Description
When you download this NCR Troopers are added to Forlorn Hope. a platoon has arrived from the 32nd Regiment to assist and you are part of it. You can ask the quartermaster for a weapon and some armour. He will also give you daily rations. Also you have a new companion who can accompany you. Forlorn hopes surrounding hills and lands are scattered with legionaries and with the occasional raiding party. The general idea is to make you feel like your a trooper on the frontlines of war and provide a deeper feeling.
I recommend using hardcore mode with this along with this mod. In the NCR https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/48758?tab=description
Other Stuff
I plan on adding some quests. Maybe a couple of other additional things and in general polishing this mod.Pvt. Davis in the forlorn hope shack is recruitable. But be care full because he is loyal to the NCR and not you. He also isn't essential so he can die in combat. He uses limited ammo to and he will need ammo given to him. You might have to split your rations. This all adds to the realism of frontline warfare. If you leave base your going to make sure you have proper supplies.
