Showing off my new tokens
Just wanted to write a quick post and show off the AToE tokens I've been working on.

Real busy today so cant post the full story - I think I mentioned it in my thread in the welcome forum.

Ultra short version:
I own a printing and design company.
Love AToE.
Hate the double sided tokens and how finding the right ones for the Villain you're fighting takes forever.
Decided to make new ones, one set of tokens for each villain, so to fight the Banshee, pull out the Banshee's bag and everything you need is in there.
Also, real-world tokens for the web download villains.

Below: Krampus tokens on the left, two of my new minion tokens in the middle, and two of the originals on the right for comparison. My tokens are a bit thicker which drives the OCD in me crazy, but it would have taken 2 weeks to get in stuff that was the right thickness. Zombie03

They are laser cut 1/8" (FFP tokens are 3/16") black acrylic with permanent vinyl decals. Later this year I should be getting a printer that allows direct printing to the acrylic - really speed up the process.

They are printed on glossy vinyl. Its not AS shiny, but as they are complete replacements, it doesn't matter if they are just as shiny as the cardboard ones.

Very nice! Can you write the cost off as a business expense somehow? Zombie03

OMG my fingers hurt. Did 5 villains worth tonight, one being the vampire who for some absurd reason needs 4 different minions. 11 minion types, x8 each, x2 sides = 172 stickers applied.

Who told me this was a good idea? Zombie17

Sighing like the night wind and sobbing like the rain,—
Wailing for the lost one that comes not again:
