I'm not a huge fan of including the Astral Plane in this, but I can pull out what I don't like without an issue. I am the excite!

Here's the clarification. I for one am glad, Phlogiston was always a little too complicated.

Im curious how the "leave your system" works. Or for all the transitions exactly.

And, in the end, if you want to still have the Phlo, it would take like zero work to add it back.

Seems odd that the Rock of Bral is in the Astral Sea now and not Wildspace. Originally iirc it was supposed to be a travelling asteroid but later books I believe the Tethyr book officially placed it in the Tears of Selune in Realmspace. Ugh change for the sake of change makes me apprehensive.

Trivial to put back in. Now about those crystal spheres...

 

[Zarithar]

Anyone else notice that the Star Frontiers races have now been basically brought over to 5e? Renamed of course... but definitely present. This looks great!

Seems they aren't using the Astral Plane and Astral Sea interchangeably in the product description are they?

 

[Storyteller Hero]

It’ll be interesting to see how they handle this. Especially is the phlogiston and crystal spheres are out for 5E. Will the stop people from mentioning them or let it slide?

It might be possible to have one's cake and eat it too. I'm pretty sure I can incorporate both the apparent Astral Sea change together with the crystal spheres + phlogiston, making it compatible (more or less) with both the 5e book and the previous edition books simultaneously. I've been doing something similar with Nine Hells lore in an Asmodeus pamphlet I'm currently writing. The 4e books tried to describe the Nine Hells as planetary layers (underground after Avernus) rather than planar layers, which made it an interesting challenge to combine it with the previous editions' outdoor realm descriptions.

I'm still not a huge fan, but the book may convince me otherwise. Or I'll change it. Either way, it's not a problem.

It doesn't look like change for the sake of change. It looks like change for the sake of making the prior element more useful in the new situation.

Suppose that is a matter of opinion and the Rock of Bral can be placed wherever a DM wants. Guess we'll have to wait and see when the book comes out where they place it.
