What is the best expansion pack to get for Dominion?

It depends on how many people you have playing at the same time - if you are looking for sheer player expansion either Intrigue or the Dominion Base Cards set would do the trick. If you are a newer player definitely go with Intrigue first, then as you grow more accustomed to the game I'd go with Prosperity, Seaside, Guilds, and Dark Ages though not necessarily in that order. Honestly I do not believe there is a wrong answer as far as the best expansion.

This is a highly controversial question. I personally like Intrigue as the first expansion pack to get because: a) it allows you to play with up to 6 players, making the game more flexible (others don't do that); b) it was the first expansion released; c) it adds a lot to the game play without introducing totally new mechanics (easier to learn) like some of the other expansions do.

I've only played 1 expansion and that was Intrigue. It allows you to play with more than 4 people.

Really, they are all good and different. I like prosperity, it adds a new dimension to the game and seaside is a close second, and Alchemy third.

That is just the addd-on. You needed to get the original game that included the expansions. Now you have to buy disc with original game.

It depends on several factors. If you have four or fewer people who will be playing, and you don't want to deal with a lot of setup, then get the Family Edition. If you have four or fewer people playing, and you want to have very flexible setup that can be entirely random, get the classic (the one in this bundle). If you have more than four people who want to play, this bundle includes the 5-6 player expansion. That was why I got this one :)

Check out the expansions. I believe that is one expansion with rebels that allows players to "attack" each other and take over others' planets.

This comes with World of Warcraft, World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade, World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King, and World of Warcraft: Cataclysm. The only current expansion it doesn't have is World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria.

I love the Intrigue set...but I would still recommend starting with the base game. There's still quite a lot of variety to be had without expansions. Intrigue awards the "choose" mechanic which isn't in the base game, as well as cards that are both a victory card AND something else. Intrigue is still worth it...but I still have to recommend base game first. Now, that said, what I REALLY recommend is the "Big Box" available here on Amazon. It has the base game plus two expansions. It is completely worth it!

Not in the base game, but I've heard one of the expansions adds more interaction.

No...the faction expansion is seperate and gives u another colour...the packs just offer a few new cards.I have the base game the faction expansion and the asteroid belt and i feel that gives me enough variety for this game...If u like this game u may also like Euphoria castles of burgundy and roll for the galaxy that have dice mechanics as well.

Faction Packs are extra factions. You'd still need the base game and the factions expansion (which comes with several factions). If you want even more Alien Frontiers they have Booster Packs (which add extra cards), Faction Packs that have 1 additional faction and the new expansion Outer Belt. The boosters are not random. Each number is a specific faction or set of cards.

Numerical seems like a good approach(1 then 2 and so on). The expansions contain no content that requires a previous expansion. There are 'themed' expansions that do not have a number but are associated with time period or some such thing ( I bought the 90's expansion and the first two 'regular'). So there is no real order required, any set will mix well with the original edition.

Yes. You have to have the original game to use this expansion kit. It literally has four extra sides to make the original game board bigger and has extra hex pieces for the land in the middle and two extra sets of roads, cities, and settlements for the extra two players. Well worth the money if you want to play more than four players. We love this game so much, I have this one set up for 5-6 players and the Star Trek Version of Catan for only 4 or less!!

I think I have the second edition Plus the factions expansion I think they are out with a fourth edition this year and a new expansion is coming out DEC this year. I don't think the faction expansion is worth it I hardly ever play it. If you need more info go to www.boardgamegeek.com

Dominion is my wife and I favorite game. Race for the Galaxy (with alien artifacts) is our 2nd favorite. They are different games but you should like both. Check out Marvel Legendary if you like deck builders. It is SUPERBMr, Tom

The expansion packs give you a bit more variety. There are tons more cards to use, but also they are a bit more tame compared to the original game, or at least in my group of players. There are still a few cards that stand out, but over all, they are a bit on the mild side by comparison.

There aren't enough cards in the expansion pack to play with. I recommend you buy the original game and get the expansions as you can.

Nope! This version serves as a base set (victory cards and treasure cards), so it will work in place of the original if you're using an expansion
