Blog - #Airecon 2026 After Action Report
TL;DR: my write up of the Harrogate based convention which features boardgames and #ttrpgs - or as the convention describes it "an analogue gaming event".

The Bayern mission will take its crew to explore the Pleiades, over 400 light years from Earth. Weβre using the Mongoose republication of 2300 AD and its revised version of the Bayern campaign. (I got it in a recent Bundle of Holding.) Iβm planning to run this for some of you (you know who you are) so maybe you shouldnβt listen to the actual adventure.
