I kick back to share my review of the late 1960s campaign The Borellus Connection, for The Fall of Delta Green roleplaying game, from Pelgrane Press. The players will take on the roles of agents working for the United States Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs as they look to shut down a heroin smuggling ring. Of course, there’s more than that afoot as the agents will tangle with Cthulhu Mythos monstrosities and more.

The volume contains eight adventures spanning the globe.

SUMMARY

There's plenty in the mix of The Fall of Delta Green: The Borellus Connection to keep players busy for quite a long time. There's loads of interesting set pieces and the campaign overall is very entertaining. I will say the tales can shift in tone rather quickly, and there's so much going on to juggle, these aren't adventures which can be run on autopilot; I certainly recommend The Borellus Connection for Handlers with a good amount of game mastering under their belts.
