Talk:Chit (board wargames)

message: Why is the term "chit" used here when the illustrations show "counters"?  A chit is a type of counter, used in draws.  This article seems poorly researched.Michael Dorosh 16:13, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

text: I considered counter and chit to be synonyms. I just checked several online dictionaries and gaming glossaries and none made the distinction you make. I did see from Board Game Geek that "hex and counter" is used most often, with "chit" typically referring to microgames. I like your changes; thanks for making them. --Jeffrey Henning 17:59, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I guess we'll see if it flies.  My distinctions may not be "official" but it how I have come to understand the terms.  I have seen "chit" used for "counter" but the latter seems to have become the most widely used. Good idea for an article and good grab on the images.Michael Dorosh 19:01, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

message: I remember reading D and D rules years ago that said you could draw chits instead of rolling dice and the chit fund article
suggests that this is just a term for a piece of paper. --24.94.191.191 23:29, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.
