🎯 Q1. What are tokens and markers in Infinity, and why do I need them?

Tokens/markers are small pieces you put on the table to track Orders, states (Prone, Unconscious, Camo, etc.), scoring mission objectives, and special effects. Infinity has a lot of changing states, and tokens are how you keep the game readable, legal, and fast at a glance. The official rules assume you’re using markers/tokens as visual reminders on the table.

❓ Q2. What’s the difference between a “token” and a “marker”?

In everyday play, people use the terms interchangeably. Rules-wise, a Marker is a specific rules label (like a Camouflaged marker or Impersonation marker) representing a trooper or piece of equipment instead of the miniature, while a Token is a general game aid used to show states, Orders, or objectives.

📝 Q3. Can I just write things down instead of using physical tokens?

Not really. The official rules expect game states to be represented with markers/tokens on the table so both players have perfect information (except where the game deliberately hides it, like Camo). Writing things down quickly becomes messy and slows the game; most organized events won’t allow you to replace tokens with scribbled notes.

📥 Q4. Can I download and print Infinity tokens for free?

Yes. Corvus Belli provides free PDFs of all official markers, tokens and templates on their website ; the Infinity Wiki explicitly links to these downloads. You can start with printed cardstock and upgrade to acrylic tokens or 3D markers later.

Many players start with these printables to learn the game, then upgrade to acrylic once they know they’re in for the long haul. Our tokens are beautiful, tough, and hold up to regular play.

🆕 Q5. I’m brand new – what is the minimum token set I need to play Infinity?

Most guides and tournament articles recommend, at a minimum:

• Regular Order tokens
  
• 1 - 2 Lieutenant Order tokens (depending on whether you have a Lieutenant with the +1 Order rule)
  
• 4 - 5 Command Tokens (depending on whether you have a Lieutenant with the +1 Command Token rule)
  
• Prone tokens
  
• Unconscious / Wound tokens
  
• Suppressive Fire tokens
  
• A way to mark Link Leaders / Fireteams (if you’re using them)
  

That covers most core rules in a standard game.

🎲 Q6. How many Order tokens do I need for a 300-point game?

A 300-point list usually has 7–10 Orders in its main combat group, plus a possible second group of 0-8. Looking at common token bundles and community advice, most players bring 10 Regular Order 1 tokens, 1-7 Regular Order 2, plus 1–4 Irregular, a few Impetuous and Tactical Awareness tokens to cover edge cases and different lists.

Check out our blog for more info on Order Groups!

⚖️ Q7. Do I need separate Order tokens for each combat group?

You don’t have to, but it makes life much easier. Many players use different colors or designs for Group 1 and Group 2 order pools, or they physically separate them in different trays/areas to avoid mixing them up.

📌 Q8. Which state tokens are used most often?

Across beginner guides and token sets, the most frequently used state tokens are:

• Prone
  
• Unconscious
  
• Wound / VITA tracking
  
• Suppressive Fire
  
• Targeted
  
• Immobilized (A/B)
  
• Stunned / Isolated
  

Prone and Unconscious are especially common – most players would agree the most important tokens after Orders.

👍 Q9. What tokens are “nice to have” but not mandatory for casual games?

For relaxed, non-ITS games you can improvise for some effects, but having dedicated tokens for things like Immobilized, Targeted, states and Supportware from Hacking programs, and ways to mark Objectives makes the game cleaner. Our bundles include these, so you don’t have to chase individual markers.

🎯 Q10. What tokens do I need for objectives and consoles?

Infinity missions often use consoles, tech-coffins, antennas, supply boxes, etc. The official downloads include flat objective markers, and many players upgrade to 3D objectives that match those footprints.

For a typical ITS game you’ll want at least 4–6 objective markers plus any mission-specific pieces (like Supply Boxes or Beacons).

♻️ How are Order tokens used during the game?

At the start of each player turn, you count the Orders you generate and place matching Order tokens in your Order Pool. When you spend an Order on a trooper, you move that token out of the pool (to a spent area or onto the trooper, depending on your habit) or flip the token if using a two-sided token like Warsena's. The Order system is central to Infinity, so clear, distinct Order tokens are important.

🧭 How do Command Tokens work, and how many do I need?

Each player gets 4-5 (depending on Lieutenant) Command Tokens per game. They’re used for strategic effects, such as limiting an opponent’s Orders, coordinating movement or attacks, or reforming Fireteams.

You only need four on the table, but some players like an extra one for Lieutenants with the +1 Command Token Skill. Core token sets typically include 5 Command tokens.

💤 How do I mark Prone, Unconscious, and dead troopers?

• Prone – Put a Prone token next to or under the model when it goes Prone.
  
• Unconscious – Place an Unconscious token.
  
• Dead – Most people remove the model and any tokens entirely.
  
  

🕵️ How do I use Camo and Marker states (Camouflage, Impersonation, Holoecho, Decoy)?

These states replace the model with a Marker. You place the correct Marker (e.g., Camo, IMP, Holoecho) on the table and move it instead of the miniature until the effect ends. There are detailed rules for how they interact with AROs and Line of Fire, but physically, it’s just swapping the model for the appropriate Marker token.

❤️ How do I track Wounds, NWI, Dogged and similar effects?

Common methods from guides and token sets:

• Place the Woundtoken beside the model on the appropriate side, based on the number of wounds it has taken.
  
• Use dedicated NWI / Dogged state tokens next to the model when those rules are activated.
  
• Use numbered wound dials or numbered tokens beside the base for multi-wound models.

👥 How do I mark Link Teams / Fireteams?

You typically place the correct Fireteam token next to the trooper designated as leader. The starter sets include at least one “Fireteam Leader” marker; some products add Fireteam: Core, Haris, Duo tokens, etc., to match current Fireteam rules. Some players can refer to this as a "Link-Leader"

🎯 How do I track objectives, classifieds and mission-specific effects?


ITS missions often benefit from dedicated tokens for objective control — including Player A/B markers, zone control markers, activated consoles, extracted supplies, deployed beacons, mission bonuses, and more. The ITS rules list the required objectives for each mission, and CB’s official token PDFs include matching markers; many acrylic sets also add mission icons for popular ITS seasons.

🛒 What’s the difference between cardboard, acrylic, magnetic, MDF and 3D tokens?

• Cardboard / paper – Free or cheap, easy to start with, but they wear out and can be hard to pick up.

• Acrylic – Durable, easy to see and handle, and the go-to for most long-term players, best appearance.

• Magnetic - Durable, easy to see and handle, easiest to pick up (round edges), stackable, and able to be organized on metal plates.

• MDF / wood – rugged, often engraved; sometimes less legible than color-printed acrylic.

• 3D tokens / mini-objectives – Great for immersion (consoles, crates, turrets), can require additional tokens for gameplay.

🏷️ Do I have to use “official” Corvus Belli tokens, or are third-party tokens allowed?

Rules don’t force you to use CB-branded tokens, only that the game information be clear and markers match the rules. The ITS document requires players to bring the necessary tools (templates, dice, operations deck, markers), but doesn’t ban third-party or custom tokens and often recommends partner products like Warsenal's.

In practice, TOs are fine with third-party acrylic sets as long as the icons and sizes are recognizable.

🏆 Are custom tokens tournament-legal in ITS games?

Yes, as long as they are clear, unambiguous, correctly sized, and don’t try to cheat hidden information. TOs may disallow designs that are confusing or deliberately misleading, but widely used acrylic sets are commonly seen at events. ITS rules focus on having required components present, not who made them.

📅 Are N3/N4 tokens still usable in N5?

Most “core” tokens – Orders, Command tokens, Prone, Unconscious, Wounds, common states – are still valid, because the underlying concepts didn’t vanish. However, newer editions add or rename some states and introduce things like Speedball and VITA tracking, so very old sets may be missing a few icons or use outdated art.

📏 What size should Infinity tokens be?

Most commercial Infinity token sets use 20–25mm round tokens for Orders and states, often matching miniature base sizes for readability. Reviews and product listings show 20–21mm as common for “compact” tokens, and 25mm for more legible, easier-to-handle tokens.

📦 Is it better to buy a huge “mega bundle”, smaller focused packs, or individual tokens?

• Mega/core bundles give you a one-and-done solution with the most common tokens in one purchase (Order, Command, core states, a few hack/mission markers).
  
• Smaller packs are great if you want a curated, easy-to-order solution, or you play a very specific style (e.g., heavy camo, hacking, or deployables).
  

Most new players are happiest starting with a core set or starter pack and then adding specialty packs once they know their faction and playstyle.

🎨 Should I buy faction-themed tokens or generic ones?

Faction-themed tokens look great and make it easy to keep your stuff separate at events. Generic sets are more flexible if you play multiple factions or share tokens. Many long-term players end up with one neutral core set + one or more thematic faction-branded order pools.

💣 How many Camo, Mine or Deployable tokens should I bring?

It depends on your faction, but looking at typical “core” and deployable sets, players often carry:

• 6–10 Camo markers (mix of S2 and larger bases)
  
• 4–6 Mine/Deployable tokens
  
• Extra if you play mine-heavy factions or lists (Shasvastii, Ariadna, etc.)
  

If you’re often running heavy Camo spam, having numbered and/or color-coded Camo markers is very handy.

🩹 How many Prone and Unconscious tokens do I really need?

Community consensus is that you use these constantly. New-player articles and token bundles typically include 8–15 Prone tokens and 8–12 Unconscious/Wound tokens, which is enough for a 300-point game without reusing them mid-turn.

🧪 Do I need hacking or special state tokens if my list doesn’t use Hackers?

Not immediately. If your meta rarely uses Hackers or if you’re learning the basics, you can skip deep hacking states at first. As soon as your group embraces hacking or more complex ITS missions, having proper tokens for states like Targeted, Immobilized, Isolated and Hacking programs makes gameplay much smoother.

📍 How many objective markers do I need for a full Infinity table?

For ITS play, one set of 6 objective markers plus some mission-specific pieces (Tech-Coffins, Supply Boxes, Beacons, Consoles) covers most scenarios. Many tournament packs and objective sets are built around that 6-objective standard.

🧹 How do I avoid clutter and keep tokens readable on the table?

Common community tricks:

• Represent statuses with magnetic status discs directly under models
  
• Use distinct colors and clear icons for different token types.
  
• Keep your Order pool and Command tokens on a separate tray or command board, away from the main table.
  
• Use double-sided tokens that combine effects instead of using multiple tokens.

🧳 What’s the best way to store and transport Infinity tokens?

Popular options you’ll see on forums and social media:

• Magnetic sheet in a metal case (magnetic tokens or acrylic tokens with glued-on magnets stick like minis).
  
• Compartment trays or bead boxes with labeled sections.
  
• Custom laser-cut token trays matched to order pools and frequently used states.
  

Pick a system you can reset quickly between rounds.

🧲 Are magnetic tokens worth it?

Magnetic tokens stick to trays and the underside of metal case lids, keeping things tidy in transit and making order pools easier to handle. The leading downside players mention is that they can attract each other or cling to the wrong surfaces or magnetized models if the magnets are too strong or the tray is crowded. However, some people enjoy their ability to hold together in a stack.

📋 Should I use an Order tray/command panel?

Many players love command boards that hold Order tokens, Command tokens, and sometimes order trackers. These keep your Order pool organized and free up table space. Third-party command panels are relatively common.

🔢 How can I color-code or number tokens for hidden information (Camo, Mines, Decoys)?

Common solutions from token tools and forum discussions:

• Use numbered or lettered Camo and Mine markers so you secretly associate each number with a specific unit.
  
• Use different colors or patterns for different marker groups (e.g., green camo = Mimatism -3, blue camo = Mimatism -6).
  
• Keep a matching reference on your list or a small note only you can see.
  

This keeps information hidden but still within the rules.

✅ Are these tokens compatible with the latest Infinity edition and ITS seasons?

Yes. These tokens are designed to match the current Infinity iconography, states and mission needs. Core order/state tokens remain valid across editions, and we update or add new designs as Corvus Belli releases new rules, states or ITS missions.

🧩 Do these tokens use official Infinity icons and terminology?

They are based on the official Infinity iconography and names so they’re immediately recognizable to Infinity players and tournament organizers. This keeps them intuitive for anyone who already knows the game or has used the free CB PDFs.

➕ Can I buy extra of certain token types (like more Regular Orders or Prone tokens)?

Many players eventually want plenty of a few high-use tokens (Prone, Unconscious, Camo, Mines). Offering add-on packs or letting customers buy individual token bundles is very helpful for tailoring their set to specific factions or playstyles.

🧲 Are these tokens double-sided, numbered or magnet-ready?

Warsenal tokens possess allthe Common quality-of-life features people search for:

• Double-sided to reduce clutter, the overall number of tokens, and make them able to represent multiple states.
  
• Numbered Camo/Mine markers for hidden info.
  
• Magnet-ready (flat backs, consistent size) for people who want to glue magnets on.

• Tool-Tips featuring relivant stats and important rules reminders

♟️ Will these tokens work for CodeOne / smaller intro games as well?

While CodeOne is no longer an officially promoted way to play, it used a subset of Infinity’s full rules, so the core Order/Command/Prone/Unconscious tokens work perfectly. If you started in CodeOne and later moved to full Infinity N5, you can keep using the same token set and add the more specialized markers over time.

🆕 I’m new to Warsenal—what should I order first for my store?

Start with a small but comprehensive place to start:

• Starter token bundles that cover Orders, Command tokens, Prone, Unconscious, and a few common states.
  
• A core order pool set (Regular/Irregular/Impetuous Orders) that works for any faction.
  
• One or two “eye-catching” token or objective sets that look great on a peg or in a display case.
  
  That mix lets a brand-new Infinity player walk out with everything they need, while giving existing players something premium to upgrade to.
  
  

🎯 What are the must-have Infinity token sets for retail shelves?

In most communities, the best-performing SKUs are:

• Core order pools – Regular, Irregular, Impetuous, Lieutenant, Command.
  
• Basic state markers – Prone, Unconscious/Wounds, Suppressive Fire, Targeted.
  
• Objective/mission markers – generic objectives, consoles, crates, supply boxes.
  
  These pieces are “evergreen”—they sell regardless of faction and remain relevant across editions and ITS seasons.
  
  

📦 How many of each token set should I stock to start?

For a first order, a good rule of thumb is:

• 2–4 copies of your main starter Set.
  
• 1-2 copies of the N5 Bundle
  
• 1–2 copies of specialty sets (camo, deployables, objective packs) depending on demand.
  
  If your Infinity community is already active, lean toward the higher end of that range; if the game is new to your store, start lighter and reorder based on what moves.

👥 How should I choose token sets for my local Infinity meta?

Ask which factions and formats your players run most:

• Lots of camo-heavy armies (Ariadna, Shasvastii, Hassassins)? Stock extra camo and mine/deployable markers.
  
• Tag- and heavy-armor-loving metas? Make sure you have solid wound/VITA tracking and order pools.
  
• ITS-focused groups? Carry objective markers, classifieds-friendly tokens, and clean order/command sets.
  
  You can always start with a generic core mix, then tune future orders after a few events or league nights.
  
  

🧱 Should I order more starter bundles or more small, specialized packs?

For stores, starter bundles usually sell best as the first touchpoint—they’re easier to recommend and easier for new players to understand. Once your regulars are set up, specialized packs (camo, hacking, deployables, objectives) become good add-ons and impulse buys. A healthy shelf has:

• 1–2 clear “Start Here” products, and
  
• A handful of “Upgrade/Expand” options for existing players.
  
  

🏆 What should I order if I’m supporting an Infinity event or league?

If you’re hosting an Infinity tournament or league, consider:

• Extra core token sets for new or returning players who show up under-equipped.
  
• Custome Event Markers to use as prize support.
  
• One or two ITS Sets (objectives, special markers) tied to the event’s missions.
  
  That way, your order both supports the event and seeds future sales, since people like to buy the same pieces they just played with.

🪟 How should I display Infinity tokens in-store to help them sell?

Tokens perform best when they’re clearly connected to the game they support:

• Place them near Infinity minis or terrain, not in a random accessories bin.
  
• Use a small shelf talker or sign: “New to Infinity? Start here—tokens you need for every game.”
  
• Keep some of our free giveaways handy so customers can see the color and quality and have an example.
  
  A clear “this is what you need for this game” presentation almost always outperforms a generic accessories wall.
  

🔁 How do I know when to reorder Infinity tokens?

The simplest approach is to treat your core token sets like dice and tape measures:

• Set a minimum shelf quantity (for example, always keep at least 2 of each core bundle).
  
• When you hit that minimum, drop in a small restock that tops up your best movers and adds 1–2 new SKUs to test.
  
  Over time, you’ll see which sets are true staples for your community and can build your standing orders around those.
