caravan traders/traveling merchants quests and upgrade

[kieranbhoy]

wouldnt it be cool if the traveling merchants had thier own base/settlement? there could be a place to sign up for a daily quest aa a caravan mercenary plus you could make a trader commander where you can dress them and give them weapons? maybe even make up the route the go with a laser pointer aim and shoot at a location and they follow to there? maybe a little camp during youre route?hire more traders ,guards?

 

i thought of this idea while heading to novac after nipton at the bridge i followed the traders and we came across legion assassins, legion squads, vipers, more vipers and night stalkers then i was like could this be a mod? i checked sadly no

 

so please awsome modders make this for me and the other people who do things like this

I actually think that sounds like a good idea, I'm not a modder but I'll give you my support in what ways I can help.

 

Firstly, I'll organize the request so it looks better and so its easier to read, since people sometimes skip a thread if the see its just a clump of text.

 

So I'm going to re-write it, without changing your idea, and then you can edit it into the original post so it looks organized and stuff.

 

Here goes:

 

"I thought it would be a great idea if the traveling merchants and guards had thier own base or settlement.

Perhaps they could have cool features like

• 
   
  
• A place to take daily jobs
  
• A Trade Commander that you could trade with and supply the traveling merchants like give them custom armors and weapons to use on themselves.
  
• You could set new routes for the merchants and travelers, maybe using the map or a scripted rangefinder gun or dialogue
  
• Hire new guards or travelers, or even quests to recruit new ones from different areas and settlements.
  
• Perhaps you can sign on as a guard or merchant and travel the routes as a small repeatable sidequest?
  

 

I thought of this idea while heading to Novac after Nipton, I followed some traders and helped them as we came across Legion Assassins, Legion squads, Vipers, and Night stalkers then i thought that it could be a cool basis for a mod."

 

I hope i didn't change too much.

 

Anyways now that thats out of the way, Here are some of my ideas.

 

• 
   
  
• Perhaps include the idea of prospectors, AWOL NCR troops, freed slaves, etc. in the settlement.
  
• Or the settlement could be in really bad shape or very small when you find it and you as the player can influence the town by caps, quests, and special stuff.
  
• Perhaps based on the players reputation the town can have different themes, like if you ally with the Legion then so does the town, so then the residients begin to wear Legion armors and fiend outfits, or you ally with the NCR and you see rangers and NCR armors, etc.
  

 

I really like the idea of giving armors and things for the merchants to wear, I'd love to travel and suddenly see someone else in some strange custom armor, (Like Darth Vader just walking along with his brahmin! =P)
