Armada MicroHangars
Tuckbox generator by Craig P Forbes.
If you're familiar with the
X-Wing MicroHangars, this is pretty much the same, store more in less space by using cardboard tuckboxes, measured to give each ship a tight and protective fit.
1. Print desired hangars on heavy cardstock (about 200 g/m2) at 100%. There's only an A4 version for now. I think that printing on letter size won't be a problem (at 100%!), there should be enough borders on the top and bottom of each page. Let me know if it works, if not, I can upload a letter size version.
2. Cut along the outer lines (you don't need to cut into the boxes where the lines are solid, works fine without those little grooves, same for the half circle on the back, not needed, only optional).
3. Fold all inner lines (works better if you score or engrave them first using a ruler, so much easier then)
4. Glue side and bottom
5. If necessary, trim the outer edges of the upper flap, in case the box doesn't close (be careful not to remove too much paper)
Here are some pictures and additional info:
Hangars for the three core game ships. I wanted the hangars to have some features in common with the X-Wing hangars and at the same time to be a little different. I used slightly alienated and desaturated artworks (with the "Armada blur", which can be found all over the rule book) instead of the specs graphics (which wouldn't be available for all Armada ships, by the way), the boxes open horizontally which I think is both cool and convenient when storing especially the larger ships.
Each ship is basically meant to be put into the hangars in normal position, sometimes at a slight angle. You can see that in the second picture. I did my best to design the VSD hangar in a way that the tiny antenna won't suffer any strain, hence the angled position of the VSD inside the hangar. Works perfect.
Each squadron get's its own box but is meant to be put inside on its base. The file contains a slightly different version to hold Luke's and Howlrunner's squadron as well. There's only one height, even though the squads have sligthly different heigths, but considering this would have complicated the whole thing too much (I don't want to search for the one and only box for each squad when cleaning up the table).
