Delta Green is a grim game. God's Teeth doubled down on that, and I loved every minute I played. Challenging and weird, with moment of frisson that I will never forget.
Sadly, my old group broke up before we finished the campaign.
Thanks to Midjourney, I threw together some images of our game, hopefully spoiler-free.
My most recent RPG purchase would be "The Dread of Dynwel", a 5e adventure written by one of my friends. I don't play 5e anymore, but I would come out of retirement if someone were to run this.
Here are some Midjourney images I made for our Delta Green: OBSERVER EFFECT game. Anyone could do the same in in half an hour, but I honestly don't know what else to do with this blog.

Vampire 5e.
My game group played the fuck out of VtM 25 years ago, so when James told me that he wanted to give 5e a try, he had my attention. And Renegade (or Onyx Path or whoever) had my money.
The Good: Hunger mechanic. No longer felt like we were playing Dark Supers like we did back in our 1e/2e days.
The Bad: Lots of little subsystems to keep track of. The game could use a bit of streamlining/house ruling.
But we had a lot of fun, and it's on the rotation for future games.
Sadly, I cannot recall the name of the kid who ran my first game of D&D. I know it was fall of 1981 because a) I was in sixth grade, and b) the DM was very proud of his brand new Fiend Folio.
I was given a character (a human fighter), we encountered a carbuncle in a forest. Greedy little shits that we were, we tried to pry the gem from its forehead and were forced to kill the poor thing when it objected. I vividly remember standing up and pantomiming precisely how I was using my spear to dispatch the little armadillo.
I don;t remember anything else from that session, but I babbled excitedly the entire ride home and have remained a hopeless addict for the past 42 years.
Day 01: First RPG Played (This Year)
I played (ran) a game of Call of Cthulhu for my wife.
Unfortunately, Ruby was last seen convalescing under private care in Arkham, Massachusetts.
