I don't recognize any of those game pieces. Except chess. The bunny one is cute, though.

Natter 37: Oddly Enough, We've Had This Conversation Before.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
The front left piece looks to be from Acquire: [link]
The BUffy Board Game piece is the piece you use to count off days between full moons. I don't know what it's called, but you roll a particular die to find out whether it advances, and it's important, because Oz loses all his accumulated stuff (but becomes a badass) when the moon goes full.
Nutty beat me to it. I'll just add that it's pewter.
The 10-H piece is a hotel chain piece from Acquire.
Shari (or anyone else), if you're interested in "cheating," I just googled my way into another discussion of the contest: [link]
I knew people here could help. Ah, so many games, absolutely zero time. My games these days are mostly "rock, papers, scissors" with a 5-year old and "where'd you put my cellphone, darling?" with a 3-year old... Thanks, folks.
Definitely.
That is working out pretty well so far. msbelle, come visit.
Shouldn't I be the one to get the visit?
Gah. Both of my bosses are gone, but I actually have something I have to finish before I go home.
Life is so unfair.

What do you need her help with, exactly?
I've had a revelation. Or, more like I was talking really fast and don't disagree with what I ended up saying. Yet. I think I'd get less guff at krav if I were smaller (because then I'd be remarkable) or bigger (then I'd be typical). Instead I'm in the middle ground of big but not big, small but not really small, so my level of aggression gets remarked on in the way it does. If I were a 6' man and hit as hard as I do, I don't think anyone would complain, especially in jest. It'd be par for the course, at best.
Well, it works for now.
