I think that would be a little much. Deathclaws are already so dangerous, adding a hypnosis ability on top of that seems like overkill to me. That’s not to say I don’t think a mutant animal with hypnosis capabilities would be interesting. A power like that would be better for a small...

Scientists maybe? Also, isn’t that one cut from the game? Sounds like the version where Maxson stayed behind and his son founded the Brotherhood.

I thought that might be it, but when I tried applying the patch it said that either the patch was already applied or the mapper is corrupted. So I tried reinstalling the mapper, but now it won’t even open. Something to do with an error loading the resolution. I guess I’ll figure this out later.

The mapper tells me I can only input a number between -2 and 160. But the numbers in the map.txt go up to 172 (added by Restoration Project, I know). So how did they do it? I haven’t been able to find an answer to this so I’m reaching out here.

Wasteland comes to mind But… I like nuXCOM’s shitty system…

Perhaps that it uses action points instead of a more traditional one-action-per-turn system.

Is that an encounter? I don’t think I’ve ever gotten it.

Messing around in the BIS mapper and found the Statue of Liberty in scenery. I assume it was added by RPU or something, but… why? I don’t remember seeing it in the game. Is it a special encounter I missed? Just curious.

Didn’t they own the license for DnD video games? I think the Deathclaw was lifted straight from a canceled DnD game they were working on.

Huh, I always thought they were just swinging their arms as they walked.

I really don’t know how tall they’re supposed to be. I guess 12 feet makes sense. But they seem bipedal to me.

Ah, so it was a stupid question. Thanks for answering.

Right, I was just comparing giant raccoons with giant pigeons as similarly “mundane” (as far as what’s acceptable for Fallout). I suppose 13 foot tall killer pigeons would be a bit too extreme, but only because at that size they’d rival deathclaws. But as far as mutant pigeons go, I don’t think...

Pedantically correcting people is its own reward

I think that would be cool. We could use more avian creatures. But I’d like them to look a little uglier. Maybe make them featherless or something. I also had an idea for bald, flightless vultures that would be similar. I thought the S’lanter were removed mostly for being anthropomorphic...
