At the bare minimum, you need one token each for the following: - Touchdown marker - Team Re-Roll marker - Turn marker Depending on the pitch & dugout set you're playing with, you may also be keeping track of the half of the game you're playing in. The balls are mostly redundant unless you want to play with the special ball rules (and some teams are encouraged to do so). The coins can be used for the opening coin toss, but I'd advise against it because they're not weighted properly. My group just uses them as additional tokens.
The balls are more for show, the new season comes with a ball token that sits under a base. Most people use a poker chip. The coins are usually used for Touchdowns, Re-Rolls and Turn Markers, found on the dugouts. Most people just roll off instead of flipping the coins. You can use the balls, and some of them come with special rules, usually found in the spike magazine, but they're small and fiddly, so better to drill a hole in a poker chip for the ones with pegs, and glue it in to represent the ball if you want to. Edit: Just read Chapter Aquilas reply, much more elegant.
Thanks for answer. So if I understand it correctly, I could use those coins as turn & reroll markers. I would say that hand with ball is touchdown token, but looking at snotling box I have at home, there is none, so I am a bit confused. Is it possible to just use ball on small base as touchdown token?
You can use extra dice, the ball glued to a small base, coins or anything you like. I assume the little mushroom troll tokens from the snotling box you're using for something else? Possibly as trolls? They're the same kind of tokens as the little hands. As long as you're keeping track somehow most opponents don't mind what you use to mark the turns, touchdowns, or Re-Rolls.
Absolutely, and I would totally use those mushroom troll tokens as trolls, save you about $100 on trolls, get a couple of 32-40 mm bases and glue them on, if you have extra bits to make legs, or at least to prop them up higher, even better
I'll keep that in mind when I build them in the future. But right now, plan is to make one or two teams (snotlings for fun and UGNI ratmen for play) just for the display cabinet, but ready to play if situation arise. That is why I would like to have tokens ready.
