The platinum pieces are the best part of this set. They have a map of waterdeep engraved on the back, which i liked. It's a minor nitpick, but it does mean i'll probably never use them while playing d&d.

The size is everything no pun intended. Pieces and board are washable. It's giftable and and the woven board will stand the test of time!

They smelt so horribly of mold, washed the rug and could not get the smell out.
