Were there any The Enclave didnt have? Or did the Enclave take them all?

Who did they take them from?

I dunno. BLind Kid Hospitals?
Jk. I know that was mean

But Did they build them you think?

Before the War the vertibirds were in the prototype stage. The project wasn't finalized until after the War by the Enclave.

So they were built?
And If they were would that mean taht the Enclave would have the Blueprints floating aroundin one of there outposts?

You haven't played Fallout 2, have you?

^^^^^^^^

I was going to get the 3 pack of Brotherhood of Steel, Fallout 1, and Fallout 2, but Im using a Windows 98 while my computers getting fixed. Wasnt sure if it would work.

This is one of the main quests in Fallout 2:

They will work. Remember that Fallout was released in 1997, and Fallout 2 in 1998.

Hm..... You think they would have an extra copy....

It's mentioned in Fallout 2 that they had 4 but three were lost and you steal the fourth. :tops:

EDIT: I just noticed that one of the above posts has a link to the quest I was talking about.

I'm amazed that you could never give/sell or get the vertibird plans for either the NCR or Vault City.

I hope those plans came with a 'How to fly a helicopter for a dumb wastelander' manual.

"Hmm... I wonder what 'Self-Destruct' taste like. Fred?"

"Explosive flavor, im sure"

It would be neat to see Vertibirds in the hands of the BoS in New Vegas... they already have the models done.

Without Colonel Autumn's accent saying "vertibird" though, it just wouldn't be the same.

It would be cool. But in Fallout 2 Matt mentions that the BoS is running out of manpower. And they definitely need a southern guy to say vertibird.

If the BoS are in New Vegas, hopefully their story is their loss of power and division... and it would be neat to see one faction of the BoS with vertibirds, and the others wonder how they obtained such technology.

Wait, if they weren't finalized until the Enclave, then how come in Operation Anchorage they have working vertiberds?

Retroactive continuity. Bethesda changed it, possibly without even thinking about it. Assuming the Vertibird part of the sim is one of the accurate portions.

I did do a post somewhere speculating on Aircraft in the Fallout Universe... Who has them, what air technology is possible in a post apocolyptic environment easy (and this was built on by several other posters), but I'd be suprised if major powers such as the NCR didnt have some elementary aircraft (even if they are experimental one-offs or even a simple hot air baloon), but nothing in any major number or major strategic use.



Operation Anchorage is not a historicalically accurate recreation of the events in Alaska.

Their is a computer log of the staff of the company that ran the O:A simulation, complaing about inaccuracy implemented by the general chase (i think that was his name)

Yeah, prototypes were in development at the time the bombs fell... it would make sense that General Chase thought they were cool and forced them into the sim program.

I'm pretty sure that's us fixing Bethesda's mistakes though, I doubt that computer log was really in reference to that.

Bethesda may have known that they somehow made a mistake somewhere with O:A (it was their first DLC, after all) and may have included that second log as a sort of catch-all to ensure there were no long-term ramifications of their mistakes.
