2024 Alphabet Jam Reviews

The 2024 Alphabet Jam has recently concluded. Each participant was assigned a letter and was tasked to write a Delta Green scenario inspired by a word starting with their assigned letter. The more unusual the chosen word, the better. This year it was also a jam, not a contest, so there was no winner. Or rather, everyone who submitted something is a winner.

I didn't have time to participate this year, but I read all entries and wrote short reviews. All submissions can be found here.

Shotgun Scenario Review: Apoptosis

In this post I'll review Apoptosis, the winning scenario of the 2023 Shotgun Scenario Contest by Dragoleaf. I already wrote a little bit about Apoptosis in this post, but I finally got to run it, so I thought I'd give it a more in-depth review.

Plateau of Leng Pointcrawl - Masterpost

The campaign I am currently working on will take the Agents to the Plateau of Leng and from there further into the Dreamlands. To make the travel over the infamous plateau interesting I am turning it into a pointcrawl. This masterpost contains links to all the points of interest that the Agents can explore while they make their way across the icy wastes of Leng.

Using the Weird Science Scenario Generator

My last post was about the Weird Science Scenario Generator, which is essentially just a bunch of random tables to generate biology-themed Weird Science scenarios for Delta Green. In this post I use the scenario generator to come up with an outline for a scenario, just to see if we get something sensible and interesting.

Weird Science Scenario Generator - Biology Edition

The following collection of random tables is my submission to the 2024 N@tO Tech Start-Up Jam. These tables can be used to create scenarios with a Weird Science theme, specifically ones that deal with biology, biotech and medicine. You won't get a fully playable scenario, but hopefully it's enough to get started or to serve as inspiration.

Types of Threats in Delta Green Scenarios

I looked at every official Delta Green scenario and tried to identify the main threat that the scenario is centered on and what "type" of threat it is. Why? I don't know. It could be useful for a random scenario generator, like Agent Obtuse's. Or maybe this sort of classification could be integrated in my scenario database and help with finding specific types of scenarios.

The Lynchburg Cluster - A Delta Green Mini Campaign

Over the past few months the 2024 Delta Green Mini Campaign Jam has taken place, where participants could submit a campaign of no longer than 30000 words. This jam was a good opportunity to finally work on my modern-day Karotechia campaign.

My Submission to the 2024 N@TO Scenario Contest

Over the last few months the 7th annual r/nightattheopera scenario contest took place. SirLordBaron's All Good Things won the people's choice vote, whereas my submission won the judges' vote!

My scenario is called The Sound of Doom, after a line in Gojira's The Chant. You can find the scenario here. Also, check out the other submissions in the contest document, they were all great.

Variants of the Withering Ritual

In Delta Green, Withering is the go-to spell to give enemy sorcerers some damage-dealing capabilities. However, all wizards having the same spell is boring. So here are some ideas for different flavors of Withering.

Five Friendlies with a Science Background for your Delta Green Game

Sometimes your Agents are on an operation and realize that they don't have the necessary skills to solve a problem at hand. In such cases a generous Handler can provide a convenient Friendly with the required skill set. In this post I have written up five Friendlies with Science background. But beware, each of them has a secret that could turn them from an useful asset into a dangerous liability.

2023 Shotgun Scenario Contest Reviews

In this post I review all submissions to the 2023 Shotgun Scenario Contest, except for my own. I have written a separate blog post about my scenarios, which you can find here.

My Submissions to the 2023 Shotgun Scenario Contest

It's a new year, which means that the 2023 Shotgun Scenario Contest has concluded. This year's winning scenario was Apoptosis by Dragoleaf, with runner-up Ideasthesia by Erik Ahlin. The people's choice award goes to Operation CHOLLIMA BLACK by Agent HOPKINS. Congrats to the winners! There were 71 submissions this year, so the 2020 record of 75 scenarios was almost broken. You can check out all the entries here.

In this post I'm covering my own two entries to this deluge of scenarios, Terminal Lucidity and Subliminal. I also wrote reviews for all the other scenarios, which you can find here.
