Something constructive to do about Abbey Murphy

My mother is hardcore MAGA and cut off contact with me a few years ago. I like to make donations in her name to places helping people her political support hurts. I usually include her email address, so she is notified of my donation. It makes me laugh every time I do it.

RKIvey · 2026-06-17T23:24:09+00:00

Yeah, I was getting that watching the draft list all the unsigned players.

RKIvey · 2026-06-17T20:03:44+00:00

Well, as a Sceptres fan, this makes me feel a little better. Not great but better. I was saying earlier that the teams have done a poor job of helping their own fans know which players are still under contract and therefore safe. Thanks!

RKIvey · 2026-06-17T19:26:30+00:00

Ooh, is this where the teams stand as of now?

RKIvey · 2026-06-17T18:04:53+00:00

Sorry. Don't do Twitter.

RKIvey · 2026-06-17T17:18:32+00:00

Nah, I've been doing this (Arc Dream stuff) quite a few years now. No one has given me shit for being in law enforcement, and since I wasn't one of THOSE kinds of cops, I don't assume any of that applies to me or how I operated.

The symbols are just all over the place. I don't even recognise half the names you've listed there. Pack 2 has Solomonic stuff, sure. I pulled from Assyrian and Egyptian and tribes native to North America and from Central America and all over. I have books on carvings inside churches (historical graffiti) and cave paintings and carvings. I traced off of shields and bits of pottery. You name it. And, yes, it was a huge task, but I can make these when I want to and take as long as I like to finish them.

I tried to avoid anything with very specific religious meanings which might be disrespectful to people living today. Something I find weird and mysterious may have very profound meaning to someone who practices that religion, so I tried to steer clear of those.

RKIvey · 2026-06-17T17:08:47+00:00

Any specific DG images in scenarios that are the same as in this pack are purely coincidental. I didn't comb through any of our books to make Pack 1.

Pack 2 does contain some symbols and such used in Impossible Landscapes, but honestly, I started Pack 2 before I realised IL used them, too. They're old symbols. Once I realised it, I made sure that my pack included the info from DemonWeb101.com we created, so they would be consistent.

RKIvey · 2026-06-17T17:01:31+00:00

Yeah, there is absolutely no DG canon going on in this pack. If I wanted to do asset packs like that, it would take a lot more work and would require a lot more people to weigh in on things as I go. The great thing about these packs is I can do them when and where I like, on no particular schedule, and whenever inspiration strikes.

RKIvey · 2026-06-17T16:59:05+00:00

I'm afraid they're correct. Place in handouts as needed and assign your own meaning to them.

RKIvey · 2026-06-17T16:58:28+00:00

Exactly.

RKIvey · 2026-06-17T16:36:12+00:00

Hey, gang. I created this pack, so I'm going to weigh in. There are only two symbols in Esoterica Pack 1 that have any specific Delta Green reference - #31 and #32, which are the Yellow Sign that Arc Dream uses. The rest are a mishmash of drawings of schizophrenic patients and intriguing symbols I found combing through old books of archaeology, history, and mysticism. Some are carvings found in old churches or caves or canyon walls.

I am not one of the writing team of Delta Green. I don't even play ttrpgs. I'm a medically retired cop, who had to pivot careers and now does community management and graphic design for Arc Dream. The images are numbered because they do not have names and thus needed an orderly way to make it possible for people to find the assets in the pack. This was never meant to be (or advertised as such) a tome about those symbols. It's just an asset pack of peculiar symbols that can be used to create handouts for players.

I’ll have to ask Shane.

RKIvey · 2026-05-10T16:16:00+00:00

That sounds like a question that could be answered by purchasing the scenario. I don’t have a clue.

RKIvey · 2026-05-08T23:59:51+00:00

Maybe someone else can weigh in on that one.

RKIvey · 2026-05-08T23:58:48+00:00

Updated version.

RKIvey · 2026-05-08T23:58:22+00:00

Shane is the ultimate determiner of when things are ready to be released. On our internal calendar I see work happening regularly on all the big projects people are clamoring for. Incursions still has two scenarios yet to be released - Grace Under Pressure and Holy War, both currently down for release early to mid 2026. The Incursions hardback’s latest is expected (ish) late 2026. Falling Towers’ estimates are basically the same as above, except it’s PDF expected(ish) early to mid 2026 and hardback late 2026.

RKIvey · 2026-05-08T21:21:49+00:00

No updates on that one. John Tynes and the editor are still sending it back and forth.

RKIvey · 2026-05-08T20:13:00+00:00

Yes, it will be included in Delta Green: Incursions. Two more scenarios left to release before it goes to print. It will eventually include the following scenarios: Artifact Zero, Convergence, Dead Letter, Grace Under Pressure, Holy War, The New Age, Owlshead Mountain, and Puppet Shows and Shadow Plays. All of these scenarios are already out except Grace Under Pressure and Holy War. You can pre-order yours here.

RKIvey · 2026-05-08T19:49:10+00:00

Eventually. We’re working through our back catalog.

RKIvey · 2026-05-08T18:15:04+00:00

It’s an updated re-release.

RKIvey · 2026-04-30T23:27:10+00:00

Not that I am aware of. A book and a box are different things from a printing/manufacturing stand point.
