You don't have to use the tokens from the booster packs. You can use pretty much anything to represent tokens. Other popular options are dice and coins.

The 'cats as tokens' is an old joke that always shows up when discussing this. Don't take it as personal against you.

we just did

we recommend kitten as tokens, and then someone else counters with possible ways how that is wrong

my contribution is that kittens tend to wander off the table or randomly tap
then the judge will issue a warning for failure to maintain game state!!


I personally like to use unsleeved face down land cards with counters on it for P/T
