Spelljammer did have a large variety of helms many of which did not need spellcasting anyway.

On Al-Qadim and Kara-Tur (and I guess Maztica), there is also an incentive to redeem formerly insensitive interpretations of certain cultures. Both of those settings also had a fairly loose timeline and thus canon was quite fluid and they could easily be changed. Settings that make use of...

"Apart from the mass combat and economic stuff" which is the focus of the setting? I mean sure you could perhaps change it so you kept the setting's story, kept bloodline powers but did not keep regency/war gaming/realm building but then it would just be a pretty run of the mill fantasy setting...

Btw is Al-Qadim not even mentioned? I always thought it was well received (much more so than Kara Tur or Maztica).

Birthright was made for a very different style of gameplay than what 5E was built for tbh. It would require a significant investment in design. One thing they could do is resurrect the Board Game. For me the best fit for Birthright would be an RTS that includes Hero units (think Age of Empires...

A big thing about Spelljammer was connecting the other primes or at the very least the big three from back then (Realmspace, Krynnspace, Greyspace). A lot of it would be missing without that imo. How I used it back in 4E was taking the idea of the Astral Sea and the Crystal Spheres together. If...

I'd love Planescape but I'd never call it Epic High Fantasy. My experience with it was Sigil and Faction focused with forays to the planes as sort of open dungeons. Theros' piety system is an obvious match for the Factions and I'd hope it would ignore Faction War. Ofc what it would need the most...

In essence it would be just like Spelljammer but without the Phlogiston (did people really adventure in the Phlogiston anyway???) and with added Githyanki, god corpses and Astral Dreadnoughts.

Always though Spelljammer could just be converted to Adventures into the Astral Sea instead of Adventures in Wildspace.

I would actually love if they made the effort to remake The Hordelands/Kara Tur. While it was a culturally insensitive pastiche of oriental cultures, it was also fairly low on detail and you could retcon the hell out of it as long as some basic concepts could be kept. I'd love it if they could...
