Last summer my fiancee and I had the idea of a Settlers of Catan seder plate. It all seemed to work so well, the brick for the charoset, the sheep for the zeroah (lamb shank), wheat for the bitter herb. We waited until this Passover to share, so that it was more appropriately timed.
Sure, the wheat is kind of out of place since it's forbidden on Passover, but it works well enough as a symbol for other things that grow that could be the bitter herb (maror).
For an broad introduction to the Passover seder plate, see this link from Chabad.
Our Passover seder plate is below:
Charoset: brick
Maror (bitter herb): wheat
Chazeret (bitter herb): pastures hex
Zeroa (lamb shank): sheep
Karpas (vegetable): wood
Beitzah (egg): a real egg
