I'm finally getting around to making my own counters and I want to include a couple for the esoteric actions that need them and I'm getting kinda stumped what a marksmanship counter should look like.

Obviously it should be connected to focus somehow, but how? Bigger? Different color? Have multiple eyes? Put the eye in front/inside of an explosion symbol?

What do you think?

Also, what other actions in the game could benefit from a custom token?

Crit with an eye inside imho.

Or just a crosshair.

You could also make expose close to this

For me marksman elicits the idea of a crack shot, one possibility could be a crosshair icon..

Or maybe a crit icon, with a couple hit icons with it.. maybe a hair larger than a regular focus token..

I'm loving it.

Crosshair over the focus symbol. The focus symbol makes it clear it can interact with focus tokens while the crosshair symbolizes the marksmanship part of the card. The token also looks like an aggressive, upgraded focus token, which is essentially what marksmanship is. Simple, but effective.

Here's an image of cog'o'two's version.

I rather like Cog o'Two's special token set. Those are what I use.

Applied Perspective sells generic 'skill' and 'droid' tokens as well.

Ooh. I like the explosion symbol instead of a circle inside the eye icon. Think I'll do something like that.

Thanks guys.

Yeah Rodent Mastermind really pretty much captured the essence of the Marksmanship action right there.

Another idea would be the eye symbol with a crosshair + crit symbol. So, like Rodent's design but with crosshairs instead of the cog.

Yep, that is where I went. Made the crosshair part of the shape of the counter instead of engraved though, so the counter is not exactly circular but has four protrusion around the edge of the disc, and is slightly larger.

Wow, I didn't think Marksmanship was so good that it needed some specific in game counter.

The OTHER kind of counter. As in a marker to represent its use as opposed to something designed to negate the effect.

I like the suggestions of crosshairs over a focus symbol.

I like using the pistol counter that comes with the Firespray (IIRC), something like that would pretty clearly indicate an improved shooting ability without the possibility of having someone think that it's just a fancy focus token.

You pretty much described exactly what I had envisioned

so like these ones http://store.aetherworks.com.au/product_info.php?cPath=176_269_1711&products_id=16215&osCsid=9e14f8f025d662d79358b0458bd2779f

Why not put the card near the ship, grettings.

I wonder if there is anyway to get THIS image on a token for marksmanship.

Or this one, seeing as Leia gets more kills with a pistol than anyone else LOL

Just realized that I never posted what I finally came up with

Here is what I did for Marksmanship

And here are all the other counters I did, if your interested.

Another question for you guys. I have been playing a lot with the Decimator and it looks like I might actually be using expose frequently. What should an "Expose" counter look like? Shape? Color? Icon?

put the card next to the ship on the table.
