jaif Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 http://newbiedm.com/2008/11/22/newbiedm-tutorial-counters-tokens-or-pogs/ Very useful looking tutorial on how to make your own tokens from web images using free software, a printer, and craft supplies. Very promising to my eyes if you are a pen & paper gamer who doesn't want to spend tons of cash on minis. -Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delmar Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 With the cost of minis ever-increasing, home-made tokens are certainly the way to go. Many of the packaged adventures come with tokens and the pre-packaged token sets, while still more expensive than home-made tokens, are pretty handy. Thanks for the post.

Imm0rtal Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 For D&D, the new monster manuals come with tokens for each monster in the book, with a picture of the token by the monster entry to make it easy to see. For those familiar with 4th Ed. monsters that are minions they give you several tokens but solo monsters for example, they only give you one. I have the new MM and I like it. I still mostly use minis since I have a big toolbox full. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delmar Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I usually use minis and have grown accustomed to them, however, tokens have alot to offer. Tokens are cheaper, of course. Which makes it easier to get more tokens than minis for the same price. I wouldn't mind using just tokens and maybe I'll end up moving in that direction. I give credit to Wizards of the Coast for their new packaging model regarding tokens (not just for use instead of minis, but for spell effects, conditions and a host of other cool things) and monster cards (which have all of the necessary information for monsters in one place).

Tao Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Necro! magnetic markers: http://www.aleatools.com/ I've been using these in my home games for over a couple of years now and they are amazing. Cheap, durable, retain their magnetizm well, and look great on the board. I hope this might help someone out who is looking for a great way to track conditions in any RPG system.
