Connecthree

Ever wanted to play casual connect 4 or a modified version with more rules and thinking power required?

I first recreated the famous connect 4 board, coins, legs and a pin to hold the coins. You can easily stack coins on top of each other because of the ridges being able to connect together. Once you finish with the game, you can just pull out the pin from the side and shake the board to make sure all coins are out for next round.

HOW TO PLAY CONNECTHREE

You use the same materials of connect 4, but includes new set of rules and multipliers. Instead of just trying to find a connection of 4, you try to make as many connections of 3 using 3 different coins with points 1, 2, 3. To set up the board, you must first plug in the multipliers randomly with your friend, putting the same type of model on both sides of the board in the same hole. These indicates a multiplier of 2, 3, whatever you like. Then, you play until every last hole is filled. Afterwards you count the amount of points of a connection of 3. 
FOR EXAMPLE, in the photo listed to the left, the current points of yellow is, (3*2)+2+1 = 9. The current points of red is, (1+2+(2*2))+((2x2)+3+3) = 17. So currently, the red team is winning by 8 points and yellow must make more connections of 3 using the coins with the higher points in order to catch ahead. The point of this whole new modification is because connect 4's end is more predictable of who's winning, and connecthree 

PRINTING AND ASSEMBILING
The board is around ~250cm by ~200cm by ~3.5cm, while the coins each are around 3cm by 3cm by 1cm. 

When printing connect 4, there consists of four different models. For total, there are ONE game board, ONE puller, TWO legs, TWENTY-ONE yellow coins, and TWENTY-ONE red coins.

When printing connecthree, there consists of 10 different models. For total, there are SEVEN yellow 1p, SEVEN yellow 2p, SEVEN yellow 3p, SEVEN red 1p, SEVEN red 2p, SEVEN 3p, TWO of one design of multiplier (both plug on different sides of the board, same coordinates), ONE game board, ONE puller, and TWO legs.

Once you get all your pieces, just stick the legs into the holes under the board, and slide the puller into the bottom side of the board. You then can just play connect 4 with someone else! Plug the multipliers into the holes if you're playing connecthree.
