Dominion: Intrigue

I just played a few games of Dominion on BrettspielWelt, and saw some cards I hadn’t seen before:

Upgrade
+1 Card, +1 Action. Trash one card from your hand to gain a card costing exactly one more. Cost 5.
Nobles
Either +2 Actions or +3 Cards, your choice. Also, worth 2 Victory Points at game end. 6 cost. (The interface for this one on BSW is a bit weird. You have to click on the card image in the play area of the window.)

From this, I assume the expansion set is out, or close to it. BoardgameGeek says the new set is called Dominion: Intrigue, and it can be played as a stand-alone, without the original. It’s got a full set of Treasure and Victory cards, 25 new kinds of Kingdom cards, and rules for playing with up to eight players.

I see on the BoardgameGeek forms that there were copies at Origins, so I expect [info]mnemex has already picked one up. There’s some discussion of the new cards here, and here are descriptions of 11 of the cards, but I don’t see a comprehensive list with full descriptions.

[info]mnemex and I both have it already.

There's four new victory cards: duke (5 cost, 1 vp per duchy in your deck), great hall (3 cost, 1 vp, +1 card, +1 action), harem (6 cost, 2 vp, 2 treasure), and the one you saw.

It's definitely higher in weird cards than the original.

He also has the second expansion for Race.

My order of the second RftG expansion is on its way and I'm waiting excitedly for it. Given the reception that Dominion got from [info]sammywol I don't see me picking up Dominion: Intrigue soon unfortunately.
