short attentions spans and sometimes getting them to stay seated is like herding cats.
To the point of this post (finally). We are finding it difficult to track which ships have ordinance. I have tried having them mark it on their sheet, but that isn't always accurate.
This is what I came up with--A magnetized bauble. At the moment, I only have yellow, but the craft store has a variety of colors. For ships with both launch bays and torpedoes, I will have 2 of these baubles.
