Against the Vampire Conspiracy: Ties of Blood (Session 3)
Will H runs for Alun R., Donogh, Puckett, and Sabine V.
The conclusion to Operation 2! Konstantyn harnesses the dark, Mia makes a friend, Yelena absolutely cleans house and Dylan deals with a contact corrupted by Vampiric Mesmerism.
Against the Vampire Conspiracy: Ties of Blood (Session 4)
Will H runs for Donogh, Puckett, and Sabine V.
The Conspiracy makes a mistake and the operators seize upon it. Scrambling to hide their secrets, key files about EDOM's HMS Prosperine operation have been temporarily stashed in a gangster's storage depot, no questions asked. Some bribes get the team through the door - just in time for the Playboy's rivals to launch an attack on the compound!
Delta Green: Divergence (Session 10)
Lowell Francis runs for Alun R., Horst Wurst, Paul Rivers, and Will H
The team finally forcibly confront the strangeness of the town and see further behind the veil. One team member is rescued and another wakes up with a corpse and little memory of events. Finally they decide to take things on directly leading to a factory of horrors, a conflagration, a cross-country hike, and a new mission briefing.

Monsterhearts: Every Heart a Doorway (Session 2)
Steven S. runs for David Morrison, Kae, Marleigh, and Sabine V.
We are introduced to our final main character, Formorian Grace, and see our characters start their day at the Open Door Academy.

It's only the first session and we're already doing a musical interlude!
Star Wars Saturday

Anders runs for Marc Majcher, Mark (they/them), Rich Rogers, and Steven Watkins
New Crew?! - Things take a turn as the father of Bria's son shows up and Etema goes on tour! Less action but a lot of discussion about the future of the crew. I guess we're heading into season three?
