Well, I looked at the games on the tables, but as I know the system very well, I opted to play other games instead - Horisont is as much about discovering new land and people as it is about promoting one's favourite games :)

Spicker ran the games in a true story-telling manner which linked the two boards whether Treshold succeded or failed the first game. Nicely done!

And I experienced to be considered geek-ish by another attendee, because I picked up a model and exclaimed: "Ah, Hound of Tindalos!"  lol

I realise this is way overdue, but you shouldn't be cheated of some pictures of the Strange Aeons tables from Horisont III.

The two tables


The first table sent the Treshold team to interrogate a cultist leader living in a secluded cabin in the woods.


A dice was rolled to determine if the path the agents took led them to the cabin of the cultist or to the crypt (where a rather nasty lurker would appear). The cabin and crypt would only be placed on the table after the dice roll which occured when the agents had line of sight to the area.


the agents have unfortunately stumbled upon an ancient crypt in the woods...


A shanty town (or Hooverville as the term would be for the period) where cultists waited to ambush the unsuspecting agents.


And the second table which presented a straight up showdown between Treshold and lurkers.


The Red Lion Inn situated conveniently close to the a small curch.


Chruch and graveyard


All in all there was a good deal of attention on the game and as far as I have been informed (I was unfortunatly not able to be there myself due to personal matters) quite a lot of games were run on the tables.

Those tables turned out nicely.  I'd like to have a game on both of them.  8)
