World of WarCraft: The Board Game - 3D Printed Insert

last updated September 18th, 2024 — created June 20th, 2024

For each insert we create, we have a few standard design goals:

Reduce setup time as much as possible
Have separate component trays for "setup components" and "gameplay components"
Allow for vertical box storage without components crushing each other
Fit sleeved cards

This is our biggest insert ever. There are two large sets of drawers to hold the minis and everything else fits in the base game box (including both expansions). Table space has been a problem for us with this game. The insert was designed with this in mind.

Minis drawers make better use of vertical space
Play cards are divided across 3 trays so they can go where there's room
Tokens trays can be stacked if space is tight
Class trays get handed out during setup and keep unused cards out of the way during gameplay

There are pockets for the expansion characters tokens. Book, Bag, and Activation Tokens are stored upright, so you can easily pull sets. Setup cards for specific bosses get a paper sleeve and can be grabbed as needed.

Your printer MUST be able to print at a size of at least 280mm x 280mm for this design.

This insert uses labels for organization and to decorate the minis boxes on our board game shelf. We used vinyl sticker paper to make it easy; just print, cut, and stick them right on the plastic. There are SVG cut files for non-rectangular stickers for those with a cutting machine.

World of WarCraft: The Board Game

Fully Cooperative Variant

We have found that it is better to play this game fully cooperatively instead of as 2 factions. It's faster, more exciting, and has less downtime.

Combat Companion App

This app makes the dice and token combat system virtual. It's easier, less management, takes up less table space, and there are no tiny tokens to handle.

Errata Fix-It Stickers

We created a few fix-it stickers per the Errata listed in the FAQ.

Dice Tracker Companion App

This app's main goal is to allow players to keep a count of any dice they get without spending resources when they achieve higher levels.

Other Insert Projects

NEWProject L

Our components didn't fit well into any of our boxes for this game, so we've printed a new box that houses the base game and both expansions.

Twilight Imperium Fourth Edition

This insert is designed for optimal setup speed. It has a few setup trays to pull components from, and then all play trays go straight from box to table.

Star Wars: Rebellion

This is most certainly our best insert ever. It has a lot of cool features that we'd never be able to do with foam-core, like sets of miniatures drawers.

Runebound Second Edition

This design covers every expansion, limits the boxes needed to play, and features boxes for Adventure Variants and Character Decks.

StarCraft: The Board Game

The highlight of this insert is the faction towers. Each faction gets its own tower with reference info on shields for some room to strategize.

Harry Potter: Hogwarts Battle

This insert houses the base game and both expansions in the base game box. Setup is quick with several play trays that go straight from box to table.

DungeonQuest Revised Edition

This insert is one of the first that we did with multiple trays. It has card drawers for each mini-deck as well as small trays for all tokens.

Wiz-War

For this game we decided to store the base game and both expansions in one box with an overflowing insert (the lid doesn't fit on all the way).

Drakon

The best part about this one is the dungeon tile stacks bin. It makes setup much, much swifter.

Artisans of Splendent Vale

This mini-insert for the small components tuck box keeps numbered meeples ordered and ready for action!

Enigma

This was the first insert we ever made. If we ever remake this it will be very different. But it was certainly a useful learning experience.

D&D Adventure Board Games

We created a box to store all the heroes so we'd be able to easily select any hero from any of the sets no matter which game we pulled off the shelf to play.

Risk: Star Wars Black Edition

This was our first crack at making a 3D printed insert. It features rounded edges for easy component scooping and a draw deck space for each player.

World of WarCraft: The Adventure Game

We designed custom faction boxes for the character decks and tokens. We also made draw bins for challenge decks, and a neat drawer bin for discovery tokens.

Runebound Third Edition

This design covers every expansion, has tokens sorted for convenience, and features boxes for each scenario.

Sanctum

The best part of this insert is how fast it makes the hero skills table setup. 5 seconds, no joke.

Chess

We got a gorgeous new fossil stone chess set, but it came in a decrepit green box, so we made our own.

Chaostle

We kept the original plastic insert in the base game box and built this insert for the Melee Expansion box.

Tyrants of the Underdark

This insert fits the first edition box. It has player trays for the houses and organizes the cards (including the expansion decks) to make setup a breeze.
