First time putting this up in this forum, although I am familiar with Delta Green. Played a game online, but went dead.

Anywho, I'm in the process of setting up the DG character page.

I'm aware of it but never played. It's the book that explains that if Great Cthulhu gets hit with a nuke he returns in 1d4 days but radioactive?

I'm honestly not sure on that.

No, that's the original Call of Cthulhu.

Delta Green is more the X-Files and sort of a interesting deconstruction of conspiracy theories. Basically, it takes the kind of Deus Ex and X-Files "the world is full of horrible conspiracies" and it simiultaneously says that is both true as well as making fun of them.

  • The Nazis and shapeshifting lizard people are real but they're a bunch of morons playing with fire and can be dealt with.
  • Majestic-12 is real and the government has a massive treaty with UFO aliens—except the aliens are just fucking with them as the US has no idea what they really are (MI Go).
  • The government conspiracy isn't all powerful. Delta Green is a fraudulent illegal organization that steals its money and impersonates federal officers with magic.

I understand the new version changed up a lot, though.

Trivia on the side.

I joined a discord group and submitted a fan group for DG years ago.

The game offers many superb mechanics and fascinating tidbits of lore, and you really should give it a try if you enjoy deep but fnfeasy to understand mechanics.
