I like that they make it a tough decision deciding what SPECIAL attributes to take. I'm hoping that you can at least have turrets without the Local Leader perk.

According to the footage, turrets do not require the Local Leader perk. Laser turrets require a 1 in Science! as well as 2 units of power from a generator, and regular turrets require a 1 in Gun Nut but do not need any power.

Hey great job with all of these perk predictions they're really well thought out. I noticed one thing you might be wrong about though. During the E3 presentation while showing off the house building mechanics the player places down one of those bobble head stands and I noticed a couple things. The player had 3 bobble heads in his inventory; agility, charisma, and barter. Agility and charisma made sense but I was curious about what the barter bobble head would do (since it can't give you 10 barter skill points anymore because the barter skill is gone). Iv'e been reading all your predictions and I think your right about there being 13 primary skill perks and each of them having a bobble head since the stand had 20 spots to place bobble heads. So 13 skill perks and 7 for the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stats would fill it up. But since a barter bobble head is confirmed, then one of the 13 primary skill perks would have to be barter right? Let me know what you think. Great job so far.

A few of us saw the leaked, or were lucky enough to see the actual (not me), footage, and they show the names of every Charisma Perk and Barter is not one of them. I think the speculation is that Bobble heads will either confer a bonus on their own or just be for show, hopefully the former. All but the Wasteland ???? Charisma Perk is pretty much confirmed 100%.

I saw the leak but I could only make out a few of the perks so I guess i'll have to take the people who were there's word for it that it's correct. There will most likely be 20 bobble heads since that's how many fit in the stand and since 7 are for S.P.E.C.I.A.L. and 1 for barter then there's probably not gonna be 1 for each of the primary skill perks. So I guess the non S.P.E.C.I.A.L. bobble heads will have there own little bonuses we don't know about yet. I really doubt their just for show. That would be super lame.
