States that there's gonna be a mass famine killing tens of thousands

2019-10-06 18:40:00 UTC  

in a few years

2019-10-06 18:40:07 UTC  

and I am aware, definite obvious power struggle

2019-10-06 18:40:16 UTC  

But I believe the Legate could consolidate

2019-10-06 18:40:20 UTC  

*IF* they win the dam

2019-10-06 18:40:25 UTC  

Only if

2019-10-06 18:40:28 UTC  

otherwise they fucked

2019-10-06 18:40:28 UTC  

Nah, it’ll collapse. Everybody is power hungry

2019-10-06 18:40:32 UTC  

Either way i'm okay with that

2019-10-06 18:40:44 UTC  

And if the Legion takes the dam, it's not fucked

2019-10-06 18:41:12 UTC  

Caesar wants to reform the Legion into a proper state after taking Vegas, meaning a collapse wouldn't be as likely, and with that consolidation of power and renowned faith in the Legate, he could take over in a power vacuum

2019-10-06 18:41:26 UTC  

Dude the legion don’t even supply shoes to slaves. Think about that. You hinder the effectiveness of slaves. Needing more constantly. It’s an endless cycle of *needing more and more*

2019-10-06 18:41:31 UTC  

In reality the only thing you even see of the Legion in NV is NCR propaganda, or their terror tactics

2019-10-06 18:41:37 UTC  

And the NCR can't even supply body armor to their soldiers

2019-10-06 18:41:47 UTC  

There are heavy troops

2019-10-06 18:41:51 UTC  

Very few

2019-10-06 18:41:56 UTC  

and all wearing salvaged armor

2019-10-06 18:42:00 UTC  

Well they’re scattered

2019-10-06 18:42:01 UTC  

They can't produce that power armor

2019-10-06 18:42:12 UTC  

It's just the scraps from a war they barely won

2019-10-06 18:42:21 UTC  

No they can’t produce it, but surely over time with the BOS and NCR teaming up there would be a trade

2019-10-06 18:42:27 UTC  

And it's said in game that they can't produce it

2019-10-06 18:42:36 UTC  

And the NCR and Brotherhood would never team up in masse

2019-10-06 18:42:40 UTC  

small chapters like the mojave, yeah

2019-10-06 18:42:43 UTC  

But they don't have anywhere near

2019-10-06 18:42:44 UTC  

Or the wealth the NCR have, they’d buy the gear

2019-10-06 18:42:45 UTC  

enough industry

2019-10-06 18:42:47 UTC  

to do anything

2019-10-06 18:42:52 UTC  

and the NCR's economy crashed

2019-10-06 18:43:00 UTC  

that's why caps are used in New Vegas more than their currency

2019-10-06 18:43:18 UTC  

It’s in the game they’re wealthy, and when they win the damn they tax people, meaning more money

2019-10-06 18:43:23 UTC  

It’s a chain reaction of $$$

2019-10-06 18:43:39 UTC  

Even if the NCR won the dam they'd lose it in the coming decades to the massive Mojave shitstorm

2019-10-06 18:43:51 UTC  

Everybody would lmao

2019-10-06 18:43:57 UTC  

The gas from the Sierra madre and the tunnelers from the divide would feck that shit up

2019-10-06 18:44:09 UTC  

And with that being lost, the chances of a successful NCR occupation are effectively: 0

2019-10-06 18:44:13 UTC  

For anyone it's 0

2019-10-06 18:44:15 UTC  

area's fucked

2019-10-06 18:44:16 UTC  

Legion moved almost their entire army to claim the west. The east will fall

2019-10-06 18:44:29 UTC  

They don't have any eastern threats really

2019-10-06 18:44:30 UTC  

The Mojave is fucked
