INNSMOUTH COLOR MAP
Someone asked for the Innsmouth map I made for OPERATIONAL HISTORY but without the color desaturation and print-look; here it is!This map was created using Lovecraft's hand-drawn map of Innsmouth and complies with his vision of the layout and size of the town. Enjoy! (Or destroy!)
COLD FLESH (A REQUEST)
Someone requested a post on info regarding Dr. Javier Muñoz's scientific method of extending life (as seen in H.P. Lovecraft's COOL AIR) in the world of Delta Green...In Delta Green, Agents often find that any clear delineation between life and death appears to be nothing more than a wholly arbitrary line drawn by man. Various methods, sciences and dark magics have found ways around the normal processes, and in doing so, have transformed humans from fragile, mortal beings into something...
TALES FROM THE MAJESTIC-12
After the crash of an apparent alien vehicle in the deserts of New Mexico in 1947, MAJESTIC-12 grew like a malignant tumor out of the ruins of American intelligence until it subsumed the entire government. By 1979, it was unopposed and the levers and controls it had on the government were total. Even President Reagan, when brought in on the "truth" of the Greys and their agenda was little more than a spectator on the sidelines.MAJESTIC lasted in such a position of power until the coup an...

OPERATIONAL HISTORY PREVIEW: ASHPILE, TOPSOIL, ADVANCE MAN AND GDANSK/NORTHWAY
THE LIMESTONE AIR FORCE BASE INCIDENT (1949)In 1948, artifacts recovered by U.S. Air Force personnel from a suspected UFO landing site in Greenland during operation ASHPILE were moved to Limestone Air Force Base (later Loring AFB), Maine. There they remained undisturbed in storage for ten months, waiting to be collected and cataloged by the recently reformed and wildly backlogged Delta Green.Before Delta Green could recover the items, an incident occurred. On the night of 5 NOV 1949, something w...
AFTER/MATH v2
Ever wonder what happens after Delta Green loses? Here's a new, play tested version of my End Times game, AFTER/MATH. Give it a spin, and let me know what you think.Listen...The parties started sometime in the last five years, though it's hard to remember when I first heard about them. Small at first. Mini-Burning Mans, sprouting up at the edges of towns and cities. People drunk and drinking and later fucking, and then shooting. And then the police.Later, the army.It was a puff-piece. So...
Deep Apologies
The channel has been quiet, and that's my fault. The only excuse I can really offer is two-fold, but I generally don't like to complain. My wife has been dealing with some serious health issues, suddenly (which are still ongoing, but appear to be heading in the directions needed— we'll know more in a month), and life, never overlooking a chance to pile on gave us another issue: our beloved dog Huckleberry very suddenly began falling apart about a month ago, and we ended up losing h...
COOTER MCGEE FROM A NIGHT ON OWLSHEAD MOUNTAIN
Over the past sixty years McGee’s body has advanced far beyond the scope of human evolution. His skin can deflect low-caliber bullets and his metabolism is nearly so efficient as to be self-contained. He occasionally needs water but little else, and in the last three years he has even stopped breathing. After his lobotomy in 1956, the Ubbo-Sathla spawn in his body replaced the destroyed material in his brain with a new sensing organ. This organ can detect movement at great distances, and was c...
ART FOR HOLY WAR
When I ran the original "FATE" campaign, it was for my high school RPG group. Belial (the black suited man) and Johannes Kneiper (the grinning man) became legendary thorns in their sides.

NEW FROM OPERATIONAL HISTORY (THE START OF STATIC)
DELTA GREEN: OPERATIONAL HISTORY has permitted me to return to the well of madness that is IMPOSSIBLE LANDSCAPES. It will include detail write-ups of all the secret maneuvering of Delta Green in the 1950s in smashing out the infection of the King In Yellow.
NEW FROM OPERATIONAL HISTORY (THE K'N-Y'ANI)
DISINFORMATION: THE SMITHSONIAN OSSUARYAs reports of giant human bones dug up in various excavations began to ripple through local newspapers in mid-19th century America, an inadvertent cover-up was set in motion behind the stately facade of America’s premier museum; the Smithsonian. Regarded as a bastion of scientific inquiry, the Smithsonian became headquarters to an ongoing (almost accidental) operation to keep anomalous remains from the public.It began in the late 1840s (about the same tim...

New art for DELTA GREEN: OPERATIONAL HISTORY.
THE WAY IT WENT DOWN: PROCESSING
People think they know their limits, but they don’t. Not really. You don’t know how far you’ll go. You just can’t. No one can know, man.BING, BING, BING.I turn the car off, and then a few second later, the engine rattles to a stop and the car shakes with a final lurch. I float in the black for a few minutes there, my breath coming in plumes that catch what little light there is.Then, outside in the dark.It’s okay, I’m not afraid anymore. I’m past that now. When the worst has happen...
MORE OPERATIONAL HISTORY!
I am working through DELTA GREEN: OPERATIONAL HISTORY,which is turning out to be a huge project. It's so large and complex, it's been split into two books: DELTA GREEN OPERATIONAL HISTORY PART I:1928-1960 and PART II: 1961-2025Here's the inter-war years leading up to WWII, along with LIFEGUARD, the first real Delta Green operation. (Keep in mind, this is unedited, raw text —we're not really looking for grammar or spelling mistake notes on it...YET!) DOWNLOAD DELTA GREEN: OPERAT...
DYER AND DANFORTH
New art for OPERATIONAL HISTORY.EXPLORATION (26 JAN 1931): Dyer and Danforth enter a giant, dark tunnel that descends into the alien city. Hundreds of strange passages wind off from the entrance, and seem to exhibit an optical illusion effect. Tunnels split, dive, and curve at impossible angles. The two men come upon carvings depicting the Elder Thing culture, their creation of the Shoggoths, and various ancient wars wrought by their civilization. Photographs are taken. Evidence of something liv...
INNSMOUTH MAPS
As promised, the after-action maps for the Innsmouth raid. (Along with a labeled and unlabeled version of the map, true to Lovecraft's sketches and notes).
INNSMOUTH MAP, IN PROGRESS
I'm working on the P4 late 1930's after action report map of Innsmouth (which, when finished, will show the Marine raid on Innsmouth in detail — with troop movements and everything). Here's the first half of the map in progress. Please note:• This is based on Lovecraft's original hand-drawn map of Innsmouth• But it supposes that previous fan maps have been wildly overpopulated with buildings — though Innsmouth was once larger, by 1928, the population was only from 400 to ...
INNSMOUTH SPY SHOTS
Working on OPERATIONAL HISTORY, busy illustrating it. I wanted to capture the horrors of Innsmouth as seen by the Office of Naval Intelligence members that infiltrated and secretly photographed the town...INFILTRATION AND FILMING INNSMOUTH (27 SEP – 3 OCT 1927): ONI officers enter Innsmouth and use hidden cameras in briefcases to photograph and film its residents. Though no agent stays more than a few hours, and noneafter dark, they capture horrific deformities and some residents’ inhuman na...
INNSMOUTH, 2:51 AM, 28 FEB 1928
I wanted to paint the Innsmouth explosion for OPERATIONAL HISTORY (as seen in ONCE MORE FROM THE TOP, and OPERATIONAL HISTORY) that gave birth to what would become DELTA GREEN. "THE EXPLOSION(2:51 AM): An explosion heard almost 20 miles away rocks the town, and cracks windows as far away as Essex. Marines from the Second Company, desperate, having fallen back to the Esoteric Order of Dagon, detonate a heavy truck full of TNT and phosphorous grenades next to the church, leveling it, and killi...
NEW ART: ARTHUR HUNT
The mysterious millionaire Arthur Hunt died in 1952, but the horrors and wonders he uncovered — as well as his greatest secret — remain active even today...Here's a first look at the (deceased) star of DELTA GREEN: FUTURE/PERFECT.This is just to say I'm working on an expanded version of DELTA GREEN: FUTURE/PERFECT with a completely new chapter and new tie-ins to the Great Race of Yith, which will go as a full mini-campaign in the back of DELTA GREEN: THOSE WHO COME AFTER, the Great R...
THE WAY IT WENT DOWN: COLD BLOODED
“Hey Carl, how’s it going?”“Pretty solid, Danny. No complaints,” I say, and we shoot the breeze. I hung my hat in this trailer park when Bush (not Junior) was failing to secure his second term, and I guess it’s worked out. Danny has been here since that Arkansas fucker left after his second term, so it’s safe to say we’re just about the oldest residents here.Still, that doesn’t make us the same. For one, he looks much older than me. Second, he don't know war. Not real war.D...

OUT OF THE DEAD LAND...A NEW CAMPAIGN FOR DELTA GREEN
I'm working on many things, but in the back of my mind (and now, on the page) are the first inklings of a new Delta Green campaign: OUT OF THE DEAD LAND. I purposely have set out to make this campaign less controversial than GOD'S TEETH, and less bizarre than IMPOSSIBLE LANDSCAPES.OUT OF THE DEAD LANDconcerns an entire town, Bethel, Delaware, infected by otherworldly horror, and Delta Green's reaction to it as the rumours there find a home online at first, and then, later the NBC Nig...

THE WAY IT WENT DOWN: ARREARS
When I get the call, I have no fucking idea who it is. The number is from New Haven, and I answer it on a whim. I don’t usually answer my phone anymore. Not in years. I haven't been back since? 2003? Don't plan to go back.No one I want to talk to is ever on the phone.“Yeah,” I say, and the guy is looking at me. I put the bill down in the security opening and point at the American Spirit pack, tapping on the plexiglass when his hand sweeps over it.“Is um…Deanie there?” The voi...
'DEAD LETTER' 1997 PLAYTEST
It took months to track down and decode these transcripts. It was one of the earliest playtests of Adam Scott Glancy’s "Dead Letter,” which would first appear in Delta Green: Countdownin 1999. An updated version is availablefor Delta Green: The Role-Playing Game.Glancy ran "Dead Letter” in AOL chatrooms in late 1997 for Shane Ivey, Keith Potter, and Pat Grindle. Delta Greenhad just been published. What would become the RPG classic Countdownwas still coming together. Glancy continue...
