Yeah, and in this case, you know, that kind of wording of the weapon can't be used was in the 2014 version. And so they could have gone through and improved that, but they didn't, right?

But if you're going to be tweaking every little block of text and you did change this up, you know, why? Why didn't you? Yeah, I don't know. And maybe they didn't care about that or, you know, who knows? They're human. Maybe they didn't think about that situation. But yeah, it's interesting.

Yeah, and that's interesting because a number, and we'll see this and there's another monster preview that sort of has this, but some monsters have gear and some don't. One assumes when they don't list it as gear, there's an endless number of sticky nets, I guess, right? But it's an interesting thing to say.

yeah and in fact like the strange spear that it has uh right you know it it is only melee melee but a lot of the ones that are range will just say like and it returns to you it's like you know but if it doesn't you know does it matter you know it's yes not listed as gear and yeah

Yeah, which is good. I mean, I'm all for if a monster works well enough, You know, you don't have to mess with it. What we see also in this preview is the war horse skeleton, the minotaur skeleton, the flaming skeleton. And it was funny to hear Jeremy talk about, you know, and we brought back the flaming skeleton. It's like, yeah, okay.

I had that in addition to go, but yeah, but you know, we get a few more types here and this is like an example of that idea of adding more to the, the monster manual that it's core. Yeah.

So this example and some of the others, too, made me wonder, you know, going back to that at the summit where they were talking about how they were going, all books will remain in use and are valid with the exception of Tasha's and Xanathar's. Well, we're going to use so much material from those. that we will reprint those with new things in them.

And we actually didn't see that much from Tasha's and Xanathar's make it into the core rules. And here's another thing where, and maybe this is deliberate because they didn't say we're going to reprint Mordenkainen's or anything like that. But I was just curious whether we would see one of the many cool skeletons we've seen in other books. And the answer seems to be no.

that generally we're not going to pull a monster out of another source. Maybe we'll see some exceptions to that, but it doesn't look like they've gone through and said, oh yeah, let's pull in this really neat monster that appears in Mordenkainen's or in Van Richten's or any of those.
