Roll20 mentioned one of the spells summoned army, I didn't realize you literal that was until I stumbled upon the fact that in Old Empires there is literally a 9th level Wizard Spell called Army.
Army (spell)
You create soldiers out of stone, dust, etc..., literally creating an army.

Unexpected fun fact, there will be a adult (nudity) PDF versions of the two of hardcovers as an option. Sadly no option for the adult versions IN Hardcover.
There is an option for...
I think regional settings are usually considered subsettings, although sometimes they just call them settings because its all not really codified. Heck they sometimes refer to the whole D&D multiverse as a setting.
The inside book cover map of adventures in the faerun seems to look like the map in Beetles and Grimm's DM Screen map.
Also glimpsed the Dalelands map, it appears to include not just the Dalelands, but Moonsea and The Vast, like cities like Raven's Bluff. Very detailed, not just the Dalelands...
I've been wondering about this even before the Lorwyn scandal.
To me, base minimium Toril is Forgotten Realms, but some folks concider Al Qadim or even Kara Tur as separate settings, instead of subsettings within the Forgotten Realms like Arcane Age.
Abeir is would also be 100% Forgotten...
I was honestly under the impression from stuff they said that Bastions were supposed to be added as well, so that is surprising..
I mean perhaps they will add things over time. Plus they maybe busy doing SRDs for previous editions.
No they don't. For example the 2014 version spell of lich and archmage had spell slots, there terrible idea of "simplifing" them means now its stuff like 1/day instead of spell slots.
Which by raw you can't use Circle Magic with monsters & NPCs.
Or even a feat, I suspect that at least one feat will be about Circle Magic and might offer resources to burn in the Spell Slots stead even for a pure Martial character.
So in addition to new mechanics like Bastions in the the Core, the FR books are addition Circle Magic including 19 spells with special CM effects, 8 Factions, with I think Faction Reputation, a Piety System adapted for FR, Epic Chosen Feats, some Subclasses, like Oath of the Genie that can...
I don't agree with this, there are tons of cool combos. Expanding say Spirit Guardians could be brutally effective or removing the casting cost from say Simulcrum or Imprisonment makes it more viable to use, allowing a conjurer wizard to extend his Summon Elemental say for hours could be useful...
