[OT] game pieces

In WalMart's craft department I found "Tessel Tiles", a
collection of semi-rigid sponge triangles, squares and hexes,
all with edge length (not width) approx 0.625 inch. A pack, containing perhaps
100 total pieces in various colors, was $3.49. Looks like you should be able
to use a magic marker on one side to mark unit designations for any strategic
games you
plan--triangles for squadrons, squares for brigades, hexes for
planets, for example.
