Just fucking terrifying.
(🚨) The four PROOF reports on Minneapolis—of which the last, just published, is below—have done all they can possibly do to exhaustively detail, in near-book-length form, exactly what happened there, why it happened, and why it’s the start of something far worse.

WARNING: Reader discretion advised.
Trump Administration to Criminally Investigate Beloved Mother of Three It Already Murdered—and Her Grieving Widow, Too
What this regime has already done—and is now planning to do—to a citizen its agent killed in cold blood is among the most contemptible executive-branch abuses of power America has ever seen.

I mean this sincerely, cordially, and in good humor: to anyone out there just now coming online to the fact that we have fallen under the thumb of a fascist dictator, welcome to Year 10 of some of us writing on that very subject and yes for the record we are *fucking exhausted*

Ahh welcome to the weekend my friends!

Due to an unforeseen bout of laziness on my part we've been tweet light over the past few days and thus a bit of catching up is in order!

First game up returning GM Matthias beams back down to AthCon for his Star Trek Adventurers game; First Contact.

On the 10th anniversary of the release of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" I remind @markhamillofficial.bsky.social how excited we all were when we realized how heavily he'd be featured in the movie. Yup, this trailer alone sold a million tickets!

Next game up is a bit of a banger!! A two parter 5e D&D 20th level type banger!

GM Gavin, having spent AthCons I to III scoping out what makes a great game, steps into the command chair at @AthCon4 and is most certainly not rolling dice in half measures!

Ever wondered what 20th level felt like??

You know what would make a game of Alien even more fun? And by fun I mean something that would add a few extra diceses to the Stress pool and help push that Players Survive O'Meter a few notches closer to zero?

Why an Alien worshipping cult of course!!

Said no one.

Ever.

Next game up we've GM Keith A's own take on the Honey Heist system. Around this table however, the players assume the roles of monsters looking for the ultimate crime payday - stealing the invaluable AthVentureCon Cup!!

This was run last year and all players had a blast so expect more of the same!
