you could maybe do some timing with ticks to incorporate a countdown. Thats all I can think of

This is probably right. You could have certain turtles correspond to a certain tick number so that way when it hits a certain tick a turtle will draw a certain number out. That's what I'd do at least.

Thanks. I'll try that.

It may be difficult but you could try to design turtles that resemble these numbers, and then command them to show up one at a time as a countdown.

That's possible too.

another option would be to use the wait command.

I don't know how to show a number in netlogo. But in my opinion, you can create a small colored patch with "tick". For each tick, the opacity of the shape will run from 128 to 0 (0 means time's up)
