After Playing at Hedgecon I contacted Litko to get some of the cool tokens I saw. Jim put together a custom order for me. At my request he has now added the to his "Jim's Lab" which is a test area of the Litko site. If they do well they may be come a permanent item. Anyway, if you are interested here is the link: www.litkoaero.com/categories/Jim's-Lab/ Additionally they have the listing tokens on their site. HTH.

Aaron,
Your link doesn't work (because of the apostrophe, I think) . . . BUT it does take us to the Litko website . . . and if you then click on the "Jim's Lab" link to the left and then sort by "newest items", several neat markers can be found. Click on them for a closer view.

Odd...worked for me...I just did a cut and paste. Either way once you get to Litko check out Jim's lab.

Bugger my friends and I already put an order in about 2 months ago. Used plenty of the custom options for all the crit possibilities. I do like the evasive maneuvers though, might get those.

These are the custom tokens Nisk and myself had Litko make for us to use with NT:

I like your custom markers... but couldn't find them in Jim's Lab. Similar, but not quite. Was he going to offer the one's you ordered... specifically?

The ones in the lab now are the ones he did for me. They are similar to bbok..I sent Jim the images from the game as well as pics so they woukd be like the ones Harry and Mike had at Hedgecon
BTW if you are interested I would take advantage while they are I the store. Custom order is $2 more per 10.

I think these would work really well for Evasive:

Thank, Lee

I feel that if a bunch of people email them about it, they will.

FYI, I spoke to Jim yesterday as I had not received my order yet and was hoping to have them for "Little Wars" to show off his product. He explained that he has been a couple weeks behind on production. He will be at "Little wars" and is going to try and bring my order with.
I will talk to him about the idea of an NT pack there.
Harry is correct it will all depend on how much business they draw for him.

Nice job afilter. I did a custom order for NT tokens last summer. They look pretty good but not as nice as the ones you got Jim to put together for you, as I was just using the basic shapes they offered.
I also picked up some spash markers, smoke, gun flashes (to keep track of which ships have already fired in the current phase), torps, and of course the smoking markers for fires.
Visually its impressive. I'll try to do an AAR sometime and include all the eye candy!

My mates and I put in a custom order a while back so it seems that there's a market for the markers.

Okay, well this was from a battle where we tried out some house air-rules. It didn't go well for Japan and we called it quits after turn 1 - so no AAR, but here are some shots with Litko stuff. Above: Kongo opens up at long range. Above: The Alaska returns fire. Above: Akagi falls victim to a massive US airstrike. Above: Kongo goes down fighting! I'll try to do a proper AAR with photos sometime (instead of the just bringing the camera along to games that end too soon!). -Tim

Looks amazing!
Wow. . . Japs lose Kongo and Akagi on Turn 1? You're not kidding about the IJN having a bad day! LOL
Was it the air rules that needed tweaking? Or just random lucky die rolls?

Like all the different makers. We did our own also, but not the nice shape you all did.
