How dare you insult my Legion like that profligate! :swear:

I'll have you know that Caesar himself made it all the way to Novac. And he's still alive.

10/22/281 1:21 P.M.

Benny walked into The Tops, white pinstripe suit, and spoke to Swank, telling him of 'Bennys' plans. After exploring the suite and talking to Yes-Man to see what The Courier had been doing, he confronted his imposter on the casino floor. Convincing him to come to the Presidential Suite, they had a conversation, talking about The Courier's plans. After the Courier started walking for the Elevator, Benny quickly whipped out his silenced 10mm and started firing, the gun working like a peashooter, the Courier whipped out Maria and started to return fire on Benny. Bleeding out, Benny popped several stims and fled for the confrence room. Throwing the doors open Benny was shot once more, falling to the ground, bleeding out as he crawled to a corner of the office, Benny, in last thoughts, felt a mix of laughably cruel irony, dying by his own gun. Then, he felt misery at the knowledge that his dream of an Independent Vegas would never be, the world faded to black as he soon lost all conciousness of the world around him.

Paladin Todd really has a hard life!
Getting into fights with every NCR and Legion patrol has really taken its toll on him.
He's in freeside now, Lvl 12.

Unless it's because of the dumb dumb thing, I don't quite see why You'd pick a fight with the NCR, I think a real BoS member travelling solo would keep his identity low key.

Robert House is now at level 10 and through a combination of Intense Training and Implants, his stats are equal to the real Mr. House. He used the caps he won from clearing out the Atomic Wrangler and the casinos on the Strip and bought his scribe bodyguard a little present. The Embrace of the Mantis King fit perfectly. After helping clean up Freeside to make the road to his city safer, he decided to take the King's cyberdog to Jacobstown to get him fixed. He is now traveling the long road into the mountains.

When Mr. House went up against him he nearly got killed. Luckily I managed to run into the next room and drink a huge amount of Sunset Sarsaparilla, confident that Veronica would be able to deal with Benny. She did and I got a nice suit and a new gun to replace my barely used 9mm Pistol.

Lol, I would have played with Combat Armor or something, but I was keeping in the 'Light Armor' catagory. I was wearing a Dirty Pre-War Businesswear at first, then put on some Leather Armor, Reinforced. The stims would have worked fine, but he was able to shoot me, which kept the health from going up. :(

I have only worn four different pieces of clothing in this playthrough so far, not including hats which I have worn two. Started off with the Vault Suit, then got the Wasteland Wanderer clothing, then the Grimy Pre-War Businesswear and ended off with Benny's suit.

Well, I started off with the Classic Pack Armor shortly, then swapped to Leather since it was easier to repair, then swapped to Leather Armor Reinforced. I did wear suits and a Bright Brotherhood robe. Still makes me annoyed though, I manage to survive frag mines, 9mm SMGs, and two Grenade Launchers, but I lose in a fight to Benny. Plus that was very ironic because I was so confident I'd kill him :(

Alright, after getting Tycho started and having to do quest in Goodsprings. I decided to head out.

Vulpes made Meyers sheriff of Primm, knowing he would be in debt to Vulpes and let the Legion control the town after they capture the Mojave.After meeting his son Vulpes Inculta Jr., second in command of the Frumentarii in Nipton( I'm to lazy to create a clever reason why there are two of us.), he congratulated him and used his squad as cover through the treacherous road ahead. The move turned out to be a good one, as several raiders attempted to ambush him. With the help of his fellow Legion members he repelled the attack and made his way to Boulder City.

R.I.P Fink :cryvaultboy:

That svcks Martyr, killed by...yourself. :( I'm kind of worried about facing Benny now, if Viper gang leaders nearly killed Caesar, Benny is his goons probably will. Caesar is only level six at the moment, although I do have combat armor reinforced mk II. I figured Caesar would wear it for two reasons:
1.) Legion armor is relatively scarce
2.) It offers a good disguise - someone in Legion armor will be shot on sight, and Caesar knows better than to fight his way from Goodsprings to Vegas.

So here's what has happened so far:

Caesar decided that Primm was insignificant to the greater goals of the Legion - and his own goals of getting revenge on the profligate who shot him back in Goodsprings. After passing by Primm, Caesar fought through small bands of raiders until he reached the bottom of a large hill, on top was a large NCR base- their entrance into the Mojave. Caesar kept moving toward Nipton, and it wasn't long before he noticed a heavy, black smoke rising from the small settlement. As he neared the town, his lips curled into a smile; there, standing valiantly at the front of the burning town, was a Legion flag, the bull dancing against the red cloth, welcoming its master into his kingdom.

Caesar had pride in his steps as he walked into Nipton, passing crucified profligates and heading for the town hall, were a small group of Legionaries were gathered. As he neared them, Vulpes Inculta approached him, and Caesar was relieved to see his most talented fumentarius. After talking with Vulpes for a little while, http://steamcommunity.com/id/tycho808/screenshot/506890852519919628/?tab=public to the road just south of Novac. Then he sent them away and http://steamcommunity.com/id/tycho808/screenshot/506890852519915597/?tab=public, looking for information about the man in the checkered suit.

Caesar moved toward Nelson to meet up with the Legion occupiers there, but was stopped by http://steamcommunity.com/id/tycho808/screenshot/506890852519916538?tab=public After ignoring the fool's warnings, http://steamcommunity.com/id/tycho808/screenshot/506890852519918503/?tab=public and got a status report on the situation in Nelson. Satisfied with the Legion's progress in that area, Caesar went back to Novac and talked with a former NCR marksmen named Boone. He saw weakness in the profligate, sensing his desperation to bring justice to the person who sold his wife to the Legion. Caesar found the best armed man in town, a man named Manny Vargas who was armed with a hunting rifle, and had Boone shoot him. Then Caesar took the hunting rifle off of Manny's corpse and fled the scene, heading for the 188 trading post.

He met a profligate woman at the 188 who offered to travel with him. Caesar agreed, planning on using her as a meat shield in future fights. Sure enough, outside of the Gun Runner's compound, Caesar picked a fight with the Gun Runner guards. Veronica charged at them, taking the brunt of their hunting rifle fire, while Caesar came up from the back and killed them with his power fist. Veronica was killed during the fight, but he didn't care, she was, after all, nothing more than a profligate woman foolish enough to travel with him. Caesar proceeded to take guard's combat armor, then he attacked everyone on the inside of the factory, killing them all and looting an assault carbine and some 5mm rounds from their corpses. He traded the combat armor for a more advanced, reinforced version at the Gun Runner's kiosk, and then http://steamcommunity.com/id/tycho808/screenshot/486625012259417268/?tab=public. While he would have preferred to wear Legion armor, Caesar knew he would be shot on sight in this area, and the reinforced combat armor would provide better protection when he faced Benny at the Tops Casino.

Decided to get in on this, going to do a Raul play through

Well Raul died, while fighting the raiders at the Nipton road pit stop the car next to him blew up crippling most of his limbs, a couple of shots later he died, however I think EDE survived the encounter.

well RIP Raul.
