A case in point is the recently-released Saga of the Rat King, the print run for which was been reported here at the Acaeum as being 300 copies. And copies are still available....Where the rubber meets the road, so to speak, from the research that I've done to this point is whether the number of actual units sold will be sufficient to cover not only the complete cost of the first module, but will also provide some funding for the next release. In other words, will the first module pay for itself and provide (to one degree or another) for a self-sustaining and self-funding enterprise?. ....

If they are present in more than one printing are there any differences between the two (e.g. the page numbers mention in thread above)? Last, if there are multiple colour illustrated printings are they all "glossy" as mentioned in the thread above?Best,Paul
