When Purchasing 5E WOC Adventures

I own only the 2024 Rule books.  When i buy regular 5E (2014) adventures,  I cant use th 2024 books?  Do i have to buy the 2014 books too now?

you will need to make a jumpgate game, and enable both 2014 and 2024 character sheets.  That way you can use the 2024 books for your players and 2024 monsters, and the original adventures use the 2014 character sheets.  (someone else correct me if I am incorrect, but that should work)

Ok so we need to use 2014 character sheets. Is that for npcs or actual pcs. 

the 2014 sheets for the existing npc's in the module/adventure.  For making new NPC's or your PC's, you can use either sheet.  If you want to use the 2024 rules books though, make a 2024 sheet.  If you try and drag a 2024 item to a 2014 sheet it will tell you that you can't

Feyte is correct on all points. Neither Roll20 nor Wizards of the Coast are likely to go back and redo their back catalog to match the 2024 rules. However, they are compatible enough to largely coexist. In order to accommodate Wizard's intent of backwards compatibility, Roll20 has ensured that games created using the Jumpgate engine are capable of running the sheets in tandem.

Hmmm I fully expect WoTC to re-release all of their Modules as revised for 2024. (And Roll20 will fall in line) Like, of course they will

While they are at it, why not all the way back to OD&D... :D

??? Not sure if you mean that genuinely or jokingly, but in fact they do exactly that.&nbsp; WoTC have regularly re-released modules going back to AD&amp;D and earlier.&nbsp; Quests From The Infinite Staircase contains modules with their origins going back to 1976. And, it has already been updated to "compatible with 2024" on Roll20.&nbsp; <a href="https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/bundle/30280/dandd-quests-from-the-infinite-staircase" rel="nofollow">https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/bundle/30280/dandd-quests-from-the-infinite-staircase</a> Pretty confident, personally, that the rest of the 2014 D&amp;D modules will be forthcoming in 2024 redux, over the product lifecycle of 5.24 edition.&nbsp; WoTC keep doing product releases to drive sales. What other reasons would WoTC have for creating 2024 edition?&nbsp;

Seriously, though, WotC has the stated policy that 5e2014 modules are still viable with 5e2024. I don't think that Out of the Abyss, for instance is due for an upgrade, when its sales probably won't dramatically increase commensurate to the time and effort (and reduced headcount). Although, who knows, since they seem to be pivoting to digital content whenever possible? But realistically, I think they'd rather sell all new adventures. Else why the pivot to Greyhawk?

I hope that already purchased content isn't automatically converted. I want the few WOTC modules that I currently own to stay at the 2014 version.

Rick A. said: I hope that already purchased content isn't automatically converted. I want the few WOTC modules that I currently own to stay at the 2014 version. Wotc and Roll20 have released lots of Remastered Modules already (Mad Mage, Avernus, Strahd, etc etc etc), and any installed-games from the original non-remastered Roll20 version stayed the same. A Roll20 customer has to choose to install the Remastered version as a new Game to use it.&nbsp; This is in-contrast to Patches which do install on your existing game(s) that have a Module. Modules get patches which offer the GM (with a green pop-up on your Game Details page) a chance to run the Patch on their existing game. Even then it is not automatically pushed onto your game, but is given as an optional button that the GM can click.&nbsp; So I feel very confident that none of anyone's existing games will be automatically converted.&nbsp;
