The Bear Roars
The Year is 2282 and The NCR is at the apex of its power and seems only able to go up. Born in the deserts of California and quickly expanding, the fledgling successor the old United States has found itself beset by many of the problems of its predecessor, and then more. Back home in the grand capital of Shady Sands the Government is seemingly moribund. The NCR Congress debates over petty issues and is controlled by Brahmin Barons and corporate lobbyists as the President struggles to keep the increasingly divided nation together. Its armies are poorly led and spread thin as the Republic seeks expansion in all directions while simultaneously defending its cities from raiders and policing the ever lawless wastes. Its people are unhappy and rebellious as organizations long thought dead lay in wait for their turn to strike at the Republic. It was this Republic that stumbled upon the great Hoover Dam stretching across the Colorado River and met its greatest enemy, the despotic Caesars Legion and its reluctant partner New Vegas. After a indecisive battle at the Dam left the Republic committed to defending both it and New Vegas against Legion incursions, the Republic spend the next few years bleeding itself in a seemingly endless war against the Legion; then The Courier came along. Stories about what exactly the Courier did in the Mojave during his hunt for Benny involvement in the growing War, but what is known is that wherever the Courier went, the NCR soon found allies. Some were intimidated into friendship, others swayed by the Courier's various attempts to help them, whatever the reason however the result was undeniable. The Second Battle for Hoover Dam was a disaster for the Legion and a rousing victory for the NCR. House was dead and his City of Lights was in NCR hands, Caesar was dead and soon after the Legion began to tear itself apart in Civil War, the NCR assumed full control of the Mojave and began to prepare for colonization and annexation. However, not long after the Dam was secured the Courier vanished and with him went the security of his presence.
Now, a year later, and the NCR is once again just barely holding onto the Mojave. With the conclusion of the Dam Campaign attention in Congress turned to the brewing conflict between the Barons at home and possible exploitation of the Legion Civil War abroad. Troops and supplies, already thinly placed, were stripped to the absolute barest of essentials. The various raider gangs that had been cowed by the Courier once again roam the countryside raiding with little consequence, some of the NCR's allies in the region have grown wary of the NCR's heavy handed governing style and scheme amongst each other and order was only tenuously maintained outside of strongholds like Vegas and McCarran. Its in this climate that Administrator Crowder has arrived. A career politician from the Boneyard he has been sent to tame the Mojave in whatever way he seems fit. His history is not to telling about how he seeks to do so as he has dabbled both in heavy handed oppression and open hearted cooperation in his various postings in the Republic's frontier. With him is the military administration who will have their own agenda, and the various factions in the area who each will try and pull Crowder to their own way of thinking or, if they are feeling particularly rebellious, collapse it completely.
Take charge of your own fate and decide the future of the Mojave. Will you help Crowder bring peace to the land or will you push the area further into chaos? There is only one way to find out! Play the game and feel the mighty roar of the Californian Bear!
