Elder Lyons looked at General Lee Oliver, NCR. Riley and her Rangers were there, too; as were both Flak and Shrapnel. "General Oliver, we were upgrading radio communications when we tapped into your long distance frequency. Rest assured that the Capitol Wasteland detachment of the Brotherhood of Steel are not your enemies."

Riley spoke next. "General, I'm here to set up the New Vegas branch of Riley's Rangers, We are a merc crew, not a criminal organization." Flak and Shrapnel
spoke afterwords. "General, my partner and I helped out with this expedition. We are looking to set up a branch of our arms dealing firm here." General OLiver nodded approvingly.

Already, NCR and Brotherhood personnel were offloading crates of R91 assault rifles from one of eight Vertibirds that had made their way from the D.C. wasteland to New Vegas, One crate of said assault rifles would be send back on the monorail to California, where NCR armorers would use them as patterns to mass reproduce the R91 as the standard assault rifle for NCR forces,

THe eight vertibirds in question had been found at an abandoned Encvlave airfield. AFter the destruction of the Enclave in the D.C. wastelands, the Fission battery-powered Veritibirds had came into Brotherhood possession. Also, a case of PIP-Boy 3000s, which were all programmed with data about 'Civilian Vaults'. and ."Hector Bravo',

A scribe placed a holotape into a projector. 'We downloaded one of the PIPBOY 3000s into a holodisk. I will now show you the results". He turned on the
machine. Colonel Moore turned the lights off.

A tiny protectron squeaked, "Hi, I'm Skinny. Many of of you know about Vault-Tec, but there were civiliian-only vaults built, too. As you realize, we defeated Japan in October of 1942, with the Tokyo bay landings, THe Emperor ordered Japan's military not to resist and what began at Pearl Harbor was rapidly ended,"

However, to win the Japanese war, we ignored what Adolf Hitler was doing in Europe. Hitler himself openly declared neutrality towards America on December 8th, 1941. When in February of 1943, Hitler obliterated STAVKA(the Soviet High Command)with Fatman and Littleboy, two atomic bombs dropped on Stalins secret above ground complex in the forest outside of Stalingrad.

Under Nikita Khruschev, A provisional Soviet government was set up at Vladivostok. They helped Mao Zedong conquer Manchuria, in exchange for promises of both
resources and military aid in the event of enemy attack, The AK47 assault rifle, while invented by Mikhail Kalashnikov in Northern Manchuria, and it used by great
effect by the ChiComs against the Nationalists.

The Cold War involved the containments of Communist China, the Soviet Union, FAscist Italy and Nazi Germany. In 1950, Japan became America's 49th state,
The overseas stations for U.S. in the Cold War were Taiwan, Japan, GReat Britain, anf North AFrica. Our first major conflict was the Italo-Itanian War. from May of 1950 to to July of 1953. The U.S, sinply flew air support from carriers, to aid Iranian forces,. The indiscriminate usage of mass carpet napalm bombing of Italian forces. lead to fifteen million Italian battle deaths and the obliteratrion of all life on Sicily,

In July of 1953, Mussolini was exiled to Germany, where he died in exile in 1974, Hitler agreed not to attack American interests if German interests were not not attacked.Hitler ruled until his 1983 death, whereupon the German High Command ended Nazi expansionism. Bioth Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany fell to the peaceful revolutions off June , 2019, THe SS only homeland still exists however.until his death in 1983. Himmler got his SS-only homeland in Eastern Prussia, so Germany came under the control of the German High Command, German expansionism was checked until Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy fell in the bloodless November revolution of 2019,

The Soviet Union reoccupied its formers lands, however; and China threatened both Taiwan and Korea with war, CHairman Lao Zan
tried to invade to both in 2035. But Mech suits and Vertibirds proved superior to Chicom human wave attacks.. Taiwan nuked the Manchurian oil fields and China sued for an armistice. Chairman Cheng had Lao Zan shot and replaced him.

Cheng permitted capitalism, because it allowed CHina's military-industrial complex to modernize. China adoptied an upgraded NATO capacity. CHina now was truly a super power, WHen they invaded Alaska in 2052, it was very hatrd fighting for Americans. America had ignored mech suit development and so it rapidly became a reinforced infantry vs. Armor and Mech suits war.

AS early as 1946, civilian vaults had began contstruction; Vault-tec came much later. Much research civilian vaults, so the government ignored them, After the FEV wiped out feline life elsewhere, the only felines left on Earth are in the civilian Vaults.
It is believed the last observed above ground feline, Mr. Black Cat traded to a prosttute for sixual favors.

THe most important of these Vaults is Hector Bravo, Hector Bravo has transcribed all prewar knowledge to subliminal learning message holokits. You can learn anything inside of a month thing, simply by letting it play as you sleep in a room with it at night.
Holotapes can be reused indefinitely if returned to their plastic casings after each session.

Hector Bravo also has the Combat-A-Pets...." BZZZZT! THe tape faded the reappeared. "The location of Hector Bravo is as follows
it is in the stretch of desert after Helio's One."

Flak and Shrapnel got their first, they followed by a team of NCR rangers. They secured the entrance to Hector Bravo. Riley's Rangers and Lyons Pride ruthlessly exterminated the giant ants surrounding said facility. But that was that not the only danger present...

The NCR ranger had been wounded while fighting some Night stalkers. She had lost alot of blood,,, The pack of coyotes now
surrounded her, as she only had two bullets left... Ranger Lindsholm drew her combat knife and a her hatchet. "COME ON, LET'S PARTY!"

Mind slowing it down a little?
