In fact, INSERT RULES HERE was a key part of the 3rd edition, and it means 5th edition is still missing full support for this previous edition.

[QUOTE="The-Magic-Sword, post: 6995990, member: 6801252"] So part of my feelings on this, is that 5e was sold to me as a unifying edition- meant to appeal to fans of all editions, and quite frankly, the core books walk the line pretty well considering the difficulty of that proposition. But a big part of that, and one of the core designs of 5e, was a certain "modular, sliding scale of complexity" (as the legends and lore column suggested) where the inclusion of different rules expansions for a variety of sub systems could be used to calibrate the game to the group's individual tastes. Now, the core books do have this design represented, feats and multiclassing, rest and healing variants, honor and sanity, DMG combat options (marking, tumble, flanking, etc.) But i don't think 5e is really there yet- i use a LOT of homebrew material to give players the character option amounts they would prefer. At the end of the day, im not too worried, they more or less have to keep releasing content, so the edition will get there eventually.
