So there's no official rule to them? Just personal reference?
As far as I’m aware. In the era of smartphones where smartphones are only a smartphone away it makes more sense to take a picture, but numbers would be the best old school way to pack up a game.
I've seen them used for minefields, artillery targeting, and hidden infantry. All cases where putting a marker on the map would give it away.
Handy for playing remotely in the old days, like sending chess moves to each other E2-E4
