Yeah,
Warhammer 40,000: Conquest has cardboard dials and a lot of tokens.
On the whole they are pretty OK.
But they are let down by the brown card board edge... yukky.

I decided to paint the edges.
I already had these pens from making my x-wing tokens sexy.

I spent 2 hours painting the tokens from two core sets!
Enough for two people to share during a game and no worrying about mixing tokens stocks.

It's bloody boring... easy though.
I painted the dials before assembly to make getting the eye lens easy.


The pens are about £3 - £4 each... quite expensive, I used 4;

Uni Posca Slate grey
Sharpie 'Paint' Red
​Sharpie 'Paint' Lime Green
​Sharpie 'Paint' Aqua

I'm pretty happy with them.

Panic...

Slick!

Lining your cardboard is always a great idea to improve the look of game components and you picked exactly the right colours here.

That reminds me, I really need to line my Battle Systems terrain...

Wow! That really makes the pop! Very cool!

Nice work mate, just adds a finished touch to the game. Thanks for the tip.
