Unearthed Arcana Where is the new Unearthed Arcana article?

Are we talking kender, or investment bankers?

Heh, I'm now envisioning Kendermore as looking like those news shots of the New York Stock Exchange, just with more topknots.

This looks like it's the new UA:

Seems like "if you want new classes, make them yourselves for the time being".

WotC has said that they're trying to avoid feature creep. In light of this, new material will likely only be released in conjunction with new modules, or updates to campaign settings, in which the new options are relevant, e.g. the Artificer only being added when an update to Eberron is released.

The artificer was in the first UA article.

I know, but I chose not to include it, as that content is very much WIP, and doesn't really count as an official release.

That is true, but it is an official release from WotC, as opposed to the 100 or so homebrew versions that people of created. If an when an official version is released, it will be closer to the one we have already seen.

I'm excited about this new article. Someone in my group has been working on a new homebrew class (fighter subclass), and this gives us some guidelines to help us be sure we're making an effective one.

Indulge me for a moment. Can you list a few things that WOTC could say in an article of this type, which you would find no fault with?

While I'm not interested in the particular example options (don't fit my settings), I do appreciate the general and class-specific design guidance.

One example is that I have a player in a one-shot who is playing a rogue-monk and I'm allowing (per his request) to sneak attack with martial arts. The fact that WotC is outright saying that you aren't intended to be able to do that makes me feel more comfortable in saying that it won't be allowed in my longer games.
