Avalon Hill's Gen Con 2026 events are up. There will be two (recurring all throughout the con) for Heroquest: Wizards of Morcar played on the Game System, and a new con exclusive quest from Doug Hopkins played on First Light.

I'm very surprised by this (and obviously very happy). I figured they would just replay Dread On The Horizon since it's a prequel to WOM. Seems like an obvious upsell. I'm curious if it will be a pure standalone or if it's setting up an upcoming expansion.

I'm trying to collect physical copies of all quests that Stephen Baker made or at least consulted on. This means I'm after a printed copy of The Maze. I've seen people selling the 1989 questbook, but I've also seen several versions of said questbook, meaning people are clearly selling bootlegs.

Does anybody have a picture of the actual questbook so I can protect myself from bootleggers?

The Bahamas is suspending alcohol from 8:00am to 6:00pm on May 12 during their election. This will also extend to private islands like Cocoa Cay. Two Oasis-class ships are docked that day.

I'm not cruising this month so I'm not impacted, but I'm curious if anybody who is on the Symphony or Wonder that day have been told what will happen. I'm especially curious regarding how they're handling the drink package that day.

I saw Avalon Hill's Instagram reshare someone's post about the influencer was going to be playing First Light at a UK con at the end of May and it got me wondering which cons AH attends.

Are we expecting any reveals prior to Gen Con?

A ship's X-axis is parallel to the galactic plane, its Y-axis is perpendicular, and the Z-axis is parallel to the stellar plane. Makes sense, but how do ships orient themselves along the Z-axis in instances when there's no stellar plane (like when the ship is outside of a solar system) or when the plane is also parallel or perpendicular to the galactic plane?
