Very good quality very nice game and makes a great gift. The only problem is with the posting while you're shopping, there are three sizes available but there are not three tabs in the item description area to choose the one that you want. I ended up having to return what they sent me because I wanted the largest size possible I just had no ways to choose that item.

Good board but could be better

It's a good board, but with just a few tweaks it could be great. For whatever reason they decided to include mini dice instead of regular sized dice. They're small and light weight, and I would have much preferred regular dice. I'll be buying my own and replacing them.
Second, the points are sewn to the board in a way that as you slide your pieces from point to point, the seam allowance comes up preventing a smooth slide. You have to pick the pieces up rather than slide them. I am still trying to figure out how to fix that aspect of the board. Maybe carefully glue them down?
Third, the board does not have a handle. It's a good size board, so carrying it would be easier/better with a handle.
Lastly, the clasp which keeps the board closed is taller than half the board, meaning when you open it and lay the board flat, the clasp cannot be on the fully open position, otherwise the board will not lay flat.
At any rate, it is a beautiful looking board. And I have so far played many games on it. The pieces are of a good weight, though a tad small. Overall I feel the manufacturer cut corners to produce an economy board, which is their right, but I wish I'd read a review like this whole I was shopping for a board so I would have known about the idiosyncrasies that currently annoy me.
