Maybe I'm missing some big innovations in how miniatures markers are designed, but even if I have some nice color wooden circle that sits under my minis' bases, wouldn't I still have to pick up the mini, place or take away the token, and replace the mini whenever the condition was inflicted or removed?I suppose little magnetic circles would be best--they would move with the mini and wouldn't need to be carefully picked up whenever the mini moved--but even then, wouldn't I have to pick up the mini, pry off the magnetic circle, and replace the mini whenever the condition was inflicted or removed? And if the mini had multiple conditions on it, mightn't I have to pick up the mini, pry off several magnetic circles, replace some of them, and then replace the mini?Tokens that just sit next to the base of the mini are much easier to put down and remove, and they shouldn't be a space problem unless the character is absolutely surrounded by at least 6 or 7 baddies. I've used little gem counters that just sit next to the mini for conditions before, and it worked fine. The only problems we had were forgetting which mini each little gem went with and remembering which color meant which condition. With their wrap around sides and the name of the condition printed on them, both problems are solved. I guess if your combats regularly have large melees these markers would be a problem, but that's not generally my experience.</blockquote>
