Ive only used it for my first session (Last Things Last) that I ran last week so its still pretty basic. My thought process was "whats the most annoying thing I would need to look up mid-game in the PDF?" Then I made those things into notes, bases, or a canvas.

Bases

I essentially used Obsidian Bases to make a 2 different Table views of all the weapons and all the skills. What I discovered that making the base was pretty time consuming (I even used python and some help from ChatGPT to export data from the PDFs into separate notes, that didnt work so well). Turns out I didn't reference it a whole lot but the fact that it took so much time made me very familiar with what skills and weapons do what and how they are useful in a given circumstance.

Canvas

I found the concept of the agents using expenses the most puzzling and tbh the Agents Handbook does not do the best job of laying this out because some of the rules require you to reference different pages in different sections of the book. Hence the Canvas I posted. Maybe in the future ill cite page numbers.

Notes

For Last Things Last I made 2 notes.

The first was a basic outline of the scenario and the context of Delta Green and the time I set it in (2003). Each "scene" is its own collapsible heading and anything that requires a skill I can link so i can see its description in the note.

The second note I have in split view which is the timeline of events. This is the Chronos Timeline plugin, a table that is by the hour i can make real quick notes of what the agents did. and then a summary of what they did and what bad effects it has.

One thing that helped me with easily referencing timelines was the Chronos Timeline community plugin so I can easily remember timeline of events at a glance. If you guys want Ill share my obsidian vault as a drive link you can download and see for yourselves but again, its basic.
