War Rake???

[stroutqb22]

I’m not even sure if it’s actually called a war rake , but does anyone know where I could get one or how to make one?

I made this topic in General discussion about a year ago…

War Rake is correct, and it’s also famously called a Croupier Stick.

Thanks. Do you know were I can get one?

Look for gambling supplies. If it’s what I think it is, roulette table oprators use it to push and pull chips from the different lines on the table.

And if you wanted to make one, you probably wouldn’t need anything more complicated than a long wooden dowel, a small rectangle of balsa wood, a drill (or knife) to make a hole in the balsa wood for the dowel, some glue to assemble the two pieces, and a bit of paint to make it look nice once the glue is dry.

I think I might make a few for my table.  They seem pretty easy to make, and I will detail the process for any interested.

I thought about having a “war shovel” or even a flat/ramp side to the rakes to help scoop/carry units from combat zones to the combat resolution area of the board.  It wouldn’t always be useful for the crowded europe territorites but if designed well could be handy.
