If you just need trays, you only need to print the first plate (6 times, or 8 if you have Prophecy of Kings). Print the Neutral units tray if you have Thunder's Edge. The lids are helpful when storing all the trays stacked in a 3x3 arrangement (9 total) in the base game box. The lids will leave space for all the faction mats, leader sheets and command sheets to be placed on top.

The model in this profile is the same as the main profile for larger format printers. However, this profile is considered experimental since it splits the tray in half and requires glue/connection to assembles the halves together. I originally planned the tray for my own use to print with my H2S and did not plan for a split piece. Due to popular demand I am adding this profile for you to try if you really want to print this and don't have access to a larger printer. Please reach out if you run into issues or want help printing this model.

Designer's Description
Twilight Imperium Player Units & Ships tray

This is a tray meant to store and organize all player ships and player units (ground forces, mechs, infantry…) along with player color coded cards (promissory notes, technology cards, promissory notes), and dice (optional), for Twilight Imperium 4th edition.

I have designed this piece with my elevated Player Dashboard in mind but could be used along with other accessories / storage / organizing solutions for TI:

  • The tray will fit all player units including mechs from the Prophecy of Kings expansion
  • There is plenty of room for extra cards (homebrew / future expansions / codexes)
  • Up to 9 colored dice can be stored in a designated compartment (otherwise this compartment could be used for custom components)
  • A small bin will also store the generic color-coded command & control tokens from the Thunder's Edge expansion meant for Twilight Fall game mode.
  • It will fit the underside of my Player Dashboard for Twilight Imperium 4th edition

🏗️ Assembly instructions

No glue needed, no assembly required.

  • Print of 6 of the main player tray model (first plate) if you have the base game
  • Print 2 more if you have Prophecy of Kings
  • Print the neutral units tray if you have Thunder's Edge (third plate)
  • Print the lids from the second plate only if you plan to store these trays in the base game box

IMPORTANT: I had originally planned this model for myself to be printed with my H2S and did not account for people who wanted to print it with a smaller format printer. If you plan to print this with a smaller printer (e.g. A1, P series…), I provided a profile that splits the tray in two halves and you will then need to glue them together. I am including 2 pegs to facilitate the joinery. I consider that profile experimental because it's not what I originally intended. Please let me know if you are still able to obtain good results with it. I'd be happy to help you out if you reach out to me here or on Discord.

📦 Storage

If you print 9 of these models (8 for the regular player units and an extra for the neutral units added in Thunder's Edge) then you can fill the base game with them. The lids will allow storing the faction mats and player mats (leader mats and command mats) – all 8 player mats and the 30 mats for the factions of the base game, Prophecy of Kings and Thunder's Edge (including the Mahact Kings from Twilight Fall) will fit with minimal to no lid lift.

The trays are stackable so they won't move. The lids will also stack into the top of the lids when stored. This means you could store the box vertically! Something that most organizers won't allow.
