    Default Smoke Cloud Markers

    Hey there, so as part of the lieutenant level KS I got four smoke cloud markers, though they seem to have brown sticky paper on them, is this meant to be peeled off? Some of the brown paper like material has writing on it so I figured if I peeled it off of those ones at least i wouldn't be losing anything, but as it is now they are useless to me. I saw in the store it said color it in with a crayon, what is that supposed to mean? Thanks in advance

    Yes, brown paper peels off. When I ran the demo, it worked best with the brown paper left on one side. The white side meant you just fired. The brown side meant you were reloading. No marker means you're loaded and ready to fire.

    Thank you that helps a lot, I was afraid of ruining them haha. So it has some accent cuts, do you color with a crayon then wipe off everywhere but the depressed areas?

    We did something similar. It worked great - the info was right there on the table.

    I looked for the posts that showed pictures of folks coloring/highlighting the markers, but can't find them. Basically, they highlighted the borders of the white side with a black marker, and added a few swooshes to enhance the cloud effect.

    Yes, you can fill the accent cuts and wipe any access off with a paper towel. That will give you the details you see in all the photos.

    Was going to order a couple of smoke markers with the new preorder for wave two but can't find them on the site have they been removed?
    Same for the wooden combat rulers?

    They still seem to be there under Home -> Official Products -> Sails of Glory

    I have had problems navigating to the page whereby if I click on the 'Official Products ' part of the menu rather than the 'Sails of Glory' dropdown it displays a message "There are no products matching the selection.".

    Yes, I had that problem with the iPad, for some reason it is very difficult (although not completely impossible) to click on the dropdown SoG with finger tapping, it may be easier with a stylus perhaps.
