[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 7897875, member: 23751"] There is no such core rule. The core rules include all of those races and classes, but the core rules do not assume that all will be available. In fact, the core rules assume that different settings will be in use, so some of those races and classes might not be available. PHB Page: 6 "All these worlds share characteristics, but each world is set apart by its own history and cultures, distinctive monsters and races, fantastic geography, ancient dungeons, and scheming villains. Some races have unusual traits in different worlds. The halflings o f the Dark Sun setting, for example, are jungle-dwelling cannibals, and the elves are desert nomads. Some worlds feature races unknown in other settings, such as Eberron’s warforged, soldiers created and imbued with life to fight in the Last War." And yes, it does call such changed House Rules, but that's because it alters what is in the PHB, not because the DM did something the core rules do not expect. Nor would it be against WotC's own rules to release a setting such as Ebberon with Warforged when the other settings don't have them, which is probably why the did release Warforged for Ebberon when they aren't in other campaign settings.
