Season 2 goes to the mailbag: Sean and Harrigan dig into listener calls and write-ins — Delta Green home scenes, Hackmaster and skill vs. the dice, and how bonds turn agents into people you actually care about.

Sean and Harrigan break down how to build a Delta Green operation, straight from the Handler's Guide scenario-design chapter. Scoping the op, hooking the Agents, designing the investigation, planting leads and dead ends, working in Green Boxes and the program-versus-outlaws schism, landing the creepy moments — and the part most Handlers skip, the cover-up. Plus hard-won advice on running BRP without burying players in skill checks.

Sean and Harrigan map the two Delta Greens — the 2002 schism between "The Program," the official government arm, and "The Outlaws," the off-the-books old guard — and how the faction you choose reshapes a whole campaign's tone. Plus the wider web of factions (Majestic offshoots, March Technologies, the Quiet Children, Persistent Vigil) you can pull into your game.

Sean and Harrigan slide into the Handler's chair, breaking down Delta Green's Handler's Guide and the craft of running the game — building dread, drip-feeding information, and keeping the table bleak, paranoid, and afraid.

Delta Green combat is fast and final — initiative on Dexterity, one action a turn, and a lethality rating that can drop an Agent before they ever roll to dodge. Then Harrigan flips to the other half of staying alive: tradecraft — sanitizing the scene, disposing of the body, funding the cover-up, and lying to the locals so the conspiracy stays buried.

A deep dive into Delta Green’s most devastating mechanic: the Sanity system. We'll cover how Agents slowly lose their minds to violence, helplessness, and the Unnatural, and how they project that trauma onto their "Bonds" (family and friends) to stay in the fight.

We'll discuss the blend of Lovecraftian cosmic horror with modern tactical espionage, the history of the game, and why it is the ultimate "burner phone and suppressed pistol" experience.
