Also remember folks, Super mutants need housing, and FEV labs need to be built.

>>1644045
Construction. Make a powder Plant, we're on 90% and we can't make more robots without power.

Military. Train our sneak team, to able to blend in with the enemy. Having spies will be helpful to get insider info.

Research. A efficient powder plant?

Hero: Can either help with independence day, or he can go on a sneaking mission, to NCR to get some blueprints, or some books not sold to the public.

Civ: Can prepare for independence

We should look into buying more of the cows/brahmin. So we can run a stable diet of meat. More cows, allow for more milk, and milk that people like. also to transport goods.

P'much.

You haven't opened the borders, neither have they for anything but diplomatic envoys.

Yes

>>1644265
Actually, i say we use the boon next turn on founding day, its nore thematically appropriate

>>1644257
No, don't spend the boon guys, with that boon we can make our Vending machines use electricity instead of fissile materials.

>>1644263
no. Best keep it so the actual party is off the chain, not the prep.

Currently you have:
1 General Boon
1 Holiday Boon
1 Robotics Boon

>>1644287
Wait what's the difference between them? Can Holiday boons be only used for holidays and celebrations?

>>1644291
Thematically it'd be appropriate, especially considering your faction.

But boons typically apply to a whole turn.

>>1644298
So we can use a holiday boon for a celebration and to make our Vending machines use electricity instead of fissile materials if it's on the same turn?

>>1644311
The Turn has already been locked.
Not going to answer that at this time.

>>1644287>>1644316
If victory day is next turn. We could not use the boon until on the day.

>>1644323
Technically speaking this is what happened last time. Preparations must be made for any sort of celebration after all, much like the celebrations you did last time.

>>1644328
K So using a boon to prepare will be like having a boon at the holiday? If so I agree to use it.

It strikes you that, in making these two things, you might be able to kill two birds with one stone. Or you could still make two separate AI's

CHOOSE:
-Pick Someone to set the personality for our new Radio AI. Like Moreno, or Dean Domino, or someone friendly like Ben.
>Oh! Or perhaps a girl. That would be very popular everywhere. Someone like Jane or Marilyn.
-Go Find Mr. New Vegas! Maybe we can recover him
-Perhaps if we expanded our Man in Black Security AI to both roles. Maybe make him a little less spooky?

>>1644391
>Find Mr. New Vegas and his new Co-Host, Ms. New Phoenix.

>>1644406
Would you like Ms. New Phoenix to be based on anyone?

>>1644391
Ms New Phoenix should be someone rougher than Mr. New Vegas.
I'm thinking Cass

As for Mr. New Vegas, he's probably tied to the Lucky 38. Way too much of a hastle

>>1644413
Whoses the Most Chasma fucker we got thats a woman? Unity?

>>1644406
I agree with this.

>>1644413
For ms. Phoenix I'm thinking a female role model for the girls.

>>1644427
Technically yes, but Charisma isn't everything. Personality, tone of voice, attitude, whatever you find most appealing.

>>1644406
I support this.

As to who should be the woman, If were going for charisma, I would say Unity, but if you want confidence and determination, i say Cass or Veronica

Unity has a daughter to take care of.

Male voice - Moreno (shock jock type)
Female voice - Unity (calm, warm, reassuring)

Great contrasting personalities

I feel as if Unity is too, passive?, to be a radio host. Especially when paired with Mr. New Vegas. We want someone rougher around the edges to play up some contrast.

A quick ZAP, and you're back to the Mojave. Back to Caesars new Rome.

And the Mojave is certainly changed.

Those outlying settlements and villages now bloom green. You see stretches of stone aqueducts extending from the snowcapped mountains, or from far off and no doubt the Hoover Dam, flowing water into the once arid Mojave turning parts of it green with wheat and fruit.

The villages have expanded considerably. It being only a few years most of these are probably not from population growth but likely from further immigration from the east.

But your goal is to find and rescue Mr. New Vegas, if there is anything left of him. It does strike you that the most obvious place would have to be somewhere with a working Radio Tower.

You wonder about the mystery of Mr. New Vegas. How does he know so much? Does he simply listen to the people on the Strip for their rumors. Yet he is highly accurate and knows of things beyond the strip. Particularly telling is that he knew about your "rising from the dead".

So perhaps, his eyes and ears, like Victor, were the Securitrons themselves. Hopping from one robot to another.

Maybe. That's just one theory.

It strikes you that if he were indeed a creation of House, and ergo, a return to the lucky 38 is warranted.

>>1644597

We need to come back some time in the future when our army is capable enough. Fuck Caesar's worthless Luddite take on technology that isn't good for killing shit

>>1644625
obviously. But for now, Lucky 38, find Mr. New Vegas's hard drive and ditch.

Brb anon's, I am NOT done for the night but I promise I'll be running later in a few hours. Getting some IRL distractions

>>1644630

For Caesar's desecration I propose that we give him the most undignified, humiliating, and painful death we can suffer. A message to whoever wants to repeat this worthless parasite's history

>>1644625
Seems like they are using the river to grow shit. Instand of repairing the dam for energy.

>>1644647
Is the dam just a bridge now? Is the dam still holding back the water or the water is flowing because of the blast?

Part of me want to build a digger robot that way we can make escape tunnels, for our people.

Odd Ball had a escape tunnel and it worked out great.

Also having some underground storage space could be useful. Who knows we can make ant robots as a way to keep noisy people away. Just thinking with robots, we can remake lost animals with robots, or help with our industry.

>>1644680
We really are NOD aren't we?

>>1644680
If we had a tunneler we could just dig a tunnel through the boarder mountain into the mojave. Would mean we wouldn't have to slog through the divide.

>>1644697
Underground Railroad

Maybe have a robot with a big drill, make the tunnel, we make the supports, and railway. It's going to take time and supplies, but in the end we get a secret tunnel to transport things to and fro, faster and less chance of enemies coming in and ruining it.
Just some problems, is underground creatures/monsters, tunnelers, but it's something to think about.

>>1644680

Dinosaur warbots when?

>>1644710

Is it possible that we could tame the tunnelers?

>>1644717
>Dinosaur warbots when?
Yes, we can look at animals for ideas to use on robots.

We have EDE as a floating robot, but what about making a robot in the shape of a bird mostly to spy on stuff.

There also a idea of making small dive bomber, a robot that can fly is build and hold a mini-nuke. They will either be really quick and reach the target and blow up the mini-nuke, or be like a small bomber shape like a bird to drop a mini-nukes at enemy locations.
The smaller and quicker the robot the less harm it can come to it. Also first time facing this new robot, enemies would think it's a harmless bird from afar.

>>1644718
>Fire. Burn em out. The only good bug is a dead bug. It's not like robots are going to be chocked out by lack of oxygen
Yeah that can work, what are some uses we can do with the dirt dug up from tunnels? I know there's going to be dirt, and stone, maybe we can find a hidden aquifer.

Some defenses we can easily make is sandbags, we're all around desert, and with enough sandbags it can stop the caliber the NCR is using. Robots can easily do the job/

>>1644755
Stealth UAV's should be developed. Surveillance, Recon and surgical strikes. If it flies above the clouds, they may not see it before it lets loose its payload.

>>1644755
I had the thought of taking our robo scorpion design, and shrinking them down too the size of an actual scorpion, deploy them in swarms and use them as dissasemblers/shredders.

>>1644761
Opposite of mine then.

>"Did he just call his planet dirt? Look at that primitive power armor. Is that fucking nuclear powered?"

They seem to think our armor is primitive, we could check out the armor they had, if it can use to make improvements. If anything it can be used for other officers.
Space Mercs, could have better suits than us. And the guns could be useful in our research.

>>1644768
I gotta say i think that looks awful personally, but from a practical standpoint if it gets the job done appearances dont reallly matter.

>>1644771
What exactly about it's appearance looks awful? Cause personally i think a giant robo scorpion bursting from the ground to attack a tank with it's claws and melt it with it's tail laser is awesome.

>>1644771
have to agree. Scorpion tanks from TW looked better. Especially once fully upgraded with the laser cannon and mower

>>1644778
The act you described, yes sounds awesome, but when I see the tank in the link, it just looks like someone gave 50%effort to make it scorpion theme.

I'm not voting against it, I just feel it looks more goofy, than deadly.

>>1644778
They look kinda silly. With the wheels and the dinky claws and the tail that sticks up like a flag pole. I know it's a small obelisk of light, but it looks funny in motion.

..... ill stop now

>>1644822
Like OP said.
Bigger and More armored is easier than Smaller and economically.

What I want is always the scorpion is useful, the thing I feel we need most is tactically weapons. Like a robot that's the size of bird, dropping mini-nukes on enemy positions.

Sometimes you got to think what will hurt the enemy the most if they try to attack us. Hidden weapons sometimes causes the most damage.

>>1644822
I like how the tiny arms are a knife and fork.

Like how after it murders you with its massive stinger, it sits down for a spot of fine dining.
Ready at any moment to have a meal in high society.

>>1644836
it's also wearing a bowtie

>>1644852
>Exactly why i want to build scorpion tanks, desert ambushes against the NCR's tanks.
To do that I make my point of making digger robots. Maybe making exist points from our town, as if we're being attack, we can flank them by the tunnels we made before.

Also the scorpion tanks will need to be able to dig the ground if we go with that desert ambushes.

>>1644874
Sounds like c&c generals tunnel network.
http://cnc.wikia.com/wiki/Tunnel_Network

>>1644880
Yes that's the plan. Underground rails will help us move supplies quickly.

We could work on the government, like a military structure. Making a mail system, recreate the internet so our people can send e-mails, and look up information in our website.

>>1644502
Unity. I hate Cass

How feasible is it for us to make flyers? Replicate the alien tech and get fast attack craft to take down boomer bombers for example?

>>1645263
The thing about the alien tech is that it need alien material.

There is planes that the NCR are flying, (We can steal some blueprints of them, unless we already have some in bigMT) but for the alien tech we're going to spend some turns to learn more about it.

Fallout Tactics is non cannon don't know if OP want it to be cannon in the thread. Blue in NCR is us, and that deep red near us is the divide, don't know how far it goes north. Tried my best.

But here is a map, there is map of Fallout 3 and 4, but we don't know what;s happening. I made the map so we have a easily time knowing what's going on with the world.

QM what do you think about the map I posted? I know it's not finished but it's a start.

If you give boon on art, isn't a map give us a boon. Just because it make life for us eaiser.

>>1645495
It's nice. I'll think of something decent.

I won't say its 100% accurate, but with the NCR's shifting fronts and shifting territorial claims, and no one truly knowing the full extent of the Legion, even in universe it would be hard to find a 100% accurate map.

>>1645509
Yeah making a map is hard to do. Also it's really depends on you OP what extend the legion has.

But I feel I at least got 70% right, that good enough for the people of the wastes. So it's good enough for us.

Our nation and the things around will be the most important thing on the map, while the rest is up to decied and us to find out.

Just saying the map can be changed as we move along. The map is helpful showing how big is our nation. I think I did a good job on us, and the divide, but don't know how long it goes for.

New Vegas. The Old Spirit giving way to the new. Little of the scrap steel and rubble'd ruins remain now, replaced by manicured marble and stone. The Colloseum project of Caesars, that great behemoth, worked by slaves and men day and night for three years nearly in completion. A monument to Caesar.

The Lucky 38 has changed as well, bearing the insignia of the Bull. That radio tower you installed on the roof is gone, replaced by a bronze statue of Caesar himself, overlooking his own city.

Invisible to all, you make your way past the crowds of pilgrims, civilians, slaves and soldiers once more you move into the Lucky 38.

The Casino within is all but gone. Changed now into a great trophy room of the Legion's spoils of war, attended by slaves.

Not bothering with the penthouse, you make your way down a service stairs to the basement. The old Securitron Testing room. Now without securitrons, or equipment. Abandoned. But not entirely.

There is a door here, a vault door. Caesar could not wipe the sign of the Lucky 38 from it.

You take the platinum chip and enter it into the slot, going into the building.

You hear music playing as machinery hums around you, while you look for a terminal. There you find one, with a camera above it, and you step into the light to be seen.

>Mr. New Vegas
"Well . . .Howdy! I am the one, the only, Mr. New Vegas! and I'm very pleased to make your acquaintance. Perhaps you've heard of me?"

>You
[Hello Mr. New Vegas. I'm the Courier from Goodsprings. You're a very famous person]

>Mr. New Vegas
"The Courier from Goodsprings, what an amazing meeting. I hear I'm almost as famous as you!"

>You
[Hah. How has business been?]

>Mr. New Vegas
"Well. . . I'm sorry to say, business hasn't been up to par. Mr. House, the father of New Vegas, dissapeared one day. Then the Securitrons left, leaving me blind as well as dumb. All I had were the Camera's on the strip itself, until Caesars legion removed even those and the radio tower too.

Now I think my broadcast isn't even leaving the room"

>You
[That's a shame. Tell you what though, I got a proposition for you]

>Mr. New Vegas
"And what might that be?"

>You
[Come with me. Leave Caesars city, work out west and bring your news and your music to people who want to hear it again]

And I did hear what Caesar's new protegee said about your desert settlement.

You're out there, alone and isolated, trying to hide from the NCR. Now it sounds to me like I'd be exchanging one lonely prison for another."

>You
[Well surely even a single settlement is better than nobody listening to you at all]

>Mr. New Vegas
"Maybe. . .but if you'd be willing to do me a favor. . .I would like to see the NCR."

>You
[Why is that?]

NCR kinda has a book burning, media censorship thing going on. You wont really like it. We'd give you more creative freedom

Side note, Ceaser knows avout us and it seems Vulpes is moving up in the world, unless the protege is the mutant.

Eh, my bad. Im just waking up, sorry if my argument isnt that eloquent

>>1645653
>>1645643
>>1645659

Am I understanding him right? I think he just wants to visit the place.

It depends if NCR agrees (which I doubt they will), we can build him a humanoid body which he can use to interact and report in ncr.

>>1645667
I think he wants to see if the NCR is worth settling down in. We want him to settle in our lands and maybe go to the ncr to report.

>>1645674
Yeah, the whole censor and book burning thing will hopefully turn him off. Unless he wants to start a pirate station.

I mean, why not? We could have our companions regularly come and share their stories, secrets, etc. For example, we could have a Saturday evening show where Riddick narrates his real adventures. People would think it's just some enthralling sci-fi stories.

And we can have a weekly fireside chat shere we answer peoples questions directly. e someone suggested a bit back

Direct feedback from our citizens? Beats sneaking around and listening in their conversations.
They could also send their suggestions and complaints to Mr Vegas, which we can overlook.

>>1645767
When we build a mobile medical bay for the doctor deal, we can include a reporter body so our people can get news from the fronts.

I support that.

Say what you will about Ceasar, he has achieved much with what he had: uneducated tribals.

>>1644648
Personally I want to just take him as a pet / adviser. Plus having him could make it easier to absorb the remnants of his people.

>>1644652
Of course they want the water, they don't use electricity and yes the water is free flowing now I'd presume.

>>1644680
Such a robot would be useful, especially since we know there are underground rivers in our region which we could exploit for more water.

>>1645808

>Say what you will about Ceasar, he has achieved much with what he had: uneducated tribals.

And what's that exactly? Being nothing really more than a marauding band of murderers, slavers, rapists, torturers? The only reason that they've lasted so long is on luck, slaves, and the fact that the NCR was a bloated from corruption to do next to nothing. What with having people like Moore and Oliver there dealing with them, I'm surprised the NCR held out as long as it did.

>Personally I want to just take him as a pet / adviser. Plus having him could make it easier to absorb the remnants of his people.

I'd rather see Caesar get executed personally by Joshua. The only parts of the Legion that can honestly be saved are the slaves

>Of course they want the water, they don't use electricity and yes the water is free flowing now I'd presume.

Because the Legion has a bunch of goddamn morons. They're led by a moron with a higher IQ because he was smart enough to trick the idiots back when they were just random tribes in the Wastes.

I've got the feeling Caesar's protégé is someone who's either like him, or someone who we could be sure allows us to annex the Legion by forcing him to give it up.

Seeing as you are now talking about their mobile pacification force now, two of those things are expected. One of them makes sense for their tech level and the last one is just a result of tribals.

>The only reason that they've lasted so long is on luck
Then why have they held and advanced to within 100 miles away from the NCR capital for 3 years? Luck? Really?

>slaves
And? Nothing wrong with slavery and theirs is a strangely beautiful and effective system.

>the fact that the NCR was a bloated from corruption to do next to nothing. What with having people like Moore and Oliver there dealing with them, I'm surprised the NCR held out as long as it did.
The NCR held out as long as it did because Ceaser underestimated them and they were lucky. Not to mention them having guns in every soldiers hand.

>I'd rather see Caesar get executed personally by Joshua.
If we are going to kill him, sure.

>The only parts of the Legion that can honestly be saved are the slaves
That is a horrible position.

>Because the Legion has a bunch of goddamn morons. They're led by a moron with a higher IQ because he was smart enough to trick the idiots back when they were just random tribes in the Wastes.
That is a strange position, it is more so because of a technophobic position than any lack of intelligence on their part.


>>1645877

>>1645884
>You know, even I have to say, though I've come to love my music. . .I wonder if people might like something new as well.
Funny you say that we have acquired an orchestra from a group allied to us and the old world singer: Dean domino. If you want to make new stuff just ask and they can be brought in to help.

"Not to worry there, when we take back Vegas. You'll be back home doing what you do best."

>>1645889

>A stable civilization

It's all based on Caesar really

>Then why have they held and advanced to within 100 miles away from the NCR capital for 3 years? Luck? Really?

We've kept to ourselves, and when we did make ourselves known to the NCR we played smart and made sure not to piss them off

>And? Nothing wrong with slavery and theirs is a strangely beautiful and effective system.

Tell that to the people actually enslaved to them

>That is a horrible position

It's the ONLY position. The rest are a bunch of blind fanatics dedicated to a narcissist who's dying of a brain tumor. Besides, who are those guys Caesar has to help him?

Vulpes? You've seen what that fucker did to Nipton, while I hardly feel sympathy for the Powder Gangers. He was brutal in how it went. Plus, you know, bribed the Omertas to chlorine bomb the Strip.

Lanius? While he may be more intelligent than a lot of Caesar's soldiers, he's a vicious asshole who believes in a Darwinian take of training troops.

>That is a strange position, it is more so because of a technophobic position than any lack of intelligence on their part.

Technophobia is a sign of a lack of intelligence. While I wouldn't say they're all morons, they're just obsessed with it to the point of idiocy.

>>1645914
Well it seems Ceaser found his Augustus, who is a nice combo of lanius, joshua and vulpes, so the legion might have more survivability now, even after ceasars death.

>>1645917

Then we better handle him first. And as for Caesar, we better find ourselves a Brutus and a Cassius

>>1645914
>Tell that to the people actually enslaved to them
Could always talk to them. You even have one.

>>1645926
What's he been doing? Just laying back, enjoying the good life? Passively absorbing the national ideals?

>>1645929
Cooking. Cleaning. Caring for your child. Repairing your robots. Learning. Worshiping his Gods. He's a lot like Raul, only with a lot less lip.

>>1645914
>It's all based on Caesar really
In the game, yes. In quest? I don't know the way that everything is, I feel that even with his death it wouldn't fall back into tribes. At worst it would be kingdoms like when China shatters in history.

>We've kept to ourselves, and when we did make ourselves known to the NCR we played smart and made sure not to piss them off
I think you misunderstood what I meant.

I am asking, if their advances and growth have been purely because of luck. Then how have they, in a straight slugging match, managed to hold and gain ground in such a way as to be within 100 miles of the NCR capital and still seemingly be coming? After 3 years of constant fighting, not just here but everywhere? Against the ever more industrialised NCR?

>Tell that to the people actually enslaved to them
From the slave we have they don't conceive of themselves as ever being anything but a slave which seemingly he was fine with.

>Besides, who are those guys Caesar has to help him?
People trained or otherwise well fitted for their roles.

>Vulpes? You've seen what that fucker did to Nipton, while I hardly feel sympathy for the Powder Gangers. He was brutal in how it went.
And? His brutality ensures no resistance. Also in quest the powder gangers joined the Legion so I don't know what you are talking about.

>Plus, you know, bribed the Omertas to chlorine bomb the Strip.
Actually that was their own action, they didn't communicate with the Legion.

>Lanius? While he may be more intelligent than a lot of Caesar's soldiers, he's a vicious asshole who believes in a Darwinian take of training troops.
That is the standard position of the legion and works frankly, assuming you don't mind the loss of life which they don't.

>Technophobia is a sign of a lack of intelligence.
Then by that logic the Amish are lacking in intelligence.

>While I wouldn't say they're all morons
You literally did though, in your previous post.

>they're just obsessed with it to the point of idiocy.
Not really, I mean in the fallout universe technology has screwed humanity over. Also they aren't obsessed with it, most of them couldn't give two fucks but they are aware that the world ended because of tech and thus don't want much to do with it in their lives.


>>1645929

>>1645934
Dont blame the gun, blane the gunman.

Technology was used to screw the world, but it didnt screw it. The people who couldnt coexist or share or care for each other screwed the world

Guys who we grab mr. House?

>>1645945
We cant. Hes in an air tight pod that he cant leave or he dies of infections. Hes on constant life support, and hed probably have a coronary if he looked outside.

>>1645940
>Dont blame the gun, blane the gunman.
Your metaphor is flawed. The technological societies had to use their nuclear weapons to defend their remaining resources and sovereignty against the other nations.

The alternative had already played out in Europe after their war with the middle eastern states. Nations fell, armies turned, millions starved and order collapsed.

This isn't us talking about a gunman. This is us talking about making the decision between a quick death with a chance of life or a slow death with no return.

These people, in their lifestyles, shall never encounter such a problem.

>Technology was used to screw the world, but it didnt screw it. The people who couldnt coexist or share or care for each other screwed the world
They couldn't coexist because of radically different views and ideals.

Now why does that sound familiar? The US and China, now the NCR and the Legion. There are always two.

>>1645926

That's true really

>>1645933

Oh gee I wonder why that is?

>>1645934

>Then by that logic the Amish are lacking in intelligence.

It's not exactly what I'm saying, what I mean to say is that when you're in a situation where the world has gone to shit and tech like medicines and the like can be used to help yourself and those you care about. But don't based on a belief that technology that "Well technology destroyed the world, that shit's evil." then you're an idiot.

You bring back a Securitron Base-Box, the brains of one. You don't need to bring all this heavy Radio equipment, just enough to store Mr. House in his most diluted form and take some of the music holotapes with you. Like Victor or Yes Man would have done.

As you return home, you want to figure out that secondary AI, as a co-anchor. The female one you were considering.

You think about Unity. She has that sweet bubbly voice of youth, yet also displays motherly attitude. She can be funny, kind, and sweet and very often mysterious.

Then Cass, the firebrand, somewhat sarcastic but fierce hearted woman who earns many things from other men. Respect, fear, and for more than a few, unreciprocated affection.

Well I've gotten the TACT bot / brain unit designed and thus we can now perform long range offensive military operations.

Centipede, eh? Would be very reliable...but it would probably be energy intensive...we can see about it.

>>1645982

Yeah, each segment could be able to have a different weapon on it for more versatility. Another idea for a weapon I have is more of something that's unorthodox in how it'd be, I have a general idea but I can't seem to hammer out the details

>>1645992
Seems a bit excessive to be honest. Could probably stick with something simpler, like tiberium sun devil tongues, fir subterranian attacks

Next, you and your Anti-NCR Agenda. I was getting ready to leave you there on the spot. But I saw what you did to those slaves, free'd them, gave them something worth fighting for, did more than the troopers would have done for sure. NCR is my country, and I've got words for you if you intend to actually 'wage a war' against them.

And then staying in one place for three years, I don't reckon how I didn't leave from the sound of it. Especially cooped up in that house. Guess it was the good company and the drink. But I hated soft living, almost as much as living in the same place.

But you know what has kept me here? Its the one thing you always had the NCR didn't. Compass. You free slaves but don't take em, didn't even sell any women to that alien freak. I'm on the fence about that boy you bought, but I heard you were trying to rehabilitate him to freedom. You're trying to bring something good to the people here.

Then the rumors about the NCR straightening up. Let me tell you something, when those people started a going, I was in my mind to leave and see the NCR for myself.

But now, seeing what they did, what they do to tribals? All this yap to "savages" saying join or die? I can't sit right with that. I'm not even sure if it's my country anymore.

So in between the Legion, who I'd sooner felate a cazador's stinger than join, and whatever monster the NCR is becoming I guess I really only have you as the alternative."

Slaves which are fully broken often don't have them, after all it'd be a bad idea to have a slave end up blowing up your home. Even if they didn't hurt anyone with some precisely small explosives, what a waste and a mess.

In legion lands, it is enough to simply have them visibly on the person to mark you out in society.

>Setup our bigbrother AI. Qm said we only had a general action left.

You're scratching your head as you work overtime. Because you just convinced Mr. New Vegas you can put your entire research team on the Big Brother AI.

Everything is practically in place. You have the Super Computer. You have the personality basis. You even have some pictures based on Yules himself.

But it's missing something, some ' je ne sais quoi' according to the Brain. Whatever that means.

You struggle thinking about how to make this fit according to your vision, but you forget what your vision is. You spend a few nights toming over books of BigMT on espionage and counter espionage. On spies and anti-spies. On surveilance and monitoring.

But its an unlikely source of inspiration that strikes you like a lightning bolt. One of the Old World spy novels from the NCR.

It hits you exactly how you should model your AI.

Everything is ready, just to turn it on.

You feel a rush of energy, as if the spirit of your long lost tribe calls to you, compelling you to name as they would have named a spy: James Bond.

The name means nothing seemingly, but everything at the same time.

>James Bond
"Understood Mr. Executor. I am sworn ever to your service, in peace and at war."

Congratulations, you have a new Companion! James Bond is a highly specialized Intelligence and Counter Intelligence AI.

>>1646260
We need to get him an upgrade package named Golden Gun at some point.

>>1646260
Sweet. We should get it its own humanoid robot body.

>>1646263
See since we are giving the securitrons a paint job with golden highlights. He has golden guns already.

However I do think that we can improve him further. Possibly the application of specialised spy and police bots?

>>1646269
I had suggested police bots. Humanoid, light, with non lethal package. Would be much cheaper than securitons and would free up our military bots.

>>1646269
First we shoukd set up the rest if the alexa functionalities- like speakers in peoples homes so he can repond to them.

And get people radios so they can listen ti the inaugural radio broadcast

>>1646281
This. We need to finish it 100% before we move on to the next project.

>>1646295
We shoukd set up the radio station so it starts broadcasting on founding day.

>>1646276
I suggested something similar. I'd point out we don't even need "beat" bots thanks to the observation system for the most part.

>>1646281
The rest of the functions will be easier to do now we have the AI working. It's just a matter of adding onto the code and shit now. Maybe a little bit of construction work.

>>1646260
I feel the tribe tribe, would have just named a spy spy

>>1646307
Actually if we build speakers into all the houses, then people would have surround sound in every room. We wouldnt have to give them radios or house phones- the house would be loaded with microphones and speakers.

For those of you who want to color your own securitron , this is the original I used.

I think now is a good time to mention, once we have finished with the Observation system / Alexa functions. I want to get round to updating our securitrons with the new legs and upgrading them all to the Hazard designation.

>>1646380
Agree but I think we lack resources for that.

>>1646380
Leave the securitrins to police towns. We should start buikding some of the dedicated warbots, like riddick's dreadbot. Building dedicated scavenger bots woukd also be more efficient

>>1646384
We'll know once we finish the railroad to Trona (I think that still needs to be finished) and building our solar power. Once we know what we have left to work with we can decide.

>>1646387
>Leave the securitrins to police towns.
You want to leave the heavily armoured, grenade, rocket, laser and machine-gun armed robots to act as police? Rather than just making some eye-bots with tasers or something?

>We should start building some of the dedicated war-bots, like riddick's dread-bot.
Look, I think we should get rid of the TV screens (possibly re-purpose them as actual TV's or something for people's houses?) and then just use the Securitrons. Especially since most of the warbot designs are very expensive to produce or situational and many of them are dead-ends which we can't modify easily.

>Building dedicated scavenger bots would also be more efficient
Except the region we are scavenging in is filled with Marked men, death-claws and tunnellers. So it is best if everything can fight.

We can make dedicated scavengers later but these work best for now.

With Founding Day looming, everyone works extra hard to prepare for this years celebration. Its been some tough times going, so giving the people something to cheer about would be good for morale.

As such, Jacob Miles pushes himself even harder, striving to meet deadline and early, pushing every man and machine at his disposal. And just at the very last night before founding day, delivers.

Your new Solar Tower is built, increasing your power and truly is a monument worth to be proud of. Tomorrow, when the celebrations are ready, you will light up the sky with the fires of solar light!

>>1646450
What power!

>>1646426
Rail road is finished. Just need a train. Solar plant should be finished now.

I guess overhauling the securitrons are okay if we do as much as you said. But i thibk we shiuld send a shipment of powerloaders to the NCR to have enough of a stockpile of metal to work with.

Also we should really see the commies and try and strengthen the bonds between our people. Maybe we can convince them our brand of almost-communism is better / good enough.


Speaking of communism, I remember something from my studies of communism in the USSR and shit. One man that I remembered and we could make use of was a soviet miner:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexey_Stakhanov

As his efforts resulted in a popular movement among the workers and government:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stakhanovite_movement

There were awards given to citizens / workers with "exceptional productivity" and competitions held over 5 to 30 day periods to establish who these people were. According to the soviet statistics, these efforts resulted in decent increases in productivity and I feel we could achieve such things with our people.

The wiki has more information and further things it did but the main point is we could probably make large gains in our productivity with small incentives. Things like doubled alcohol rations for the best worker / top 10% would easily incite people to work harder, even outside of this system's existence / publication.

All we'd need do is create leader-boards if such a system as described seems hard to do. As no one ever wants to be at the bottom of those and thus will work harder. However we would need to work out ways of defining productivity precisely for such a leader-board. Hours of labour might work but that doesn't raise productivity per hour...

Your civilians are in for a real treat this year, especially as all of them wake up to a very familiar, but entirely unexpected voice coming from the loudspeakers and radios.

>Mr. Vegas
"Goooood morning New Washington. This is Mr. New Vegas, and in case your wondering, yes you are awake to a beautiful morning dawn. I'm your radio host, Mr. New Vegas, running the Mr New Vegas show under new management and venue. And now to introduce my cohost, the lovely, Ms. New Washington.

And how are we feeling today?"

>Ms. New Washington
"Feelin' like a brand new woman. Howdy folks, this is Ms New Washington and you better be listening in cause we got a special program lined up for everyone today. Ain't that right?"

>Mr. Vegas
"You know it. Today's programming will include a live coverage of this years Founding Day parade and the activation of New Washington's very own Solar Collection tower. In addition, Executor Courier has announced the promotion of one Captain Judah Kreger, to General of the Army of the Phoenix Enclave."

>Ms. New Washington
"And who can forget the fireworks and best of all, the refreshments later today right after the ceremonies. Come out on out and celebrate!"

Even before the parade, everyone is chattering excitedly. To think, Mr. New Vegas, on our very own radio show!

>>1646450
This time we should use fireworks.

>>1646497
>Tfw actually giddy from this.

Can we boardcast out to the NCR and Legion held lands?

They thought he was gone, instead he rises from the ashes of Vegas. Reborn anew under the flag and wing of the venerable Phoenix.

Qm, question for Marcus.

When considering hone sfor supermutants, would he rather have hos own city distrcit just for the supermutants (may come across as segregation) or would he rather have homes built interchangeably with the common citizens?

With better experience from last years parade, the band from Baker (or as some say "The Band from Hell") set up Having seen enough of them, they become less an outright call for a riot and now mostly a morbid curiosity. A few from last year, brave enough to converse with them, are seen speaking to them again but in general everyone prefers not to stare directly.

Crowds line up on the main road that runs through New Washington and the concrete houses. Not as many as last years, but it sort of pleases you to see that no offers of wealth or reward could make these people leave, and they are yours.

At high noon midday, the clouds just enough to cast some shade, you stand on the balcony of your Presidential Palace one Judah Kreger. Now dressed in an American Generals uniform and hat, as you prepare to swear him in.

He places his hand over his heart, and the other in the air, as he recites word for word, his acceptance to the office bestowed upon him by his country, the Commonwealth of America, born anew, and by its leader. Its a carefully crafted oath that is intentionally similar if not outright identical to the one the Enclave makes its soldiers say. Kreger does not abandon America and the United States, but embraces his new role in its rebuilding and reconstruction.

And as he finishes his oath, the Solar tower is activated, and the crowd is basked in a bright white flash like an atom bomb.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AEj-otqMLE

And Dean Domino erupts the band with a furious marching song, as from the tunnel entrance to big MT, your newly painted Robotic forces and human army march onward.

The eyes of your citizens feast upon the sights before them. Painted brand new in patriotic colors, the insignia of the Commonwealth upon them, and behind them march the soldiers. Their husbands, their brothers, their sons, their friends.

Bodies taller and stronger, some of the built like brick shithouses, as they march with pride saluting their beloved General and yourself, a fierce fire of pride burning in all their eyes.

And Kreger, slowly and calmly, salutes them back. Proud to call them his army.

>>1646569
God damn, imagine what the parade will be like in a years time.

>>1646569
Were sending the radio signal as far as it can go, right? I want the settlers at barstown to hear what we have going on

>>1646595
Knowing the NCR they probably have a plane watching right now.


Speaking of which, what are the current feelings / thoughts of the anons to the merc-bot deal? We could use the scrap metal and combat experience against the Legion. Plus it would let us examine the NCR military up close.

>>1646609
Against it, The NCR/Legion war is on them. I don't want to accelerate or decelerate it.

>>1646609
I accept it along with sending our doctors. We can build mobile hospital in meantime and send it later.


What if any other trade deals do we have in effect?

>>1646609
Speaking about the NCR

We should set up AA guns, either man controlled or robot AA guns. To take down the bomber planes in the future.

Also we should make anti tank mines for the future as well, to blow some tanks or at least slow them down.

I don't want war with the NCR, but it's best to prepare

>>1646609
Im fine using it as a testing ground for our robots and millitaty, but i continue to think the brain bot is a bad idea.

Sending in doctors is a good idea, and eill get them plenty of field practice.

>>1646621
Robot AA and self propelled mines-like vulture mines from starcraft.

Also we get to use the free research action for them

>>1646627
We should look into having EMP resistant robots, that way our robot robot is harder to take out.

>>1646632
If we want good AA we should build Obelisks of Darkness. Giant laser just zaps planes out of the sky. No countermeasures no leading the target, just zap.

>>1646615
To be honest if I could I would help the Legion get a little closer to the NCR's capital or even take it. Just to turn the heat up on the NCR and get us more scrap in return for our support.

Not to mention the effect it would have on their morale / government organisation and shit. However I feel it is safer to help the NCR and get our steel while limiting the actual damage we do to the Legion than try and do something that could backfire unless we know precisely how the fighting is going which is why I want to get down into the trenches and find out shit like how the manpower reserves of both sides are.

>>1646617
Spices for shit if I remember rightly and the lifter suits.

>>1646621
Robot AA would be best since it could directly link into any radar we have and work together to bring down planes. Plus it would work as effectively day or night, no matter how long it has been working.

As to war with the NCR? I don't want it yet either but I see it as an somewhat inevitable occurrence if we don't get much stronger and even then, we might want such a war depending on how things go.

>>1646623
The brain bot is just a way of having more advanced control of the bots which I think could give us the edge over the Legion and impress the NCR troops / brass into giving more for our continued support.

Consider we could equip it with our current general's brain and have him go too, to talk with the NCR / appear in any news reels and shit as the face of our military and nation.

Maybe send our actual troops in too and get them some actual combat but we would need to see if the NCR wanted them and we would need to supply food / ammo and such unless the NCR agreed to do so.

>>1646627
You mean widow mines? Seems possible: a burrowing robot with some sort of detection system that launches a regenerating guided missile.

>>1646632
Robots should already be fairly EMP resistant since they have an all metal shell and they are fairly small in size. Since they therefore experience less effect from a EMP and are protected by a Faraday cage from the rest.

>>1646649
Giant laser cannons? Sounds possible, especially with our disintegrator tech and shit.

>>1646659
Yeah widow mines. Thats what i meant.

As for laser AA, theyre planes. They dont need that much firepower to take out. Its mainly a question of hitting them. So the laser beams can be quite a bit smaller than anti tank lasers

>>1646665
>Yeah widow mines. Thats what i meant.
Yeah those things are terrifying. Like bouncing betty's with brains...

>As for laser AA, theyre planes. They dont need that much firepower to take out. Its mainly a question of hitting them. So the laser beams can be quite a bit smaller than anti tank lasers
True. In fact we might be better off making them smaller and faster firing so they could attempt to intercept any explosives / bombs they drop by heating them until the explosives either detonate or decompose or the detonation mechanism melts.

However I would point out that a laser becomes less powerful as it travels. At such a rate that every time you double the distance you must quarter the lasers strength. So something that at ground level will melt steel with ease at 500 meters, will struggle to damage a craft at 2000 meters which is far from the highest most planes can go. Luckily this energy isn't lost, just spread over a large area which renders the target easier hit.
