Judges and JuryDelta Green¿s Task Force T.I. screwed up. They were in Myanmar, deep in the undeveloped hinterlands. The operation went south, people died, and something monstrous escaped¿perhaps with the aid of an agent from the task force.Now they¿re the operation for a new team of agents. The players¿ Agents must hear testimony from the survivors of Task Force T.I., decide exactly what happened and who¿s responsible, and recommend a course of action to Delta Green¿s leaders. The testimony plays out scene by bloody scene. In each flashback, the players temporarily take the roles of the members of Task Force T.I. The players get tips on how to play them based on their individual personalities and prejudices¿and, more importantly, the ways that their teammates remember them behaving. Memories of overwhelming terror are rarely accurate. But memories are all Delta Green has to go on if a further horror is to be prevented.¿The Star Chamber¿ is a complete scenario for Delta Green, the role-playing game of Lovecraftian horror and conspiracy. It features six ¿secondary¿ Agents, ready to play in the flashback scenes. It is playable with the full rules in Delta Green: Agent¿s Handbook, or the quickstart rules in Delta Green: Need to Know, available from Arc Dream Publishing. Learn more at delta-green.com.

Liminal is a self-contained tabletop roleplaying game about those on the boundary between the modern day United Kingdom and the Hidden World- the world of secret societies of magicians, a police division investigating Fortean crimes, fae courts, werewolf gangs, and haunted places where the walls between worlds are thin. The players portray Liminals - those who stand between the mortal and magical realms, with ties to each. Examples of Liminals include: A magician who acts as a warden to protect unaware mortals from supernatural menaces Someone of mysterious birth who is perhaps half Fae. In any case they are caught up in Faerie politics whether they like it or not A burglar who steals supernatural relics. A werewolf who still has many ties to ordinary people. A dhampir, striving to do good despite their vampiric infection. A mortal detective who knows some of the real strangeness out there. The magical world has a basis in British and Irish folklore and legends, along with ghost stories and modern day popular takes on the supernatural in fiction. Inspirations from fiction include the real world fantasy novels of Ben Aaranovitch, Jim Butcher, Emma Bull, Susanna Clarke, Harry Connolly, Charles de Lint, Neil Gaiman, Benedict Jacka, and Helene Wecker. Made in the UK.

Innsmouth was once a prosperous trading town located on the north coast of Massachusetts. Early in the 19th century her great sailing ships traveled the world in search of trade and treasure. A series of mishaps brought the town to the brink of financial ruin, but it was saved when Captain Obed Marsh discovered a secret source of gold among the islands of the South Pacific. Some whisper that old Obed Marsh made a pact with the devil. The truth is much more sinister. Escape from Innsmouth details Lovecraft's New England town of Innsmouth. A comprehensive atlas of the town is supplemented with complete statistics for numerous townspeople. Three adventures complete the book. One of the adventures, "The Crawford Inheritance," is brand new in this edition, while "The Raid on Innsmouth" has been expanded with a new section.
