'''Delta Green''' is a setting for the [[Call of Cthulhu role-playing game|Call of Cthulhu role-playing game]]. Delta Green was created by [[Adam Scott Glancy]], [[Dennis Detwiller]], and [[John Tynes]] of Seattle gaming house [[Pagan Publishing]]. Set in the modern day, characters are members of a renegade secret United States government organization – itself named Delta Green – dedicated to combating the horrors of the [[Cthulhu Mythos]]. The concept was introduced in the seventh issue of "[[The Unspeakable Oath]]", a ''Call of Cthulhu'' fanzine created by Pagan Publishing, in early 1993. Four years later, the Delta Green supplement appeared and spawned a number of its own supplements and novels.

The premise is similar to the [[X-Files]], drawing on the federal [[alphabet soup]] folklore, [[UFO conspiracy theory]], the Nazi [[Ahnenerbe]] organization, and other modern legends in addition to the [[Cthulhu Mythos]].

From a game perspective, the purpose of Delta Green is to provide character groups with motivation, resources, a reason for working together, and a source of replacements for characters who go mad or die.

In [[1998]], ''Delta Green'' won the [[Origins Award]] for ''Best Roleplaying Supplement of 1997''. The setting also won two awards in 2000, ''Best Game-Related Novel of 1999'' for ''Delta Green: The Rules of Engagement'' and ''Best Roleplaying Supplement of 1999'' for ''Delta Green: Countdown''.

I've been gaming since Phil Barker (MAR Barker) published Empire of the Petal Throne, and the other Phil Barker published WRG 5th edition.

Delta Green and 1920s are my favourite CoC settings.

I also paint miniatures, mostly 25mm/28mm and some 15mm.

In real life I work in telecoms/IT ... I keep promising to write up an author's/gamer's guide to communications. Who had telegrams, phones, etc and how much they cost, and of course how to listen into them, for each of the decades from the 1890s to the present day. In the meantime, I have quite a good historical reference library on telecoms, so if you need to know something, just ask.
