Anyone fancy a game of credit token TWISTER?
I have printed and cut a new set of credit tokens, using the new lay-out but during the game I quickly realized the current division isn't the best option.
1. DIGIT DIVISION
In the beginning of the game we quickly run out of '5'-s. Also the 40's weren't this great.
We discussed this subject and concluded that the best division would be the current Euro-division of 1.2.5.
(this division was developed by the Harrapan/Indus Civilzation by the way).
The euro-system uses coins of
1 - 2 - 5 cents
10 - 20 - 50 cents
1 - 2 - 5 euros
10 - 20 - 50 euro
10 - 200 - 500 euro
This is not just a random system, but statics says thay whenever paying a random price the least amount of coins will go from hand to hand and therefore is the most economic system possible.

and Harrapan Mathematics here:

we suggest to remove the 40-credit-tokens to be replace by 50 credit tokens.
2. AMOUNT DIVISION
the amount of 5's have to be increased
3. AMOUNT OF TOKENS
Currently I have used this printsheet. A sinle printsheet to use for both sides as it symmetrical. I will recreate a new printsheet for this.
I've used three double sides sheets for 9 players. So six double sheets are needed for 18 players.
4. SIZE
Right now, the size is the exact size of a ship squared. Does anyone agree this to be a good size? or is smaller preferable?
5. ADDITIONAL
One of the players came up with a suggestion to create seperate credit tokens with a different background color (let's say grey or black) to indicate you received these from Written Record or Monument.
THis makes it clearer to see where you got them from. I will see if I can implement this efficiently otherwise they won't be in for this reason.
