System Hexes

You will need to print six system hexes, each in a different color. If you have the More Cosmic expansion, you may opt to use a model with one or two cutouts for moons.

Full System Hex

If you would like hexes in a single color, use one of the following models:

• `system_0_moon.stl`
• `system_1_moon.stl`
• `system_2_moon.stl`

Split System Hex

For a more traditional look, you may print each system hex in two pieces. Print the base of the hex in color, using one of the split bottom models:

• `system_0_moon_split_bottom.stl`
• `system_1_moon_split_bottom.stl`
• `system_2_moon_split_bottom.stl`

Then print the top of the hex in black, using the matching split top model:

• `system_0_moon_split_top.stl`
• `system_1_moon_split_top.stl`
• `system_2_moon_split_top.stl`

Then superglue the pieces together. This will give you a system hex that is black on top but has colored planet cutouts.

(Alternatively, you may try using the one-piece models and pausing the print to swap filament at the appropriate layer, but I have not had much luck with this technique.)

Void

Print one `void.stl` in black. If you fancy a dual-color void hex, you may instead use `void_split_bottom.stl` and `void_split_top.stl` as described above.

Destiny Cone

You will need to print two destiny cones. I recommend printing `destiny_cone_one_sided.stl` once in black and once in white or light gray. You may use them as two separate cones, or glue them together back-to-back for a more traditional "flip" approach.

Alternatively, if you'd like a single print, you may use `destiny_code_two_sided.stl` and perform a filament swap mid-print.

Destiny Chips

Rather than using a destiny card to select the target system, you may print destiny chips that can be selected from a bag. You'll need four chips for each system color -- three to represent a normal attack and one to represent an inverse attack. Each chip is made from two parts, an inside and an outside, which can be press-fit together with no glue. You will need:

• Print four `chip_outside.stl` in each of your six system colors.
• Print 18 `chip_inside.stl` in white or light gray.
• Print six `chip_inside.stl` in black.

You will also need a wild, and a wild inverse chip. These are can be done with a single solid color:

• Print one `chip.stl` in white or light gray.
• Print one `chip.stl` in black.

If you'd like to use any of the additional destiny cards included with More Cosmic Encounter, you can print some `clip.stl` in a separate color, and then draw from the deck when one of these is selected.

Ship Tokens

You may print ship tokens to match your system colors. For each system color, print 20 `ship.stl`. I prefer to print these in a higher resolution (100 micron) than the other pieces.
