[QUOTE="Charles Dunwoody, post: 8401701, member: 17927"] That makes sense. You bring up good points. I do know there is quite a bit of GM support in there because of the reasons you mention but advice alone doesn't run a campaign. If I ran it I wouldn't tell the players I was using the campaign. So they won't know if what happens is what is in the book or not. I think I just wouldn't worry about the big picture so much. Focus on just the very next session with one investigation and scenes of life at home unraveling. Just like any other Delta Green campaign. I would take notes of what happened while they are fresh in my mind. It might even happen the other events the PCs are experiencing lead naturally back to the King in Yellow. Or maybe not. I guess it would be great to have the book handy and be ready. But I would also be okay with a campaign that turns out to be an investigation of the week instead. For me I feel like I'd be taking the pressure off myself that way. But keeping my options wide open in case things do come together. In my mind, any campaign is really about the players and what they have their characters do and how they have their characters act. I don't think of myself as GMing Impossible Landscapes for example but instead I think of myself as the Handler for the Agents run by Debbie, Phil, and Marty. For me, that helps me keep my priorities straight. Not sure those thoughts would help anyone else though! Just thinking out loud what would work best for me personally. YMMV. [/QUOTE]
