📋 About This Mod

A combat intensive quest mod. An ultimate Brotherhood of Steel mod. One can do all things Brotherhood, like hunt down and destroy synths, super mutants, ghoul extremists. Also safeguard and prevent proliferation of dangerous technologies.

This is a mod with large number of quests, some organized into several story lines, some independent. Sometimes  quests depend on others from different quest lines in order  to continue, Also, there are plenty of repeating quests. All the quests are very much randomized, often unpredictable and different each time you play them.  Quests are telling a story about a Brotherhood of Steel chapter which arrived from the West Coast with specific mission. Also it is about a company of mercenaries fighting for whoever hired them. There is a number of new factions, each with goals and motivation of their own. This mod is trying to tell a realistic story about people surviving in the harsh world with little room for good and evil in it. Mod is fully voiced and adds 4 voiced followers.

+ new quest, "Shady Business"

+ some interiors changed

+ bug fixes

+ weapons changes

+ FAQ reorganized

A small quest line added, about stopping those selling weapons to super mutants. A narrative has been changed. Now, there is a plausible explanation why Western Brotherhood is after smart mutant, why are they interested in Ellie and why is protagonist sent to visit the Citadel. The Springvale School quest is about retrieving a Backup Device used to store synth memories to holotapes. It means that memory synth scans are available from very beginning and no other quests depend on completing "VaultSIM" and "The Right Thing". Those two are entirely optional, now. There is no need to load older saved games and no progress will be lost.

I have found a way to resolve some long standing animation issues. For that reason I changed weapons added by the mod to something that previously didn't work properly. One weapon is replaced, some others have improved animations. This mod is now featuring shotguns which are truly useful. The bad guys have them, too.

The development of this mod has been assisted by ChatGPT from OpenAI. ChatGPT is state of the art. ChatGPTt knows a lot about Fallout games internals and it helped me adding very important stability tips to the FAQ

.- - - STORY - - -

For 20 years Elder Lyons kept sending reports back to California. His involvement with locals were very much disapproved. However,information about unstoppable super mutant infestation were alarming, nevertheless. Finally a group of Elders decided to act. Brotherhood of Steel chapter was sent to the East Coast. Only a half of them survived the journey. Survivors had a plan. It was assumed that super mutants are being created from humans who went through some sort of transformation. If confirmed, that could be super mutants' greatest weakness. The chapter is trying to prove that super mutants are transformed humans, indeed. If they manage to confirm it, then a new plan will be put in place..
