So you have D&D saying, Wizards saying, we sold more than 124,000 plus 20%. You know, and then to say, and even if they're counting digital, right? And you can, it's still... It seems 3700 is just it would mean, I don't know, you know, people have vastly changed their purchasing. And the thing is, we got to remember that, like the fans online are not representative of all fans, right? Like,

All those player handbook sales for 2014 didn't come from the few invested people we see posting on EN World, right? It's a very wide network of disparate people who buy in disparate ways. For them to all shift to D&D Beyond would be bizarre.

I mean, I kind of feel like I have to. I own the Spelljammer vinyl that came out previously. And, you know, I always I still don't have a physical copy of the Sharn City of Towers music that came during third edition and in the back of that book. So I need to get that one of these days because that's such an awesome piece. I think the Spelljammer wasn't quite as good as that.

It's fun, but it's sort of wacky. Maybe deliberately so. I think deliberately so. So, you know, we'll see how good this is. Hopefully we can do some, you know, little previews and stuff. There's not a link yet on when it comes out or where we can purchase it, but it's apparently going to be 50 bucks and you can get it on a double vinyl or digital. We'll see.

Yeah, yeah. I ran it back when it was being playtested, and then I was working with many, many DMs who ran it for many, many, many, many, many players at PAX West. It's a cool adventure. I highly recommend it. It's fun. Will Doyle and Stacey Allen wrote this. They write such good, flavorful stuff. And it feels like the cartoon, right?

I mean, one thing you know about Will and Stacey, they understand the assignment, right? Even if their assigners don't know it, they know it. And so you get a very cartoon-like experience. You've got bully wugs and you've got... you know, Kalak and Venger and angles going in and that are very fun and cartoonish. And, and yeah, I totally think it's a great one shot.

I will say the pregens have these magic items that are really, really strong. Not only are they, you know, 2024 characters, but these magic items, I mean, Bobby can create the Fisher with his, you know, hammer and, and, uh, The cleric Nico can like summon an angel multiple, multiple times, which is way too many. One would be fine or really too strong, maybe even.

But so that that makes it really strong, which is fine for this one shot because you want the kid cartoons to win.

um but if you do decide to make a campaign out of it you will want to fine-tune those magic items to not have a blow away or if you want to play this with their own characters realize that they won't have the magic items that make them as strong as as you have in this version there you go oh oh mini corner with teo sales

Well, you know, WizKids has a weird lag time on everything. They'll announce a thing. It'll take forever to come out like the Vecna minis are just coming out now, which is like what? And I think the anniversary minis just came out like a month ago. So, you never know with them, but they announced a new visible box set with seven pre-painted minis based on the Baldur's Gate 3 characters.
