I - NEW WARES and ENCOUNTERS II - THE FOURTH HUT III - THE CARPET Contents: - 5 new persons (2 copies each = 10) - 5 new animals (2 copies each except 1 of the Giraffe = 9) - 2 new utilities (2 copies each = 4) - 3 carpets - 1 new hut (2 copies = 2) - 16 new ware cards (incl. 4 new kinds of ware cards) (2 copies each = 32) 60 new cards plus one sheet of rules (and you need about 5 counters) The cards from this expansion can be combined with all the cards from the base game.
