The year is the present day, 2005.
When President Bush formed the Department of Homeland Security in 2002, pressure was placed on him to reactivate the troubleshooting group Delta Green. This pressure was applied by agents of that organization, who of course were careful not to let their membership in Delta Green slip. After reviewing the literature and case reports and the mass destruction wrought by agents of the Cthulhu Mythos in WW2 Germany and Vietnam, the president gave his approval to the proposal. Delta Green then, was formally reborn on January 1, 2003.
In the two years since its new inception, Delta Green has gained clout until, by the current day, it is no longer a US-centered organization, but its arms no reach across the world. Delta Green agents are found within most of the major world powers' intelligence and military communities.
I'm gonna try my hand at Delta Green now, another setting I dig. The book was written in the late 90s, and hasn't been updated for several years, so I took it upon myself to do the updating. Given the creation of Homeland Security, I felt it was a natural for DG to be reactivated; I figure post-Sept. 11, they're more in demand than ever. Terrorism and terrorist sympathies would be a very convenient way to cover your tracks after a DG op.
I'm more or less gauging interest and gathering players for right now. Maybe start giving some thought to your character concepts awhile. I'll sit down with my Spycraft book tonight and work out the necessary conversions. Familiarity with DG isn't really necessary.
As an addenda, this game will mention some things in the politics of today (references to Homeland Security, of course, and al-Qaeda are it though). Being DG, you can't really get around that.
As a second addenda, DG doesn't have much of a presence in the United Kingdom.
For those who *do* know DG:
[sblock]The newly revitalized DG has identified PISCES as what it is, but has allied itself, precariously, with the Army of the Third Eye. As DG has become legal, the "old cowboy" attitude has mostly disppeared. There's more corruption within the ranks now, though not a lot.[/sblock]
EDIT: I've gone ahead and closed the game, but I'll still take alts.
