Epic AH storage & customization - Part 6: Miscellanious

By jez79, in Arkham Horror Second Edition

Part 5

This wraps the project up. Random seldomly used card or token sets (except for the boring money cup which is always on the board).

Glass jar for brood tokens, boring tupperware money cup

Dark Pact deck set

Quachil Uttaus dust deck set w/ lid (+magnets)
Had to make a lid for it because the cards were a little loose in the holders. Lid has a lip that holds the cards in. It's an awesome display for anyone brave enought to try to take Q.U. on... Also, the display is a reminder for first player to draw dust cards

Modded Dollar store cigarette case, little velour bags (hard to sew those suckers in the sewing machine!)

The little dice bage hold 8 red or blue d10 dice. They are used to place over your printed max stamina and sanity, that way when you get max stat bonus you can turn the die and remember for the rest of the game.

Cigarette case holds the remaning small cards not accounted for yet: deputy cards, condition cards, spell effect cards and the benefit/detriment cards.

I've got two options for a container for the gates and rift tokens.
Clear cylinder w/ lid, with too much empty space

Another of those painted and découpage'd wood boxes

What a trip, folks! 2,415 cards, close to 50 card types, ... Everything accounted for! (I'll post the Dunwich\Act card box later, it didn't work out) I'm considering these prototypes, they're all hand made and imperfect, but that's the charm of this personal set. A good way to spend a few weeks of summer vacation; I look forward to many very well set-up games of AH with my gaming friends.

I'm considering making and selling much of what I've posted here, on an Etsy store for example. I'm sure there's not that much demand for these products, but I can streamline production (friend has CNC shop, could make out of fancy wood or cheaper wood and paint, etc) ensuring perfectly fitting pieces (hard to get 100% perfect cuts with hobby knife and ruler when making batch pieces for assembly) and keep costs low. I could also design boxes for other games, not sure which would benefit from a setup like this as much as AH does.

I hope you've enjoyed the pictures and the extravagance of a random craft idea taken way way too far. smile.gif Hope you have + checks on all your encounters. Cheers!
