THUD!
This is a little of what the THUDmeisters at www.thudgame.com have to say about the Limited Edition Game Pieces:
“These games pieces have been individually hand-polished and finished by Master Thud craftsmen. (That’s us) The dwarf pieces stand about 2-1/8th inches tall (5.5cm) and the trolls are just under 3 inches (7.5cm)tall.
Each dwarf carries a mining axe, a battle axe, and a shield of battle-bread, and the troll is standing on the remains of the tree from which the club he wields was torn.
Each set is shipped inside an embossed box, one that would not look out of place on a discerning collectors shelf or within the Oblong Office. Each piece is has its own place in the box, set within safety foam ensuring safe delivery anywhere in the world.
Smooth and well-worn to the touch; heavy and substantial like the rocks strata mined in the Low Kings mines, the pieces add a sensory gravitas to the game. Each piece is hand finished making it, and each set, completely unique.
“There will only be 100 sets of this design sold. Each set will be individually numbered and will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by the craftsmen (and women!) and certified by us. Every set will be registered with us so that someone purchasing a secondhand set can be sure of buying a genuine Thud Limited Edition product.”

The THUD! game was created, or invented, or otherwise discovered by Terry Pratchett, Bernard Pearson and Trevor Truran. Many thanks go to all of them. And for those who would rather read than play, the game is mentioned in a few of the Discworld® novels by Terry Pratchett - THUD! being one of them.
