Is there a way to import Unearthed Arcana options (like the Minotaur) into D&D Beyond Campaign options? There seem to be options to homebrew elsewhere, but not with Races.
This may be a stupid question but can anyone tell me why the "Hammering Horns" feature of the new UA race uses a reaction instead of a bonus action? I think because it's triggered by your own attack, it feels more like a bonus action feature to me, so I'm wondering what could have prompted the decision to make it a reaction.
Jeremy Crawford actually answered this exact, specific question a couple of weeks ago! You can hear it from him here (start at 39:45 if the link doesn't do that for you). The basic reason is "they already had other stuff using the bonus action".
Oh cool! Huh, well, I suppose they've at least thought about it and those reasons seem fair to me... I hadn't thought about how race/class bonus actions might be competing.
Thank you very much for the linky! :D

Does anyone know if there is any other minotaur related products on the dmsguild?
I don't know about the DM's Guild, but there is an Unearthed Arcana with some stats for them.
Here's the link for the Minotaur information on UA:

Oh, never mind, saw that it's likely going to be a rolling release as they hope to get UA into official purchasable materials. https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/dungeons-dragons-discussion/unearthed-arcana/6200-is-there-a-release-date
