The Gathering Storm (GM John)
It is the late Spring of 1809 aboard the Frigate HMS Tersichore. As one of the few British warships in the indian Ocean, you defend his majesty's ships from the Ogre Bonaparte's raiding fleets - all based on the Gibaraltar of the East, Isle de France. But all is not well aboard the Tersichore, the popular Captain Thomas is ill and hasn't been seen in weeks, disease is rife, the crew seethe with discontent, the French have sortied and storm season approaches. Can you and your shipmates survive the perils ahead?"

Zeppelins over Cairo (GM John) [top]
Fully Booked - No Places available:
Egypt 1936 - a lone survivor of the Harrington-Falken international archaeological expedition staggers out of the desert, telling a tale of treachery, madness and murder. As the unconscious American lies in his sick-bed, international tensions rise, with each country blaming the other for the disappearance of their 'best and brightest'. Angry telegrams fly between London and Paris, the Italian fleet sorties, steaming at full speed for Alexandria, and Zeppelins are dispatched from their base at Wilhelmshaven. The players are cast into this diplomatic maelstrom, on a mission of mercy. Can they discover the fate of Penny Harrington? Will they fall prey to the secret that tore apart the previous expedition?

What really lies under the desert sands? Is it worth killing for? Or dying for ...?

Saturday PM (1 Game): 
The Badari Serekh (GM Max) [top]
1 Place available:
London, 1924, the British Museum has called you in to help them with a mystery: one of their books is missing. So why you? Well, they presume that as you are from the expedition that found the book and donated it in the first place, that you may be best placed to find it. You hoped you’d never see or hear of that damned book ever again. But deep down you know there is only you, you and those that faced the evil and fear with you when you first found it. You are the only ones really equipped to deal with the terror the book brings. It will doubtless be a test that will finally break some of you, but you know the world cannot suffer the consequences of the book falling in to the wrong hands.

1930 Cthulhu scenario, 4 - 6 Enlightened Investigators required: pre-gen characters supplied.
(All levels of Cthulhu experience welcome, including none!)

PLEASE NOTE: This game is for Mature minded gamers only.

Sunday AM (1 Game): 
Ice Station Tsathoggua (GM John) [top]
Fully Booked - No Places available:
Antarctic Research Station Admundsen has gone off the air, and yesterday's overflight showed signs of a fire. You've been chosen as part of an emergency rescue team to locate, aid and evacuate any survivors. There's a storm front coming in, so you'll have to be quick, but for old Antarctic hands like yourselves, that shouldn't be a problem. 

After all, what could go wrong, thousands of miles from civilisation, in sub-zero temperatures with five other people you've hardly met in an aircraft barely able to make it there and back? Piece of cake.... 

Ice Station Tsathoggua is a Moden Cthulhu scenario for 6 players.  Pre generated characters supplied.

Wings of War is a simple game for 2 or more players. The rules can be learned in minutes, so before you know it you will be thrust into a whirling dogfight where only the skilful and lucky will survive.

Throughout ShadowCon we will be running a variety of Wings of Wars scenarios.

  Players can join in at any time throughout the game as replacements are rushed to the front to fill the gaps left by those who have fallen. Likewise pilots may retreat back to the hanger for well earned rest and recuperation, only to rejoin the fray later.
• Catch the Pigeon: 
  The messenger pigeon carries vital information to further the ends of the war. Both sides want that information, but only one is going to end the day with the prize. Take to the skies in your 'dastardly' flying machines in a test of skill, courage and no small amount of luck.
