Th wasteland war OOC #1

Post » Thu May 03, 2012 11:39 am

The courier had done all he could to raise his empire in the Mojave, sadly he could not do enough and his hold over the Strip diminished from within. His top general who went by the alias of Ace, turned on him and rose in revolt against the Courier but the revolt was defeated in the first of many battles. The courier had lost over half his followers as they fled the strip and took refuge in Red Rock Caynon. The former inhabitants had been killed years before and the Canyon remained uninhabited, A perfect location for the Dark Hand to settle and raise their power. The courier would send men to assault the Canyon but they always failed...

10 Years on from the rebellion and the Courier drew his last breathe. The news rocked the Mojave, the most influential and tyrannical man had passed. Highly influential men within the organisation Seized the casino's for themselves and a split within the Strip empire had occurred. 4 new factions rose to power all vying for total control over the strip, however it remains to be seen if these men were willing to wage war in the strip itself, or would they use other means to take the strip, such as assassination and diplomacy? The Dark Hand meanwhile are keen to capitalise on this opportunity to move in and take the Strip by force, or at least add more territory to their empire, the ambition of their young leader burns strongly, some say he could bring peace to the land, other say that he will only plunge the land into further war. The NCR sit quietly, they still have most control over the Mojave, occupying everywhere bar Freeside, the Strip, The Fort and Red Rock Canyon. Yet their power is dwindling, many of their elite officers were killed off either at the battle of Hoover damn, or assassinated by the Couriers agents. They face a power struggle between the Chief NCR Rangers and the Generals of the NCR, a civil war could be on hand, but first they most look to defend their territory against the rising powers within the Strip and Red Rock Caynon. The Fort is occupied by remnants of Caesar's Legion, The Fiends and the rest of the bandit gangs. They live together but occasionally class with one another, all they need is a leader to take control and drive them to glory once again.

Interesting RP: thumbs up:

Could I be a captain in the NCR ranger forces, since I don’t really want to be a leader of the NCR but would like some leadership J (If someone does decide to be the leader, I'd take orders from them, unless the civil war thing happens)

No legion?

:cry:

It would make sense for the legion to be a small group, especially if Caesar and legate were both killed, without leadership the legion would break up in groups as various members competed for leadership, making it highly unlikey they would have gotten reforcements from the east.

I have to disagree. The legion would have its volunteering centurions battle to te death and other tests, and of that one centurion proves to be worthy, he could lead the Legion. Plus perhaps there are sOme litterate soldiers? They can read the books Caeser reads to the centurion.

Decision, decisions, ahhhh

I like the Tops, Ultra, and Gamorrah, ugh. No one of the casinos are extremely more powerful than the other right? Also, will there be gamblers, or other civilians on the strip?

Firstly that would take years to happen, given the fact any proteintal candiates will mostly be killled before attaining full control, they could also be assassinated by rivals completiors or NCR forces (they aren't gonna want a second Ceasar)

but let's assume in the ten year gap someone did manage to get control. Firsty he'd had to regain any lost land, without leadership some areas may have left the legion and formed their own little tribes and will have to captures again. Next theirs NCR or crouier forces, no doudt they have take some land back and lastly theirs other groups like Mid west Bos could also use Legions weaken state to take over land in the east.

Once this is all done the legion would then have to bulid up an army to take on the NCR, it took them Four years after the first battle and that was only against the NCR. Losses at the second battle are going to be Alot higher and will take much longer to rebulid....

Then there the task of getting this army to Vegas, countless things could happen on this jounery, espically if NCR/crouier forces have crossed the river and taken land, it's very possible they are all wiped before reaching Vegas.

simply put it will be years to get the legion back to full strenght, if not impossible....

and anyway it's up to JButton and he said cleary that their a small group, Surviours of the last battle.... :smile:

12 Legionnaires
10 Fiends
8 Vipers, the Legion have the Majority control of the fort due to larger numbers and better trained troops.

How does 12 legionaries restore themselves to full glory? And how is it that the fort contains two different raider groups?

The Legion would never Allie themselves with raiders, better yet drug addicts.

Well, their survivors of the second battle. Their not going to restore themselves to full glory. Hell, I'm surpised they didn't run back to Arizona. So there is one of two things happening there, their cowards or they don't want to go home.

Also, 12 survivors? Shouldn't their be a bit more?

IDK, I guess they could be guerilla fighters, but why would the ncr or mr. Houses robot's not already finished them off at the fort?

Well, the rest of the survivors would have ran back to Arizona or the rest would have committed suicide to avoid capture and being disgraced or something.

this

although i do think the amount of raiders should be raised to 38, making the cap 50. they won't be big enough to take on the likes of the NCR but could take on a lesser faction like a casino. they can also "recuit" from local towns/gangs or raiders


The Legion would never Allie themselves with raiders, better yet drug addicts.

doesn't say they are allied, legion are gonna need meat shields, ones to take the brunt of the enemy force, why not use the junkies who can't feel the pain! the ones that surive can be trained into legionaires (once kicked of habit) legion can't really afford to be picky ATM

although it could also be that their just hiding out among them...

Also, 12 survivors? Shouldn't their be a bit more?

IDK, I guess they could be guerilla fighters, but why would the ncr or mr. Houses robot's not already finished them off at the fort?

Might not have been at the time, Fort was porbably abandoned shorty after the Hoover dam given how much damage it porbably took, some point in the last 10 years it was reoccuiped by Legion & raider forces. Good place to hide accttually as you could see of forces were coming over the dam, and have time to hide/scatter...

House is dead i think....


Finishing CS tomorrow :smile:

I'll be my Decanus from another rp.

Is it ok if my Remnents take shelter at other places too?

Tbh, i really really would prefer legionarie recruits to replace the vipers and fiends. I just ant see the legion wanting anything to do with these hostile dissolutes, better yet shooting them on sight.

I agree. Though the Legion would have been absolutely decimated from whatever confronted them at the Dam, I don't believe they would have lost their pride or belief in their superiority.

Initially, I believe the amount of Legionaries originally suggested (12) would have remained at The Fort. However, considering this is 10 years advanced (I think), whatever remnants of the original Legion stationed there would have returned. Their attitude seems to suggest that The Fort would be something like a rally point for the Legion Remnants.

I propose that instead of the mixed bunch of Legion and Raiders, instead have them all be Legion, with recruits absorbed from the local Raider populace. I believe any number around 75 would be sufficient. 40 Legion/Raider remnants are not nearly enough to make an impact in this RP, given the fact at any time any one of the factions controlling the Strip could just send 100 lowlifes to steamroll the remnants at The Fort.

Couldn't agree more. The Legion would never recruit raiders and junkies. They would conquer them, kill their leaders, and kill or put the weak men to work.

Thats the beauty of it, the Legion have to share the fort with the Fiends and Vipers. The NCR are not concerned about them because of the annihilation they suffered, Caesar is dead, Lanius is dead, there is no one to take control. The remnants need to control the Vipers and Fiends, they have no leaders either. Like Caesar they need to absorb their clans and grow themselves, the Legion is going to be the toughest challenge, they are a minor power now and like Caesar did before, they need to grow by absorbing other clans. I suggest liberating the Boomers from NCR rule, first. To answer your question about being in other places, the answer is no. The remaining 12 are veterans and are well versed in combat and the way of the Legion.
