The changes shown below are changes from the text in the addendum or previous edition of the Handbook.

 The "Council Fire" Adventure was renamed the "Council Fire (Duty to Country)" Adventure.

In 2020, the Protect Yourself Rules and Yo-Yo preview adventures were introduced and the notes after requirement 4 were added.
