I am trying to decide which to get. I run a normal 5e game and not a Level Up one. I own Level Up stuff from a bundle of holding but have not gone through a lot of it, mostly a bit of the monster book. I like 4e style mechanically interesting but straightforward to run at the table monsters that do not require a lot of cross referencing or fiddly little things to track. I expect stat blocks for figures like Baba Yaga to be more complex than stuff out of the base monster book, but I want a balance of cool and interesting stuff going on and easy to use at the table and understand stat blocks without a lot of new cross references.Is the Level Up version designed for people immersed in Level Up who know all the LU cross references and new mechanics or is it a better buy than the straight 5e version for a 5e person who wants more mechanically interesting but still easy to quickly pick up and use stuff?Thanks</blockquote>
