Ark Nova Deluxe Insert

Ark Nova Deluxe Insert

Description

This is a deluxe insert for Ark Nova- 'deluxe' meaning the original generic trays are not used. I wanted to create an insert that functionally helps with gameplay, looks somewhat good, and where I could minimize PLA use (although there is a lot of plastic here!) I used the fantastic custom pavilion and kiosks created by iKarl here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5182792. I also used the remixed break token from Mykereload here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5256608/files printed at 150% scale on the Z axis to increase height. Lastly, I knew I was going to be playing this game alot and I wasn't crazy about the player colors, so I went with custom colors. I printed the kiosk toppers to match the colors I liked, and recreated the associate worker tokens so you can print those in whatever color. I bought metal cubes from bgg to match the player colors (in hindsight this was overkill :) could've just bought regular wooden ones). You obviously don't need to do this. You also don't have to match the kiosk roofs to player colors and can just use whatever generic color you want. Print the following: Insert: -2 x AN player -2 x AN player mirror -1 x AN pavilions left -1 x AN pavilions right -1 x AN pavilions lid left -1 x AN pavilions lid right -4 x AN card holder -2 x AN credits -2 x AN enclosures -1 x AN bonus + venom -1 x AN universities -1 x AN specials 1 -1 x AN specials 2 Upgraded pieces: -3 x AN marker base in EACH color -4 x AN assoc worker in EACH color IF you are also changing out player colors (not needed if you're sticking with the wooden pieces in standard colors) -4 x AN shield top -4 x AN shield bottom -4 x AN appeal top -4 x AN appeal bottom -4 x AN reputation -16 kiosks and 12 pavilions from the iKarl link above -1 coffee mug printed at 80% x, 80% y, and 120% z scale from the Mykereload link above I printed all the insert pieces at either 0.20 or 0.30mm layer height and 10% infill. The upgraded pieces were at 0.20 with 50% infill to give them some heft. Some of the upgraded pieces you can see in the pics that I printed with multi layers to get the color effects. The layer changes I used were: AN Appeal Top - 0-4.20 White 4.20-5.20 Beige 5.20+ Black AN Appeal Bottom - 0-1.80 Beige 1.80+ Black AN Shield Top 0-5.20 White 5.20+ Shiny green AN Shield Bottom 0-1.20 White 1.20+ Shiny green AN Reputation 0-8.20 Black 8.20+ White The Appeal and Shield tokens require gluing the top and bottom halves together. They just then slot into the base, and I also glued that in. Final Notes: While it's very unlikely, you could run out of pavilions or kiosks since the game comes with standard 24 double-sided kiosk / pavilion chits. The "Ark" and "Nova" boxes attached to the pavilion storage on the top layer are unused extra storage and you can put those chits in there if you are worried. This is my second insert.
