Hello everyone, as you may see from the title, I am gauging interest for something I have been interested in doing since... last week. This is mainly to show that people are interested, however I'm not trying to get attention, this is mainly to motivate me to work on this.
I personally, am not the best at strategy, however my deep love of it and Fallout has made me want to do this for a while. I also plan on doing some more RP like writing to add more flavor past 'Look at him! He's everywhere!' however, the quality may be lacking, but for now, just keep expectations low.
I shall be using one of the two turn based options, I have no used either beforehand so there will be usage of both on the first and second mission if only to see how they work;I would use real time, however it may be harder to get screenshots due to the action being faster.
Between each mission I plan on having a vote for which party members we will take depending on the selection for variety's sake, equipment however will vary depending on what I can get.
Since party members after being killed come back to the recruitment center type thing, I have decided to put a rule, barring me from using them again if it turns out they die.
This will be a short OP at least for a bit, so bare with me until it gets worthy of the other OPs here;I plan to add the first Mission by Saturday at the very very latest.
Sidenote: Due to contradictions, I will say this. If it doesn't clash with canon, it is canon according to Bethesda.
I hope everything is of satisfactory quality and is descriptive enough to get my message across. I wish everyone a happy what have you.
The story for those who don't know.
War. War never changes.
In the years leading to the nuclear apocalypse that would eventually destroy the world, a network of vaults were constructed to contain the best and brightest of humanity. By being shielded from the imminent death, the offspring of these people could reclaim and repopulate the Earth. However, before the entire network could be completed, nuclear war broke out. In California, a unit of military men were forced to take shelter in a scientific installation as the bombs fell. These men found out the scientists they were "bunked" with were performing immoral experiments on human subjects. They deserted the army, put an end to the tests, and bunkered down until they believed the outside to be safe. Emerging relatively unscathed and with ample supplies of pre-War technology, they soon developed into a regional power called the Brotherhood of Steel. Over the years they tamed the land of raiders and mutated threats as they searched for more technology, which they were dedicated to preserving in order to rebuild their civilization.
Although the Brotherhood was one of the most powerful forces in the wasteland, attrition was still an issue, and the group found itself at odds over the need for new recruits. One faction supported allowing tribals (human outsiders) to join the organization and bolster their ranks, while others wanted to keep the Brotherhood pure. In the end, the majority supported keeping the Brotherhood exclusive, and the minority supporting outside expansion was sent across the mountains on great airships to destroy the remnants of the super mutant army. However, a catastrophic lightning storm struck the convoy during the journey, destroying many of the ships and taking the leaders of the expedition with them. The survivors were forced to land outside the ruins of Chicago, unable to contact their main bases for assistance.
Despite the grim situation, the Brotherhood forces found they had much to offer the native population, many of whom had never seen such advanced equipment. They developed a working relationship with the locals, offering protection and medicines for food and labor. New recruits were eagerly welcomed. Free from the restrictive ideology of the main organization, the Midwestern Brotherhood of Steel was free to forge its own identity, which reflected the inclusive ideals they had fought for all along.
