Ok so lets think about this. Lets say the surviving Enclave pass through Nevada encountering it. Mr House re-awake a few years before Fallout 2 which is 2138 when he woke up again. Mr House sends his Securitrons to talk to the Enclave. Enclave finds out he was former RobCo CEO, the Enclave support him ad who knows, Enclave are powerful under a smart man. :biggrin:

Unless the Enclave were willing to pay alot of money for Mr.House's products and services then it woudn't happen.

The Enclave also had their own really smart scientists and researchers, with labs. They made advanced power armour. So I don't think they would not be willing to deal with House. They would just walk in and take everything from him.

I doubt House would have anything at all to do with the Enclave, and on the other side of the fence the Enclave would probably just mow down Houses defences and take whatever they wanted from him.

If you are referring to the possibility of Mr. House becoming leader of the Enclave, that would certainly not happen. Especially with the Fallout 2 Enclave as Richardson was their leader. Mr. House simply has no interest in rebuilding the United States as a state to its pre-war condition, which is the Enclave's ultimate goal. So, in other words, House's ideology of "I am the ruler of this new better world" fundamentally clashes with the Enclave's, which is "Rebuild America as it once was".

Mr. House would undoubtedly have been a member of the "Enclave" at some point, which was (I would argue) in the pre-war years a loose alliance of certain higher members of the U.S. Government, corporate leaders, and the military industrial complex. House was the CEO of ROBCO, which owned REPCONN (and REPCONN helped to develop plasma-based weaponry for the Enclave). ROBCO also had military contracts as well (thus the large numbers of American Army Robots) and probably helped to furnish various turrets and other forms of robotic weaponry for the pre-war Enclave.

Now, on to the question of post-war. What would a meeting of the Enclave and Mr. House look like?

First and foremost, I doubt the Enclave would simply attack House or anything like that. I'm sure that most of the Enclave leadership (and possibly many of the soldiers if they've been schooled in pre-war history) would know his name and recognize his connection to the glorious "pre-war past". They would, likely, be a bit hesitant to deal with him simply because he has survived long past his natural lifespan, which may lead the Enclave to conclude he has mutated in some way. If however Mr. House can provide them with some sort of service, then the Enclave would probably readily deal with him. Otherwise they may simply ignore his robotic emissaries.

Mr. House, being the pragmatist he is, would likely strike a deal with the Enclave if he can benefit from it in some way and if he can provide them something in return. Now assuming we are talking about Richardson's Enclave, would Mr. House go along with "the Project?" Highly doubtful, as that path would undoubtedly deprive House of the control he wishes to exert on a rebuilt world. The most he would do is likely strike some sort of weapons deal.

However, if we are looking at a alternate Universe where the Enclave has released the FEV-Curling 13 and wiped the world clean, House would do everything he could in regards to self-preservation.

no clue, i doubt the Enclave would attack him...but they would request that he share some of his tech "like project purity" and House couldnt do a thing about it even with his upgraded robots. Maybe house will become a unwilling member of if the enclave and secretly plotting against the enclave the entire time

im not sure what would happen but im guessing whatever does happen Mr.House wouldnt get his way...

Well it's a simple question with an important asterix, what reason is there for the two to collide? The Enclave don't occupy areas without reason and the Strip probably wouldn't be on their target list - even if Autumn was in-charge the Strip doesn't make people dependant on the Enclave, the Dam though - and they wouldn't be aware of House's Robot stach under the Fort. I see no reason why the two would ever come into contact, negotiably anyway; I doubt that the Enclave would really allow the casinos to still exist whether led by a Richardson or an Autumn.

Really, at it's most simple, House has nothing to offer the Enclave, which means that there's no need for some kind of truce ala House-NCR, that and House wouldn't support the Enclave ideals, ipso facto, the two would definately not get along.

I agree.

Thankfully they did not run into eachother at all, due to the Enclave heading east from northern California and not passing through the Las Vegas area.

I did write an "alternative fallout universe" where the Vault Dweller failed that ran the timeline up to New Vegas;

The whole timeline is here:
http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Agent_c/Fallout,_If_the_Vault_Dweller_Died.

But I'll just copt the New Vegas/House bit:




Although I don't think house would have been a member of the enclave (as he seems to be the type to go off and do his own thing); I believe its almost certain he would have been aware of its existence - he's a smart cookie and would have figured out where all those doodads he's supplying are really going

House is after all undoubtedly an American Citizen. He's not openly gone against the USA like the brotherhood and doesn't seem to have built anything resembling a state so it would be hard to argue that he should be stripped of it (he's just protected his assets). Most importantly he has something to offer the enclave - he's an undeniable engineering genius and he represents everything the enclave want to recreate - he's the empitomy of the American Dream.

Wow... when you put it that way, the Enclave were right in their plans. And they could even be considered the good guys if there really only were super mutants left in California when they released the virus.

Awesome alternative timeline :thumbsup:

Thanks. I must get around to another edit/update for the DLCs (although to be honest with none of the actors around I don't think theres much point in adding the DLCs to it). Maybe turn it into a fan fic or something.
