'''The Omega Delivery Dead''' is a 14-player [[theatre-style]] science fiction larp by Tony Mitton, based loosely on ''Firefly''. The game has been frequently run in the [[USA]], [[UK]] and [[New Zealand]], and is a regular at [[Intercon]] and [[Consequences]].<ref>[http://larpresume.boldlygoingnowhere.org/games/483/the-omega-delivery The Omega Delivery]. ''Larp Resume''. Retrieved 31 August 2017. Note that the Larp Resume database is incomplete and will not list all ruins of a game.</ref>

The game is a sequel to [[The Linfarn Run]] and [[The Koenig Dead]] and forms part of a series informally known as the "''Kestrel'' saga". Other games in the series include [[The Kouros Intercept]], [[The Constanta Blockade ]] and [[The Markov Solution]].

==Summary==
Lucky Federal Investigation Office agents get some great postings. Maybe they’ll travel the galaxy hunting down Freedom Alliance terrorists; seduce co-eds with heroic tales whilst on the milk round; bravely protect Federation citizens from gangster scum; or get close protection duty for a retired President living in luxury on a Greek island.

Unlucky - or out of favour - FIO agents get assignments like Omega Station. It’s in the middle of nowhere. There’s nothing to do; and - with the base’s long-term inhabitants theoretically off limits - nobody to talk to save a few similarly out of favour colleagues.

Really unlucky FIO agents end up somewhere like Omega in a situation like this one. Why worry the base is going to go nuclear in five hours, when you’ll be dead from CO2 poisoning in less than two? And why is the beaten-up freighter just arriving with your regular delivery - and perhaps rescue - not the ship you were expecting?

''The Omega Delivery'' is a fairly downbeat science-fiction game loosely based on an increasingly-distant Joss Whedon TV show. It is set in the Linfarn Universe and a semi-sequel to ''The Koenig Dead'', although no knowledge of previous games is required or expected.
