About the Project
I've been accused of doing long projects that lack focus so the dugeonalia idea is to look at the alien hive on Lv426. The focus is to complete a 3d version of the board from the classic leading edge games Aliens board game from the 90s

The classic
![The leading edge games version of Aliens is still my favourite. I've played it more than any other board game. It's quick it's easy and it's fun and can be made as complicated as you like. I've had it over 30 years and obviously looks the worse for ware. I've always wanted a 3D version and now seems the perfect time to have a go. I'll be concentrating on the atmosphere processor hive when the marines have to escape to the APC. Lv427 designs recently did stl files for their version of the board but I'm not too happy with the lack of hive slime on the walls. I guess they thought people might use it for other games so I'll be 3d printing znd converting.](https://images.beastsofwar.com/2023/11/99092069-20231119_185637-770.jpg)
First print problems
![The board is split into 15 sections and I'm using a resin printer which isn't really the right printer for the job as they dont fit on my print bed unless i turn them on their side. I did this with the first corner and ran out of resin so i have some holes to fix. I also had to chop the file in half for it to fit](https://images.beastsofwar.com/2023/11/65257178-20231118_203833-770.jpg)
![The second section fits on the print bed on it's side with the use of supports which are a pain to remove](https://images.beastsofwar.com/2023/11/82240303-20231118_182513-770.jpg)

Generator
![This blocked off section of the map isn't represented on the prints because it cover numerous tiles so it vomrs as a separate generator that can be placed on the board](https://images.beastsofwar.com/2023/12/92115934-1000005860-770.jpg)
