This Swindler's Chest includes the following items (all sold separately): Emerald Skulls (base game content) Emerald Skulls: 7-8 Player Expansion Goblin Vaults (base game content) Goblin Vaults: Gundur Pack + Chaos & Order (Mini Expansions) Swindler's Playmat Admin Note: This entry is set up to reflect the above but the Swindler's Chest was also sold with only Emerald Skulls and its expansion. This entry is also meant to represent that version too.
