Trying to avoid having to wait at ATH for an extended time if it can be avoided, but if A3 isn't kind to late arrivals, I'll just book the later flights anyway.

Thanks.
On a single ticket (or multiple conjunctive tickets) with a missed A3-A3 connection, A3 is pretty much required to put you on the next flight out.

(General rule: When on a single ticket/consequent conjunctive tickets, the late delivering carrier is responsible for rebooking)
