Episode 507: Awesomely Underfunded

July 29th, 2022 | Robin

In the Gaming Hut, Beloved Patreon backer Eric Jeppesen, or a clever facsimile thereof, kicks off an all-request episode, as he wonders how to run GUMSHOE One-2-One with a doppelganger protagonist.

Stealthy backer Erik R gains access to the Tradecraft Hut to ask how to set Night’s Black Agents in Asia.

Dimensionally resonant backer Nikolaj ducks into the Narrative Hut to find out what the sudden multiplicity of multiverses in movies and TV tells us about the present zeitgeist.

And finally formidable backer John Scheib revs up Ken’s Time Machine to learn about the timeline where Eugene of Savoy fights for France and not against it.

Delta Green Iconoclasts, a campaign of horrors modern and ancient, brings a team of Agents to a scene of horrors all too real: Mosul in 2016, held by the self-styled Islamic State in a reign of depraved brutality. From a small base at the Kirkuk airfield, the Agents must research the horrors to come and prepare for a harrowing infiltration. Terrors and new supplementary material await, now in PDF, hardback now in preorder.
