Fallout 4: Strategy - retake the Wasteland! Steiner here, I was playing with some thoughts about Fallout 4 and how to make it more fun for people to play with. I came up with a nice little script/sketch or whatever you wanna call it - becaues I suck at modding/programming I came to this forum, so somebody with the right skills might take the challange. INTRO So you emerged out of the depths of Vault 101, still freezing, blended by the natural light touching your eyes after 210 years - as lone survivor of 111. We all know the beginning of Fallout 4, you go to Sanctuary, get some s*** done, go get some settlers and then it starts, the adventure into the wasteland that was once Boston. But after 100 hours in the radioactive hell and 100 saved settlers which got snagged by Super Mutants or Raiders I thought - HOW CAN WE STOP THIS!? There comes this mod (or atleast the vision of it) in play. Retake the Wasteland! In short, build an outpost, gather resources, start building weapons and recruit soldiers, grow, battle the factions, retake the wasteland! CORE-ELEMENTS First of all, there will be 2 kinds of "settlements". Settlements, where resources can be gathered (Metal, waste, food, water, bottlecaps, etc.) and Outposts, which are ment to deffend keypoints and controll the surounding area. In Settlements there will live settlers, they will work for you. Gathering resources, producing weapons, robots, etc. - out of these resources you can arm them and start your first attack on the raiders nearby or wait till you have enougth caps so you can hire mercs which will fight for you. As soon as you have your first Outpost, things change a bit. The map will be seperated in different territorys, which are controlled by an outpost. Each territory has a specific amount of settlements. But where is the difference between an Outpost and a Settlement? In an Outpost you will produce soldiers with the resources of the settlements in the region. More soldiers, more power. Also you will need these soldiers to deffend your settlements and the outpost against incomming attacks. (there are much more uses to Outposts and much more things I want to have in there but for the sake of length I will keep it short) So what will happen when you get hold of a territory? The amount of enemys (humanoid) will be reduced, maybe eradicated. So you and your settlers are safe in the new order of the Wasteland. GOAL The goal of the whole thing is simple - to controll Boston and make it a better place again. To stop your settlers from getting kidnapped every 10 mins and to stop the mutants and the raiders in theyr track (or even BoS or the Institute). So if you think you can do that, please message me - I whould like to be part of the project. More ideas? Feel free to post them underneath or message me. Greetings Steiner
