<h3>30 Rails</h3><p>30 Rails is a single player game, that I came across on BoardGameGeeks: <a href="https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/200551/30-rails">https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/200551/30-rails</a></p><p>Idea of the game is to fill every tile with rails and create a rail network. So far so good, but the original game requires a 2D Printer - mine isn't working, so in order to play the game I built the game in 3D. On the other hand, the game is listed in the category “Print &amp; Play” - nobody told me to print on paper!</p><p>Before printing, check if the game fits your taste by reading the rules (find the link below at the section “Play”).</p><h4>Printing</h4><p>For good play experiences I recommend you to use three different colors. Following are the colors I used:</p><ul><li>Box and Board: Prusa Galaxy Black</li><li>Rails: Prusa Azure Blue</li><li>Mountains, Mine Stations and Bonus Tile: Prusa Lipstick Red</li></ul><p>All parts use the same slicer configuration: 0.15mm layer hight, 0.4mm nozzle, no support. I used the default slicer configuration “0.15mm Quality” from the PrusaSlicer and printed everything with PLA on my Prusa MINI+.</p><h5>Box and Board</h5><p>Board and Box are very straight forward. Just print it.</p><h5>Rails</h5><p><i>The game's called 30 Rails and the idea of the game is to lay out 30 rails. Theoretically it's possible to dice the same number 30 times in a row, but statistically that almost never happens. I printed 15 items of each rail (10 items for left and right junction) and actually never run out during my several plays. If you run out of rails, print yourself a trophy.</i></p><p>I had some trouble printing too much rails at the same time. I ended up by printing all similar rails at the same time - max 15 rails on the bed.</p><p>There are 6 unique rails to print (see picture below). The left and right junction are the same, only differ by the direction.&nbsp;</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/74425/rich_content/0882711a-8e84-4b5a-8ff6-4e0154722a2e/img_4930.jpeg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%229b1b2968-a878-4747-9059-1d968bf65775%22%2C%22w%22%3A1333%2C%22h%22%3A1000%7D"></figure><h5>Mountains, Mine, Stations and Bonus Tile</h5><p>You can print all this items at once.</p><ul><li>1 Bonus Tile</li><li>4 Stations (note the different number of houses)</li><li>1 Mine</li><li>5 Mountains</li></ul><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/74425/rich_content/acea5759-3046-4bec-88db-a7c2668a0fd4/img_4928.jpeg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22ae0b1eb4-3daa-4015-aed5-059419ccca14%22%2C%22w%22%3A1333%2C%22h%22%3A1000%7D"></figure><h4>Play</h4><p>Checkout the rules: <a href="https://boardgamegeek.com/filepage/132508/30-rails-rules">https://boardgamegeek.com/filepage/132508/30-rails-rules</a></p><p>You need 2x 6-sided dices in order to play the game. On dice is for the position (row, column), the other one is for the rails.&nbsp;</p><h4>Store</h4><p>To store the game, every component fits into the box. The board acts as a cover.</p><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/74425/rich_content/592bc961-9ec2-4565-ad8d-467f821b0f55/img_4914.jpeg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%2221746453-85ef-470e-a822-1014cdb73daf%22%2C%22w%22%3A1000%2C%22h%22%3A1333%7D"></figure><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/74425/rich_content/cf7486b4-aff3-49c2-a372-602092a24cdf/img_4913.jpeg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22ba81c640-bf42-4a7b-8328-db27c0f7db38%22%2C%22w%22%3A1000%2C%22h%22%3A1333%7D"></figure><h5>Ad</h5><p>If you wanna top up your experience, you can print one of my other models, the dice tower for two dices. The colors fit perfectly to the tiles and you never accidentally use the wrong dice for the wrong purpose. <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/74357-dice-tower">https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/74357-dice-tower</a></p><figure class="image image-style-align-center image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/74425/rich_content/6d140306-a154-43d3-997d-e0cff1c049c8/img_4910.jpeg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%229658a940-441b-408e-a8d1-ac53efd4f362%22%2C%22w%22%3A1333%2C%22h%22%3A1000%7D"></figure>
