Those who were at the con saw my solution: glue 6 earring posts to
either
a GeoHex fighter stand (with the pegs removed) or a washer of the same
size. Glue an earring back to the bottom of each fighter. This allows
you to position the fighters at different heights and, more importantly,
remove fighters from the stand when they've been destroyed - no extra
die
needed.
