That is kinda what I am talking about.  I don't think today this moment we have 6e PHB in our hands. I think we have the lead up to something... weather they call it 5.5 6e, or something else (I would not have guessed essentials or 3.5) but when those new books come for the 50th it WILL most likely be new... the problem I have is that I fear WotC is going to try to eat there cake and have it too. they will say "It's still 5e" and make enough changes that requires some verbage to explain what 5e you ar eplaying... BUT not address all of the foundation flaws so they can pretend it is not a new edition. yeah, I mean I will use some, and not others... again my table already does it's own thing.  I have even tried more than once to bring in WoD style backgrounds and TORG style mixed with 4e style skill challanges... (They all suck cause I am not a designer but I tried)the thing is that it will NOT stay to just enworld. I was at Gencon when people told me "If you like 4e you don't understand D&D"... and the idiot that told me that wasn't alive when I started playing.</blockquote>
