Additional tokens

[flamespeak]

Hey, is there anyway I can get some more tokens for damage and such without having to drop cash on a whole new game set?

When playing Druid vs Necromancer on 3 separate occasions me and my gaming bro have had to start using other tokens like veteran tokens and melee plus 1 tokens to represent damage and it got a little wacky. It was going pretty well each game until I activated the Altar of Skulls and everything kept taking damage left and right.

I find it kind of funny how we were tripping over slam tokens, burn tokens, and the like but the damage and mana tokens were in really short supply in late game sessions.

What do you guys use when you run out of tokens?

Here is a third party solution that I use...

We can also use some extra mana token.  I'm glad they didn't include another iniative maker in fif. Got too many of those already.

my current solution is to put just one marker on a creature and then use a dice on top of the marker to represent how many there are. This works for all of the condition markers (we run out of Weak quite often). I plan on buying a set of red d6 to simply represent damage by themselves and not use the damage markers at all.

I agree - more mana tokens are needed especially in multiplayer games.  We have three complete core sets through the current expansions and still run short on mana.

I switched to dice some months ago. It is way better and easier.

I like the dice idea a lot - I'm surprised we never thought of this before

Dice is the rout I have gone as well. I like the look of the tokens so I purchased swirled d6's that keep to the same color scheme.

Here is also a pretty good site if you want to get into custom tokens and such...

I like these a lot, a friend of mine makes them. I am trying to get him to add in some purple ones for mana on Mage Wars Set.

When we are playing casually and not filming matches for Arcane Duels, we use dice for everything except contition markers.We have sets of red dice to represent damage, and sets of Purple dice to represent Channeling.

@flamespeak: I'm guessing you and your opponent are both extremely defensive players. Try mixing things up with an aggressive warlock or Beastmaster book. The game suddenly becomes much faster.

Actually the problem arises when we play 2v2, 1v1v1, or 1v1v1v1.  So many mages and their channeling objects we tend to start running out.  Aggressive players that make their move too early often find themselves ganged up and dead.  Tactics are very different in games other than 1v1.
