Atomic Orion Roleplay

​

Welcome, to a new server taking place in the setting of FALLOUT: NEW VEGAS. Join a campaign of New California Republic soldiers through episodic travels in the Western States of post-apocalyptic America.

Chapter One | U331H Bunker
Somewhere between California and the Mojave on the Long 15.
Before the Enclave had set up their operation to travel to the Poseidon Oil Rig, them along with the infamous Vault-Tec had funded compounds across the Western states of the U.S. equipped with state-of-the-art technology and an underground fallout shelter. Right before the Great War, the Enclave had abandoned these many facilities and flew in vertibirds towards the Poseidon Oil Rig, taking as much technology as they could with them. Many of these underground bases would later be re-purposed by many Western factions such as the Brotherhood of Steel's Hidden Valley.

Chapter Two | Camp Ida
On the Long 15 just between New California and the Mojave.
Later on after the NCR's growth in Shady Sands, the large faction traveled West to claim more land that they could use to further their intentions. Through the Long 15 the group set up many checkpoints across the road, one location would be Camp Ida across ways from Bunker U331H. It set up to stop any waste-landers interfering with operations in the Mojave. Later on the NCR would discover Hoover Dam, as another faction quickly moved West, Caesar's Legion. The two factions quickly grew to hate each-other and started the War of the Mojave.

Chapter Three | Helios One
Near the Helios One power plant facility.
After the disagreement between the Brotherhood of Steel and the NCR of who should keep Enclave technology who we're eradicated from the Mojave after the battle of Camp Navarro; A war began against Elder Elijah who were quickly defeated by the New California Republic. The Brotherhood retreated to the Enclave facility known as Hidden Valley as the NCR overtook Helios One. Many soldiers were sent to Helios One in attempts to re-power the facility, however there were low hopes of doing so with less than successful scientists. The NCR considered the project a near failure and soldiers we're extracted from the area, only leaving a few for crowd control and a hope to still recover the facility to full power.

Chapter Four | Base Orion
Inside Bunker U331H.
Shortly after Helios One's transfer the U331H bunker was discovered by Camp Ida. Shortly the facility was restored to working order and Camp Ida was disbanded. All of Camp Ida's soldiers and the NCR transfers from Helios One we're merged into Base Orion. Using one of the few vertibirds from the raid of Enclave's Camp Navarro, it's become one of the biggest NCR operations to both operate in the Mojave and New California. Handling with Caesar's Legion, the Western Brotherhood, and other crooks in different situations and strategies.

WHAT IS THIS SUPPOSED TO BE?
This will be a one faction episodic Roleplay set in the Fallout Universe, inspired by the ideas of the recently shut down Security Detail and giving a SSTRP feel to it. You and your character will be apart of the Orion Arm, a collective group of soldiers from the NCR that does various operations in both New California and the Mojave Desert. The server will be a whitelisted function as with SD, to join just simply go onto our forums and follow the application procedure (just requires your steam ID). Through various events you'll interact with Caesar’s Legion, the Crimson Caravan, the Brotherhood of Steel, raiders, mutants, and regular wastelanders or small factions in either New California, the Mojave Desert, or another location in the Western states.

Not much to say about the thread itself, though I'm looking forward to the project. However, I found it a little confusing that the Fallout section of the PG forums kinda goes into detail about NCR/Legion ranking and divisions; I expected things to be a little loose as far as command and supervision goes, maybe, as a common error of military roleplay (from what I've seen) is the bunch of ranking characters restricting everything instead of keeping things simple with a single leader (something SD got right).

I was wondering, will the other factions hold any sort of depth themselves or are they going to essentially be living targets for the protagonists to shoot at? Idk why you'd specify on Legion ranking if the case were that they are just throwaway antagonists.

Edit: Btw, I imagine a separate Steam group would be better instead of... the +300 member group in which most of them are most likely irrelevant to the server itself.

 

I agree with all of this, I wasn't the one who made the rankings and whatnot though - that would be my partner Rick, I think it's there just to be there, but as far as everything goes I control NCR and we're keeping the loose authority figure like you guys want, don't worry. In ORION rankings won't have much of a meaning anyhow. As for the Legion we're still discussing a few things on it, maybe it would be cool if for a one time thing where everyone got to play Legion for a mission or two and switch sides a little before returning to NCR. As for the group, I'm in the process of creating one right now!

 

Well, I can certainly help out with any doubts you have about the Legion. I think I have a pretty good understanding of it, and wouldn't mind giving a hand with establishing their field presence or behavior as a military force/combatants. But I honestly found the proposed ranking in the forums for them kinda... messy; even including political figures that don't seem to have much to do with the legionaries themselves.

The ranks have been updated appropriately for Caesar and NCR. Will add you soon, busy week fml.

 

Count me in.

jk ily dremek

 

So far we've had around 9-10 signups today (some off forum for user personal reasons), wasn't expecting this. Thanks for this guys!

 

It's more of an inside joke between me and Pt1lly.

You even had 47 members on at once at one point!

 

i was gonna say that but i knew i would get stormed with boxes

 

I'm sure Canoness and her crew can make it work, I know PT1LLY can get shit done from previously working with him and Rick is a pretty determined guy, and Canon has been pretty good at catering to the players and making things fun for people. Remember these are the same people that ran the HL2RP, and people had good times.
