This set of Advancement cards are for players that have the original Advanced Civilization game, but need the eastern expansion cards. Plus you get some variants.
The game requires one of these decks for each player. They are printed front and back like the originals, and laminated for durability with corners trimmed.
These sets are prohibitively expensive to have one for each player, later versions of the game simply used a check list for each player. You will not be happy with the amount of money you will need to spend for a complete set to play with. You can have 2 sets for player reference and use a checklist instead.
I do not have a checklist for the original Advanced Civilization game yet.
