But I can see partial adaptation of any one of these new Core books:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">the Monster Manual is going to have enough totally new stat blocks to be in the same territory as Volo's Guide or Tome of Foes, for instance, so I could see some DMs who don't plan to upgrade their game still deciding they want the additional Monsters and new art.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The new DMG by itself could be very attractive, for multiple reasons, such as the mini-Adventure anthology, the Setting, and clearer rules organization</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The new PHB, if the new presentation of Classes and rules ends up being attractive but the individual table doesn't see the need for new backend DM material.</li> </ul>At any rate, for budget conscious folks any one of these will be procurabble for ~$30, which around these parts is an Extra Large Pepperoni pizza or an hour and a half of minimum wage work.</blockquote>
