Scenarios

Several scenarios have been written specifically with Delta Green in mind. Due to DG's respect for Lovecraft and other Mythos originals, it is usually easy to adapt non-DG modern Mythos materials for use with DG agents, especially since the history of DG stretches back to Innsmouth.

Fan-made for Delta Green

There are a lot of false starts on the Internet, but the following fan-made scenarios are complete:

Incomplete

Many other campaigns have been suggested on the mailing list over the years, though the material on them is not yet collected in this wiki:

  • New Cult of Cthulhu. The ancient cult reforms as an elite dedicated to sociopathic materialism. This idea prefigures the Cult of Transcendence, and late-2000s financial crisis. Message 18319.
  • Black Brotherhood. The Iraq War was a smash and grab on Irem between rival Mythos cults. Message 18496.
  • The Shan cross the Atlantic and infiltrate MJ-12 (and Delta Green) after the Accord breaks down. Message 18297 (copied into Delta Green after 9/11).
  • War on Dregs. Delta Green attempts to ignite conflict between the Fate and other Mythos/crime groups, in particular the Disciples of the Worm. As things heat up, DG begins to use ghouls as infiltrators. Message 26272 and thread.
  • Office #44 takes the role of the Karotechia and is wiped out by a DG operation in North Korea. Message 32308.
  • Crossover with the X-COM computer game franchise, particularly UFO: Enemy Unknown (1994). The suggested backbone was an attempt at subjugation and religious conversion of the Earth by vengeful insects from Shaggai and their light-tolerant slave races, opposed by PCs as BLUE FLY soldiers in an uneasy alliance of some of the canonical organizations. Message 32362.
