Cosmic Encounter Game Board

thingiverse

Customizable game board for Cosmic Encounter. #### Changelog **2018-05-12**: Added destiny chips and ship tokens. **2018-04-15**: Original version. #### System Hexes You will need to print six system hexes, each in a different color. If you have the More Cosmic expansion, you may opt to use a model with one or two cutouts for moons. ##### Full System Hex If you would like hexes in a single color, use one of the following models: * `system_0_moon.stl` * `system_1_moon.stl` * `system_2_moon.stl` ##### Split System Hex For a more traditional look, you may print each system hex in two pieces. Print the base of the hex in color, using one of the split bottom models: * `system_0_moon_split_bottom.stl` * `system_1_moon_split_bottom.stl` * `system_2_moon_split_bottom.stl` Then print the top of the hex in black, using the matching split top model: * `system_0_moon_split_top.stl` * `system_1_moon_split_top.stl` * `system_2_moon_split_top.stl` Then superglue the pieces together. This will give you a system hex that is black on top but has colored planet cutouts. (Alternatively, you may try using the one-piece models and pausing the print to swap filament at the appropriate layer, but I have not had much luck with this technique.) #### Void Print one `void.stl` in black. If you fancy a dual-color void hex, you may instead use `void_split_bottom.stl` and `void_split_top.stl` as described above. #### Destiny Cone You will need to print two destiny cones. I recommend printing `destiny_cone_one_sided.stl` once in black and once in white or light gray. You may use them as two separate cones, or glue them together back-to-back for a more traditional "flip" approach. Alternatively, if you'd like a single print, you may use `destiny_code_two_sided.stl` and perform a filament swap mid-print. #### Destiny Chips Rather than using a destiny card to select the target system, you may print destiny chips that can be selected from a bag. You'll need four chips for each system color -- three to represent a normal attack and one to represent an inverse attack. Each chip is made from two parts, an inside and an outside, which can be press-fit together with no glue. You will need: * Print four `chip_outside.stl` in each of your six system colors. * Print 18 `chip_inside.stl` in white or light gray. * Print six `chip_inside.stl` in black. You will also need a wild, and a wild inverse chip. These are can be done with a single solid color: * Print one `chip.stl` in white or light gray. * Print one `chip.stl` in black. If you'd like to use any of the additional destiny cards included with More Cosmic Encounter, you can print some `clip.stl` in a separate color, and then draw from the deck when one of these is selected. #### Ship Tokens You may print ship tokens to match your system colors. For each system color, print 20 `ship.stl`. I prefer to print these in a higher resolution (100 micron) than the other pieces. #### Disclaimer This was designed specifically for the Mayfair edition. It will likely work for other editions as well, but I am not personally familiar with them. Please leave me a comment if you print this and use it for another edition.
