Ready and exhausted
Every tile has two faces. Taking an action turns it over; it comes back at your Refresh. The number is the tile's Move value — an ✕ means the tile has no Move value at all.

A unit standing on the central Control Point may exhaust to claim this token. Claiming your second token wins the game immediately.
A claimed token works like a universal action tile — once. It arrives exhausted, readies at your next Refresh, and after being spent it never readies again (but still counts toward victory).
A fresh token appears at the center the moment one is claimed.
