*Kruser raises an eyebrow at the Power Armored fool, who did he think he was?

"Listen my friend, you think you can come from a hole in the ground, barge in here and think you make the rules? I think not."

*Kruser crossed his arms.

Raynor looks at James and laughs.
''Now James, i do see NCR′s interest in taking Vegas, but that isnt gonna happen and you know that, so why are you even trying to establish bases here? Not that i disagree with it, cause if someone would supply you then im sure you would come to me right.''

She looked at James Cabrone from the NCR. "Of course we will supply Nipton with produce as well, James. Speaking of trade, I would love to trade water for food with Goodsprings, however there is still the transportation issue. Could we make a deal with one of the Caravan companies, perhaps?" Alice wondered out loud.

Riddle me this NCR dog, why shoul the NCR hold cottonwood and not the Legion? The Mojave has many enemies including the NCR, and are yousure your pathetic garrison of troops could hold against tthe power of the east? As soon as weretake the fort cottonwood shall become top priority

Senior Paladin Garret Hartley - Brotherhood of Steel
The paladin turns his power helmet toward the individual attempting to speak with him. "Elder McNamara has instructed our members to be on the lookout for any technology deemed unfit for civilians. If your caravans pass our territory we will seize any technology deemed unfit to be kept in civilian care! We also demand that the Van Graff's surrender all their energy weapons to us!

Senior Paladin Garret Hartley - Brotherhood of Steel

"My conversation with Mr. Raynor does not include you Legion mongrel. As if anyone cares what a bunch of skirt wearing, bald head worshiping, backwards, unintelligent, sixist, slave owners has to say!"

OOC: Oh boy it's fun starting up trouble!

James Carbone - NCR



The NCR is no-longer Interested in Vegas itself, well for no atleast but we still have interest in the south of mojave and they need protecting espically if the Brotherhood or Legion decide to attack.




You're have to talk to a caravan company about that sorry.



well we Did hold Hoover Dam for four years and killed atleast 8000 legionaires during that time



Your Brothers back west decided to stop attacking NCR or GR Caravans and they haven't been doing better!, we recommend you follow them unless want a War with the Mojave groups. Since you are no currently affecting the NCR we will not get involved but should GR get attacked by you we will.

although I do agree with you about the legion! * James then starts to laugh*

*Kruser finds this ignorant savage funny

"Hehe, you call me unintelligent when you start with the name calling? Well insult the Legion if we must, atleast we haven't been driven underground".

Senior Paladin Garret Hartley - Brotherhood of Steel

"At least we weren't sent running away from the Mojave with our tails between our legs after another beating at Hoover Dam!"

"Enjoy seeing the values of your order crumble as you see all the Securitrons defending vegas?"

OOC: We should also establish who will be continuing the next convention due to Gingy not being able to continue.

OOC: He's leaving. What happened?

OOC: I could do it but I'd rather not be the moderator between the many groups.

OOC: I would also be willing to do it but maybe we should make a seperate thread after this to decide who shall continue these?

OOC: Good idea.

We should also make a seperate thread to decide who will make the thread to see who will make the Convention thread.

Senior Paladin Garret Hartley - Brotherhood of Steel

Garret snorts derisively. "Well since you brought it up it could have been the Enclave, Van Graffs, or a well armed band of mercs! You have no way to prove that it was the Brotherhood who attacked caravans. Plus from what I've heard your organization deals exclusively in firearms not energy weapons."

James Carbone - NCR

OOC: Thanks

Ulysses

"There's a promontory to the north of Cottonwood Cove, on the east side of the river, that has always been a nest of deathclaws. Stay away from it... worse than Quarry Junction ever was. To the South along the river, there is a cove full of Lakelurks. Other than that, Fire Geckos live along the shore, in the caves, anywhere they can go without being killed... so watch out for them."

OOC: Done for the night; goodnight everyone.

Johnny Gozallo-Goodsprings Rep

"Well, the support we're recieving seems very promising, thanks, but since the Khans and NCR Rangers will be helping out, try not to get at each other's throats. Oh, yes, after the Cazadores are gone, who will be occupying Red Rock Canyon?"

OOC: Out for a few hours

Sammy Rallo, Chairmen Rep.

"Very good, Novac and the Chairmen together. The Chairmen are willing to give 40% of the caps you need for the protection of Nelson, and we'll give you a low interest loan for the remaining 60%."

*Sammy turned to the Khan*

"That's fine, we don't need larger orders for now. But yes, those gems are quite something, how much are they?"

"The Legion with having the Fort would also require cottonwood cove for proper transport to the fort".

"The Legion and NCR although we wish it wasn't so still hold grudges against each other, the Frumentarii will not work aside the Rangers as to avoid injuries from either side".

"And may I remind you that now that we have controlled the Chaos in Arizona we have established a new 'Caesar' and a new Legate, you knew the legate as Azmond."

*Kruser smirks

OOC: Sorry - I actually picked up a real book last night and didn't go on the PC LOL

Alice Swift - FoA Rep

Alice nodded, while listening to the ongoing conversation. However, at this point, she couldn't help herself but had to inject:

"I know what you are trying to do and trust me, it is a noble cause. The Followers also want nothing more than all factions working together for the greater good of the Mojave. There are still a lot of people who suffer greatly. Who do not have access to fresh food and clean water. People who have known struggle all their lives. It is time that we, who are in a position to help others, finally do something."

She took a breath and with a side-long glance at Kruser, she continued. "However, when I tried to reach out to the Legion, try to involve them in the re-building effort, I learned my lesson. The Legion is still only interested in the Legion. Judging by some of the comments Kruser made, the Legion will never tolerate anyone else and will only strike deals if it profits the Legion. I wouldn't be surprised if their goals are still the same, absorbing any tribes that remain in Arizona and the surrounding area, to become strong again and then what? Challenge us all? Take over the Mojave?" Alice closed her eyes for a moment and inhaled deeply. For some reason, talk of or with the Legion always upset her.

She tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear and looked calmly around the room. "I'm sorry for my outburst. All I'm saying is, keep your eyes open. Blind trust is never advisable."

"I think I speak for Mr. Kent, when I say that we could probably show you some farming secrets," Alice said with a wink. "Also, I am trying to understand what you are going to do with your lawbreakers. Are you going to pamper your death row inmates? Are you going to show mercy and release them back into society, so they can kill again? I'm not saying that slavery is the answer, oh no, not in the least, but I'm also a bit surprised to see you worried about the welfare of CRIMINALS," Alice said with raised eyebrows.

"Also, the Followers are already looking to convert Camp Golf into a Psychiatric Hospital, as I've mentioned before. I think it's more suitable for recuperation and rest for the ill, than to house prisoners, especially since it was a seaside resort at one point," she added.

"May I remind you that the Freeside and Westside Co-Op already produces enough food for that area? The Kings are certainly not suffering from a food shortage," Alice reminded the Mayor of Novac.

*Kruser shook his head at Alice

"The Legionaries fear him, as they did with Lanius, they understand that under his command failure is never an option".

"Cottonwood was Legion territory before the second battle of Hoover dam and I see no reason for any other faction to need or want an area so near the Legion you despise so much".

James Carbone - NCR

Searchlight was our city before the radiation, our dead still litter the town I respecfully reqeust we keep the town, once cleared I plan on having an memorial for the 200+ people who died from it. The airport will become the NCR army base for southern mojave opertations, if will be espically helpful if the legion decides to try something....

As from the planes my last report states there was three planes at the airport, Two in good condition whlist another had crashed into the run way. it was going to be one plane each and third was stirpped was parts.

a fourth plane is located nearby having crashed in desert during the Great war, the Boomers are welcome to it but it's most likey only useable for parts.

Another reason why NCR should keep Searchlight. we can have troops and perhaps even a Vetibird covering Cottonwood cove and the river from legion attack. Command might even get some artillery set up at searchlight.

The Courier-New Vegas

OOC: Sorry guys, I'm going to have to step down to White Glove Society.

I can't keep up with this thread, as too much is going on IRL for me to post often enough to hold up a large role.

Someone else, such as Sebor or Lobo, who can make time for it , can keep elongating this conventions.

When I get more time, (probably the Summer), I'll start posting some more House/NCR victory conventions.

Someone else can take the Courier's slot, or just remove the role completely. It's up to you guys.

(If someone else takes it, give it to someone who has experience with these conventions.)

'Twas fun guys!

James Turner - The Kings

"Our girl Swift has a point, the Westside CoOp is gonna keep the Kings fed for a good while. Now caps, caps would be grand. Now I'd hate to put a monetary value on human life, but I'd say 1000 caps per King is fair. Unless Ms. Swift's got a better idea."

Imam the 2nd-The Khans

"Well the Khans will have to maintain a small force of thirty men to run the stills necessary for our Alcohol agreement with the Chairmen and Primm. Beyond that I could care less who occupies Red Rock Canyon so long as they do not interfere with us. As for our new embassy at Ranger Station Charlie I would like to offer 1,500 caps to whoever can construct a monument to the Khans and NCR who died at Bittersprings."

OOC: I will be gone for a few hours.

No.
If you want to fight armies of securitrons, the Boomers, my military, Primm's militia, the Kings, and the NCR over energy weapons go ahead and let your people die.

If you want to try and keep your people from dying off I recommend talking with some of us "unfit civilians" before we drive you to extinction.

OOC: I couldnt have put it better myself

Senior Paladin Garret Hartley - Brotherhood of Steel

"You forget that the Courier runs New Vegas and as a member of The Brotherhood of Steel he won't allow any harm to come to our order."

*Kruser sighs at the other's opinions

"You don't seem to understand, cottonwood cove is ours, you may think it is yours but If you want to waste time, resources and lives to capture it then go ahead."

"The full strength of the Arizona Legion shall crush whoever decides to claim cottonwood".
