But the question is how do the prisoners cut the chits apart? If they can't have dice, they certainly can't have scissors. Does the warden cut the chits up for them?

Hope that helps.

I started making my own models when I could not find the ones I wanted to play my own games with. If my players guess correctly what the things are meant to be I make more. I have not made any for a while as I have moved house, home & business, & have been too busy redecorating two houses, but now with a little more time i have started the proceedure again. I make the models from anything i can find that suits the model. clay, pastic, wood, metal, anything. THEY ARE NOT TOYS & SHOULD NOT BE GIVEN TO MINORS, I ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY IF THEY ARE NOT USED/GIVEN WISELY ONCE THEY LEAVE MY POSSESSION. would make great presents. If you are unhappy with the item once it arrives please contact me before leaving anything but +FB I am sure we can sort it out, especially as it would just be esthetics. There are many items pictured this auction is for only the one stated, my camera is no good so please dont bother wasting my time & yours asking for better pictures, I cannot do them....yet. thanks for understanding The elf drow that appears is for size only & not included in the sale.
