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:
- The vast majority of our many shotgun scenarios.
- Operation Contagion by Matt Cowger.
- The Death of Simon Michaels (PDF attached to this article) by Rik Kershaw-Moore. Takes place in England, but written pre-Countdown.
Incomplete
- War with Terror: Outline of a campaign set in occupied Iraq/Afganistan.
- Age of Horus: Outline influenced by Jack Parsons and Aleister Crowley.
- Project CAMPAIGN: A DGML project to write a Delta Green campaign in 2012.
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.
Non-DG
- Call of Cthulhu scenarios: About complete scenarios written for other games, with notes by DG GMs on how to adapt them for use as Delta Green scenarios.
