>Balanced for use with FWE<
===============
Description:
===============
You come across a man in the Brass Lantern, Megaton. He looks like he is up to no good, so you decide to pry him for information. What results is a series of quests that will provide
the chance to obtain over 30 new weapons, over 5 new armors, and a shop that supplies unique and rare ammo.
===============
Details:
===============
1) Eight New Quests
2) over Thirty Weapons, including:
-AA12 (AUTO SHOTGUN)
-AK47
-AR10 (M16 VARIANT)
-AS-50 SNIPER
-AUG
-DESERT EAGLE (BLACK)
-FAMAS
-G36C
-GLOCK 18C (AUTOMATIC PISTOL)
-M14 (NO ATTACHMENTS)
-M249 SAW
-M72 LAW (MISSING SOME TEXTURES, BUT FULL FUNCTIONING)
-M82 BARRETT .50
-MG34

-M24
-SA80
-SIG552
-S&W M500 HANDCANNON
-STRIKER
-THE ASSASSINATOR (SPECIAL COLT .45)
-UMP .45
-USP .45
-XM1014
-UZI
3) Over Five New Armors, including
-Ghillie Suit
-Tactical Vest
-Reflex Armor
4) Ambushes, assassinations, and more...
This mod adds weapons and armor to the Wasteland and in new locations, and includes a long quest to locate some of them with seven additional quests with a story to get the rest. The weapons are balanced to be used with FWE, but FWE is not required. As the quests go on, the weapons become more difficult to obtain, yet generally become more powerful as you near the end.
This mod will take you across the wasteland and into DC, and should take many hours to complete. Similar to the Trail of Crumbs mod, it guides exploration to many key landmarks, and can be completed as an ongoing quest throughout the main quest and beyond. Most weapons are from 20th Century Weapons, and therefore most credit goes to them.
Note that many of the added weapons can be modified with scopes, silencers, and fire rates right out of your inventory!
BEGIN THE QUEST BY SPEAKING TO THE GORDON IN THE BRASS LANTERN!

Bugs/Issues:
===============
1) Due to my mediocre scripting skills, I did not force you to follow the quest line of discovering guns, so in your travels you very well may stumble upon a gun prematurely. You are free to pick it up, it will just then add the next sequential weapon objective.
However, do not pick up the AA12, or either of the two keys added by this mod (if you find the keys on accident, you are omniscient) until you have found all preceding weapons. It won't be the end of the world, but it would mean finding those guns manually, as the quest would progress.
2) Related to the above, a weapon you have already discovered may have its objective reactivated (aka find it again). All you have to do in this case is drop the weapon from your inventory and pick it back up.
3) I did my best to balance these weapons to FWE. However, you may disagree. Feel free to comment!
These bugs are relatively minor and may not be experienced at all.
And a fair warning..... SAVE OFTEN! Several parts of this mod will be very tough, even for high-level players. The weapons provided along the way should be a great help though...
