Using the 50mm size squares for a chessboard, I decided it would be interesting to use the grid based nature of the game Maleghast to explore designing modular tiles that can be popped out and replaced to show unique hazards, provide a stable base for terrain, and give the game a bespoke board just for it to be played on (or chess, I mean, it's a chess board.) Printing for an 8x8 grid, it should be around 16in square, or 400mmx400mm.

The pieces are currently not decorated, but should be easy enough to edit for those more artistically talented in 3d than I am. 

They're intended to be printed via FDM, but I'm sure they'd work fine in resin. For my own use, I intend to decorate them with normal terrain modelling techniques! 

Nothing should require supports except for the stairway, simply put the largest, flattest plane on the print bed and hit go. It is possible to print the tile caps with a single layer for the top, but you must wait until they're cooled to remove them from the print bed, or you'll stretch them and they won't sit right.

For an 8x8 grid, you'll need to print 16 of the 2x2 tile sets, and 64 caps.  You will need at least 128 8x2mm magnets to magnetize one complete board with no extras.
