Underrated September 22, 2006 Reviewer: Robert from SC   People tend to either love or hate this set.  Not everyone appreciates the fat pawns, for example. IMO, the design is attractive and grows on you with use.  It's solid and can take a beating and still look as "ugly as new." The set is as practical as any HOS set, just not as pretty (IMO).  I suggest shopping around.  The set can be purchased brand new for less than $20. I won't post the URL but trust me. BTW, I no longer use this set myself but not because it's poor quality. Was this review helpful to you?

Rugged & heavy-duty May 1, 2006 Reviewer: Jeremy from Chicago metro, Illinois   A buddy at my club has this set. It is as advertised; the cheapest set with good weighting. The detail on the knights does not impress like the House of Staunton and Legend sets do. One thing I noticed is that these knights are a bit easier to grasp when the action gets fast. If they would put a bit more effort into knight detail, this would be 5 stars. Was this review helpful to you?
