The Base Cards were released as their own set in June 2012, including enough cards for up to four players. The set includes all of the base cards released before {{Set|Dark Ages}}, with new art for every card in the set.

In 2018, the Base Cards were reprinted with the updated formatting used in the [[Second Edition]] [[Base]] set. This reprint also gave the standalone Base Cards their own unique icon.

For the main game see Dominion (Base Set) and for the product containing only basic cards see Base Cards.

Basic cards (or Base cards) are those cards in the Supply (or players' starting decks) that are not Kingdom cards. Dominion (published in 2008) introduced Copper, Silver, Gold, Estate, Duchy, Province, and Curse as basic cards, and other expansions have added to their ranks.

Since the publication of the Base Cards pack in 2012, basic Treasure, Victory and Curse cards have had new, individual illustrations.

The Base Cards were released as their own set in June 2012, including enough cards for up to four players. The set includes all of the base cards released before Dark Ages, with new art for every card in the set. These cards can be added to the base set or Intrigue (First Edition) to play with five or six players, or used to play Dominion with an expansion that does not include base cards.

While the set includes Potion, Alchemy is required for Potion to have a use; and it is recommended to only use Platinum/Colony when playing with Prosperity.

In 2018, the Base Cards were reprinted with the updated formatting used in the Second Edition Base set. This reprint also gave the standalone Base Cards their own unique icon.
