Odd Booster Pack Question

Post by tcabril »

Do the Booster Packs just come with the laminated ship cards or do they have counters as well?
Its not really clear (or at least to me).

Just curious if they don't have counters - what do you do beside just proxy the counter which I am not a fan of...

They do not include counters. (I thought it was clear they don't, but I'll go take another look at the listings.)

The counters are included in the associated product. Thus, the counters for boosters 1-3 are in Klingon Border, the counters for 4-6 are in Klingon Attack.

Judging from your previous post, you have ordered Klingon Border, but not yet received it.

Klingon Border includes multiple counters for most of the ships in the game, even though there is only one copy of each ship card in the Klingon Border set.
If however; you were to purchase Boosters 1, 2, and 3 along with Klingon Border... then you would have a counter to match every ship card in both KB and Boosters 1,2, and 3.

I hope that helps clarify the contents without making it even more confused...

I did receive my Klingon Border set and I have been reading through the rules - so far I like it!!!!

Looking forward to Romulan Border!

I will comment that if you buy Romulan Border you will have six more map panels for a total of 12 and a second copy of the rulebook. That can be a good thing. But if you want to save money, order Romulan Space which is the parts from Romulan Border not duplicated in Klingon Border.

The extra mapboards are well worth it. They also sell just a pack of mapboards. The reverse side with the larger hexes makes the counters or minis easier to move around (if you have the table space!).
