The Scripts of War - Marker Point

Two inhuman hands emerging from a gateway portal, holding a scripted skull of power. The marker point's base is 75mm and the marker itself is almost 50mm tall (right hand claws), making it easy to spot in any kind of battlefield. It can be used as a token for various points of interest.

The base also separates the battleground into quadrants (starting from the marker itself as a focal point) so you get four quadrants that can be used to find your troops from afar (ie, my Terminator squad is in quadrant 3 and my captain in quadrant 1). If the base is painted in separate colors you get colored quadrants (ie, my squad is in the red quadrant). This can also be very useful in situations where mass effects affect the battlefield (for example, all troops in the red quadrant suffer a hit, etc).

Alternatively, the skulls can be used to point directions (so we get, "all in line of sight of the black skull suffer this effect).
