Oh man, this is truly the content of perfection. It is amazingly well done and inspirational for me to buy the books and immidiately run a full campaign. Thank you very much, hope you a good day. Oh! And i'm from Vietnam
Don't know how much you know about the lore, but the "official" Delta Green was disbanded after a disastrous operation in Cambodia in the late 60s.
Would be cool to run a campaign set in Vietnam/Cambodia, but from local perspective of people caught up in the Fall of Delta Green
after years of running other systems i'm so happy that i found dg at the beginning of the year. this is now my main system
I'm quite fond of it myself. I really like Cthulhu + Modern Day. And the mechanics of the game are solid.
Like the new style!, I love all your vids, you are one of the most profesionals rpg reviewers. Greetings from Venezuela :)
hola y muchas gracias
Thanks for another killer review. I absolutely love everything I have in the Delta Green line and this looks like one I should add to my collection.
-btw. Nice Hat! 😁
Thanks! Yeah, this scenario is one of those “I have got to find some players to run this with” types.
Hey, cool format. I like this style, very to the point!
Amazing reviews would love you to make more delta green reviews
It’s so funny that there is a Area 51 wiki link under the video now to prevent “disinformation” 😂😂😂
Love your videos. Hope you review the Cypher System and Numenera soon.

Still one of the best RPG channels on youtube. No bullshit, no skits, no rants - just pure analysis and overview of great RPG books without wasting any time. Great job as always.
Thank you!
My inner Henry Zobrowski perked up when you mentioned MAJESTIC
I want to play Delta green so bad, but I feel like to be the handler I need to watch every episode of x files and law and order.
Haha! That probably wouldn’t help you run the game all that much, to be honest.
thanks i will have to play that game
Seed for any fellow handlers: when I ran I replaced the dimensional shambler in the original scenario with THE THING from Delta Green 6e which was located in a forgotten/secret bunker MAJESTIC used to cryogenically freeze bits of deep one/Yuggoth technology. Every year or so they send someone like this team in to check it under the cover story of ir being an abandoned cold war bunker where they are storing radioactive waste far enough from base to be no harm to the occupants. When the field activates, it shuts off the anomalous field that's was keeping the thing contained in the corpse of a deep one. Now there's a hidden creature, THE THING running around the base taking out/mimicking personnel and eventually even the majestic killsquad members.
I think I'd be a little reluctant to use this module as a gateway to a larger campaign, since it relies on pregenerated characters. I'd have to see if there were a way to fit players' own characters into the scenario for that.
Could argue it being such a small/rundown base, that local town residents/friends are invited on base for the Saturday night poker game
Hello, do play these games?
Yeah I do
@@DaveThaumavore awesome!
Sorry, but I just find your little face down there kind of distracting. Yeah, I know it’s purely subjective. Still, another really useful review. You are criminally under viewed, liked, subscribed etc, because the quality is equal to if not better than the big names
Thanks. Yeah, I don't know why the channel is flat. Kinda weird. I enjoy making the videos, so there's that. If more people complain about the face in the corner I'll consider stopping the practice. Otherwise, I do feel compelled these days to show my face to the audience.
