Editing Materials

Some [[Sets|Dominion sets]], in addition to [[card|cards]], provide other materials.

== Player mats ==
'''Player mats''' ('''playmats''' or '''mats''' for short) are pieces of cardboard used by certain cards to set aside resources for future use. {{Card|Island}} sets aside cards on a mat until the end of the game. {{Card|Pirate Ship}} and {{Card|Trade Route}} set aside [[#Tokens|Tokens]] on a mat to keep track of {{Cost}} they generate when played. {{Card|Native Village}} sets cards aside to be drawn later. Cards that produce {{VP}} tokens put them on a mat to be scored at the end of the game. The '''Tavern mat''' is a place to keep your [[Reserve]] cards until you call them.

== Tokens ==
A '''token''' is a metal piece used in Dominion. They are used by a number of cards to keep track of numbers. {{Card|Embargo}} has its own set of tokens to mark Embargoed cards. {{Card|Trade Route}} and {{Card|Pirate Ship}} share the same design of token, used to keep track of {{Cost}} they generate when played. {{Card|Monument}}, {{Card|Goons}} and {{Card|Bishop}} all refer to VP tokens, which grant points at the end of the game to whoever has them.

=== [[victory token|Victory tokens]] ===
Victory tokens (or VP tokens, denoted by the symbol {{VP}}) are featured in the [[Prosperity]] and [[Empires]] sets, and are an example of [[alternate victory points|alt-VP]]. These are chips that players may earn by playing certain cards, buying certain [[Event]]s, or meeting the conditions of certain [[Landmark]]s.

=== [[coin token|Coin tokens]] ===
Coin tokens are a feature of the [[Guilds]] set. These tokens can be taken by playing certain cards.
* With {{Card|Candlestick Maker}} and {{Card|Baker}} the player takes one Coin token per time the card is played;
* With {{Card|Plaza}} the player may discard one treasure card to taken a Coin token;
* With {{Card|Merchant Guild}} the player takes one Coin token per bought card for every Merchant Guild in play;
* With {{Card|Butcher}} the player takes two Coin tokens per play. The player can also spend Coin tokens to gain a more expensive card.

Tokens of the same design are used for {{Card|Pirate Ship}} and {{Card|Trade Route}}, but should not be mixed up.

=== [[Embargo tokens]] ===
Embargo tokens are a feature of the [[Seaside]] set.  These tokens are placed on a [[supply|supply]] pile when an {{Card|Embargo}} card is played.  An Embargo token adds a penalty to a supply pile—whoever buys a card from that pile gains a {{Card|Curse}}.

=== [[Adventures tokens]] ===
[[Adventures]] comes with 10 different tokens, a set in each of 6 player colors.  They are made of cardboard, in contrast to the other tokens, which are made of metal.  Some provide a [[vanilla]] bonus for Action card Supply piles they're on, others act as penalties, and the rest have a variety of effects.  They are used by several different cards and [[Event|Events]].

=== [[Debt|Debt tokens]] ===
Debt tokens (denoted by the symbol {{Debt}}) are a feature of [[Empires]], and provide an alternate cost to certain cards and Events.  When buying a card or Event with a {{Debt}} [[cost]], the player takes the specified number of Debt tokens, as well as paying any additional cost.  While in Debt, players may not buy any cards or Events.  {{Debt}} may be paid off at any time during a player's Buy phase after finishing playing [[Treasure]]s (or spending Coin tokens), at a rate of {{Cost|1}} for {{Debt|1}}.  One card ({{Card|Capital}}), one Event ({{Event|Tax}}), and one Landmark ({{Landmark|Mountain Pass}}) provide additional ways to accumulate {{Debt}}.
