      the Brotherhood that Legion fought is likely either reference to Colorado BoS from cancelled Fallout Van Buren or the Midwestern BoS from Tactics (this would make more sense as Midwest BoS basically gives random tribals weapons and Power armor without much teaching about their history). Legion doesnt spread as far as Chicago or Texas so them fighting either is unlikely

  • @finnl6887
    @finnl6887 Рік тому +9

    Worth noting that in Fallout Tactics the Eastern Brotherhood (Chicago) were also considered rogue. The whole reason they were sent east to begin with was that they were all considered the more radical elements of the organization, and it was believed that they'd be a bad influence on the youth, and that as long as they stayed mobile via airships they would stay on mission and not go native. Instead, they crashed, and since they were cut off their more "extreme" notions were allowed to grow. This chapter of the BOS grew into a full fledged empire, because they were expansionist, as well as inclusive. So fallout tactics not being canon doesn't rule any of that out, and from what was said in 3, we know they still exist, they were still radicals, and more inclusive. New Vegas confirmed they'd expanded to the Colorado, so we know they're still an empire too. The only stuff up in the air about them now is their exact story as to how they became an empire, and the villains they fought along the way are non canon. But the Midwest Brotherhood and its general nature are still pretty much confirmed.

    Edit: It would be very cool to see how the Chicago BOS differs from other BOS maybe they have really gone rogue, maybe they have found something and that's why they have been very silent and maybe they just have communication problems. A Fallout game set in Chicago now that would be very interesting.

    Is it fair to call Boston a "core power base" of the Brotherhood, like DC is? The Brotherhood's presence in Boston isn't much more of an occupation, in which they'll inevitably return to the Citadel - by Prydwen or on foot, depending on the ending.

  • @Lavenderlore1043
    @Lavenderlore1043 Рік тому +9

    I'd love to see them explored in a future game. I know the lore is kind of up in the air, but I alot of those old ideas from Tactics are good. And seeing an inclusive Brotherhood(as the Midwestern BOS also accepted Ghouls) would be really interesting. Maybe they could be working on a cure for the feral condition of ghouls(much like the cure for the Nightkin schizophrenia in New Vegas), that'd be a good story arch. Maybe you'd have to take blood samples if you took out ferals, and you could form alliances with ghouls and recruit them into the Chicago chapter. It'd be especially helpful since most ghouls will be 200 something years old, and thus probably have at least some level of Pre-War knowledge. They'd make great scribes, and could be sent in as infantry to highly irradiated places. Whereas the Metas(as Fawkes calls them), would be great for support/heavy weapons, and if they were highly intelligent (like Marcus for instance), and were skilled in medicine, they could carry great quantities of medical materials due to their strength, making them great as doctors.
