Deweycat Bolt Action Ambush Marker

One of the six "Orders" available to Bolt Action Players is "Ambush", a very effective option to cause grief to your opponent's tactical plans. When used on certain weapon systems - specifically, those able to fire AP and HE – e.g. American 75 mm guns, Soviet Zis-3, Bulgarian Skoda guns, some auto cannons, etc - the player must specify whether the gun in ambush is loaded with AP or HE. Switching out the ammo type requires a move in a turn.

Keeping track of this can be fraught in a game already full of distractions. I designed these simple game aids which are reversible HE/AP Order dice holders; just expose the side with the appropriate ammo type and drop your order die into the recess. You only need to print a few but they will be handy to both the player using them and to their tabletop opponents.

They print equally well in resin and FDM; I included a pre-supported file for the resin print.

When printing in FDM please use supports for the build plate to ensure a crisp letter on the underside.
