[QUOTE="Remathilis, post: 8714840, member: 7635"] A couple of thoughts. I don't have the box, FYI. 1. I think they aren't ready to tip their hand on 2024 revisions yet, except for the few things that can be edited from MMoM. Adding "typically" in front of alignment doesn't change the monster math, moving immunity to sleep from Fey Ancestry to Trance is a copy/paste fix. Removing short rests requires more work. 2. WotC still wants to sell PHBs NOW, not just in 2024. Keeping the rules compatible with the current PHB (minor formatting aside) is key. A new box set will come out in 2024 to reflect the new rules. This is a tidemeover until then. 3. I wouldn't read too much into the missing TBIF and inspiration. 5e is a lot to take in for new players and DMs already and inspiration is another rule, a highly subjective one at that, that even vet players forget. I think it was omitted for simplicity, but will be there in 2024. Likewise, I think TBIF will not be per background but a general massive list. There is only so many ways to say "I believe in justice" or "I like to drink" after all... 3a. I think the verdict on background tied to traits will be Spelljammer. UA cares about rules, not fluff so TBIFs can be omitted from UA but still show in final books. 4. I think this got trotted out as a 24 rule preview and clearly it's not. It's a teaching tool designed to whet appetite and advance players to Essentials and then the PHB. Breathe. We've got a while until we see 24 revisions. [/QUOTE]
