I want to buy plastic tokens or something for the guys I play with, need a good deal?

:D Could some one help me with suggestions for numbers for each player and the best prices?

I play with 6 people and I am not sure I can afford a full set for every one, I really want to do something nice what should I get?

I am not set on tokens, just want it to be something for the game.

If you have access to a color printer, you could make custom pilot cards with their name or callsign on it. Same point value and trait as their favorite pilot, or something like that.

In my opinion the best deal on tokens is Greenman Designs. You can select the number of each token you want and the color to mix and match as needed. They also have customized template text options. However, I suspect their array of token and template options will expand soon - once all thier kickstarter orders are processed since they wouldn't want to undercut backers by shipping the new options before they are in their hands.

cheapest price you can get, great quality, but will take about 4-5 weeks to get you...unless you live in Poland:

( I got 30 of the shield tokens for less than a new ship)

all that being said most of my tokens are from Greenman...I just bought 4 Ion and 8 stress and it was ~$11 with shipping.
AND I threw $40 at his kickstarter ;)

If you're in the UK then Cog'o'two make great tokens and templates at cheap prices

They're not particularly cheap (especially if you're in the UK like me and need to take shipping + VAT / Import Duty charges into account), but Team Covenant do some lovely tokens now...

Currently waiting for mine to arrive.

Still wouldn't be all that cheap, but the little divide range rulers are cool and most template makers are selling them now, and it would add something rather than replacing a thing they already have.
