Brotherhood Overhaul

Recommended Posts

A few things have always bothered me with the Brotherhood of Steel in the Mohave wasteland

 

-They always stay in their Bunker and even when the lockdown is released, only a lone patrol is seen walking away from the entrance, depressing

 

-They don't make any moves to ally with the NCR, or the Lone Courier if he decides to become Independant

 

-They don't use the other Bunkers in Hidden Valley

 

basically my gripe with them is they don't have enough choice or consequence with them, apart from the ending slide or if you blow them up.

 

So I suggest a mod that expands the Brotherhood Of Steel Mohave Chapter it would do this by

 

-Expanding the Other Bunkers in Hidden Valley and possibly adding more bunkers around the wasteland

 

-enabling the Courier to Broker a agreement with NCR to let the Brotherhood walk into their towns and patrol the I-95 Highway

 

*Update*

 

-After becoming a Paladin in the BOS, You can help Hardin takeover the BOS or help Mcnamara change it

 

- Hardin's Questline will have 4 quests in it, they are:

 

- Beginnings (Locate the superweapon for Hardin, hidden in the mysterious 'Installation 7'

- use the Enclave Mind Control devices to enslave a few Deathclaws

 

- Lies, Lies, All Lies! (Spread Lies and Rumours about Elder Mcnamara to the factions around the wasteland)*, using the superweapon

 

- Viva La Revolucion (Begin the Coup'de tat)

 

------------------------------------------------------------------

 

- Mcnamara's questlines

 

- Detective Courier (Find evidence that Hardin is planning something big)

 

- Mayor of Crazy Town (Discredit Hardin and find a way to make him leave, without killing him.)

 

-

 

-

 

-Lets player turn the tables on Head Paladin Hardin by finding evidence to dismiss him from the Brotherhood, opening the option to become head paladin

 

-as Head Paladin, will be able to send patrols to various areas of the wasteland, eventually going as far as nellis air force base.

 

please post your suggestions, criticism is very welcome!

 

please give me suggestions for quest names!

I like the idea of really being a part of the brotherhood. It always bothered me what Elder McNamara says when you become paladin, to always keep them in your heart, makes it sound like you did a good deed and got an honorary reward rather than actually being a part of the organisation. Furthermore, it always bothered me that Hardin was plotting a mutiny and you never have the option to turn him in.

 

Seems to me that the battered T-45d suit should be the reward when the lockdown is lifted whereas becoming a paladin you should be issued BoS T-51b armor and one of those gauss rifles you see them patrolling with.

 

If you did make it to head paladin it would be cool to be able to grab paladins and lead raids against the legion or something; conversely, if you were just a paladin it would be cool to join the rest of em on raids. Kinda like Operation Anchorage, in a way... On that note, maybe instead, or in addition to that, you could be given permission to use the VR training pods. That would obviously be a lot more work, but it would be pretty sweet and work around the problem of having limited targets to strike.

look up NAVPopulation under mod files, it adds more people and ghouls everywhere. unfortunatly that small scripted garrison doesn't last very long when four times their number of powered armoured Brotherhood paladins show up, and are now surrounded by a growing heap of legion and NCR bodies, hell they could build new walls with those bodies...

I know that there is a mod or two or there working on making the Midwestern Brotherhood, who are the more badass, and slightly (barely) more helpful to wasters (Except muties, who they kill in really horrible ways, not just shooting)

 

I had a similar idea way back but it never took off, and now I'm bust with S.E.R that I can't really develop it but I'll link you to it and maybe you can develope your idea and get a mod out there instead.

 

Ideas For Quest Mods, (Big quests/Tiny sidequests, all types of quests.
