[QUOTE="darjr, post: 9205034, member: 52905"] Ben focuses in on a particular product. I never owned nor played this version. [callout]Behold! Sunless Citadel adventure path sales numbers from 2001! In honor of my book being published in paperback, I will be taking a deep look at never-before-seen D&D sales data from 2001. By the end of that year, Wizards had six adventures in that AP available for sale. Two (Sunless Citadel & Forge of Fury) had debuted in 2000, and four came out in 2001. A few things jump out at me in the data. First, I don’t see a holiday bounce in December. Second, to my eyes, sales momentum seems strong. For example, Deep Horizon sold 64% of the bestselling installment of 2001, The Standing Stone, even though Standing Stone was released in March and Deep Horizon was released in September. It would be nice to have data from 2000 to pair with this, and I do not have it. If you’re a former WotC employee with sales numbers to share with history, please DM me! In the comments, you will find the raw data for these numbers. Also in the comments, a link to buy my book if you have not yet done so! Next time, let’s look at how these numbers compare to historical data for other adventures. Stay tuned for more![/callout] [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_8976.jpeg"]334625[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_8977.jpeg"]334626[/ATTACH] [URL='http://📸 Look at this post on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/share/hVnDPEJX6j5rt47y/?mibextid=QRhQuG']Link to the Facebook post[/URL] And his book, now also in paperback. [URL unfurl="true"]https://read.macmillan.com/lp/slaying-the-dragon/[/URL] In the following post he has a comparison of Sunless Citadel sales to Darksun adventures. In the below quoted post Ben shares all 3.0 adventure sales for 2001. [/QUOTE]
