Markers!
Here are a bunch of counters I've put together for All Quiet on the Martian Front. They are being posted at original size, so just click and copy.
General advice is print on colored cardstock. I'm using green for Rout, Magenta for Armor, and Orange for Damaged Systems.
The big Armor sheets are meant to be cut out by the corner lines and mounted back to back for two-sided counters.
The Rout and Damaged Systems sheets are meant to be cut out as the Armor sheet was then cut down the slid line in the middle. Mount back to back by aligning the original corners.
I use a 1 inch circular scrapbooking punch to get them out, but you can use scissors or a paper cutter to make squares.

All Quiet on the Martian Front
My Kickstarter arrived late last week. Sadly, my Martians didn't get
their Heat Ray template. Puny humans! As if this will stop their
inevitable march to victory. Co-conspirator Samuel Yates quickly
replied to my emergency communique and promised they'd be in wave two.
He knows the Harvester will be calling if they are NOT! In the
meantime, he provided the following technical details
The sweep template is 6 inches
> long and 2 inches high. So if you drew a 6x2 rectangle and a curve from one
> corner to the other that touches the top. Then go in about an inch and a
> half from each corner and connect those two points with an arch you should
> be pretty close.
Tests with photoshop produced the following:
Copy-paste-print on orange, yellow, or red cardstock to suit!
