Hoi y`all'uns as 'moi' decided that the 'ones' from that "Guild of Blades" version for "W.W.I" just weren't 'aesthetically pleasing' compared to these! Not only that, since I expect to "inherit" the "Axis & Allies"-version too, so, this were just several 'addendum'-features I intend to incorporate as well. Basically, you shall need to 'proceed' upon one unto the remainder "incrementally", that is YOU are required to 'enact'/'build'/'deploy' the 1st-"Trenches" before getting their "Improved"-version, and so on. You shall 'denote' these are 1/2-inch-X-3/4-inch overall dimensions depicted, resulting unto '198' counters in total with '4'-differing "designs" across each ROW so, '56'-different sort then! They are 'emplaced' upon the 'Game Board' along a particular 'Area's'/'Provinces' "Border"/"Boundary"/etc. and will 'cover' there then. This may even become 'effective' along a "Coastal" 'periphery' so as to DEFEND this there, too.
"Trenches" COST '3'--Take an entire 'Turn' by/of an 'Army' remaining 'stationary'-- REDUCE all Attacking 'Unit's "Fire" by '1'--Can become 'Destroyed' by "Enemy Occupation"--Shall be 'Countered' with "Tank(s)" usage.

"Trenches" II same as above along with prevents undergoing 'Heavy Artillery Barrage'
(https://grognadsusa.files.wordpress.com/2022/08/ww1-terrain-markers-2.png)
"Fortress" identical of "Trenches" II EXCEPT--COST '5', and 'No Countering with 'Tanks' while able to conduct "First Fire" -(d6 roll of '6'-"To HIT"-VS every Enemy Unit) and 'inflict' LOSSES prior to commencing "Enemy Attack".
(https://grognadsusa.files.wordpress.com/2022/08/ww1-terrain-markers-with-forts.png)
"Fortress II" has same 'Stats' as "Fortress" While (d6 "die-roll" of '5'-or-'6') to inflict LOSS

That's a long way around saying "print-&-play terrain"

Yeah, while many shall EXPECT some 'Dystopic Suppository Supposition' as THAT is where all-this shall "end up" while 'Pickle or DUCK Surprise' costs M-O-R-E-! There are even some 'Pieces' being seriously considered such with 'Minelayers/Sweepers' as well with 'Sea Mines'!
-
After quickly 'completing' the others above, then I decided upon 'fashioning' several "additions" of them 'Fortress'-markers, seen below here.
The "I I I"-sort are similar to the "I I" and COST--'5' while having "rolls 2-d6"-'effect' when "Firing" to HIT on '6'
(https://grognadsusa.files.wordpress.com/2022/08/ww1-terrain-markers-with-forts-3.png)
The "I V" COST '5'-more and does the same as above as well with "rolling 2-d6"-'effect' and HIT on '5'--'6' "Fire"

Okay, so as an 'au natural' "response" of 'moi', HERE "are" in Square "1/2-inch size" some 'Forts' and 'Bases' == 'Naval' and 'Zeppelyn'-( so-writ in "honors" of 'moi' "B.i.L." & life-long Play-Partner) markers. Upon their "obverse"/'back side' THEN I am considering 'Strength Numeral,/'Code'/'Letter' ? It is intended that they would 'denote' prior "constructions" as an 'addendum' ONTO 'Places' in being 'present' during some 'altercation', or even some "Battle"! Use copious 'Cereal Boxes' to obtain the 'thickness' desired for yours.

JUST within an 'hour' ago "are" them 'BACKSIDES' of the m-o-r-e recent 'STYLE'. For the 'time being' then they're 'used' in whatever manner you wished, since how else should W-E learn of how/what/where/etc. any could 'provide'?

JUST lately considered a few 'Games' they would "befit" within of "Superpowers"! , "Europe Aflame"!, "Europe at WAR"-(either)! perhaps some other 'apropos' "application" for them!
-
JUST now 'made' these within the last hour as it were being first SEEN here-! Some form a 'pattern' as they are viewed of across there, as it's 'intentional'-!

Hoi as 'moi' had gone ahead and MADE '2'-more "strengths"/"level"/etc. at there: ""BLOG"" (https://grognadsusa.wordpress.com/2023/03/04/latest-bravest-cravious-graphics-gone-hagagah-agoga/)<--'click this' I had begun to ponder upon there being a selection of "effectivenesses" in which a few could then become 'denoted' as anything that they shall "inflict"-! THEY will require a 'Chart' of differing aspects from which any are chosen as their 'Level' progressed. I'm currently in discussions with "Polyversal" about having them make this to alleviate 'clutter' of "Miniatures" versions.
-
HERE is the latest, as there WERE yet more of 'Advanced/Improved/Assured' types-!

-
THE "Obverse/Back" for those above, since it is believed on being much more "fairer" to allow 'interferences' PRIOR with these being completed of their 'erection rates'-! WHERE that may last/endure beyond '4'-whatever, why, consider 'toi' "fortunate"-, eh-?

These are "Lettered" sort as well with 'Base = Army Depot' and 'Coastal Defense' markers on the bottom ROW.

GROGnads speaking of WW1 have you tried the new game The Great War: Western Front?
-
Hoi and no, I had not as this is the first time hearing about that-! I just went to look it up at BGG while it isn't appearing right away. Beginning with A.H. "1914" in 1972, up to mid 1980s with 3W "Clash of Empires" or XTR "The Great War in Europe/Middle East" while much of this 'stuff' is directed upon/onto "A&A 1914". Well before that, then Guild of Blades produced their "W.W.I" 'Game' and even has 'Trenches', although naught as 'extensive' for these kinds shown of here.
If you could provide the 'Publisher' of that, then perhaps, it could be readily located as I'm curious about to what it did contain. There is too much lacking with "A&A 1914" and I'm acquiring plenty as well with these 'creations' of mine.

If you like WW1 period, then you should certainly take a look at the 'Der Weltkrieg' series if you have not already done so.

Oh, I was talking about the computer game on Steam.
-
Oh, well, I'm not at all "on" there for anything so, yeah, never had seen nor played that-! I'm mostly concerned about 'Board' games and such because I'm too 'worn out' from 'Meds' and their deleterious 'effects' after being "on" those for years now. In fact, I'm considering creating larger and improved 'counters' for "Clash of Empires" seen below-(currently viewed as around 1/4th-inch-?), since they are pretty skimpy as regarded 'graphics' along with being difficult to read/distinguish in such a small 'counter'. I figure that at least 5/8th-inch square kind shall provide better overall views, and more easily handlings then, while somewhat bigger 'graphics' or 'contrasts' would greatly improve matters.

Hoi as yes I have and found there's just too many tiny counters for manipulating and also is why NO "Memoir `44" either. I bought into "M-44" to discover sorry, none capable of it due to 'Meds' "after-dire effects" especially constant, consternatible, constipation-! It was 'Morphine'-based so, Yes, "T.M.I."-? Anything with a 'Tray' component is now beyond considerations, due to constant "place & pluck" features. Were these akin to "A&A: Pacific" 'Task Force' sort, why they are best-!
One further 'thing' being looked upon is 'Army Markers' to alleviate crowding or 'Locale Cards' of them smaller areas needing something-? FOR instantly devising thus about 'Armies', place a 'sticker' of letter/numeral beneath these and provide an "Army Chart" with placement of 'Pieces' upon this. They should become similar to those in order to disguise this, so Enemies will KNOW how much they're "biting into" some *Surprise*-!

Well, at "B.G.G." they did have a 'site' all about 'Video Games', and it may include PC-sort, I "guess"-? The "pisser-offer" WAS when XP was 'done' and it prevented A-L-L NON-such to become useful 'coasters' then, or useless 'Games'-! We LOST dozens of PC 'Games' due to the "switch" circa 2002/2003-? I did get several 'fixes' online while ONLY '4' for these "worked"-!

^I finally decided throw away a lot of my old pc-games last year. Even as coasters they were useless.

Although I love English muffins I'm not a connoisseur of them. I'm more of a coffee connoisseur. :)

HERE is a latest 'Concept' for displaying what forces are "in" any specific 'Fort(s)'-! ""BLOG"" (https://grognadsusa.wordpress.com/2023/04/14/furthered-forts-cards-for-fun-fawn-fancy/)<--'click there' AND there-->""BLOG" (https://grognadsusa.wordpress.com/2023/04/15/2nd-part-of-the-series/)

You may even write upon these CARDS if 'plasti-coted' and erasable markers are used-?
