Notes
Two sizes confirmed by Stonemaier and GameNerdz: 183 dragon cards at 57x87mm and 75 cave cards at 57x57mm (17 Automa + 10 quick-start cards are also 57x87). Confidence check because both sizes are awkward for standard sleeves: 57x87 dragon cards sit between Standard American (56x87, snug) and Chimera (57.5x89) which many Wingspan/Wyrmspan players prefer for an easier fit; the 57x57 square cave cards have no exact standard sleeve (Small Square is 70x70, oversized).
The same sleeves fit these games
Sleeves come in packs of 100 and Wyrmspan will not use a whole pack, so it is worth knowing what else the spares cover.
- Five Crowns — 57 × 89 mm
- Scythe — 57 × 87 mm and 44 × 67 mm and 70 × 110 mm
- Sushi Go! — 57 × 88 mm
- Wingspan — 57 × 87 mm
Not every game is standard: Dixit (79 × 120 mm) and Faraway (70 × 70 mm and 44 × 68 mm) need their own size.
