  I have been DYING to find a Jetan board for years but I've never come across one. Now it turns out someone actually created an online Jetan game at least three years ago, and it's still active today.

  I think this is great!
  
  Fans of Edgar Rice Burroughs' John Carter of Mars series will want to try out this game. It's fantastic.
  
  Woohoo!
  
  I only wish I had found it three years ago.

  I also found this site has an article with a download for a PC Jetan game where you play against the computer.

  I might be making a jetan board for myself.  If you want one, let me know. Not a work of art mind you.
  And how large should each square be? 1.5 inch by 1.5 inch? Larger?

  I guess the size of the squares should depend on the playing pieces. At least share some pictures of the board and pieces when you've finished.

  Heh! For the longest time I thought this article was some spam that leaked through. "Play X Online! If you have a mouse, you will love this game!"
  
  Instead, I have to say that this is a cool ERB connection.

  And the game is still playable. That's the amazing thing.
