We're developing 'The Black Company' as an RPG
The Lady? Where had I encountered that word used that way, emphasized as though it was the title of a goddess? A dark legend out of olden times.… —The Black CompanyGlen Cook's groundbreaking dark fantasy series The Black Company, about a hardbitten mercenary company in a fantasy world, clawed its way into my heart long, long ago. It never left. I ran Black Company-inspired games throughout high school and college. When Dennis and I launched Arc Dream in 2002, some of our earliest emails back and forth were about possibly licensing The B...

"Convergence" comes to VTT. Be thankful while you can.
American gamers today celebrate Thanksgiving. Here's one reason to be thankful: The original Delta Green scenario "Convergence" is now at Roll20 and Foundry. Rid yourselves of family and friends, all those near enough to touch you and infect your drinking water, and get online with your cell to save the world. Or maybe just Groversville, TN. Or maybe just each other. Or maybe not.FOUNDRY: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/459826/Delta-Green-Convergence-for-Foundry-VTT?affiliate_id=48458ROLL20: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product...

'Cornucopia': A True-Crime Docuseries In My 'God's Teeth' Game
My friends are closing in on the end of my running Caleb Stokes' campaign God's Teeth. The three original Agents first marked by the Nameless God in 2001 have all died or, in one case, been erased from having ever existed in the first place. But a new generation of Teeth were marked along the way.The great depth of background in God's Teeth demands recaps and reminders, especially in this case. One of the players is new, having come aboard only after the bulk of the campaign. So I tied it all together in a way that the campaign itse...

Playtesters Final Call: Meridian
Joplin, Missouri. The crossroads of America. A pair of investigators drive into town, sent from Washington, D.C. on a case that looks like a waste of time and resources: investigating the finances of a rural shelter for homeless youth. It looks like poison to careers that are already on life support. Unless there’s more to it. Unless the ghostly lights of tall tales really do rise over the black woods. Unless the leaves whisper with memories beyond life and death.Delta Green has to find new Agents somewhere."Meridian" is a Delta Green...

Only after a few more years do they learn that the worst threat of all has lingered and grown and spread.What happens in those intervening few years? That’s up to the Handler. Perhaps God’s Hunt.Delta Green: God’s Hunt collects four scenarios that can be faced by any Agents but that are specially ai...
Recognition of Unnatural Contact: God's Teeth
After uncountable years of gnawing and digestion, the Delta Green campaign God's Teeth crawls through layout, desperate for some unholy birthing into our quiescent world.Written by Caleb Stokes (Lover in the Ice, Dead Channels, Red Markets), God's Teeth first appeared as an early Role Playing Public Radio campaign when Delta Green: The Role-Playing Game was still in playtesting. That appalling experience grew into something deeper.God's Teeth opens with an early Delta Green cell's 2001 raid on [REDACTED], an operation to shatter...
