That actually makes it worse ::) You really don't see a problem with helping one gang against the others? And yeah, "nothing" is much better than breaking something that was working perfectly fine. The moral of this riveting tale is not "GMs shouldn't partake in actual Fallout lore" (whatever that is, I don't recall NCR securing any other towns as early as 2238), it's "GMs should take a while and think about consequences of their actions before they start pissing people off".

I could barely even be bothered to reply, but read it.

2242 Several years after buying the Excavator Chip from the Chosen One, Marge LeBarge is able to purchase and control both the Morningstar and the newly opened Kokoweef mines. Marge is an easy choice for Mayor, and using her new political power, she makes Redding join the growing New California Republic in return for a seat in the NCR's Hall of Congress.

I think its nice to devert from the main story, having them take action more quickly, its what roleplay is all about or in this case story telling. :)

I'm used to Redding being unguarded, but it does have a Sheriff.

hmmmm....

If player gangs can TC, then why not NPC factions?

We could spin the NCR guards into NCR "Gang" taking Redding.
Boot them like any other gang.

An evolving political landscape would be a pretty cool feature, but would require more work (and power) than a GM could provide.

So we get some guards/etc.

It was great for laughs.

------------------------------
Perhaps "NCR" could be assigned TC status for Redding along with militia.
(Have a dev make an "NCR" dummy gang entry and have a GM account with override for number of members required for TC- use that account to "take Redding".)

Simply awesome.NPC working for TC is amazing,and i wish them to be very powerful,requiring multiple alliances to be kicked out...and lot s of guns and ammo to be looted.This is so good it deserves a suggestion post by itself.

Spawning guards aiding a faction in a competitive environment is not storytelling, some people would even call it cheating. Moreover, there was absolutely no reason to target Redding out of all places - as stated earlier, this city was doing perfectly fine without any GM help, unlike The Hub, Boneyard or even Junktown. Besides that doesn't even make any sense according to Fallout lore - first of all, the NCR expansion north was possible mostly due to Chosen One taking the other big player (the Enclave) out of the picture and secondly - this sort of expansion triggered a war with the Brotherhood of Steel which would basically be unavoidable even if the NCR expanded earlier - and that would just look and feel friggin' awkward.

Fallout authors did only write story up to Fallout 2, and even left before it was finished. Rest is as good as fan fiction - will never beat the original.

Yeah it's set in 2238 where this could not yet happen :d.

Remember surf isn't responsible for his own actions so unless another GM is gonna step in and clean this mess up no one is.

Let's remain positive: At least this experience has shown to those who claim that without TC mechanisms, without militia, without PVP teams, everything would be better, that they are completely wrong.

There will always be organized groups ready to break everything, just for fun.

To stop them, a group of looners is not enough. You need a true team, organized for combat: builds, communications tools, tactics, etc..

Let's hope those dreamers will not lose memory and will remember that a PVP team can be useful sometimes...
