I would like to, again, state my question.

Are weapons modified in ways that are not Fallout canon OK?

What do you mean? Like putting on a silencer or something?

No. Like me having crude quad-mounted Light Machine Guns (The ones in NV) like the Russians did, WW2. Stationary, of course.

Yeah, I don't think it would be hard to weld machine guns to a bar.

Cool.

Permit me to again observe that an LMG does 21 damage per shot, and a Tesla Cannon does 80 damage per shot. Four LMGs are one Tesla, but with the joy of having lots of ammo.

In any case, thanks.

So what is the situation in The Commonwealth, since 4 isn't canon?

Question.

How prevalent are vehicles / the equipment necessary to repair and use them? I mean, like...cars (Not of nuclear design, that is).

Name: Erik Zaleski, General
Age: 54
Gender: Male
Appearance: An aging man, General Zaleski is of slight build. His muscles have long-since atrophied, and he must use a cane to walk. His hair, brown, has since began to bald heavily, and his moustache becoming rather decrepit in recent years. He uses reading glasses as well, as his eyes have become rather cloudy.

---

Strength: 2
Perception: 4
Endurance: 3
Charisma: 9
Intelligence: 10
Agility: 3
Luck: 9

Skills:
Well-Versed: He has read Napoleon, the teachings of Rommel, and the Art of War. As such, his knowledge on tactics is very, very good. In addition to this, he has read on the Tachankas of earlier periods, in addition to tanks.
Bulldog: Whatever physical faults the man might have, he is relentless. In his eyes, strength lies in digging in, persevering where others cannot. In that measure, he is a strong advocate of the Maginot doctrine, as it were.
Diplomat: While his tactics have not been used in some time, if at all, he has become extremely skilled, albeit skills without use, in the art of negotiation. He brings an abrupt sense of honesty, and is quick-witted enough to spot a bad deal.
Technical: As a former Engineer, Zaleski has great knowledge in that field, knowing how to break something apart and put it back together again. He, in his younger years, spent a long time looking at the Vertibird, the designs and the like, which had been a part of the Vault’s systems.

Weaknesses:
Crippled: Due to instances in his youth, Zaleski is crippled. He cannot run, and can only maintain a hobbled walk. In addition to this, he cannot bend his left leg entirely.
Weak: As a young man, and indeed now, Zaleski was weak in stature due to long stints in the hospital. He cannot lift heavy objects, in any capacity, though luckily, in his position, he does not have to.
Weapons:.32 Pistol, .45 Auto SMG
Other Items: He doesn’t carry much, on his person. An engraved lighter, a pack of cigarettes, and perhaps a chocolate or two. He’s known to like those.
Bio Born into the Vault, as a young man Zaleski did as most young, intelligent men did; he became an Engineer. While a prestigious reader, the man was extremely interested in the machinery of the Vault, and of the Pre-War world. He quickly learnt the machinations of a machine gun, Power Armor, and the Vertibird, along with technology that came far before. He was so interested, in fact, that he volunteered to discover why the Vault’s generators were not working at full capacity, and as a result, now walks with a limp.

After this accident, and several more, left him permanently incapable of performing the physical duties one would expect of an Engineer, such as moving about, handling tools, and fixing things, Zaleski went into politics, or rather, the Vault’s equivalent. He was greatly useful in administration, acting with supreme knowledge of the affairs within 93, and became close with the old General. The man would, later, pass his sword onto Zaleski, who has since lead with less religious fervor against the natives and with just as much skill. It was his decision to open the Vault and establish the community, with the intent of bringing ties with the native peoples and repopulating, as it were, with fresh genes. His mild acceptance of the natives has, to his dismay, not been shared with the rest of the Republic.

There's 7 or 10 confirmed trucks able to be sustained with FNV times NCR resources. Fuels a big draw back.

Your right Alinora. 1 day should be the minimum time necessary to travel across country if the speed is 350 mph.

All established material in Fallout 4 is rendered non-Canon. As such we know what was established in fallout 3, which is there is the institute creating human like androids called synths and they live in a slave like existence. Such a society also has a large slave finder service. That's about the extent of our knowledge though.

Your mad at me for my actions earlier today then? Or is that a joke?

It's just a prank bro.

The example you gave earlier with 4 LMGs on a stand, is fine.

[Ormata]

Well, OK then.

I may attempt to pull Tachankas with battery-powered carriages, or some shite (Because Tachankas are cool).

Also, is my General OK, or...?

[Ameige]

So in regards to the latest poll about the fallout 4 background. Are we referencing the actual game or did NAR make up something to use to make an excuse to involve the commonwealth?

I ask cause I just got my computer working again today so I haven't had time to go through everything and read all that has been going on since my absence a few weeks ago.

[Ameige]

I haven't seen ceasars legion in sway gear. The legion has the same gear found in the game.

Yes, but based on Alouite's post "His men has abandoned their former costumes for SWAT team gear". Which I suppose is okay. I would think that a city like Flagstaff would have plenty of SWAT gear.

There is only two pieces of swat gear in the game. Pre-war swat gear which is only found in the divide and the ncr ranger gear which is pre-war swat gear with a trench coat over it and a sling of portable pockets across the chest and the helmet seems to look a bit different for some reason.

[Ameige]

Before NAR flips out and says my ghoul's backstory doesn't work, a few things to point out.
First off, they have had computers in fallout since before the war.
As well as apparently the ability to hack into terminals and get into secure data files.
Cause they sure didn't just magically get those abilities post-war out of the blue. So data analysis.

Secondly, there is a mission in new vegas where forensics is involved to frame Heck Gunderson for the murder of his missing son.
Mind you yes I know the forensics scanning was done by a robot but forensics must have existed pre-war for Mr.House to program the ability to do that into his robots in the first place.

Plus I was just using those as examples for what fancy government stuff he might have done pre-war as it was the only things I could think of at the time. Im sure he did more stuff but I cant think of anything else that isn't basically just paper pushing.

Will you please, and I ask genuinely, cut that shit out.

I don't wake up at 5am to look on here and see you ranting about random shit and trying to take shots at me like what I do is unreasonable.

Again, stop doing that shit. Why would some random ass museum dude know how to do forensics? That's a specific trade in itself.

I only spouted it cause I knew you would eventually bitch about it sooner or later.
And none of my characters are random ass museum dudes. That is the other ghoul talking to mine.
Mine is pre-war government, as stated in the post. Possibly CIA or FBI or something.

As for my beginning comment, this rp was originally meant to be based out of the areas around fallout new vegas.
You decided to open up a fallout 3 region. It only stems to reason that if something fallout 4 based, also not fallout new vegas, comes up, you had something to do with it. Unless something has happened over there that Im not aware of, you and whoever is rping with you, are the only ones currently rping in the east coast.

So I assumed you likely brought up the idea of opening up the fallout 4 area.
That's all Im saying there. I would be surprised if anyone else brought it up seeing as most people are still playing in the new vegas area, or in cainesland case, also in Canada.

I mean seriously, the only two major introductions of space into this rp were the D.C wasteland which was your doing, and Canada, which was cainesland's doing. Other people have had all the time since fallout 4 came out to ask about it but I haven't heard anything about anyone asking until I just came back today and all of a sudden there is a poll about it.

I find it highly unlikely Cainesland would suggest it so I figured it must have been you. Not trying to take pot shots.
Just trying to get things straight here is all. Im a curious person like that.

[Alinora]

No Ameige, this RP was meant to start in the Mojave and expand to different areas.

[Ameige]

No Ameige, this RP was meant to start in the Mojave and expand to different areas.

Yes I am aware of that. I do believe Alouite mentioned that earlier. I just don't think anyone expected you to bring in an area from a game placed that far away. Its D.C from fallout 3. on the other side of the country. Unless its enclave with a vertibird its kinda difficult to get over there. Its a bit of a shock that anyone would want to rp over there where most of the other players would likely find it hard to get to unless they are flying there.

That's what really bugs me. Originally it was the "leaving the Mojave" thing,
but then Alouite mentioned that we were eventually meant to expand so Im not upset over that anymore.

I just figured since you were the main protagonist I guess in opening up the D.C wasteland in this rp, that it makes sense that you might have been the person that said "hey lets open up the commonwealth." Not trying to take pot shots.
Just trying to make sense of everything. I didn't expect to come back and get some telegrams about this and come onto the OOC and see a poll about it. Just kinda threw me for a loop. still reeling from it.

No worries though, if you are the one that suggested it in the first place like I am assuming you are, Its cool.
I suggested it earlier, but got told its not something we are doing yet. So if you got it open, well good for ya.
Will give my other ghoul something to do. The one I was going to replace taliyn with in the last incarnation's little d.c presidential running that never happened. I literally just made him and a couple days later we were rebooted so I never got to do anything with my enclave/vault-tec ghoul. I know I know, cliché much seeing as there is a cannon vault-tec ghoul already in fallout 4.
But mine was more hands-on. Building them and overseeing that everything went right as vault-tec and the enclave wanted and things like that. I made a whole detailed description of his backstory a few pages back if anyone wants to take a gander.

Never got anything to do with him, so my idea was that he was originally from the commonwealth, he visited D.C for awhile, partially as a tourist, partially looking for work, got out of there when the whole enclave assault on project purity thing started happening and high tailed it back home before one side or the other decided he need to get involved or he got shot in the cross-fire or something like that.

The game. So any history or information introduced with fallout 4 is rendered non-canon by the vote.
