I use a 1" square wooden, with 3 fighters mounted on pins
stuck into it. Behind the fighters, I've blue-tacked a small
sheet of paper, with two number tracks on it:

	 123 01
	 456 23

Into each track, I stick a pin (I use map marker pins, the
type with big colourful knobs on the end). The left hand track
marks the number of fighters, and the right hand track the
number of endurance turns left. As fighters get destroyed/fight
you just move the pins down the track.
