I think the baseline effects would still be like those of current equipment… which would effectively turn all creatures into Frozen Shades or lands into Blessings… which wouldn’t probably be great. Add some man-lands and now you’ve got a wrath-proof fire breather. As we’ve seen with commander products (and discussed in other threads) they would likely make them everything-bagels, with both an effect and a payoff, that works off of having a creature of your own to target. I don’t want to fight too hard for this, and give the impression that I think we need them, but “equipment for lands” strikes me a very doable and potentially quite flavorful. I loved Farmstead and Caribou Range, so why not make more survivable reusable versions as equipment? It seems in-line with the power creep curve and the general themes you could introduce would contribute positively to the situational feel of games (like the rooms from duskmourn).

I think some people play with cards up to certain dates, there is a 93/94 format that only uses cards from that period, but some people add more years. If you're just playing Casual I think you can run what you want, but it might be fun to have a specific plan of what you're going to use (it also makes it a lot easier to find cards if you only use stuff from a block).
I used to use Castle when I was a kid, my main concern is that it only buffs toughness when untapped, so I guess it depends if you think that's useful enough. It's a solid card with enough Vigilance creatures (creatures that attack without tapping in old language), but not adding any power is pretty annoying. There used to be a card that offered White creatures +1/+1 from Alpha, but IIRC it's a banned card now, rarely an issue but annoying for you maybe! IIRC Farmstead is a very weak card, you'd almost be better off running another Plains from what I remember. That said, if the card has a special connection to you that's pretty normal in casual formats (I have Uncle Istvan in a Casual Commander deck), but I wouldn't run x4 of it.
If you're open to other old sets, there is Icatian Lieutenant that can buff any soldier, that would be very useful late game with multiple First Strike creatures, while Icatian Priest works on any creature (but is an awkward 3 mana to use). There is also Morale, but I think that's an actively bad card in most situations.

All very good points - Sorry for coming across as sour at the end there. It’s just that the wacky/fantastical/weirdness gets less so when there are way more non-basic jellyfish than there are basics. Three out of the thirteen are regular jellyfish with fun and interesting (albeit sometimes underwhelming) abilities. The other ten are very fantastical (one of them is a computer..?) which is fine, just not what I need for my own decks. I’m a fan of looking at how the mundane fit into the trials and tribulations of a planeswalker. I’m not nearly as interested in what Jace is whispering to Ajani as I am in whose Farmstead they’re walking past at the time.

Also, I just noticed. Ebony Horse, Shu Farmer, Remote Farm, Dueling Grounds, and Farmstead are all illegal in Modern
