Hey Guys,
So seeing as reddit is turning into a cluster I think I am going to spend less time over there; generally my Canada reddit seems to now be running the inquisition and I figure its only a matter of time under breedingmaterial gets shuttered (plays sad song).
Now onto my other thing; someone suggested Delta Green as a RPG system to me (big thank you by the way) and I am curious how many are familiar with it? To explain it sort of super-imposes chthulu lore over our actual present day (Trumps election is in the GM book). As I am curious what peoples play with it was like - I plan on running my first game of it soon as a sort of detached monster of the week sort of series of sessions with random players.
Never heard of it, but it sounds interesting.
Same here, and I'm a old hand at CoC.
Aye the gameplay system is akin to WHFRP (1d100 checks) with a empathizes on sanity and the idea that the players are very mortal.
As Txiribiton said - there is a idea that the players tend to be one of two groups - the Renegades (think "Supernatural" hunters with unsanctioned government support) or The Program (think "MiB" with a actual structured chain of command) depending on how you want to use it you might have the group playing a group of soldiers; or just people with useful backgrounds being brought in for various reasons.
I plan to set up a classic Wendigo hunt in Alert (North in Canada) with a classic blizzard/cut off scenario.
The scenario sounds interesting.
If you are also interested on published material the "At your door" campaign has flaws and is a bit disconnected but it has great ideas and we had a lot of fun when it was released. It's for 1990 CoC but I think it can work well with Delta Green, there was a conspiracy that could be expanded, a company summoning and milking Shub-Niggurath, experiments with the properties of the alien goo, etc.
