3D model description
Organizers for Eclipse board game, Eclipse part 1.
Here are almost all organizers that I have designed for this game. Only an organizer for ship parts is available at Eclipse part 2 (several combination to choose).
This set contains:
01. MAIN PLAYER ORGANIZER: Here are kept all player ships [in 1 color]. Bigger are placed in the middle, nicely presented. Small Interceptors are in a right section, next to the storage markers and start discs. Both chambers have rounded bottom, so it's easy to draw elements. On the left is a section for Colony ship tiles and Starbases. These organizers can be placed one on another in the game box, so it's easy to storage.
02. POPULATION CUBE ORGANIZER: All cubes are arranged in this organizer, so they are prepared for the new play instantly. It is designed to relate with the player board, so when the cube is picked up, you can see the number under. Walls are not too small - so the cubes stay inside, but not too high - so you can pick them up easily.
03. INFLUENCE DISC ORGANIZER: A plate for player discs is related to player board - when you pick up a disc, you can see the right number under. Discs are kept in place thanks to specially designed walls. Still they don't stand in the way when you pick up the disc.
NOTICE 02+03: Population cube organizer is temporarily connected with the influence disc organizer during the play. However they are kept separately in different containers while storage. The container for 02 permanently joined with 03 would be more complicated to print, so I have chosen this solution. However you can print them as one organizer - I provide also .stl for this combination - Eclipse.PlayerCubes.and.Discs.stl [printing time: 3h]. But I haven't designed a related container.
04. CONTAINER FOR 6 POPULATION CUBE ORGANIZERS: A special container with perforated shelves to storage 6 population cube organizers. It is supposed to prevent cubes from falling out into the game box while storage.
05. CONTAINER FOR 6 INFLUENCE DISC ORGANIZERS: A rather simple container for disc organizers. They are kept in a pile. Cuts on both sides of the container provide easy way to take out organizers and you can see the colors.
06. HEX 0 STAND: A stand for starting sector hexes and galactic center hex.
07. HEX I STAND: A stand for sector I hexes.
08. HEX II STAND: A stand for sector II hexes.
09. HEX III STAND: A stand for sector III hexes.
NOTICE for 06-09: Each stand height is analogue to related deck height. On the bottom there is a perforation '0', 'I', 'II' or 'III', so you know which type of hexes is supposed to be kept there. On the top, pillars are a little wider, so you can attach rubber band - it additionally prevents hexes from falling out during the storage.
10. ENEMY SHIP STAND: A stand for ancient ship tile pile.
11. MONOLITH & ORBITAL STAND: A stand for monolith & orbital tiles. [Well, it's not the best of mine designs, but it works].
12. DISCOVERY TILE CONTAINER: A small container for discovery tiles. It has 2 section walls to prevent tiles from falling down on the bottom (when it would be really uncomfortable to pick them up).
13. DICE ORGANIZER: A container with 4 sections - for 3 types of dice and purple elements. All bottoms are rounded, so it's easy to draw elements.
All my Eclipse organizers fit the game box and provide quick game setup. However it's not an insert.
