Exactly my point. and if your gaming group includes players with any
special needs in regards to the counters, for example color-blind, you
can tailor the counters to work for them.
  Untrained = Yellow Circle
  Green = Green Bar
  Regular = Blue Triangle
  Veteran = Orange Square
  Elite = Red Pentagon
(I tried to match the color to a number, more sides - higher value)

And I'm sure many other suitable variations. the only requirement is
that everyone at the table know what each type of marker means. with
some skill, more than I have, it may appear as if there are no markers
on the tale at all.
