Born of the U.S. government's 1928 raid on the degenerate coastal town of Innsmouth, Massachusetts, the covert agency known as Delta Green opposes the forces of darkness with honor but without glory. Delta Green agents fight to save humanity from unnatural horrors-often at a shattering personal cost.
Delta Green is a tabletop roleplaying game created by Adam Scott Glancy, Dennis Detwiller, and John Scott Tynes and published by Arc Dream Publishing. In DELTA GREEN: THE ROLE-PLAYING GAME, you are one of those agents. You fight to keep terrors from beyond space and time from infecting the world and claiming human lives and sanity.
