pass speech checks with intimidation

[TheBlob2]

a mod that gives you the ability to intimidate and coerce people into doing what you want, and get them to agree with you from a position of authority. it should also be based on your character's level, combined with the total value of all the items you currently have equipped.

Yeah, but I want most speech checks to be passable using intimidation. But this shouldn't work for everything, but it should work in most situations. Like where appropriate, you can't use intimidation to 'lie', you can't intimidate certain characters, like Lanius, Caesar, general Oliver, or the NCR president. But most NPCs you should be able to intimidate. Like at the start of the game, there is a speech check to convince doc Mitchell to give you more stimpaks, minor checks like that should be passable with intimidation.

You might want to go through and list the instances where it would apply, so that you have more detailed control and also to save time for anyone that want's to fulfill the request. It's not hard per se, as it's simply an additional topic to the pertinent dialog quests, but it's (IMHO) god awful tedious.
