Hello again,
I do have a question about replacement effects like in Chatterfang, Squirrel General, Xorn and Academy Manufactor.
Other threads in this forum suggest that having xorn + academy manufactor on the field can result in getting 2 tokens of each type (clue, food and treasure).
Is it correct that if that player has in addition Chatterfang on the field, then that player also creates 6 squirrel tokens?
Replacement effects are applied in the order chosen by the controller (or owner if there is no controller) of the affected object (control change and copy effects take precedent, though, but there are none here). The 3 effects here leave you with 6 possible orders. If from those possible orders you choose Xorn, then Manufactor, then Chaterfang, you will indeded get 2 Food, 2 Treasures, 2 Clues, and 6 Squirrels for any event creating a Food, Treasure, or Clue.

Rezzahan made a slight error here:
If you have an initial Treasure creating effect, you indeed get a total of 12 tokens when applying the replacement effects optimally.
However, if you have an initial Clue or Food creating effect, you can only get a max of 8 tokens: 2 Treasure, 1 Clue, 1 Food & 4 Squirrels. In this situation, Xorn's effect cannot apply until after Manufactor's effect is applied first.
