Preferrably in Silhouette values - for now, only Civillians (using standard S2 human-sized models) and the Dropship (for which there is a dedicated model) are defined, if memory serves me.

We were having an "Investigate Alien Artifact" game, Corregidor on Corregidor. Using the Micro Arts' reisin Alien Artifact model (which is somewhat see-through...), mounted to a 40mm base.
And we had first a na S2 Bandit trying to get a Total cover from a rooftop-posted Intruder behind it.
Then, S6 McMurrough trying to hide from a S6 Gecko.
And we had to assume the Alien Artifact is S6 too, for otherwise the Dog Warrior wouldn't be able to get Cover at all...
Not to mention - we do have a handful of objective markers, made / bought back in the days of Campaign Paradiso. Which tended to define them somewhat (though not to the level of Silhouettes). We miss some that would be useful for 20x20... but I keep from getting them bought / made, for I don't really know how big should these be.
As for people not having proper-sized markers... wouldn't it be possible to make printable markers with proper graphics? Print & cut them, glue them onto cardboard, glue that upright onto a spare base, voila! (or even, if you're not that cheap - go to a laser-cutting service and have them cut and etched in acrylic!).
I'm not a computer graphics guy myself, but I guess it wouldn't be that difficult to find one that would get the job done. Could ever find one myself - provided you tell us how big should each objective marker be...
