1 of 1. Avery 5408. I found these to be useful for marking entry and exit spots into a territory and for marking a disputed territory once all blocks are taken to the battleboard. Especially useful in solo-play. I printed the images on Avery 5408 label paper [ 0.75 IN circles ] available at any office-supply store.
