I would really like to purchase the thud boardgame for a gift, anyone know where i can get one?????

Welcome to the site!

I'd suggest the official Thud website shop, but they seem to be sold out of games there at the moment.

Looks like there's a used one on Amazon at the moment though. :wink:

The Mad Collector's got a stonky version of Thud with every dwarf and troll different!

I'm sure he'll post a photo.

OK, that's my project for the weekend sorted out Pooh

Actually I am starting to photograph all my Bernard Pearson pieces for insurance records so I need to do that one anyway.

As for buying one well the commercial sets do turn up on Ebay every now and then, but there are none there at the moment but Bernard has his travelling set which is really nice.

It looks like he might be getting the larger size one again at some point as he lists it as temporarily out of stock.

OK as requested by Pooh. This is the limited edition painted set made in 2002. I have no idea how many were eventually made, but probably not many as it was made to order only and priced at £500 excluding board.

First up the set laid out ready to play

Now individual dwarfs

Now the trolls

and finally the underside of my board which is multiple signed by Terry, Bernard Pearson, Trevor Turan and the person who made the board (whose name eludes me sorry)

Thank you very much! I just bought this. Or I hope I did, assuming my accepted Paypal payment means it's still in stock. I've been looking for one of these for years, and this is the first one I've ever seen in the States. Now all I have to do is fine someone to play it with me...

Why don't you play with yourself? :lol:

Excellent idea. Perhaps you can serve as my Sensei in this area, since you are acknowledged as the most experienced master baiter around here.
