18 Chesapeake


Made a version of 18 Chesapeake for a friend for their birthday. Slightly quicker version of the 18xx games.

Made the board with two layers of plywood glued together and some spray paint. The tiles are all laser cut and the top is using that nifty cog idea from the mastermind game. Made the crab (priority player indicator) out of three layers of 1/8 plywood glued together. boxes.py for the box design and some changes to the rack and pinon lid design to fit in the box.









Thanks!
David.

Your very lucky friend will be gobsmacked. Looks like a very complicated game and a very long designing, lasering and assembling session(s). Well done.

Awesome creation for a great game. Probably my most played 18xx game.
