Are you aware that there's already a pretty advanced piece of boardgame
software written in Java, called VASSAL? The current release doesn't
support SVG, but SVG support (using Batik) is finished and should show
up in the next release a few weeks from now. You might want to check
this out before you write something like this from scratch:

Hi and thanks for that URL.
Though I can't use it, as my work is for an Uni course and so I (or
better my team and I) need to do it on our own ;-)
If you want more info about our project you can check out
http://sourceforge.net/projects/boardgameonline/ if you like. We're the
"Shogun" group. But currently everything is still in a pretty early
stage of development.

That should be http://www.vassalengine.org I think.
