Hextraction Basic Tiles

This model is restricted by licensing terms. 

These tiles might be nothing but tracks, but they're the bread and butter of the entire game. Along with the board, these are the foundation of Hextraction, the hackable, 3D-printable board game.

These basic tiles are the core of the game - they build more momentum than fancy mechanisms, and they make the game move faster than complex effects. I recommend putting at least one basic tile into the pool per non-basic tile.

The tiles are named for the tracks' appearance - they're not abbreviations, so don't read too far into them!

I also included a blank tile - PLEASE don't print this! It's a base for your own designs, if you'd prefer not to start in Fusion 360.

Fusion 360 source: https://a360.co/42u6wDc The S and Z tiles were a late addition, so they have a separate source file: https://a360.co/3VYpz6d

All of my Hextraction tiles have a built-in sacrificial support under each notch - remember to snap it off after printing. Enable the brim if these detach from the bed.

Hextraction is a 3D-printable, modder-friendly board game designed by me, Zack Freedman of Voidstar Lab. In addition to tiles, you'll also need 10mm steel balls or 3/8" slingshot ammo and a game board. To learn the rules and how to get started, watch the Hextraction video!

Hextraction is absolutely free - it's free of charge - all of my models are here on Thangs, commercial use allowed. It's free-form - you can play with any number of opponents, even zero. It's free to modify - you can create your own tiles and configure your own board.

2x each secret tile and lids If you don't have m3 hardware for the flip flop replace with pachinko and king tiles

for youngins consider switching complex tiles for sozus

add one more of each tile for each player over 2

So for a starter kit to play with my kids, which ones from that first list would I replace with Sozus? (If it's not obvious, I've never played before and am still not sure how the rules work but am excited to learn!)

If you're still wondering, the hextraction video on Zack Freedman's channel says which tiles to swap out specifically

I wish there were some minimal instructions on the website when it comes to printing these. It took me a day to figure out that you have to snap the tabs off the bottom of the tiles after printing them, I thought something was wrong with them.

Aside from that I'm very excited to try the game.

The lack of printing instructions on any of these has honestly been a huge letdown.

yeah it took me a bit to get the board printed because lack of instruction on the print settings, orientation and supporting.

I did the same thing. I do see that in this project he does say "All of my Hextraction tiles have a built-in sacrificial support under each notch - remember to snap it off after printing."

how large are the tracks?

dachi

around 10mm (the ball bearings are 10mm so like 11,12?) edit: I just used the measure tool in the slicer it said 11mm so here's your answer.

A 10 mm steel ball is just barely too big to go through by gravity. How do I fix this?

I would suggest some sandpaper for your prints (Wear a mask and go outside because no one wants plastic in their lungs), making bigger tracks in the files, or buying smaller marbles. Best of luck and have fun playing!

Can i print these with a layer height of .2mm? Or will that make the game too sloppy?

I think most are doing .2mm printing
