Exclusive chip designed by us for poker event organisers but a customer email 1st October 2017 said this:-
Just a quick email to thank you for the prompt delivery of all those red poker chips. They arrived safely in two bags on consecutive days.
My reason for purchase is a game called
Hoplomachus (only available on order from the USA). A number of gladiators move around a hex grid on a large neoprene mat, and are represented by poker chips containing their titles and statistics. Underneath the gladiatorial chip are a number of red poker chips indicating health. Whenever a gladiator is injured you remove one or more chips until he has none left and is defeated. (That's the term used in the rules. In my mind I think dead.)
It's a good game, but the red chips provided by the game are flimsy by comparison with the many gladiatorial chips. It didn't feel right moving a large pile of them around without a bit of heft to them. The newly arrived chips are a vast improvement in terms of the feel of the game. Unfortunately the upgraded components don't help me win. I've yet to get past round two of the thee-round survival I need for victory.
