In-game mechanics: You need to eat, sleep, and drink. Combat can be very lethal, a bullet to the head and you have to start over at a point I decide (so you don't get placed in a part where you would not be able to actually survive). You have to properly maintain your equipment to ensure that it will work properly and not jam/break on you. Combat is turn-based and based mostly on the old fallout games (1 and 2). Being a mean , belligerent , jackdonkey will not get you far if you don't have the force to back it up, and you often will not. There are no artificial boundaries on where you can go, just natural limits (you can't swim to China, no food in some areas particularly devoid of life, places thick with enemy life). Finally, if you want to improvise in a combat situation, you can most defintely do that if it makes sense.

First option:

When your 13th birthday came , you decided to:

A. Skip class, grab a power map, and explore a little outside the base
B. Go out into the woods with your dad's 22. and shoot some targets
C. Go into Downtown Portland , try to steal something good for yourself.
D. Help your brother hunt some geckos for dinner with your new spear.

Are power maps an instrument?

Yes. Let's you see any area explored by the Enclave, with some outdated maps available for non-Enclave/you explorered areas.

(This is a starting option to give you some things you're skilled in and to decide where you start)

I'm feeling map af today.

Let's go A

When you were 13, you decided to skip class because it was your birthday. You grabbed a nifty little power map, snuck out of the main gate to the base you live in and then went along a road until a patrol lead by your dad found you. He gave you a stern talking to, and took you back to base.

Five years later: You sit down at a table across from a few stern looking officers. They have summoned you to a office to have a discussion with you about some important business. The one with the most stars on his uniform begins to speak "Young man, me and my fellow officers have selected you for a very important thing. As you know, since the NCR entered the area, we have been on lockdown. We saw what they did to us at Navarro, and what they did to the Brotherhood. They so far are not aware of our existence. But I need you to do something important. Any questions before we begin?"

Answer:
A.No sir

B.Yes sir(ask what you want)

Edited 3/20/2016 07:19:31

B , is this going to be dangerous?

EDIT : You have to wait your turn star wars nerd

Edited 3/20/2016 15:39:10

I would like to override that.

B, What is the best equipment you can give me for this clearly important mission? (It's obviously going to be dangerous)

The officer exclaims "Listen, we can't give you anything too advanced incase you get killed and your body is found. Hellfire winding up in a NCR base would turn some heads for sure. We can provide you with some leather armor, a laser pistol, a power map, a pip-boy, 200 caps, and some rations. Now can we get down to the mission?"

A. Yes sir
B. No sir (ask question)

A

"Good. I need you to go north to Umatilla , a settlement not too far to the north. Built on a old military base. There is a code there that we need to activate a generator in this base, or we'll end up losing power. When you get it, high-tail it back to here. That is all, dismissed."

You gather your equipment and personal belongings, and exit the base.

You are outside of the base, on a road that hasn't been traveled on in a long while. To the left and right are some woods, probably dense with some creepiness you don't want to see.

A. Travel on the road north
B. Go left towards some woods
C. Go right towards some woods

A , i think of my loved ones while i go down the road

Edited 3/20/2016 17:37:06

As you go along the road, you think of the president. Oh, his face fills your mind, and you feel like you could fight for him. Kill for him. Hail president Johnson!

*you gain a indoctrination bonus! Your strength increases, while your perceptive skills lower slightly, due to your one minded love and pursuit of the goals that your president counts on you to do*

You go along the road until you find a small house, and a old man sitting on a bench outside with a rifle.

A. Talk to the old man
B. Continue down road

B

You continue down the road until you see a group of bandits running down a hill. They have machetes and one has a sledgehammer.

A. Run back down the road
B. Run up the road
C. Start combat( it is advisable to get a weapon out before starting combat)

Edited 3/20/2016 18:24:13

C: take out my plasma pistol , check it then go charging while shouting FOR THE PRESIDENT

(Ignore Paugers, he's too stupid to do anything else. Anyone but him can continue.)

You do not have a plasma pistol.
You pull out your laser pistol, load 32 of your 80 small energy cells , and start combat.

There are 3 bandits

A. Target first bandit
B. Target second bandit
C. Target third bandit
D. Run away

(In combat you can post as much as you want, regardless of your status as non-VIP, to keep it faster-paced)

Edited 3/20/2016 18:37:32

A

You target the first bandit.

You have a 90% chance to hit the head
You have a 95% chance to hit the body
You have a 90% chance to hit the left arm
You have a 90% chance to hit the right arm
You have a 85% chance to hit the left leg
You have a 85% chance to hit the right leg

You can fire 5 times this turn

You can target additional targets in the same turn. They do not have the same percentages as the currently focused on target and you can request the percentages for them.

(Pick the targets, pick where to hit them)
