Character Games Limited is for CGL, Not GLJ!

Wouldn't want to get them confused, that could lead to all sorts of awkwardness, you would not know if you were coming or going, had seen them or not, or whether they were what you thought they were, all very confusing, what with GLJ, the makers of those cheepo Hong Kong space vehicles we've seen here a couple of times in the last few years, looking a bit like CGL! Anyway we're definitely looking at CGL in this post, not GLJ which we haven't looked-at, at all today, all day, no need to mention it really!

Shot last year on the way to storage, and what can I say about it, it's a chess-set, for chess-players to play chess with, it's modern, the pieces are a dense resin of some kind, quite heavy for the faux-ivory they are aiming at, but injected, not poured, so relatively robust and nicely detailed.

Tied into the second movie - 2002

The tray

Set-up, have I got the kings on the right colour?
All that effort on the figures and the board's a bit naff!

Boooooo! Boooooo!

Raaaay! Raaaay! Lovin' the Ents!

White wins because it's a morality tale!

Black looses because it's fiction!
