DOMINION: CORNUCIPIA/GUILDS EXPANSION 1st Adition *

Dominion: Cornucopia / Guilds Expansion (1st Edition) – Brief Summary

Dominion: Cornucopia & Guilds (1st Edition) is a combined expansion for the Dominion deck-building game that merges two earlier small expansions — Cornucopia (the 5th expansion) and Guilds (the 8th expansion) — into one box. It adds new Kingdom cards and mechanics to enrich your Dominion games but cannot be played on its own; you need the base game to use it. (Rio Grande Games)

🌾 Cornucopia (Part 1 – Variety Theme)

• Adds about 13 new Kingdom cards (plus a few unique ones).

• The focus is variety: many cards reward you for having a diverse set of different named cards in your deck, in your hand, or in play.

• Includes Prize cards, special cards that aren’t bought normally but are gained through specific effects.

• Encourages deckbuilding strategies based on variety rather than just power. (Rio Grande Games)

🛠 Guilds (Part 2 – Economic Theme)

• Adds 13 new Kingdom cards.

• Introduces Coffers (coin tokens): tokens you can take and then spend later to help buy cards on future turns.

• Some cards allow you to overpay when buying to get extra effects or benefits.

• The theme is focused on economy, resources, and guild-based roles in your kingdom (e.g., bakers, candlestick makers, journeymen). (Rio Grande Games)

📦 Combined Expansion Highlights

• Together, Cornucopia & Guilds add a total of around 26 new Kingdom cards and some tokens.

• They expand strategic options with variety-focused play and resource management mechanics.

• Best used mixed into Dominion setups with other expansions for more variety and depth. (ICv2)

Note: Later Second Edition printings update and revise parts of this combined expansion, replacing or removing some cards from the original 1st Edition. (ICv2)
