A short video showing my way of packing all the elements of Earth Reborn boardgame using its very well designed tray/insert.

Thx for the video. Good to see that sleeved cards will fit into the box. Good inlay. I wish FFG would spend more time on creating such a organized inlay.

Very good--and timely. I was just trying to figure everything out today. I'm a little surprised that there is no actual place for the order markers, which is what held me up until I saw your solution.

One minor error: The cards aren't meant to stand up like that. You lay them down flat in that well, and the well's cross-shaped so that part of the deck (in my case, the character cards) fit crossways on top of the rest of the deck. Still works with sleeved cards.

Great video. The only thing missing is going over how you arranged your chits in the lower right bottom section. I'm having a hard time arranging those. Can anyone give a list of a good arrangement?

Also, I took out my miniatures without memorizing their positioning in that tray, so if someone could break down how to put them back in, that would be great too!

Great Video.
Thanks a lot fo doing this for the community.
I agree, the card's tray is studied so that you can put all your cards in protective sleeves (not provided in the game though .
And sorting them in a criss-cross way (I think and hope that's the way to say it).
Usually, I sort the cards in my box, this way from bottom to top and each time, each small pack of cards is placed in an orthogonnaly direction compared to the previous stack under it :
- Norad Mission cards
- Salem Mission cards
- Equipement cards
- Character cards
If you place them flat like that and criss-crossed, they shouldn't mix-up together, even though they are not in sleeves.
But if youput them in sleeves, they really stand very well, and stay well sorted with no chance at all of getting mixed together.

Another little mistake in the video :
on top of the Missile room go only the communication room and the biggest L shaped corridor.
The other L shape corridors go :
- 2x2 in the 2x2 room section
- 3x3 in the 3x3 room section

All the 1x1 tiles can go in the same compartment, but it's quite a good idea to put the 1x1 specific tiles where you have put them (meaning under the long straight corridors). What I mean by "specific 1x1 tiles" are : the sewers exit and stairs up and stairs down tiles.

Last thing, the 2x1 tiles can be placed flat in the compartment you have shown. It goes all the way to the top then and gives a flat area for the room going on top.

There you have the full solution the way we designed it (and this mainly JC Mourey's great design) even though everybody can do exactly how he wants and maybe find some more practical way of storing his components in his own box.

Once again, thanks for this video, and thanks to JC who imagined that like a small puzzle game in the game and I know he never wanted to give you the perfect solution right away, since for him it was like a small brain teaser.

Enjoy

What are those blue 1x1 (or 2x1) tiles with a printed circle placed under the 1x5 tiles in the box? I don't have them.

They are visible at the begining of the video, for example at 0:56.

I am still left with same question as schizoferret.

What tiles are these?



I cannot find tiles that look like this in my copy of the game.

Thanks

*OCD twitch*

I must find them.

Edit: Found them, the video just makes them look bright green, red, yellow, and blue.

Thank you very much for posting this. You saved me a lot of frustration in trying to figure out where things go. What an amazing production this game is though.
