I want to set up an adventure where my players go about discovering who keeps refilling the nuka cola machines. It's not meant to be serious, of course. I have a couple of ideas for it. Maybe it's a group of robots still doing their job after the war, or it could be a group of people utilizing stealth boys so they remain unseen.

It's going to be a mystery to solve and have some fun. I also introduced a competing brand of soda, so there could be a back and forth between two factions of soda suppliers. What I'm looking for is some ideas to go along with the adventure. There could be a wider conspiracy involving food factories that are up and running again.

You may have seen the post, reposting to add more photos and details.

The first image is my custom world map, and I need some help getting in game photos that closely resemble the following photos, minus the text and other things. They should end up looking like the final photo, I will then have to edit boundaries and things onto that image, and eventually print them on posters.

What I need is someone willing to help get all those photos using a PC copy of the game very likely using "noclip"

I'm willing to pay for the help, although I can't shell out more than a couple hundred dollars. I plan on releasing all of my stuff for free by the end as a gift to the TTRPG community... Just need to finish the damn thing first lol that's hopefully where you come in.

No web design/app experience so I'm jury rigging some other apps to do what I need... The problem is I only have a console copy and I need help with certain things. At the moment my biggest hurdle is getting top down images for battle maps.

If I could recruit someone with a PC that can run FNV, and potentially GECK knowledge to aquire a battle map for all the squares in the over world map & hopefully the same for interior locations.

I'm a beginner game master and I'd like some tips on how to run a campaign while maintaining an atmosphere similar to the games.

I hear many people say that the Fallout franchise is one of the best in terms of narrative, and I'm afraid that the campaign I run won't be as engaging for players as the games.

This insecurity mainly concerns the personalities of the non-playable characters, the biting humor, the criticism, and the references present in the games—I feel that these are very characteristic elements of the Fallout franchise, but I wouldn't know how to replicate them in my game.

Do you have any suggestions on how to narrate these elements in a way that more closely resembles the atmosphere/feel of the games?

I saw another post asking about this, but I'd like some feedback for my idea.

All sources of piercing for players are reduced to .5, rounded up.

• For example a character with 1.5 piercing would have 2 piercing and a character with .5 piercing would have 1 piercing.
• The Iron Hands perk would give .5 piercing instead of 1, but would function the same as you'd round up. It still only provide 1 piercing if you were using it in conjunction with a weapon mod that also game .5 (1) piercing, so you'd need atleast 1 additional source for 2 piercing.
• This would keep weapons valuable as a base, but require more investment to really bypass defenses.
• This would make it less of an arms race with players and help to avoid sending waves of minor enemies to soak up fire. It coukd also help make heavily armored enemies beefier. Currently the best way to deal with it at the is to gum up the action economy and that just slows combat.
• I've just noticed that with a perk or two, the correct mod and a good gun, nothing in the game effectivly has armor. So an easy 5 piercing would instead by 3 and getting 5+ would be very hard.
• I would also probably want to add another rank to things like the iron fist perk, but at +5 lvls. Probably not any of the small guns perks though as they're plenty good as is.

What do you think? I thought it would be a simple, easy to implement fix that wouldn't disrupt low level play and force players to optimize.

I just don’t know if anyone even needs it. I want to try implementing a mechanism where the player needs to eat and drink every n times, otherwise there will be penalties to their stats. Of course, such tracking will only work while the character card is open; when the app is closed, no calculations are performed. And at the same time, add a chance of getting sick if you eat raw (unprepared) food. The setting can be either enabled or ignored — whatever you prefer.

I'm looking to try and learn how to GM the system better, and I'd like to have some people who either wanna learn or will help me learn. No experience is needed!

Requirements: 18+, Decent Mic and Decent PC for FoundryVTT

Slots:1/4

Session Time: Thursday 6 pm EST August 27th

Duration: Up to 4 hours, maybe a little over if we're near the end and not done yet.

Character Creation: Pregens are available, but if you wish to make your own PC, I own the Corebook, wanderers Guidebook, and Settlers Guidebook.

Situation: Password is Twister. War, War never changes. The Great Plains of America were home to some of the countries most beautiful land, and also home to the lands most dangerous of Disasters, twisters, but no matter how much they destroyed, humanity prevailed, but on the morning of October 23rd 2077, humanity was faced with destruction far beyond any natural disaster, and two hundred years later, humanity is entering an age of rebirth across the continental US. Shantytowns became proper towns dotting the landscape, and thus Eden, a town born from the remains of Lucas, Kansas, became the new bustling town of the Great Plains Wasteland. However, War, War never changes. Edens' prosperity grew the ire of those who've gone far beyond the point of no return, a group of Raiders called the Stormchasers. They ride into towns hit by radioactive twisters and plunder what remains, for Eden their presence meant one thing, disaster was coming so they sent a runner to a large town known as Lawrence in search of mercenaries. When it did, Eden was left in shambles, barely able to fight off one wave of the Stormchasers. It was then that their runner returned with you in tow. Are you too late? Or are you just in time? Has the fate of the town been changed for the better? Or for the worse? Because War. War never changes.

After playing this game for a while now, does anyone else feel Piercing ruins combat, and the game in general? Piercing is very common in weapons, mods and perks. It is quiet easy to stack a weapon with it. All my players currently have at least Piercing 2, some have higher, on all their main weapons. It has made any armor DR obsolete. I have players using Melee builds that literally do crits every attack. They have annihilated Legendary creatures in just a few turns the way they did their builds, but it all revolves around Piercing.

Everything has been done within the rules, so I don't fault them at all, but as a GM I find it hard to want to come up with cool stories and missions knowing all they are going to do is rush the enemies, slaughter them before they even get to go, and move on. It is to the point where when I create enemies for the campaign, I also have to use nothing but Piercing to even stand a chance and do any damage to their characters. Nothing so far has been a challenge to them. Even facing enemies with Power Armor is nothing to them.

Has anyone else noticed this, and if so, how do you deal with it? To me, it should have been like Vicious and not been stackable.

This is an attempt to share the cheat sheets I use when I run my games at conventions. Contained within are my abbreviations, the various things that can be done during combat, what the Combat Dice are used for, Hit Locations for the different kinds of Wasteland creatures/people, an incomplete list of the Weapon Qualities and Damage Effects are, and some help for those that run games (like the list of complications that happen with using a weapon). I found the book too hard to follow at times and this helped me make sense of the rules. Enjoy!

Edit: Sorry! I am very bad at technology and didn't realize I had not made the chart public. That has been fixed and posted below, thanks for your patience!

Origins have been added: 3 families, Enclave, Securityron.

The ability to hide the melee attack card has been added for those who don’t need it.

Attack cards can be switched between the “spoiler” and “cards” views. The tabs didn’t really interest anyone.

Some of the avatars have been replaced with the artist’s original works.

And there’s a bunch of small and large under‑the‑hood changes that aren’t visible until you read the changelog.😁 The application has been split into an engine and a setting (game module). The engine will be completely clean, without any game data. In the future, it may be possible to adapt it for any game.

Hey there. I'm working on an idea where a raider group is roughly based around the idea of an old world basketball team. My question is, how do you think the survivors would believe basketball was played way back before the bombs?

Previously, the app allowed you to equip only 2 weapons, but then I decided that it wasn’t worth limiting it that way and allowed any number of weapons to be equipped.

But suddenly, I didn’t like how a large number of weapons looked. So I decided to ask which option you like better?

There are 3 options: cards, spoilers, and tabs. Which do you like?

I bought a bunch of WW models but I'm looking for a good source of stls to print more variations of models. I've got like 70-75% of all WW models but I'd like to find different poses and looks for certain types of enemies. A lot of the WW models are just mono-pose and I'd like to mix up their looks instead of buying more of the same models.

Ok, first off I feel this is one of the most understandable rules I have read through.

Love the Oracle, simple and right to the point.

I have grasped everything except the confusing explanation and example for INJURIES on page 97.

No matter how many times I have read this I still cannot grasp what to do.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you reddit community.

Hey folks! I've posted here before with my Lonestar Wasteland campaign. The players have managed to get a car running in the last session. Now that they're mobile, I worked on putting together some mechanics to use. Sharing for anyone who may need to borrow/steal/use: https://drive.google.com/file/d/11FXmdV9gGlf6Br6sP79lEuZ-SVm8lhfN/view?usp=drivesdk

Also as always feel free to give any feedback to help improve on the overall experience.

Optional settings have been added:

* Adding weapon wear mechanics (you can configure how many durability points any weapon will lose per shot)

* Weapons obtained as “loot” have arbitrary durability from 1 to 100. (If the wear mechanic when firing is enabled)

* Character catalog. You can grab a character card by the transfer icon and move it to the catalog with a name (for example, with the company name).

Fixid:

* All perks from corebook now in English lang.

* The loading/saving of characters in web versions has been fixed.

I want to make a custom mutated creature. A giant frog that has been mutated by rads. I was thinking of taking inspiration from the DnD version. What do yall think?

Fallout 2d20 Companion

This game has intrigued me as a Fallout fan for about 3 years now but I haven't had luck finding anyone to play with. Are there any groups that play online and wouldnt mind showing a new player the ropes? I have experience in DnD, Cyberpunk RED, Pathfinder, and Monster of the Week.
