Hunger counters for This War of Mine

If you’re going to be Hungry and Miserable, you might as well do it in style. :)

This War of Mine is one of my favorite board games. It’s not like I;m playing it every week trying to improve my strategy. What really shines for me is the story, the feel of the game, and the way that it presents an incredibly personal narrative. I’ve never really experienced anything quite like it.

There are a lot of cards and tokens and resources. These four-sided markers make it easier to keep track of all your various ailments. No need to search through and swap out all of the original, double-sided tiles.

The laser-cut burn marks seem like a good fit for the theme so I left them as-is and then them with some diluted acrylic inks. If I make another set I will dilute them even more.

I’m tempted to make a custom organizer for this game, too. It already has a decent insert but I could dream up something that would go from box to table quickly.

You can grab the SVGs at BoardGame Geek and laser-cut your own.
