There are also several [[Promo|promotional]] cards that are typically made for gaming conventions, a set of [[Base Cards]] for adding players or replacing worn cards, and a number of [[Big_Box|combined]] and "special edition" sets built from pre-existing expansions. Notably, {{Set|Cornucopia}} and {{Set|Guilds}} have been re-released in a combined and, in later years, revised edition ({{Set|Guilds & Cornucopia}}) to include additional materials ({{Set|Coffers|Coffers mats}}, {{Card|Bane|Bane marker}}).

=== Different total numbers of cards ===

{{Quote
+
|Text=<p>Jay would just repeat to me (if I asked), that I should make the expansion as good as it can be and then he'll deal with what cost or whatever that means. But I do nevertheless take into account the tokens/mats; they're an extra cost, and it's nice if the expansions are the same price.</p>
+
<p>There's no special time I decide the size. I work on the set and gradually have more cards and more of an idea of what tokens/mats/landscapes/non-supply cards are in it. At some point I feel like, this wants to be this many cards. These days the size tends to be as large as it can be while including the other components.</p>
