Update 40: July – December, 2259
In Which Things Happen

Inter-Faction Reports

NEW EMBASSY CAUSES PUSH BACK IN SUNSHINE IMPERIUM. A diplomatic furor has erupted in the Sunshine Wasteland as the Sunshine Kingdom has stood side by side with representatives from the notorious Enclave. The Enclave has established an embassy in Nasacity, complete with a small garrison and representatives from what they claim is the true government of the United States of America. The Enclave had been previously implicated in the deaths of thousands of people in the Fruitlands when they deployed a space-based weapon against a large settlement. Condemnation of the Sunshine Kingdom’s purported support for the Enclave has echoed throughout the region, particularly from the leaders and radio of Jacksonia, which has declared that the Kingdom has taken up with the worst sorts of war criminals and mass murderers.

TRAINS MAKE STOPS IN NEW DESTINATIONS. After the launch of regular train service between Terminus and Fort Freedom towards the beginning of the year, the government of Jacksonia has reported substantial results from the new system. Travel time between all the relevant communities has been greatly eased and people have begun to know a bit of Old World comfort in the smooth transportation. The success of the Trans-Jacksonian Railroad has led other factions to looks towards the prosperity the rails could offer. Agreements with Jacksonia have led to the opening of train stations in Edgewood and Universe City, as rails built by those two factions needed only a train to run through them. A small hotel was built in Edgewood at the train station to accommodate those traveling through the area, while the station in Universe City stops right next to the recently announced Blue Lagoon Hotel, offering all sorts of amenities to those seeking luxury living and prime tourist destinations.

Florida Reclamation District

Spoiler :

The Florida Reclamation District, under substantial political pressure, has begun launching a true expansion into the wastes. The efforts have begun to reclaim the state of Florida and to bring back prosperity and development on behalf of the American people. The cloning facility of Vault 24 has begun large-scale mass production of clones based on data from both residents of the vaults and residents of the newly acquired town of Nukaloosa. The new clones have been determined to be fully functioning with average intelligence and personality, which has raised a number of concerns and debates about the new people. Many of the clones were sent out on the variety of expeditions launched, the largest being one sent to the Apalachicola River in the west. A new town, christened Saint George was established on the east bank of Hathcock Bay, relying on local fishing for food production.

The other two expeditions were strictly meant for reconnaissance and scouting out new territories for settlement. The first expedition went north with a planned destination of the independent town of Pelham, based on information provided by passing caravans. They started in the ruins of Woodville, which was determined to be both empty of any significant life and highly fertile prospects for farming. Unfortunately the expedition was not able to make it any further than the ruins of Tallahassee, as most of the group fell to the hazards of the ruined city, and the rest returned rather than risk losing everything. A similar fate was had to the eastern expedition, which was destined for the New Gulf Commonwealth’s town of Newberry. For the most part it was an uneventful trip. The town of Perry was first scouted, which they determined to be a reasonable place for a future settlement. Mayo was deemed worthless, while they were turned back at Branford due to the local highly aggressive damncat population.

Turn Stat Changes

Spoiler :

Governor’s Challenge: As we have begun mass production of clones, there is a matter of ethics that must be resolved. The clones were grown and educated in only the space of a few months each, and while they may look like other members of the population, they are mentally distinct and separate from them. The question of the clones’ rights has been brought forward by more “natural” citizenry. Do the clones only exist to serve the rest of us, or should they be extended the same and full rights of all other citizens of the District?

Georgia Reclamation District

Spoiler :

The Georgia Reclamation District has achieved great feats of construction before the year finally came to a close. A large number of new fortifications were erected around some of the more poorly defended communities, and these have come in the nick of time. A large raider attack upon the town of Ranger used the opportunity of construction to launch a major raid. The assault was repulsed, but a number of people were killed or kidnapped by the retreating raiders. In other communities, new farming equipment was constructed in order to boost production of food to make up a growing shortfall throughout the District. Thanks to the large stores of existing food, no one is too concerned about any sort of immediate food loss or crisis. New weapons have continued to be produced from the standard laser weaponry to larger artillery pieces, as the District remains determined to be able to protect itself against any threat.

The GRD launched its usual exploratory and salvage expeditions into central Georgia, seeking out new communities and supplies that could fuel its industry. The first such expedition went into the Jefferson and Arcade area. In Jefferson the robots with the expedition retrieve ample supplies, but in Arcade, they found an established community already extant. The salvage in Jefferson came across a number of intact motorcycles primed for use. The residents of Arcade explained that they had been used by a local gang before they were recently wiped out and everyone was too afraid to make an attempt at using them. Further friendly greetings were exchanged before the expedition moved on.

A second expedition to Nicholson came up empty handed in terms of any friendly support, as they were attacked by what could only be described as giant wasps. These bugs both could fly and sting with a deadly poison. Many were killed or injured by the constant attacks by the creatures as the expedition conducted what salvage could be completed. The third expedition to Statham found another settlement, this one a bit more productive than the Arcade, but still friendly. The fourth expedition had similar results in the town of Bogart, finding yet another thriving central Georgian community. The last expedition was sent to the much larger ruins of the city of Athens. The ruins were crawling with ghouls and the expedition remained mostly on the outskirts, recovering salvage from the old suburbs. Scouts reported that they had never seen that many feral ghouls in a single location.

Turn Stat Changes

Spoiler :

Governor’s Challenge: Our patrols seek payment for their services beyond the meager amounts collected by the caravans. Each patrol route seeks 1k Caps every six months to support their operations and personal expenses accumulated by constant travel. At the moment this would run the treasury 18k Caps every six months, an expense far above our current tax collection. Should we fail to pay this amount, we would likely see an immediate downgrade in the efficiency of our patrols. How do we respond to this?

Jacksonia

Spoiler :

Jacksonia has continued to be the heart of prosperity in the Sunshine Wasteland. Production of plasma weapons continues at an all-time high and the railroad has run on time for nearly a full year. Scrapping and salvage efforts have provided plenty of new materials for future construction and development. The pride of the year was a new naval expedition sent out into the western Gulf of Mexico, seeking out new possible trading partners throughout the region. They started by heading towards the Mayan Republic before proceeding on further north up the coast. The crew told stories of this stage of the village, mostly to scare children when they returned home. They told of haunted coastlines with exotic trees and creatures roaming it, including one they claimed was the size of the boat they traveled upon. They passed by cities of the dead, hearing the howls of hundreds of thousands of feral ghouls as they sailed by. It seems that the coast of Mexico has become a truly hostile and deadly place, and the crew was relieved when they finally returned home. They did not come home empty handed as they were able to make landfall on the outskirts of one of the cities, retrieving a modest amount of scrap for shipment home.

Overseer’s Challenge: The recent attempted assassination of one of our secret police officers in the streets of Fort Freedom has spurred some fear among our law enforcement. They want to initiate a procedure they have termed “Shake the Tree.” They state that under this procedure they will launch a series of around one hundred random arrests throughout Fort Freedom. The idea is that in order to save themselves from alleged crimes, those arrested will turn in others who they know are treasonous. Admittedly, this will likely cause some dissent against the secret police, but it could yield significant results if successful. How do we respond to this proposal?

New Gulf Commonwealth

Spoiler :

The New Gulf Commonwealth has apparently accepted the need to engage fully in the wasteland marketplace. Ample funds have been dedicated towards the purchase of food to help make up the shortfall in reserves and production. Thanks to the heavy level of taxation and the amount of caps accumulated by the leadership, most are optimistic that the Commonwealth can maintain a high level of purchase to compensate for a growing population. Still, efforts are underway to determine new places for settlement and salvage, in order to help the Commonwealth maintain its level of growth to date. Salvaging has continued persistently in the NGC region of Orlando, but another large expedition was sent to Gainesville. The expedition managed to retrieve a substantial amount of materials, some of which appeared to have been previously collected but not organized by the local settlement before its destruction by Jacksonia.

Another expedition set out north from Newberry to scout the territory all the way north to the ruins of Lake City. They started by scouting High Springs, which they found to be fairly worthless as a potential farming settlement, but they did find a small arsenal of laser weapons to be taken home. In Fort White they found next to nothing at all, as it seemed to also be worthless for farming and lack anything except a scarce few materials for salvage. All of these were quickly packaged and sent home. Upon reaching Lake City itself, they found the whole area heavily overrun by ghouls, and immense firepower had to be used to keep them at bay. Some minor salvage was recovered, but the prize was the discovery of an unlooted gun store which was scavenged for what weapons remained.

Turn Stat Changes

Spoiler :

Governor’s Challenge: Our people are now substantially more confident that we can survive any sort of crisis thanks to our massive reserve of funds and continued taxation. Most have grudgingly recognized the need for caps to help spur other elements of our economy forward. Still, with great wealth comes great disorder. Our workers in Fort Apopka have threatened to strike unless the government offers an assured rate of pay, regardless of the amount of return. They want 8,000 Caps every half year to help pay for labor in the ruins of Orlando. How do we respond to these demands?

Transmississippian Confederation

Spoiler :

The Transmississippian Confederation has been focused on securing the home front before all else. This was reinforced as a priority when a larger raider attack hit the town of Headwards from the south. The raiders managed to open the gates of the town and inflict substantial losses upon the militia before withdrawing with a handful of captives. Scouts from the militia were unable to track the raiders, and concerns emerged about the possibility of a second attack. Salvagers in Green Vale and Wicked Hollow continuously reported figures being spotted on the opposite bank of the Mississippi River, leaving many further concerned about what could emerge from the west. As part of the home consolidation, the territory between Chairkey Den, Wicked Hollow, and Green Vale was scoured by the forces of the Confederation. No rock was left unturned as they patrolled the area looking for civilization and salvage. They found that most of the area was worthless for farming, and the few good spots were already occupied. Specifically, the towns of Fort Anguilla and The Glen. The two communities seemed to be particularly at odds, and while Fort Anguilla was polite and courteous to the Confederates, The Glen was much more suspicious and made sure the Confederates were kept at bay. The Glen did warn the Confederate scouts about the Fort however, claiming that its inhabitants were up to no good, but did not provide specifics.

Turn Stat Changes

Spoiler :

Pack Leader’s Challenge: People have begun to go missing from Chairkey Den. Family members typically claim that they have simply chose to abandon the tribal lifestyle in hopes of migrating to better lands in the east. Friends of the disappearing people claim that they had no such intention and have called for investigation. A lengthy investigation could alienate the families of the disappeared people for no discernable gain. How do we respond to this issue?

Universal Reclamation Project

Spoiler :

The Universal Reclamation Project has continued to thrive in the hostile territories to the south of Orlando. The opening of a new railroad station hub for the Trans-Jacksonian Railroad has allowed for the possibility of new immigration and development for Universe City. The renovation of the Blue Lagoon hotel slowed business for a time, but surprisingly, as soon as the trains started running, people began arriving for day trips from the Fruitlands, arriving at the beginning of the day and leaving at the end. Local merchants are pleased with the new development, as more money comes into the city. The Sunshine Construction Union was contracted to build a truly luxurious facility called the Sunshine Empress Hotel. The hotel was built to pre-war standards, with indoor plumbing and incredible facilities of all types. A grand opening is planned for some time next year, but rumors indicate that the prices may be rather high and not accessible to all but the richest wastelanders.

Master of Ceremonies’ Challenge: Members of our leadership, including the honest businessman, are rather displeased with the government’s direct ownership of our hotels. They argue that they should be in private hands, allowing for more efficient management of the Blue Lagoon and Sunshine Empress. They suggest that the faction leadership be assigned to a more regulatory role and that the profits should go to those who operate the building. They will be rather displeased if we insist on maintaining all of the profits for ourselves. How do we respond to this issue?

Workers’ Republic of the Reclamation

Spoiler :

The Workers’ Republic of the Reclamation has had a very unfortunate conclusion to the year. They stumbled from disaster to disaster, as hundreds died in a number of incidents. The worst such incident was the destruction of the town of Wakanda which was apparently attacked by a large band of raiders. The local militia had only melee weapons to their name and they were incapable of thwarting an apparent attack by raiders armed with heavy weapons. They had been sent a number of more advanced weapons, but the relief caravan arrived only to find the smoldering ruins of the community. To make matters worse on the home front, a large amount of the faction’s reserve water was found to be contaminated, raising concerns that the reserves that remain may not be enough to make it through another year.

The Republic sent out a number of expeditions, mostly to bolster the reserves of materials the faction possesses. Salvaging in Savannah was consistent enough, but they sought more distant and lucrative rewards for their efforts. Unfortunately this led to the ambush of a major expedition just west of Savannah in the ruins of Georgetown. Thanks to use of power armor, the expedition managed to escape the ambush with all of their supplies. Still, essentially everyone in the expedition was killed or wounded in the heavy fighting. Salvagers in Augusta were more fortunate, as they managed to salvage through the city without too much incident. They avoided a horde of robots in Fort Gordon, coming out with a small amount of laser weapons for the arsenal at the newly constructed outpost called Sipa.

The largest and most ambitious operation was sent west with Macon as the destination in mind. The expedition took the road west through Louisville, where they found a small number of giant ants and a minor amount of salvage. The expedition was ambushed by raiders in Sandersville, but despite the enemy possessing superior numbers, they were driven off by the expedition’s guards. They found very little in the next town over of Milledgeville. Gray and Macon had more diverse wildlife, which mostly steered clear of the Republic’s expedition, avoiding any real confrontation. In Warner Robins they were attacked by agents of Talon Company who refused to allow approach towards the Robins Air Force Base for nearly a week while the Republic scouted the area. When they did arrive, they found the Talon Company gone and the base defenses highly alert and active. They returned home with what salvage they had acquired through the journey, but most were injured or weary from their trip.

Chairman’s Challenge: A number of enterprising citizens have come forward and asked for funds to establish a hospital of sorts in Sipa. They claim that there are many people around the ruins of Augusta who need aid and help, and that they can provide such help.

So bestshot9 pointed out the obvious to me on Monday night. I should have had Low-Tech Ranged Weapons and Low-Tech Siege Weapons to help bridge a gap in technology from the beginning. This makes plenty of sense, but unfortunately the way prices are balanced now, bringing the Low-Tech Ranged into things would likely mess the whole thing up. I’m not willing to do that, so now we have Low-Tech Siege Weapons. These can be built by any faction, and instead of using ammunition, they use Materials to bombard enemy positions. Now you poor factions incapable of building Howitzers have a way to reply to those sorts of attacks and bring down enemy walls. Really wish I had thought of this earlier.

@Ahigin: Nice sketch.

@Those of you currently in school: I am well aware we’re heading into the “final exam” season and I will adjust my expectations appropriately. If you need to ease back in your commitment here, just let me know what sort of course you want your faction to set so that it can maintain a solid path in your absence. I will be lax with missed orders for the moment, but I won’t deny that it will still put your faction at a disadvantage in the long rung should you decide just to miss an update rather than provide some sort of “holding pattern” orders to tide things over until you can recommit.

While the Survivalist Union has gone NPC, they will retain their color on the map. From here on out, any multi-town faction that is NPC in control will have its own color on the map to help differentiate them from the various single-town NPC factions.

@Dunebear: Are you referring to any caravans or strictly ones based in the GRD for the new tax payment?

@Everblack: I’m pretty sure you were referring to the town of Grand Bay, AL, which is the town that had the giant mosquitoes. This has been reflected in the update.

It should be noted that at this point, “Caps” as a stat stands for any form of currency currently being used, mostly things like precious metals and actual bottle caps. Just keep this in mind, and that there are things like gold being used in trading at the moment. It’s not all from old bottles.

@<nuke>: Just realized I forgot to charge you for construction of the railroad and attached station. That cost is included in the “construction” deduction in your turn stat changes.

As you have so many times before, you and your party have marched off into the wilderness, leaving Anniston behind and heading north. You travel across roads and mountains and rarely have much of an issue. Russell does most of your hunting, and you are amazed at the types of animals he can bring down with only his pistol. Eventually you stop when you hear a large amount screaming, just south of the ruins of the city of Rome in Georgia.

You are camped outside of the ruins of Rome, GA

The ruins of Rome are impressive, but what’s frightening is the truly large and barbaric raider camp established there. There are hundreds, maybe thousands of them milling throughout the ruins, drinking, using chems, and doing unspeakable things to unarmed people. It seems likely that if they spot you and overwhelm you, nothing good will come of it.

You and your party take a single look at Rome and unanimously say “Nope!” You turn around and head southeast. As you travel through a bit of wilderness you arrive at a small stream full of rocks and a rapid current. There’s a rickety old bridge that the four of you use, and the protectron and Russell cross first. Unfortunately as you and Diane are crossing the bridge breaks and both of you are swept down river. You try to hold on to Diane and keep both of your heads above water, but soon you are overwhelmed and she slips away. You manage to make it to the other bank and meet up with Russell without any serious injuries. You find Diane about a mile downstream, her body shattered upon the rocks and her gear sunk beneath the water’s surface. There is little else to do besides bury your dead and continue on your way. (Endurance Challenge Failed; Lose Diane and all her gear; -10 Reputation with Russell)

A few more days of travel and the terrain becomes significantly more developed and ruined. You eventually find makeshift signs directing you to Dobbins Air Reserve Base. Eventually you arrive without further issue.

You are at Dobbins Air Reserve Base, in the Georgia Reclamation District
There is nothing for sale here.

Dobbins Air Reserve Base is a large and heavily armed community. A large number of robots and laser-equipped soldiers patrol the perimeter. They view you with suspicion and have forbidden you from actually entering the settlement, declaring it to be a military outpost and restricted against civilians. The fortifications around the base are impressive, and the wall is heavily reinforced and protected, including firing points for howitzers. It’s hard to see around the wall, but it is obvious that the base is very secure against any but the most well-armed threat.

Russell says: “A lot of people will tell you that the Georgia Reclamation District is nothing but a bunch of bullies and thugs barely better than bandits. They claim that they use their equipment and weapons to force independent communities to trample on their minorities and join the cause. There’s some truth to that, but those people forget that before those vault dwellers formed the district, this entire area was chaos. Most of these ‘peaceful’ communities raided each other for the smallest amount of food and the fighting was brutal. Now they all like to pretend they’ve always been beacons of civilization.”
