[QUOTE="Tyler Do'Urden, post: 8097937, member: 4601"] One thing to remember when it comes to classic settings - they've been mentioned in the core books and beyond, and to some extent I think this can give us an idea of where they plan to go and where they don't. For this reason, I can tell you one thing I know for certain: Birthright isn't on the list. It's not mentioned in the PHB or DMG, nor am I aware of any other published 5E books that make mention of it. Also, WotC largely decided two decades ago that they weren't really interested in supporting domain-level play, and I've seen nothing to indicate that has changed. I like Birthright; I like domain-level play; but there's not going to be official support for these any time soon. This is also why I doubt it will be Spelljammer - I can't recall that setting being mentioned either. OTOH, this is why I consider Mystara a possible dark horse - Mystara is mentioned a surprising number of times in official books - almost as often as Greyhawk, and more often than Dark Sun or Planescape. (Though not as often as FR, Eberron... or Dragonlance.) [/QUOTE]
