The news (confirmed by both Jake McKee and Jan Beyer) over on the Classic Castle
website is: The chess board is glued; the minifigs are not. Also, Jake says the
Chess set will be available here in North America.

Well - just ordered one from S@H Canada. $70 CAD which is quite a bit better
(after conversion) than the 50 Euro price I heard from the initial information
Supposedly shipping by June 30, but my experience is usually they ship sooner.
Cheers.
