Kingdom Death: Monster - Monster Storage Boxes

V1.4 Update - Added Parasite Queen and Screaming God boxes.

V1.3 Update - I have the kinks worked out, at least for the components I have. I'm fairly confident it will work for most cards and sleeves, but I could be mistaken. Let me know if you would like any tweaks. Check the dimensions of your sleeved cards to see if they will fit before printing.

INTRODUCTION

This is my take on monster card storage boxes for the game Kingdom Death: Monster. What I find unique is the integral trays for separating the cards while stored. These trays can then be used as draw / discard pile holders when playing the showdown.

CARD TRAYS

Each monster has two or more card trays. In general Quarry monsters have three and Nemesis monsters have two. With some exceptions like the Red Witches.

These trays are sized based on Paladin card sleeves or the official KD sleeves. The inside dimensions of the trays are 93mm high x 60.6mm wide.

The trays are also sized based on the number of cards that go in them. Please note I did not size them for cards that come with the expansion but can be stored with other similar card types, such as Disorders, Secret Fighting Arts, Tactics, etc. The trays are basically designed to store AI, Hit Location, and Resource / Hunt cards. Extra cards that are only used when that monster is in your campaign are stored with Hit Location cards. For example, some monsters have innovation cards, etc.

Since the trays are sized for the cards they store, they have extruded text on the bottom so you can always know which monster and which type of card it holds. (AI, Hit Location, and Resource / Hunt cards). This text will not show up unless multi-color printing is used as it is only .01 mm. So either keep track of what you are printing, or do multi-color prints.

COVERS

I have two styles of the covers, one with the text recessed inside and the other flush with the front. Choose whichever cover will print best for you. Personally I preferred the recessed text.

MAGNETS

The trays are designed with spaces for magnets to be inserted. They are 5mm diameter x 2mm high cylinder magnets. The box covers have two spaces for magnets as well which when done right hold the covers on very well.

While you can have the magnets face the same direction, I recommend the two magnets sharing a wall face opposite directions. This makes so the trays can attach in any orientation. Come up with a system and test it before inserting all of them.

I ended up having to glue the magnets as they will eventually pop out over time. I used Zap-A-Gap Medium CA+. I found that it does very little ghosting on the print.

PRINTING

What's shown in the pictures was printed on a Prusa XL in an enclosure using two toolheads, one with Prusament Galaxy black and the other with Prusament Marbled Grey. Print settings, 0.4mm nozzle, 0.2mm layer height. I added a box right above the the recessed text to force the slicer to print the inside of the text and surrounding internals in grey, this way it would properly have the tool do overhangs spanning the text instead of printing over thin air.

Also note the pictures are a lot lighter because my phone auto adjusted exposure. In real life they are much darker.

FILES

I uploaded the White Lion box and trays so you can see them. If you want the full sets they are zipped in the OTHER FILES. I have two versions of the covers, one with flush text and the other where the text is recessed.
