Claim the Mojave (and the Capital)

==Overview==

This mod is based on my Rebuild the Capital mod. In that mod you could turn various locations in the Capital Wasteland into outposts for the Brotherhood. I took that idea of capturing locations in the Mojave and focused on how it can serve as a rather simple “gold sink” (a way to spend your casino earnings). Compared to Rebuild the Capital, Claim the Mojave is a much simpler mod and designed to compliment FPGE and the Living Desert. The end goal of this mod is to serve as a good way to unload caps and also make it feel like you are helping your faction secure their hold on the Mojave.

==Starting the Mod==

The main hub for this mod is an Abandoned Army Bunker found in a narrow canyon north of Spring Mt. Ranch State Park and South of Red Rock Canyon. Once you find the key card that lets you into the bunker (or if you have a high enough science skill, bypass the security panel or if you have Veronica with you, she can hack the panel) and restart the bunker’s generators, you can claim the bunker for the faction of your choice. You can also rename the bunker whatever you want using a text input menu.

Once the bunker has been claimed, you can use the command terminal in the Commander’s Quarters to start spending caps to invest in locations on behalf of your faction. The bunker also serves a player home, but you can also purchase a command terminal for the Lucky 38.

The bunker can also be upgraded with a quartermaster, a doctor, a cook, and a reconnaissance map which allows you to gather intel on possible locations you can invest in.

==Factions==

You can claim the bunker and other locations in the Mojave for up to 24 Factions
