SFB counters and colour coding

Rich Stokes · Post by **Rich Stokes** » Tue Jul 26, 2011 7:27 pm

Hi guys!

I recently bought a huge collection of SFB stuff on ebay, and it came with a great many cardboard counters which are all mixed up. I'm trying to sort them out and while it's fairly obvious who all the "main" races are (basically the Alpha Octant empires) there are a whole bunch I don't recognise.

Is there a master chart of all the colour combinations used for counters, ship colours and backgrounds? I think that the ones with a circle around them are Omega empires, but a some help would really be appreciated.

Thanks,

Rich

SFB Annex 7A also lists all the counter colors.

Except that there is no Annex #7A in the Omega Master Rulebook or in Module E2...

(There is in Module C5, though.)
