Expansions: Players who do not own an expansion pack can not play modules with content from that expansion pack. That was always the case and will never change. People who have HotU can play on SoU flagged modules, but people who only have SoU can not play on HotU servers.

Further:
Sorry I need to clarify. HotU does not contain SoU tilesets, etc, so you need SoU to play on SoU flagged modules.

Changing outfit: Changing robes is free (DC 0). Changing armor DC is dependent on how many parts you change at once, with the highest DC counting (Torso 17 or 19 I think, neck or glove ~DC 12). Changing weapon DC ranges between 11 and 17. Crafting new objects is between 10 and 19 depending on the object, up to 30 for "special materials"

Further:

Quote: I'm thinking you wouldn't want to mod it to have a totally different armor class -- just a torso within that same class, maybe different gloves, a different neck piece, etc.

That wouldn't work anyway - since players wear the armor while modifying it, changing torso could potentially allow them to create armor they could not wear due to missing proficiencies - thus we don't allow changing the torso outside of the current armor type choise.
