Brimstone cards, red tokens questions

[Canis Lupus]

First question, what are some tips for completing brimstone cards. They appear quite intimidating and I don't want to start a mission, just survive the brimstone mission and then fail and lose 40 minutes worth of progress.

Second question (slightly related) what tokens do I keep despite failing a quest overall? Like, for example, if I finish a brimstone card and get the red token, and then fail the mission overall. Do I still get the rewards for that card? Or do I lost them? How about companions, regular cards etc...?

Third question- I see red tokens on some weapons, how do I obtain them?

Thanks for any replies

-I usually just take Brimstone on easy challenges, that I've already finished. No need to risk, when you are going for gold token on mission itself.

-You keep all tokens. If you started challenge just to get one, you can simply forfeit after getting it.

-Open weapon description (default middle mouse button).

I don't know about 2 or 3, but my suggestion for one is enter it to do a trial run, figure out what you need, then build your deck and challenge around that. EG if you need tons of food, add food cards, or if you need to lose less life add a equipment that reduces pain cards.

Once you've found (or used the supply card once... meh) the weapons with tokens on them during a challenge, you can look the descriptions to see what they need (and the progress you've made towards unlocking them). You can then check the description when choosing them for your deck. Just got to get rid of the question mark first.

Awesome thanks for the help guys (even answered a question that I forgot to ask in regards to just forfeiting)

Another thing. Once you've inspected an item with a question mark during a challenge (you do not need to actually obtain the item), you can forfeit if you wish. The game will remember that you now know what that card does.
