[QUOTE="Remathilis, post: 9431469, member: 7635"] That's OP's prerogative of course, but I don't find that any harder than incorporating Flee Mortals! or much of Kobold Press's collection of spells and classes. Or even using Post-Tasha races and backgrounds in D&D. The rules have already shifted enough that playing a MotM race had slight advantage over a PHB race. Certainly, I'd never play a pre-Tasha sorcerer subclass without house ruled bonus spells! Which really comes down to three concerns the OP needs to figure out: 1. How much does he value Official support? Because WotC books going forward will need conversion to make them backwards compatible. 2. How much did he value 3pp support? There is a lot of stuff right now, but the vibe has already shifted towards either 24 edition support OR the 3pp's in-house variants of 5e. Out of the box compatibility is going to get harder to find. 3. How much duck tape is he willing to use to keep the rules working? As it stands right now, pre-Tasha 5e has different assumptions than post-Tasha. And 24 has a lot of quality of life minor bug fixes that help eliminate pain points. Is he comfortable with house ruling some elements back in? Hell, is he comfortable using post-Tasha options even? In short, he's going to have to put in the work to keep it running unless he's content with the finite pool of options (even if that pool is large thanks to 3pp and DMs Guild). [/QUOTE]
