It's official... Houses of Hermes: True Lineages is the first Ars Magica 5th Edition supplement to sell through its first printing. There are still copies out there in the channels (including the ones that have been ordered by distributors this week and not yet shipped), but we have no more copies to restock our customers as they sell through their inventory.
In retrospect, we should have printed more, since the book was released just five months ago. Fortunately, we expect that this book has a shelf life of many years, so it will be worth reprinting sometime in 2006.
Congratulations to everyone who worked on the book; it has clearly won the approval of Ars Magica fans.
Sorry, as a private we don't as a rule share information on the size of print runs or sales figures.
ReplyDeleteHow long until you start selling out of the Mysteries? Your page says October 2005. Is that still a rasonable estimate?
ReplyDeleteMysteries is late, because I've been tied up with other things and haven't done all the layout/art assignment work that I have to do. I'm hoping to write a blog entry on the topic soon.
ReplyDeleteTrue Lineages was great. Want the Societies book ASAP. (No presure)
