Subject: [FT/B5] Fighter bases
Here's how I solved the problem: First I broke and filed off the existing "pegs" for the fighters. Next, I glued 6 earring posts (US$2 for 100) to the base. Finally, I glued the fighters themselves to earring backs (painted black). Now when I lose a fighter, the actual fighter model can be removed from the base rather than using a die. It really looks good (the earring post is thinner and more invisible than the original peg) and it shows you the fighter strength at a glance. Fun to watch my oponent's squadron being whittled down too... Just an idea that's worked very well (and was very cheap and easy!)
