RPG Reanimators

Episode Notes In this episode, we dissect and reanimate the Delta Green scenario BLACKSAT, written by Greg Stolze and Shane Ivey, which is part of the Control Group collection. This scenario stands out among other DG operations as a unique one-shot where the PCs are astronauts not familiar with "The Conspiracy™️", however, you can expect some... turbulence at launch without a bit of TLC. Since one of the Reanimators has more than a little experience actually training astronauts, we brainstorm new ideas and advice to help make your next run of the scenario a mission success. Are there any more puns that I can make? PS - this episode has my favorite post-credits blooper, so be sure to stick around past the ending music for that 🍑🪄 Links: You can find the scenario at: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/273935/delta-green-control-group or https://shop.arcdream.com/products/delta-green-control-group Holly's AP of the scenario on our YouTube channel The referenced Roleplaying Public Radio (RPPR) AP of the scenario on their YouTube channel A collage map of the shuttle using official NASA images and some stat blocks for the antagonist on our shared file drive Intro & outro music: "In the Mouth of Madness" by Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio.
