This is a small collection of player aiding overlays etc. for the board game Merchants & Marauders.

First and foremost is the overlay for the ship hit locations, which I found was very difficult to keep in place on the player board. I made this with a very thin grabbing part to make sure that it stays at the right place on the player board. Works like a charm and a major improvement to the game in my humble opinion.

Second is the overlay for bounties, which was a lot more difficult to make. I printed it in two colors but single color will do just fine. It fits all 4 nation flags at each of the 5 bounty levels. Props to you if you manage to win all maxed out. :D If you have problems getting the flags to fit, try increasing the model by a percent or two.

Third is the overlay for the glory point track, where sliding game pieces have meant a few discussions about placement on the track. No sliding around with this baby on the board. ;)

Fourth, I found it very annoying that the treasure chests did not have a closed bottom. I made a model that closes off the chests very nicely without being too loose or too tight. Also makes it easier to identify the owner of a given chest.

All models should be printed at 0.2 mm without supports, EXCEPT the hit location overlay which needs supports for the board grabbing part.
