I have played a wargame called "across five aprils". It is set during
the american civil war. In this game, there is one counter for each
group (usually 2-5 counters...) and two extra counters. The extra ones
are a union flag, and a confederate flag. A group moves when it's
counter is drawn. Combat for both sides occures when that side's flag
counter is drawn. That means you can only attack at that moment.
I found this system to really add to the anticipation. You hope you can
move all of your units into position before the flag counter comes up!
(almost never does...:))
