The Cold War Mod

[Joshua021027]

This is a work in progress and I have started in 2 weeks before I posted this Topic. Im looking for people willing to help me with this project.

 

The Story where you acturly begin takes place 2 Years after the Broken Steel Story. Refugees from surrounding Settlements flock to the DC area seeking safty among the Brotherhood of Steel and other Settlement Security Forces. Ever Since the Succesful Project Purity was Activated the Captial Wasteland has become more succesful and the standard of living has been raised. The Brotherhood of Steel found the Location of the Super Mutants and Striked them hard, Forever leaving the Super Mutants scared for life. With the Enclave defeated there is no organized force that can stand up to the Brotherhood within the Capital Wasteland.

 

Though the Brotherhood can not be the Guardians of the Capital Wasteland forever. The Brotherhood on the Western Coast still Deem them as traitors and eventurly will punish Lyons and those who are loyal to him. With this threat to Security of the area and the refugees that flocked there. 2 months after the Broken Steel story Important Figures from around the Wasteland aswell as representitives from each Major Settlement came together to come up with a plan. They plan to make an allience, but aswell as that, remake the Nation of the United States. With DC being the Capital if it was restored to its former glory then it would become a landmark and a Sarting point for the Recreation of the United States of America.

 

This sparks intrest among the Chinese Population within the United States, they begin to worry about the United States growing bigger and faster then any of the Chinese Settlements around the World, especially San Fransisco one of the most Scientificly advanced Settlements in the United States with a large Chinese Population and Desecnds from the Chinese Armed Forces.

 

With parts of DC Restored and a fuctional Government and Army in place, the Government attempt to rebuild the United States and start moving towards Uniting the Settlements and 'Nations' Scattered around the United States. There first goal was to reach out to the New Republic of Calfornia and this scares the Chinese. If DC managed to Unite the East Coast with the West Coast then America would once agian become a Superpower, this time it would be the Strongest and the Only Superpower in the world.

 

Chinese remnants gather and form an army and attempt to sabotage DC's efforts to link the two coasts. Although the Chinese forcers were bigger then expected, and out number the American three to one.

 

You have already left your mark on the Capital Wasteland, now you must leave another one. Who do you side with? Democracy or Communism? it entirely up to you.

Rousource and real life situations

 

Economy: This will be one of the most Crucial Elements you'll need to devolping your nation. The System I am hoping to use as this is making another Currency, though not the type you use down at the local store, when your in a governemnt or Organization there will be someone you recieve quests off to help improve your economy for example capturing a steel mine and that will give you an income in Metal, or a farm that will give you and income in food. you can choose to sell a percentage of this food for money, but there is another way to eanr money. Tax. Now here is where you can be corrupt and lazy by not doing any quests and instead taxing the living day lights out of peoples wallets and buy the Resources you need.

 

Population: The most important Factors this will be tied in with is Economy and Military. Your population will increase and decrease according to actions you do. For Example, raising taxes, crime etc. will decrease the population, as Better Health and Education and Protection will raise the Population. Also you will need housing for the Population so that will become a factor. A high Population will benefit the economy because of more people paying taxes without need to tax them above the average and even encourage more people to live in DC. Though remeber that the more people that come, the more money you need to put in other sectors to accomadate them and make them happy. For Military, this means a percentage of the population will go and Join the Army. For example 2 out of 5 people will join the Armed forces. You will need population to make more squads and be reserves for Soldiers that have been killed. Also they'll be needed to boost Military Strength in certian Areas. For example Megaton Region or Rivet City Area.

 

Scientific Development: This will help improve your Technology, ranging from Lazer Weaponary Development, Health Technology, Education Technology, Robot Manufactoring and Power supplies. Lazer Weaponary Example will have Sub Projects underneath it as well as many of the other Scientific Projects. It may have Lazer Weaponary Manufactoring (Quantity and Quality of Lazer Weapons) Anti-Lazer Armour, more varities of lazer Weaponary (Plama, Tesla etc.)

 

Welfare: This Area houses Security, Education, Accomodation, Employment, Health, Commercial Devolpment and Industrial Development. Education will make people smarter and they can have the ability to do better jobs like being Scientist and Engineers and will help other Sectors improve like Commercial and Industrial Development. Health will improve peoples happiness and keep away disease will improve services at hospitals and open up new qualifications (Like Surgeons and Dentist etc.) Accomodation is Housing for people ranging from Apartments to the average Family Home, Accomadation will be needed for housing the population and the quality and quantity of houses. Employment will be the jobs that people get, fo instance you can raise advertising in certain areas to attract people to go there. Education and Population comes in here, the better educated people are then the better quality products as well as better job oppertunities and positions. Commercial Development is the amount of Shops and enterprises and the products they sell and how many are located through out the Capital Wasteland and maybe even beyound the Capital. Industrial Development is what provides Commercial Businesses with produts to sell. Security is the Local Police Force, they deal with civilian crimes and help control civil unrest until the point the military are called in. They are also the first line of defence agianst an invasion in populated area, therefore it is pretty to upgrade with better equipment, armor, weapons and training.

 

Military: This is the Arm of the Government, you can think of it as your own personal hammer if you really are that corrupt. The Military Protects what belongs to your nation. You can upgrade your armies gear, weapons, equipment and training to make them either the most high-tech army, the most well skilled army, the Biggest army or all of the above. An Army isn't cheap to run and the soldiers still need to be paid. Soldiers can be placed in certain areas to keep it secure from enemy attacks and help keep the peace and maybe lend a helping hand to the locals the rebuilding and such. Soldiers are put into squads, and squads are put into platoons etc. so you will have your own war room and can choose where to put troop deployments etc. You can also support militias and mercs to do your dirty work. Another thing you can do is bolster a certain areas defences to give it fortifications and help your troops defend that area.
