Delta Green – Storage Wars: Exposure at Gen Con 2017
Delta Green’s job is protecting this nation from threats terrestrial or otherwise. Now it is time for their most difficult job yet: Cleanup Duty. In the quiet corners of the USA Green Boxes are leaking. These Pandora’s Boxes slowly poison surrounding communities with their other worldly knowledge. It is up to the players to investigate, contain, and secure the secrets of both the Green Box and the Communities they infect. May God be with you. This session was run at GenCon 2017 and is a playtest of a longer campaign Travis is currently developing.
If interested, reply in the comments below, he will be happy to throw more bodies at the problem. Just like Delta Green.
This game was recorded in a noisy con space and the audio suffered as a result.

Herding Cats: Ludonarrative Dissonance at Gen Con 2017
This is a crosspost from our sister show Ugly Talk! Go subscribe if you haven’t already.
This is a panel from Gen Con 2017. Travis talks about Ludonarrative Dissonance (Fludonarrative discobiscuits if you’re hungry).
If you’ve been in the video game blog-o-sphere at some point, you have heard of LND (I’m not typing out the entire word you can’t make me). But is it necessarily the pejorative term as its become in video game circles. Listen to this panel from Gen Con that gives the answer: NO. Most of all if anything LND is a feature most Tabletop GMs and Players are intimately familiar with, but haven’t realized there was a term for. As such, listen in, learn a thing (maybe), and speak up if you have questions. Welcome to Herding Cats: Ludonarrative Dissonance and Players. (Dammit you tricked me into writing the full things again…)
