About The El Grande Expansions

In a single package, The El Grande Expansions combines English versions of both of the El Grande expansions released up to that point. Both expansions change the game significantly and may be used independently or together. The first expansion is King and Intrigue, which combines the priority cards and action cards into one single mechanism. This changes the game extensively, so that many describe it as a different game played with the El Grande board.
