Clearly, the VP tokens must be what you get from destroying the Death Star with a Scout (maybe this expansion will allow for Wookies to also get VP tokens, instead of just humans).
As for the landmarks, well, landmarks keep you from getting lost. Therefore, once you have a Landmark, the Lose Track rule will no longer apply. Without losing track of themselves, people won't have to ask Jar Jar for directions, thereby allowing him to be permanently written out of the plot and greatly improving Episodes I-III.
Two of the greatest outrages in Star Wars history have now been fixed. Thanks, DXV!
