Our storage solution for Eldritch Horror includes nine (9) removable trays and is intended to be placed inside the publisher game box (core or any of the large expansion boxes – MOM, UTP, DREAM). This solution will store all tiles, tokens, and many cards from the base game and expansions, but you will also need an EH-002 (and possibly 2x EH-002s) to handle the rest of the cards depending upon how many dividers you use and whether you sleeve.
This storage solution provides:
- one (1) removable large card storage tray w/12 dividers (sleeved/unsleeved)
- one (1) removable small card storage tray w/10 dividers (sleeved/unsleeved)
- one (1) removable spare storage tray (plastic bases and more can be stored here)
- one (1) removable round token storage tray (clue, eldritch, improvement tokens, etc.)
- one (1) removable monster tile storage tray (normal and epic)
- one (1) removable token storage tray (dice, doom, omen, tickets, etc.)
- one (1) removable investigator/gate tile storage tray
- one (1) removable investigator/ancient one card storage tray (unsleeved only)
- one (1) removable health/sanity storage tray
This solution provides 2mm of free space at the top for game manuals. This solution allows the core game board to be stored on top and is stable, but it will contribute about .5″ of lid lift. We keep our game boards in an empty UTP expansion box.
What Do You Need?
You will note all images illustrate the game stored without using sleeves. Sleeves can decrease your storage capacity by up to 50% in some cases, based on sleeve thickness. See product notes below for more information.- If you own just the base game, you need 1x EH-001. You can store your game board on top and it is stable, but it will contribute about .5" of lid lift.
- If you own the base game and all expansions, you need 1x EH-001 and 1x EH-002 (2x EH-002 if you sleeve and own everything).
- If you own the base game, at least one expansion, but not all of the expansions, you need the EH-001 and may need 1x EH-002 as well depending on sleeve thickness and number of dividers used.
- Extra dividers are available here: EH-DIV-001
- In general, you should store your boards in an empty, large box.
Product Notes
- This solution provides nine (9) removable trays.
- This insert can store sleeved / unsleeved small/large cards. This solution does not allow sleeved investigator/ancient one cards.
- Large Cards: This insert has 279mm of large card lane storage. It can store ~996 unsleeved cards or ~558 FFG sleeved cards (.50mm per card). Keep in mind each divider will also use 3mm of card lane space. The values used for the card thickness estimate = .28mm.
- Small Cards: This insert has 174mm of small card lane storage. It can store ~600 unsleeved cards or ~355 FFG sleeved cards (yellows) (.49mm per card). Keep in mind each divider will also use 3mm of card lane space. The values used for the card thickness estimate = .29mm.
- This insert is constructed of HDF (wood product) and is natural colored. HDF does not contain a wood grain as it is a constructed wood product.
- Insert assembly requires some wood glue and about 60 minutes of assembly time. I recommend Sobo Craft glue or another comparable quick setting, tacky glue.
- This insert kit weighs > 5 pounds, so it must be shipped USPS Priority Mail outside of Canada and the United States.

Any fan of FFG board games knows that while they provide some of the best games around, also knows that their boxes turn into something of a hodgepodge of cards and markers after a few play-throughs of those games. Go7Gaming provides some of the best solutions to help alleviate some of that mess and get you right into playing the game without the sorting and setup. Being made of wood and glued together, the inserts are fairly rugged, holding their shape and protecting your investment. Not to mention that it looks really sleek when all the pieces fit perfectly into your game box. The assembly is pretty easy and goes together quickly. I had everything together and in it’s place within 2 hours.
The insert for Eldritch Horror is perfect for breaking up the various tokens, along with breaking the cards down so it’s easy to grab just the decks you need. The dividers are even parts of separate trays so that they can be easily placed beside the game board, in reach without having to dig into the box. This first insert will hold your core game set, along with several of the expansions. The main board and leafs can be stored in one of the other empty game boxes.
I give this insert a rating of 4.5 out of 5! The only reason for that half star is that I wish there was a way to store the main board with the core game, and while you can it adds a bit of a lift to the lid of the box. Otherwise I feel that Go7Gaming has another wonderful product here.

I have been looking for a product like this since I starting gathering Eldritch Horror expansions. When I found this, I purchased it and the EH-002 immediately. I couldn’t be much happier with the product.
It is made of a sturdy wood product. It feels hefty and solid. I assembled both sets in about an hour and a half (there are quite a few pieces). The amount of space is spectacular. I own all of the expansion except Dreamlands, and my second box is nearly empty using this organizer, and I am using dividers for every different set of cards (with plenty of dividers to spare).
My complaints about the organizer are few. One of which is the ease of assembly. It does take some effort. It also requires a good deal of glue (which they do mention in the assembly instructions). The next complaint is the instructions themselves. They get the job done, but maybe they could be a little better formatted, the small print was a little difficult to read and I think they could benefit from assembly diagrams instead of all of the text. Some more description about what each piece was intended to hold would be nice too (I ended up referencing the pictures on the website for this). My final concern is in the amount of room for monster tiles. I have some space still, but if they make many more expansions, this will run out.
Those are the reasons for the 4 instead of 5 stars, but don’t misunderstand me, this is a superb product and definitely worth the buy if you are an Eldritch Horror fan like I am.

The directions need some work because the letters and numbers assigned to the various ‘pages’ of wood product aren’t in order. I would suggest either changing the page numbers to be in the correct order (1/10, 2/10, 3/10) or updating the directions. It took a while to figure out which pieces were which.
Otherwise, a great experience. It was easy to make the pieces fit together and to apply wood glue. I have 2 edges that need more wood glue I think but otherwise I’m very pleased with my purchase.
The inserts fit perfectly inside the main box and I was able to fit the core game, forsaken lore, and mountains of madness in the single box. I ordered the second insert for when I purchase more Eldritch Horror expansions.
Thanks!

Quality product but make sure you read, unlike me, because you will have to glue the entire thing together and the game board will not fit in the box after which, had I known, I may have held off on this purchase as my agricola wood insert fit in the box with no glue and all the game boards still fit.
That being said the wood is super thick, feels like quality, precision cut with no defects and is highly expandable/customizable with tons of dividers, etc. Just wish I could fit it all in the box.

I do not know if Fantasy Flight Games changed their box depth to save money on the box. Once the glue on the insert that fit well with easy to understand instructions dried. I was able to fit every thing but the game board into the box neatly. The game board stick about 1/2 inch above the edge of the box with all the inserts set in place.
