I'm planning an order from Litko Aero, and I'd like some opinions on how many blast markers should suffice for an average game.  I was thinking of ordering thirty;  does that sound like too many, not enough, or just right?

Thanks!

25-30 sounds about right to me. I would be tempted to order 50, though, so my opponent could use them too.

It can get confusing when my opponent uses different things as BMs than I do, and then has a third thing to keep track of void shields or DC count.

Do they come in different sizes?

We play with two sizes of Blast markers, one to designate "1"s and the other to designate "5"s; with Orks mobs and big IG formations a lot of Blast markers are required on occasion.

Yes, they have three sizes. So you could do '1's, '5's and '10's if you were so inclined.

I forgot all about these!  Went and made an order for a few and a few of those little skulls too (perfect for keeping track of assault casualties).

Thanks for the reminder.  :)

I ordered 4 small packs (4*7 = 28) and 2 large packs for '5's (2*3 = 6) and I have yet to run out.
