Ok so this forum sees almost no traffic but to the few Birthright grognards
What do we think the chance of this fantastic setting seeing a resurrection under the new system. It's an admittedly easy convert for the most part from what the basic/starter set .PHB previews are showing but I'd love to see some official action.
me too.
I love this setting and tried to shoehorn into 4e with some success but lacking what I felt was the right 'feel'.
Really loving the possibilities I'm seeing with 5e, lots of little layers that make it feel much more like a new coat rather than a complete change in style
Well it's decided my players will be gaming in Cerillia with the 5e rules and I'll be damned if that wasn't an easy conversion despite a general lack of helpful commentary on these boards.
I was thinking of a simple set of houserules like this to get me going with my own game. Despite my desire for setting purity I've allowed for the possibility of non-standard elements in my BR game.

Rules Options
Bloodlines
At 1st level the player may choose to have a tainted bloodline and rolls to see which Divine heritage they end up with. Mechanically this will have no effect except to enable access to arcane magic.
Option: Players may roll on the bloodline tables to see if they have a stronger bloodline and abilities at the cost of their next available feat or stat advancement.
Magicians
This class will be represented by taking the ritual caster feat; I feel this adequately represents the weaker form of human magic pre-Deismaar.
Adurians
Neither the Tiefling nor human population of Aduria may roll on the bloodline tables. They may however choose freely from the Warlock & Monk classes.
