    TV Series Retcon Thread

    I thought, as per the Fort Strong terminals in 4, it was still the deployment of T-51b that "turned the tide" in the Yangtze.

    You meet deserters in an encounter there but it's not a deserter camp so I don't think that's what he was talking about

    There are a lot of CC quests, that's not novel. Did he? I remember him using explosive rounds in other scenes, but in that scene I recall it just being AP. Could be wrong. In any case it's still small-arms fire.

    The idea of their being some fundamental flaw that the ghoul's aware of and takes advantage of is perfectly fine, par for the course. But the problem itself is quite silly. With the Osprey, it's an extremely complicated machine that works the overwhelming majority of the time, but there's a...

    TV Series Retcon Thread

    Vault-Tec was always supposed to be a dystopian parody of the excesses of capitalism, Tim Cain has said as much and it's just plainly obvious. IDK if this is a retcon, they're just a different species to the ones in Far Harbor that happen to have the same name. Enclave is not mentioned in 4...

    I mean it's not even like Gulpers are some super-death engineered killing-machine like Wannamingoes or Deathclaws, gulpers are just an animal basically. It would be like Vault Tec releasing angry gorillas to exterminate surface dwellers.

    you misunderstood me I agree. My point to Brady was, even if we infer that they have any degree of radiation resistance, it would be another stretch still to assume they have total radiation resistance. If you invent a virus you can also create a vaccine before releasing it. Just cook up a new...

    seems like perhaps the least efficient way possible to spend your time post-war trying to wipe out surface dwellers Total radiation resistance is still notable, it's one of the big things what makes the FEV notable. I wouldn't rule out other means to achieve that, but I wouldn't assume it out...

    I mean if anything the Gulpers probably got out because of the mutant rebellion, not because of Vault-Tec per se. But I guess it would be on there heads either way. Y'know I was going to say to the show's credit that the concept of a mutant slave revolt is sort of interesting, though actually...

    Even without the Vault door it's unlikely. To adjust the comparison, it would be as if there were a hiidden cave of Lenape troglodytes underneath Yonkers. Yes, that would still probably be found. The way the chalk board is written makes it pretty obvious that this is supposed to be the same...

    In my earlier post I originally was going to point out to Phipps that there's no such thing as Unity culture among Super Mutants without the Master, but I decided against it as it was pretty obviously not what he was referring to. Well sure I concede that none of those example are listed are...

    The Master was occupying and sacking more distant and hidden places already. They forcibly occupied Necropolis and were capturing Ghouls. They probably destroyed the Union of Atomic Workers, though that's vague. There were probably other vaults that they cracked open for Prime Normals, since...

    Also as an aside - You say that ghouls and Super Mutants are so different as to not even be considered humans. While it's true they might pass outside of the human species, neither can represent a species in and of themselves: Neither can reproduce themselves by organic means or pass on their...

    Well Tunnelers are probably human in origin, but they've obviously speciated and are obviously reproductively viable. I don't know if the Trogs are reproductively viable, they might only 'reproduce' by normal humans succumbing to the disease, and thereafter be infertile. Don't think the game...

    I agree that the mutations were not creative enough. Really they're so mild that I would expect that more from a Wasteland community that was close to a source of persistent radiation, maybe with a bit of inbreeding thrown in for good measure. Gulpers are the only interesting mutants to come out...

    I suppose it's POSSIBLE that the Master could have discovered it and it could be in it's present state, but it doesn't seem particularly likely. Generally Super Mutants make a big mess, and they love to kidnap people to experiment on in more secure conditions, like the Cathedral which would just...

    Yeah, Vault 4 doesn't break the Master at all. The Master would no doubt be interested in the research and mutants at the Vault: The Master was interested in mutagenic research to refine his own processes after all. But as Vault 4 was not using the FEV (to our knowledge), it would not solve the...

    Help Me Justify the Enclave in Washington D.C.

    While the Enclave did have intentions to use Bloomfield as the launching ground for outer space colonization, the Enclave was never supposed to be actually at Bloomfield as far as I know, and it was never an Enclave base per se. The only location from Van Buren where we can infer present Enclave...
