(Thinking.) Maybe, depending on whether you want to call the suit
dimension, which has 4 values, compact. But there are only 4 pawns,
not 24, because pawns are 1D, not 2D like tiles and coins (and
debatably dice).

The coins could have four dimensions on one side and five dimensions on the other, although that might get a bit crowded. Instead of dice, a set of 10 coins, one for each dimension. Either that or tetrahedral or octahedral dice. Kilopack, anyone?
