A: No. New troops in Rage of Elements though.
Q: Will there be revisions to the Beginner Box?
A: Revisions are minimal; no new BB edition yet. Revised intro product at some point.

A: Kinda sorta. It’s a reductive/legacy tool. Batman’s alignment remains unconfirmed by devs.
Q: What should game-masters think about the Remaster? What to look forward to?
A: Look for things you want to use in the Remaster; otherwise, content is unchanged as played. Exceptions are anything alignment-themed - GM should keep an eye out for systems affected by alignment changes.
A: Not enough changes for a 2.5 or a version change. It’s errata plus.

A: lmao no. It might go in somewhere for QoL changes.
