So you are only going to include the Chicago areas?
Why not the rest of it? Bethesda has called the "High-Level Events" are Canon.
The problem I would run into is that, while the 5 easternmost "future settlements" on that map are near water sources that I can pinpoint on a map, the rest of the settlements are in a big featureless blob. I could attempt to make educated guesses, but I could only really be sure I had gotten the 5 easternmost settlements correct. If I ever try to make a map of the Western U.S. (Likely after all of the DLCs for New Vegas have been released), I'll take a crack at incorporating the areas further west of those 5 settlements, but for now I'd rather avoid that headache.
People starting to show Tactics some respect on NMA?
I don't know, I don't lurk on NMA very much, for obvious reasons (i.e. as a Bethesda fan my head would explode
).
Edit:I looked more for some higher quality videos and I think I can make do with http://i51.tinypic.com/20qhv1u.jpg. Thanks anyway Styles.
