i adressed it at the start of this fallout tactics series made by Ox., but i'll do it again cause those 2 mods and who crated them really deserved it. for all the bug, glitches and cut content who wants to play this game should really download the mods "Equilibrium" and "Fallout tactics redux". those stuff make this game 3/4 stars to 5+ stars.

[JingleJangle]

I remember Caesar in Fallout New Vegas making a comment about the Midwestern Brotherhood’s origin. He talks about them not knowing who Roger Maxson was and that they are little more than raiders.

[rememberthefallen]

The fact that Elder Maxson mentions another chapter of the brotherhood that had blimps and airships that had dissapeared a while ago tells me enough of this game is canon

[sera]

I have to admit I like how Tactics gives Harold the Tiber Septim/Talos treatment, either he's a leader of the ghouls, a warrior of the BoS, or even a saint of some leafy scalp, or maybe all three.

[maxtyler]

I think the armor could be explained. The outcasts wanted to distinguish themselves from the western brotherhood when they left, and altered their armor before setting off.

[kolap]

Speaking of hairy mammal deathclaws, I've seen early design sketches from Fallout 1, where deathclaws look exactly like that. They were changed to smooth skin lizards because of performance problems with models.
Evidently designers of Fallout Tactic got those skatches without knowing which was actually used, and which was not.
That might be case also with another lore-breaking designs.

Oxhorn: “I’ll condense down”
Also Oxhorn: *Hour and ten minute long video*
I expect nothing less at this point 😂😂

i guess mariposa could have been deemed a 'military vault' it was a nuke proof bunker, just not a vault-tek vault.

When the mechanic says "It's burning oil, " he's referring to damaged components. Oil is not supposed to get into the combustion chambers, but if seals are worn out, oil can leak into them. It's still an issue unique to gas-powered engines, though. I have no idea how Fallout's retro-aesthetic nuclear-powered vehicles' engines work, but I imagine they still need oil to lubricate the moving parts.

[RRacer]

Still more accurate than Fallout: BoS on PS2. That takes the entire Fallout lore and wipes it's disgusting, irradiated backside all over it.

Truly amazing how much they got wrong.

[kk]

I always thought the tactics power armor looked great. Just my opinion

[TacComControl]

"The FEV doesn't destroy the reproductive organs"

Rule34 artists: IT'S FREE REAL ESTATE

[Hopalongtom]

The Fallout Tactics instruction manual claims that the Power Armor is a non military pre war Power Armor that the Brotherhood has salvaged.

[runningthemeta]

I’m so glad that you addressed Paladin Solo, it was so confusing hearing them referred to as a woman, but he sounds like a deep voiced male.

[yoelmprieto]

For a second, I thought this was Cinemasins lol

[jacobbuckingham]

Mutie just says that the effects it gives you resemble that of super mutants, so I think it just works like other chems, super mutants have enhanced strength and endurance, buffout gives these effects to humans, I believe mutie works similarly

[hiddendesire]

15:05 Before the FEV mutation was scrapped from Fallout 76’s mutation system (back when mutations were also cosmetic), I had planned on playing as a Super Mutant Doctor with a Vault Tec lab coat. Today’s botched surgery, tomorrow’s iguana bits.

[comradeamerican]

Just because they use oil doesn't mean that they use gas. oil is really just used for the lubrication of parts the vehicles could very well also be biodiesel

[jakespacepiratee]

I know this game is screwy with canon but I still love it.
The Midwestern Bro-Hood > The Eastern Brotherhood.

[mareczek]

I mean, the beginning is semi-salvagable since we can assume the separated chapter lost parts of its history with presence of a narrator in Game Over screens its a retold version of the story. Similarly with purpose of the vaults - since most vaults were described as business of survival, BoS members would likely be unaware of experimental nature of vaults.
