Just like the Ambassador with those row-chey we are spoiling you with tweets about upcoming games at #AthCon3 When we first came up with the idea to run a little Con one of the first out of the traps to support us were Dylan and the rest of the @hearthfiretales.bsky.social crew!

Forget maps, or minis, or calculating movement or any of that structure type stuff that just gets in the way of fun! This game is pure theatre of the mind & Dylan is nothing if not pure theatre! We're delighted to have the @hearthfiretales.bsky.social crew back at #AthCon3!!

Next game up we've one by a first timer at #AthCon, as either a GM or a player. But GM Paul F seems determined to make up for lost time by running 4 games over the 2 days of #AthCon3! First one of Paul's that we focus on is his 8th Level D&D game The Horror Within!

The party investigate strange goings on at Monveau theatre where a new play by a rising playwright Bertrand Gillard has not been the career launchpad he was hoping for. Seems that the audience have either all gone missing or mad!! Guess some people just ain't made for the stage

Due to a bout of laziness yesterday we didn't post any game information. However, due a combination of it being the weekend & a desire to atone for our sloth we will put up two games this evening! Don't forget tickets for the World's Best Con* #Athcon at Www.athventurecon.ie

Next game we throw our eye over is GM Wayne's as he takes us boldly where no one has gone before. Well maybe a few, but really not many. The crew of the USS Sionnach have returned from deep space exploration & while the big wigs talk strategy the rest get shore leave!

Sounds like relaxing fun right?? Naturally some things go awry and others things go afoot and before anyone can say 'phasers to kill' the crew find themselves in the middle of a right old mess! Even a Ferengi wouldn't give you odds on the crew getting these holiday days back!!

Next game up on the chopping board is a D&D 5e adventure! What happens when you take dead PCs from Faerun, bored gods & the devil himself Ghazdon Ramseed and mix all these ingredients together?? You get the perfect recipe for mayhem & mischief that is GM Rita's Hellish Kitchen!

This fully flavoursome game promises to be a serious mouthful with a real risk of players biting off more then they can chew! So only experienced players & >18 will be granted a seat at this table! The good news is that knowledge of food may just save you from hungry demons!

Next game up for review is one that's always been a hit with us: PARANOIA!! A game that is somewhat loosely described at 'cooperative' you take on the role of Troubleshooters who go about shooting trouble defined by the all powerful COMPUTER! The game is fast & lethal!

We could tell you more about it but that would require a Security Clearance and not having one can result in death. As can asking about one, knowing about one or even thinking about one. Computer has a few fried chips to don't say I told you. Because that can result in death.

So at some point way, way back in the annals of time, something seismic happened that ultimately brought all to where we are here today. When it came time to throw out of first game tweet (tweet I says) about #AthCon3 it made perfect sense to start at the very beginning, right?

D&D is now over 50 years old & at #AthCon3 we are giving folks the opportunity to experience the game as it was! Long time friend of the #AthCon & the person for whom the phrase "forever DM" was coined, GM Gus will be running the classic Tomb of Horrors scenario with 1975 rules.

So we've been running some numbers and with 100+ (that's a one with two zeros after it!) RPG games to chose from over the two days next Feb does that make #AthCon3 the biggest table top gaming event on the island??? We think it just might!!

AthCon2 in just 2 days had an amazing 36 GMs, representing a staggering 31 different games systems, over an eye-watering 73 game sessions. They said it was impossible to improve on that. Impossible you say.....

We will be doing a little bit of rearranging this year, so we will have incredibly limited numbers. Last year we had to turn down some amazingly talented vendors, so please don't wait! The form won't be open for long!
