I picked up some of the rubber id rings that I had seen my HC players use. They work great as replacements for the batting order clips. Especially since I have my play mats in 16" x 20" poster frames ($6 at WM). The rubber id rings keep the figs from sliding on the plastic covered board.

I thought about using those, since I use them for HC also. If you laminate your diamond (about $3.00 at Office max), it prevents the figs from sliding as much.

Some issues I came up with, in regards to the id rings, though:

How do you keep track of the batting order, and how do you tell who batted last?

I am glad to hear that there is an alternative to the rings that come with the set becuase they stink. I am sure that they could have designed something better. Everytime that I need to add or subtract a click of performance, I must remove the ring and put it back on.

Do these other rings stay on better?? Where did you get them and how much are they?

also, to keep track, just have a piece of paper and write down who batted last.

The best is .Use Score card to keep track your battring order.

I use a baseball scorecard (baseballscorecard.com) to keep track of my batting order and stats.

I imagine these rings will help the figures stick to a laminated field as well. They are made from a soft/tacky rubber (id-rings.com).

hey guys just a thought why not just take a perminite marker to the ring and mark em 1-9 oh and they cost about 3 dollars for a pack of 5 rings so they're not bad.

Do these rings interfere with clicking the player at all? It doens't seem that way but just wanted to be sure before I buy them.

I kind of like the idea. Mark the rings 1-9, then you could remove the ring when a figure makes the last out.

I actually like the clips, but some of them refuse to stay on if you breathe on the figure funny....wait, that didn't come out right. ;)

i will also use Id rings they are awesome!!!!!!!!

Yup[ the ones in the set stink but the others are good and I will Number them 1-9 and keep track of batting order on paper

Wizkids take note please dump the scuzzy rings for better ones

Thank you

No. They actually make it easier to click the figure since the base is easier to grip.

does the ring block any stats such as the spray chart?

No. They fit perfectly on my figs.
