"There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened." (Douglas Adams)

Life as a Space Marine is tough. You get to trudge through mud, float over featureless rocks, be blinded in searing deserts and freeze on icy asteroids. But it's still better than what you left behind. They've given you a gun, a suit of armour and a plethora of targets. Do things right and they might give you a medal and a promotion too. Eventually you might forget why it is you wanted to come out here. Eventually.

A classic game of 3:16, players will create their marine (or possibly marines, it's not a training camp out there you know) and see the battle through across a mixture of alien worlds.

Reed, Mik

Mik Reed has been playing tabletop RPG's since 1981 and has been GMing them for just as long in the vain hope that others will get the hint and run some for him to play in return! Despite being in the hobby for decades he is a relative newcomer to conventions in general and while this is only his second year GMing at cons he feels that the 6 years spent researching how it's done hold him in reasonable stead. That and occasionally players come back for a second game which suggests he is doing something right.

In common with most gamers Mik owns more gaming books than he could ever hope to use and is attempting to make the habit look more like forward planning than plain addiction by running a variety of games at the Con.

It is rumoured that Mik can be bribed with fruit.
