    EU referendum: Leave Vote

    This is untrue. For one thing, every single EU directive has to pass through the parliament before it is ratified. How do you think the UK, or any other government, works? Do you think that all laws in the UK are written and implemented by the 650 members of parliament? Not at all. They are by...

    Legion Centuria vs Novac

    Depends how hard the legion hit them. They'd have to go up the hill to the NCR position, then cross a lot of open ground, taking fire from the snipers in the dinosaur before they got to Novac, it probably wouldn't be worth the casualties they'd take. Novac is of little strategic importance, and...

    Reconstructing Fallout 3 Retrospective Series

    Great read, thanks! Got a couple of thoughts on it: -Absolutely love the changes you've made to the game world, and especially the raiders. -I'm not 100% sold on the idea of the British as the antagonists. Just something about it doesn't really fit for me. I love the idea of the Dry Sea...

    would Fallout set in Canada gonna work?

    Doesn't even have to be 200 years after the war, could be 40 or 50. Canada wasn't hit too hard by the nukes, the US puppet government survived, but mutated wildlife is starting to appear from the south. The government is trying as hard as it can to maintain the pre-war America, but it's...

    Why is Caesar legion so hated?

    Everyone? Morals are a complex code developed over thousands of years that allow humans to work together and live as part of a society. If anything, they are even more important in the post-apocalypse, because with raiders, mutants and hostile wildlife, the only way for people to have any sort...

    Your Waifu/Husbando/Best Male/Girl in New Vegas?

    I'm sure there's a nice butch legionary for you to settle down with, no need to get jealous, there's plenty of same-sex action for everyone ;)

    Culture of Fallout

    That makes perfect sense. You might still be able to incorporate the concept into some larger faction of outcasts, but yeah, when you put it like that, an entire faction of homosexuals doesn't really make sense in-universe.

    How would someone put on power armor in Fallout 1, 2 & NV?

    There's a line in New Vegas when you get power armour training from the BoS which is something like "Think of it as a machine you operate, rather than an outfit you wear" From a purely mechanical point of view, the FO4 way makes the most sense, as breaking it into sections would make the whole...

    Why not? As RangerBoo touched on, it worked for Veronica

    Culture of Fallout

    Could be a cool concept actually. People in the post-apocalypse might be pretty concerned with repopulating the world, and I can see how that would lead to some intolerance of people who weren't "doing their part", so to speak. A tribe of exiled homosexuals could be an interesting thing to...

    Fixing Big Town and Little Lamplight

    Or have it like a wolfpack where only the "Alpha couple" are allowed to breed, and any challengers are exiled, meaning Little Lamplight is comprised mainly of the Alpha couple and their offspring, and Big Town is a growing community who hate them. Both are pretty much feral tribals, and you have...

    Culture of Fallout

    Judah Kreger is a black former Enclave officer, which means there were black people at the highest level of the US government pre-war. It's not concrete evidence, of course, but to me that suggests at least some of the regions of the commonwealth had moved on from segregation, in spite of being...

    What would you do?

    It's not really individual ranchers who hold the power, it's the barons, who will own huge ranches or collections of ranches, and also probably parts of the supply chain and related industries. In fact, as a small farmer, you'd probably have a pretty difficult time, as you'd be squeezed pretty...

    Who's best for America?

    Unfortunately yes. The only way to really stop that is to make the masses less ignorant, which a lot of people at the top have a vested interest in not doing. But at least there is some form of accountability, which is immeasurably better than nothing. Nobody ever seems able to point to a truly...

    Who's best for America?

    Plenty of problems with the American system, but the fact that they elect representatives isn't one of them. Not everybody has the time to read up and make an informed decision about every single piece of legislation that goes through, from trade deals to health care to gay marriage. That's why...

    New Vegas a bit rewritten and a bit redesigned

    Wow, that looks awesome! Looks like it's time to start another NV playthrough... Yeah, Zion was a bit fetch-questy, even if I did really enjoy exploring that amazing worldspace. I mean, if you wanted to go that way, you could just write out the white legs entirely. If there isn't a convenient...

    New Vegas a bit rewritten and a bit redesigned

    Why would the legion send much-needed troops to capture Zion when they could get the White Legs to do it for them and assimilate them later?
