Counters for ships in physical booster packs are in the Attack product that they support. So for Boosters 1, 2, & 3, the counters are in Klingon Border, for example. You can buy the countersheets as spare parts from ADB's mail order department.

There is also the Megahex counter product which has lots of 1" size counters for all Empires.

The electronic booster packs sold through e23 come with print-out-yourself countersheets, or you could buy physical counters as spare parts.

Sorry to necro this thread, but it seemed the most appropriate for my question, in preference to starting a new thread.

I've just bought Boosters 31, 32 and 33 for Transports Attacked, and as most people know, Transports Attacked didn't come with its own countersheet; instead, the counters for the Attack module were included with Hydran Attack.

So where, then, do we find the counters for these three Boosters, please? And, if they have not already been published, will they be in a future product like Reinforcements Attack?

In order to provide a great selection of new ships, and fill in blanks for the newer empires (e.g. the ISC tug and LTT), the decision was made to provide the ships even without counters. I know of no plan to provide counters for them yet.

Reinforcements could provide 1/2" counters for the ships, but all 1" counters are already spoken for. (There are 40 1" counters and 40 new ships. So, I think the math should be obvious.) I would expect to at least see 1/2" counters done.

We will include half inch ones for B31, 32, 33 in reinforcements attack but there aren't any spare one inch ones in that product.

Providing the 1/2" counters for the new ships in those boosters in Reinforcements Attack would be appreciated. Thanks.

It would indeed, thanks :). The other thing is that, to be going on with, I see that there are 1" counter images on the back of the Booster covers which can be scanned in if necessary.

Alternatively, could you please knock up a downloadable counter set for a Customer Service Wednesday?

And I agree with Mike; it certainly is a great selection of ships )
