Publication history
[edit]Shannon Appelcline explained that with the Delta Green setting, "the best-received book was a massive supplement three years in the making, Delta Green: Countdown (1999), in which Detwiller, Glancy, and Tynes massively expanded the setting".[3]: 88 Blair Reynolds pained the cover, and this was his final published work for role-playing games for about a decade.[3]: 90 Delta Green: Countdown had difficulty selling in Germany due to the country's censorship laws and the Nazi imagery present on the cover art.[3]: 85
In 2026, Countdown was re-released as Delta Green: The Millenium, as part of the Delta Green: The Conspiracy Kickstarter's stretch goals to update classic sourcebooks for the standalone Delta Green role-playing game.[4]
Reception
[edit]Delta Green: Countdown won the Origins Awards for Best Roleplaying Supplement of 1999.[5]
