«Quelques arpents de pièges» se joue sur une «planchette» (Règles du jeu dans la boîte de ce jeu fabriqué au Canada). Par contre, Peter Watts, dans ses analyses de nouveaux jeux de société dans «Science et Vie» (France), parle de «plateau de jeu» et de «plateau» dans le cas des jeux «Trioker» et «Diplomacy». «Planche», désignant une pièce de bois plus longue que large, ne devrait pas être utilisé ici : «planchette» et «plateau», aux dimensions plus réduites et ayant tous deux le sens de support, conviennent mieux. 1, record 1, French, - planchette%20de%20jeu
