Token Replacement

By Hutcher, in General Discussion

Hey all,

I recently had some components damaged in an accident, and I gather that FFG doesn't replace these. So I figured I'd reach out to those on the forum here to see if they had any ideas.

Focus Tokens: Was thinking I'd replace these with the FFG yellow/gold disc markers

Omen Tracker: I have a few thoughts here; was thinking a circular plastic or glass marker of the appropriate size

Ship/Train travel tickets: These ones have me stumped. Really not sure what I might replace these with, to be honest

Please let me know if anyone has replaced/upgraded their ship or train travel tokens, and with what. Need some suggestions on these.

Thanks everyone!

Just my two cents but...

1) Focus: Yeah, the yellow / gold tokens would work very well

2) Omen Track: Your idea again would be awesome, but if you look through some forums you'll find some pretty awesome custom jobs.

3) Ship / Train tickets: You could either scan in the originals and print them off, or simply look up some 1920/1930 actual tickets. Full scale tickets might be fun!!

There is another, more expensive, option...

Litko! I should have thought of that.... Thanks for the idea. Unfortunately, they don't make travel tickets, but I was considering something like custom printing my own anyway.

Thanks again!

Despite what they might post on their public page, FFG actually has incredible customer service, so I would recommend contacting them. I have seen them replace cards, tokens, and even an entire board, unasked.

Thanks guys! I appreciate the link to the BGG tickets. I do have a request in with FFG, but still waiting to hear back definitively on that.

As for focus tokens - do you know anyone who plays x-wing? If you do they probably have a ton of spare focus tokens that look fine. They have a green eye printed, check in google images. Hell I could give you like 20 of them for free but it is a longshot that you live in Warsaw ;)

Good thinking! I am actually a big Xwing player, so I have a million of the cardboard green focus tokens. Those will make an excellent replacement!

expected FFG to be to be just like basically any other company, but was told by members of the forum to request the travel tokens as a replacement, and yes they sure did. also replaced my girlfriends Game of Thrones board game cards that got soaking wet when her car was broken into.

Stop eating your tokens!

They are not candy!

No, I don't care if it's what all the other Elder Things do! If they jumped off a ziggurat, would you do it too?

Have you tried contacting FFG? I've read multiple stories from all different game forums that FFG replaced their lost/damaged tokens. As long as the game is not OOP, I think you have a good chance getting your tokens replaced.
