An absolute unabashed cash grab. Stores cards vertically so they end up warping in storage. The ONE foam block they've included won't hold anything in place as it's a different shape than the space it's supposed to fill. The components that come IN Conclave (the day/night banner) don't actually fit in the box in any meaningful manner.. The original game rarely warrants more than the original four player card sets. The totem cards (all twelve of them) are the only reason to want this product and twelve cards are simply not worth the asking price for an empty cardboard box. For an "expansion" that's marketed as a storage solution, it completely fails to serve that purpose. At the time Conclave was released, the Broken Token insert, at almost half the price of Conclave, stored all Mystic Vale cards and components and had a much nicer component tray than AEG included in this total white elephant. The BT insert also fits in the original MV box. The fact that Broken Token now makes an insert for this is a complete slap in the face for AEG; the "storage solution" needs a third party storage solution.

Box for base+1st+2nd+3rd + space for many more. Conclave system (6 conclaves a game for setup, can save 3 conclaves). Totems - like leaders, big powers each turn/1 time. 5th-6th players cards. Spirit Counters. Day/Night variant to speed up the game (2 turns at the same time), with each have own offering.

Mystic Vale is a fun take on the drafting formula, and, importantly, the Conclave expansion is my first exposure to the idea of 2 players taking turns simultaneously in games with more players. The system is very clever, making 5 and 6 player games much quicker than they would otherwise be. Mystic Vale's fantasy theme is also very fun and makes for some really cool and powerful moments when your engine really starts coming together. Great game!
