Yes, yes, and yes. We need a rule for *daily random encounters* at a minimum, and probably for getting lost in the wilderness.
Sure hourly, isn't too far off of the classic 1 to 6 times per day check. But I think we can capture the spirit of the classic rules by reducing random encounters to 2 or 3 per day (say, twice during the day and once when camped overnight). I certainly hope it is included as a component of the exploration modules, since I love random wilderness encounters and long...

I'm also glad that they're taking a good look at how to better model social situations and restore some sanity to the process. At the same time, I'm going to play devil's advocate for dice.
Often -- and it's not at all clear to me if this is what you're doing or not, so my apologies if any offense is taken -- people put a roleplaying approach to games on one end of a spectrum and mechanical approach on the opposite end. That doesn't really make sense, as the goal of good mechanics is to...

slaad and modrons... both seem to exist in a vaccuum
neither interact with the blood war, githyanki, celestials, sigil or the prime material, they just patiently wait in their outer planes for someone to rock up
how about link Slaad into bullywugs or kuo toa?
i don't like the idea of slaad being abherrations, since abherrations are from beyond the great wheel/cosmos, not one chaotic aligned part of it. having said that, you could easily say ALL abherrations come from Limbo

I like the prehensile tail - I use something like that (in my games Kobolds are deamonlings).
I don't like the connection to dragons - I don't like the weakest creatures to be tied to the most powerful in some contrived family bond. To be clear, I have nothing against Kobolds. In fact, some of my best monsters are Kobolds! I believe Draconians (Dragon Lance) cover the humanoid-dragon niche quite well.
Anyway, you forgot to post the picture of a Kobold from 2e - you know, the one with...
