So it's probably fitting that our next GM features on the day that #AthCon4 gets to hang up our Sold Out sign. Yes we've sold out!! Only tickets left are those for mini adventures (that's under 12s) and NPCs (that's folks that don't want to game but mind mini people and soak up atmosphere).

This mousey adventure early Sunday and again that evening so grab your seat at it soon as seat bookings are now open! We're down to just crumbs when it comes to available tickets but you still have time to get your hands on some. Just!! Www.athventurecon.ie

Don your teeny tiny suit of armour, pick up your toothpick lance and prepare to fight off warrior roaches and many other fearsome, if miniature, dangers in GM Ben's Mausritter adventure; Wizard of Arms & Armour! The party all play miceses in this rules-light fun system that is always popular!

So excited to come back for AthCon again this year! Also, I'm just now realising I've got a rodent theme going because my other two games at AthCon4 are Mausritter...

Hoooonnnkkk!!! Yes we have at #AthCon4 we have not one but two chances to run with the gooseseses! GM Cathlin returns with a trio of games the first one being The Great Cake Heist (a H.O.NK. game system) where you play geeseseses in gang warfare against those evil ducks in Phoenix Park!

First game up is GM Declan, one of the crew from the awesome D8 Dungeon, and To Be Or Not To Be....A Good Boy! This is a barking mad take on the Everyone Is Jack game system where players take on the role of various personalities within....(paws for effect)...Fido the prize winning dog!!

🎅🏼Looking for a last minute gift for a geek in your life? We've got you covered! 🎟️Tickets to AthVentureCon will provide a day or two of adventure for your loved one AND raise funds for our amazing @athenryadventurers

Book your spot at Keith's table as soon as bookings open—you won't regret it! And, as per the second message in the thread, if you wanna play D&D in a castle (of course you do!), follow his D+D Eire account for info on those events.

I'd like to say a couple of things about UKGE and their silence in regards to the whole AI debacle. I'll start with a disclaimer: I know UKGE is a HUGE opportunity for many small businesses and publishers, and in the current unstable financial situation we're all in, skipping it because of ethical>

It's been amazing to game with so many great people in 2025, and I still can't believe we made the Top 10% A massive thank you to everyone who watches along and supports us--the EC community are a bunch o' legends!

I'd love it if we could get @imirt.bsky.social 's Curator Page on #Steam to 1000 followers before #Christmas ! #IrishGameDev #IndieDev #GameDev #IrishCreatives #IrishGameDomination #SpeirGhorm #IndieGame store.steampowered.com/curator/4145...

You love to see it! Personally running Mausritter for the kids and Shadowdark for the big kids (a.k.a the "adults"). Roll on AthCon4! Can't wait

Our Shadowdark stream returns tonight! The party passed through the Ashwood and into the hills on their journey to Tyred, and despite some grave omens, emerged unscathed. Will they make it safely to the market town or will death and destruction cross their path once more before they reach it?

Our Shadowdark game 'Against the Crimson Queen' continues tonight at 7pm GMT! On the journey to Tyred, the party passed through the mountains, aiding an injured explorer, avoiding a hungry horned giant, and fighting off the nocturnal attack of a flock of dire vultures. Next up—the Ashwood.

We’re LIVE with our Daggerheart Finale over on Twitch now! Join the gang as they set their sights on the centre of the Dreamsphere and seek to end the threat to Horizon’s Hollow once and for all. www.twitch.tv/emerald_coll...

That's the 5k goal hit for @projecthopeorg.bsky.social! 😱 Thanks to our GM @spongeonmaster.bsky.social and all of our players tonight! As well as tonight's prize donors @arcdreampublishing.bsky.social and @dungeondepths.bsky.social 🥰 We'll see you next week for round 2 and a new goal! 💸

@jogbrogzin.bsky.social is getting my vote for the #CRITAwards' Best Map Designer. It was a tough choice to make since the other nominees are also incredibly accomplished artists whose work I admire, but Jog won out for me this year!

Excited to get back to the campaign! Been away from the Shadowdark for too long 🔥

Against the Crimson queen returns tonight! After a pitched battle against goblin invaders, the party are bloodied and bruised. But there is no time to rest and so they must push on once more, deeper into the Shadowdark...

To all my fellow TTRPG publishing folks (or creators of all kinds, really), make sure you avail of this *phenomenal* deal while you have the chance. Unlimited commercial use of over $18,000 worth of fonts for under $20? Insane! You've got until Sunday to snag 'em!

Another excellent piece by the Journal on trans healthcare in Ireland. The "National Gender Service" sends threatening letters to GPs to stop trans people easily accessing blood tests which are a routine safety measure when taking hormones. I know it's hard to believe but it's true! #speirgorm

I'm both excited and reticent to return to Candlekeep tonight after what went down last session... The aftermath is gonna be a doozie!

It's starting to feel a bit real and the excitement is beginning to bubble! On Friday night, I'll be GMing Blades in Dark with @emeraldcollective.bsky.social live on stream. Sharing the game I love with the people I like!

On the subject of me forgetting to self-promo😅🤭 Did you know I have a ton of modules and settings and stuff for D&D 5e? Like this lawless treetop setting & adventure inspired by Romani (ie - my own) culture, history and mythos? With ✨HUMAN ART✨ legacy.dmsguild.com/product/4090...

I've added about 50 new images + variations to my public domain art pack. This set of images are all edits of the work of Johann Wagner and are mostly castles, ruins, and a few other structures like arches, bridges and towns. seedling.itch.io/modified-pub...

Don't mind me, just passing my time as we slide gradually into a dystopian future by forcing Google's AI to make a meta-commentary about itself.

Henry Blodget? I have no idea who this fucking loser is, but he has the name of a Roald Dahl character.

There are times when my conviction that every other human being is possessed of a rich inner life shaped by their experience of the world is tested to its limits.

Been looking forward to getting back to our main campaign. Left on quite a cliffhanger! 💣💥💀 It's in the dice's hands now! 🎲

Pavee Point have launched this handy portal for Traveller arts and cultural projects. You can find projects by type, or by organisation, and find projects near you! Real neat. www.paveepoint.ie/artsmapping/

We are a day away from our next amazing guest! But who is @tallnerdapollo.bsky.social playing and what do they have to do with the Temple of Power? Join us tomorrow 7pm BST/8pm CEST as we join our friends on a new chapter of our story! #tabletoproleplay #actualplay #ttrpg #dnd #5e

Trans rights and trans liberation now. Anyone with a heart or a soul is sick of this evil shit and how it's taken over the UK - not to mention it's the tip of the spear, as we've been warned by our trans siblings so many times. No forgiveness or pity for transphobes, in government or outside of it.

On what is a really difficult day, here are some resources for our trans friends and allies. Solidarity 💜 goodlawproject.org/resource/sup...

British trans people have a common travel area with Ireland, btw. You can live and work here without a visa or any other requirements.

Here's the stock art getting down at the end of the month, so this is the best time to get them at their best price. After that, these posts will be available only for purchase. www.patreon.com/posts/posts-... #ttrpg #stockart #indierpg

Congratulations to all of the @imirt.bsky.social Award Winners of #FÍSGamesSummit and also DON'T FORGET @dungeonsandnaggins.bsky.social SPANSION PASS LAUNCHES ON KICKSTARTER NEXT TUESDAY 15TH OF APRIL! 😂🤣 www.kickstarter.com/projects/dun...
