DrillerAce Board Concepts
Here is the small travel version of the board that would not need to fold if I put the game in a 12" X 12" box. This would be printed in full color on a standard 2 or 3 mm thick board with black back.

The light cotton fabric at 21inches by 21 inches is a little thin and I'm now getting quotes on a heavy canvas 14" X 14" silkscreened board with a Merrow border. If this works out the new box might be a tube. That kinda goes with the retro space theme anyhow. Everything else has fallen into place except the box and board.
OK - the quote for the canvas board (which looks awesome) is low enough but the minimum is too high. I want this first run to be a short limited edition. I might have to revisit the original cloth board idea. I'm also considering a 4 color printed vinyl board. I'm waiting for that quote now!
Yeah, it's a difficult balancing trick, cost versus miniumum. When I did Border Reivers I was fairly happy I could sell 50, but I had to make 100 to make it even vaguely affordable. The more automated you want to construction to be, the higher the minimums are too. I remember getting a quote for the Border Reivers cards. They could do decks in shrink-wrap and tuck boxes, 4 colour for £1.76. Minimum order was 1,000 though!
