I also can live with the idea that NCR had some, they assaulted Navarro after all, and to the winner goes the spoils of war. This is like the past coming to life for a regular wastelander who might only have heard about these things in bedtime stories and old books. It was one of those things you did not expect to find in a Post Apocalypse setting like Fallout were modern industry seemed nothing more than a fairy tale, only to be surprised by actually seeing vertibirds manned by people in Advanced Power Armor.
I like Vertibirds, but what made them so special is because they were rare. I guess if you want to get rid of a trouble general that is getting a little to popular with the common people it is wise to send him away as far as possible but me thinks this whole setup of the Legion also going all the way there (actually it is a local tribe assimilated by the Legion) does smell a bit contrived. But the surname of that general? Blackthorne? I had to look it up to see if it was a real surname and not something from an Ultima game.Īnd the region? The State of Washington? Last I checked the NCR had barely expanded into North California into Oregon.Īnd the Legion is going to go through the state of Idaho in order to invade California through Washington and Oregon? Well I am sure they are not going to see that one coming but I am reminded of a Blackadder sketch in with the Duke of Wellington (played by Stephen Fry) tells Blackadder disguised as the Prince Regent that he has stationed Nelson and his forces in Alaska in case Bonaparte's army tries to attack the British army by going through the North Pole (despite being in North Africa at the moment). At first I didn't like it that much then later realized it has a lot in common with an idea I once had for a story involving an NCR military insurrection so I guess it could work.
Of course the whole winter setting is a little to get used to of course so perhaps that plays a role but there is something missing that makes me think more of a war themed FPS game or Fallout 3/Fallout4 (lots of space to go through, lots of landmarks/pre war references, but barely any settlements or quests.īeing a story fag I immediately of course checked out what the story was about. But after looking at this I can't say it really has a Fallout vibe for me yet. Now at one side I am of course interested in a new Fallout New Vegas expansion as it remains one of my current favorite games. I came across this news bit whole going through a Dutch news site: the announcement of a new fan made expansion mod for Fallout New Vegas called The Frontier
