I have exams on at the moment so that follow up post may well be delayed, but thaks for your support and kind words. Hopefully I will get something written in the summer holidays. Not too far away now.

Good. Personally I don't like the mutant part but that is because I happen not to like that particular mutant face. The rest is excellent though.

I would have no trouble with horses. The only reason I can think of to explain them not appearing is that the artists did not want to deal with drawing the horses and that a lone wanderer 'walking' through the wastes was deemed a more powerful mental image for use in the game. Also, I think...

I agree that gratuitous violence (or at least violence for its own sake) be generally avoided (I prefer - saved up important moments of breaking tension - exposive outbursts of brutal violence; sort of like Gabriel's encounter with Frank) In this case, with a small number of rescuers cutting...

Okay, I was waiting for Rogue to step in and post even though I suppose I should have just continued on and described the wedge but hell, I'm just a bit lazy and I was worried about the constant gore. It tends to feature heavily in my work. This was one reason I have tried to keep the violence...

Yes, I can understand that. However I was told that in an effort to keep this RPG separate from the Fallout series, most references were to be avoided. I believe the idea is that this is set far enough away from California that Fallout game events and the details you identified do not actually...

I'm not entirely sure about the timing but we tend not to involve activity from the exising Fallout universe. The first Lone Wanderers thread is on the archived boards. Sorry I cannot help you any further - I am the new guy: I only joined at the beginning of chapter 2 but if you are...

I was thinking a quick trip back into Tabis to take stock and resupply as far a possible then see about transportation to Grey Cliffs. Joining a caravan would seem to be the simplest and most realistic answer given the fallout setting. Time on the wagon would be a good opportunity for...

Krieg and Gabriel stood side by side, the big Captain taking Rockson’s place in the line. The pair blasted more of the attacking deathclaw as the creatures continued their relentless assault. To Krieg it seemed as though the beasts knew that if the heavy troops broke through the bestial...

Yeah, I was going to do a follow up post describing the aforementioned wedge tactic but I had my English exam today and it was my first one so I have been relaxing and winding down from the tension - because I'm rarely nervous I am not used to dealing with it. Now I have more than two weeks...

Blood sprayed everything as bullets tore through deathclaw flesh. All along the line, the troops were firing at the beasts as they made a fresh attempt to storm the human lines. The air was filled with the thunderous roar of machinegun fire, ecstatic warcries, screams of pain, shouts of warning...

Another hundred yards. Nana was breathing hard and she only glanced back occasionally for fear of falling. When she did, she saw the black-clad stranger running along side the convoy calling encouragement to the others. Who the hell is this guy? she wondered. He appeared in the bar...

I like the idea of getting away from the 'Chosen' idea and a vault man character. There are so many other potential starting points - it would be nice if Fallout 3 could make the decision about your character's origins yours to make and make it effect the game - your starting location could...

Good stuff, Rogue. I'm glad everyone has been so nice to Bear - all of you have described him excellently. I have to revise a lot these few days - I have an English exam on Dickens' book, Hard Times, on Friday. But I should be able to write a post describing the supply team meeting up...

No problem. Though having now said that my team should reach the El first, which does make sense. I have to get off my lazy ass and write some more posts - I did one a minute ago but it didn't really move the convoy along that much - we are close though. I never imagined the supply team would...

The supply team was running slow. Gabriel could hear the laboured breathing as the out of shape packmen lugged their cargo with grim determination. They needed to pick up the pace but these people weren't all up to it and he knew that if they spread out to much, any deathclaw could hit the train...

I believe they are aiming to meet up with the rescue team - I think one of Welsh's posts mentioning their desire to cover some ground and meet the rescuers half way rather than have them fight all the way in, then back out again. Therefore, your escapees should be trying to reach the Elevated...

Well, the tribals must have survived somewhere. I don't figure them for military base survivors, (although the inhabitants of Arroyo are descended from vaultdwellers as well as other folk) Difficult to say but NCR claims to have a population of three thousand or so and very few of them will...

Cheers

One rib was almost certainly cracked. Three others were bruised and painful. His torso was taped up and Gabriel hoped that would hold them and prevent further injury. He was hurrying and pain burned his chest. He'd only had an hour to lick his wounds back at his lodging when the call went up...
