Equal part nerd, Arsenal fan and family man.

Famously funny.

A guard called Barry that we for some reason called Bawwy.
So we all that that favourite PC right? That one PC who's been always in our heart even long after we've last adventured with them.
Maybe it's a companion that performed some heroic or hilarious act?
Or a idiot throw-away NPC who became far more of a character than the GM ever envisaged?

Welcome to twenty-twenty-five!
I hope y'all had a wonderful Xmas break!!!

With the new year comes a new game and GM Cian (new to #AthCon but an old hand when it comes to GMing), is introducing us to the zany Discworld setting!

Peace is near but not until all the diplomats have had a good fry up!

Trouble is afoot in the sleepy town of Spearwood as with only 3 days to go to the big day, the groom has gone missing!!

Table arrangements have been set, the cake is made, flowers have been delivered and the DJ is refusing to give the deposit back should the gig be cancelled!

Now you are generally either a cat person or a dog person. I'm for example, am a dog person.
Until I got a dog.
And now I'm neither.

However for those of you who are very much in Camp Cat then the game Cat Overlords, run by GM Declan of D8 Dungeon fame, may just be the game for you!

Just like the Ambassador with those row-chey we are spoiling you with tweets (tweets I say!) 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!

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 have been this way, but really not many.

The crew of the USS Sionnach have returned from deep space exploration & while the big wigs talk strategy the lower levels get shore leave!

Vital that Arsenal take all 3 points this evening and do so convincingly.

Really have to start putting relentless pressure on Liverpool!

Next game up on the chopping board is a D&D 5e adventure!

What happens when you take dead PCs from Faerun, bored gods and the devil himself Ghazdon Ramseed and mix all these ingredients together??

Why you get the perfect recipe for mayhem and mischief that is GM Rita's Hellish Kitchen scenario!

Bonkers, fast, lethal, bonkers, hilarious, crazy and also totally bonkers!

PARANOIA is soooo worth checking out.
Next game up for review is one that's always been a hit with us: it's PARANOIA!!

A game that is somewhat loosely described at 'cooperative' you take on the role of Troubleshooters who go around shooting trouble as defined by the all powerful COMPUTER!

The game is fast, lethal and often hilarious!

Rodri is of course a huge miss but what's really let City down is how few of their 'big name' players have stepped up in his absence.

They look a mid-table team and could be out of the race by the end of the month.

We are up and running!!

One game down, just about 100 more to go!
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.

And 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?

Mbappe is the new Neymar.

High reputation, talent and ability but low in output, work rate and team ethic.

I love Ben White but good Lord is Timber some player.

Incredibly press resistant, able to turn comfortably either way with the ball and with a drop of the shoulder find some space.

All those wonderful games that I won't get to play!
;-)
It's that time of year when our wonderful GMs are sending in their game blurbs for #AthCon3

Last February we ran just about 70 games and had over 30 different systems on offer.

And what game systems will we have next Feb???

Well.....
