I made a set of 50x50 tokens from the Star Frontiers Alpha Dawn counter set found at https://www.starfrontiers.com/counters/index.htm. I cloned out the names and letter designations from the counters, so each is just an image on its original background color (see attached PNG). I have compiled them into a module in case anyone else would like to use them.

The alphadawntokens.zip file contains a single file, alphadawntokens.mod. To install, put the .mod file into the /modules folder in your Fantasy Grounds data folder. The link to the application data folder can be found in your start menu under Fantasy Grounds II.

When you open any campaign in Fantasy Grounds, the module should appear in your campaign's module list where it can be activated. Once it's activated, the tokens are available in your token box.

Enjoy!

Thanks for this. I ran Star Frontiers while in college and these bring back some good memories.

Edit to fix an EVIL typo. :p

Awesome, love those old tokens.

*Learned on D&D, SF was the first RPG I bought and ran myself*

I had a lot of good times running and playing Star Frontiers back in the 80s. It was a nice blast from the past to run "Crash on Volturnus" for some folks on Fantasy Grounds! These counters came out of that. I also tried to make a ruleset, but I didn't get far enough with that to have anything worth sharing from it. I made a character sheet, but it didn't jive with the combat tracker at all.

Oh, I did find this, though. It's a true type font of the Star Frontiers title font. Works fine with the FG font conversion tool.

LOL, I remember running the Volturnus series. My players would scream and moan and claimed they were DOOMED on Volturnis. :)
