About a month ago, I played my first session of Delta Green. The experience was merely okay. My pre-gen ended up "going Rambo" at the end, in the words of another character. The group played another session a week later, where I rolled my own. The experience was fantastic, probably the best of playering all year (~40 sessions), so good that within two weeks (with the help of a player absence on the regular day) I was running the same module and my first Delta Green for my main group. This a) fits with my theory that "modules matter" more than systems, most of the time, and b) compounds the difficulty of consuming all the "future funs" that might be available to me. The great module was actually the very short "Last Things Last" scenario in the Delta Green quickstart, modified a bit by my GM and myself in play.
After running a single game, I'm already collecting materials and stewing over ideas about a Delta Green campaign.
Delta Green would be, at best, the tertiary campaign with the group I GMed, and maybe quaternary is a more accurate label. The bigger problem is that, by rough count, I already have twelve major campaigns and seven minor campaigns planned, not to mention several one-shots, that I would like to do. Two of these major campaigns even would require hacking together systems, to get something I'd want to run. How am I going to finish all these projects before I die? (This is not including finishing my heartbreaker.)
Probably shouldn't be a player in any new systems any more.
Modules played in this year, and will I run attempt to them later:
"Last Things Last" --> Yes
"Convergence" --> Maybe
Whatever the Dragonbane box starter campaign is called (Misty Vale?) --> No
Shadow of the Dragon Queen --> No
"The Isle" --> Yes
Mike's Dungeon --> No
Stonehell --> No
A knockoff of B2, I'm not sure which --> No
"Shadow of the Manticore" --> No
"Kidnap the Archpriest" --> Probably
