Battlestar Galactica Starship Battles Modular Dashboard

thingiverse

This is a modular dashboard set-up for the Battlestar Galactica Starship Battles game. Each piece was designed to fit on a small print bed. The main board holds both of your large cards (ship and pilot), angled so you can read both while playing. It also has space for 10 damage tokens (also angled slightly for easy reading), as well as the ID tag that will match your ship and control panel (you'll need more stickers). In addition, there are add-ons for talent cards, both singles and doubles. These are flat instead of vertical, so you can place the used tokens on them during the game. When they are used-up, just flip the cards over. Best part, these are designed to use 5mm ball magnets to help keep it all together and organized during the game. You can add as many of the talent card holders as needed for each pilot. Included also is a small cover you can print to permanently hold the magnet in place, or just leave them exposed and add them as needed. Note: Be careful when gluing the cover on, you don't want to glue the magnet. Ball magnet joints are designed so the magnet stays free to rotate itself when joined to another ball magnet. If it gets glued the joint won't work. UPDATE 1/14/19: The ID tag was a little too large to fit into the slot, so I resized it a little smaller. I also added a turn aid, designed by Trevor Marshall (Facebook Starship Battles group) from cardstock, permission given to make a STL of it. UPDATE 1/16/19: While watching a print, I noticed on the Ship file it was printing a hole for a magnet on the back wall. I looked at the source file and cleaned up that issue. Very minor fix that had no effect other than to not be as efficient on the prints. Also fixed the small cover plate, to make it easier to print on an FDM printer. You will want to print that with no more than 0.10mm layer height.
