📋 About This Mod
Inspired by kvatchcount's Legion Auxiliary series, Ponderosus adds new heavy legion units as a counterpart to the NCR's own.
Inspired by the Legion Auxiliary series of mods by kvatchcount, Ponderosus aims to expand the legion arsenal with a new type of unit to serve as an in-between the Decanus and Centurion - the dreaded Gravis in their Ponderosus armors.
Legend says that while they may lack the cunning of the Centurions or even a veteran Decanus, they make up for it in their sheer strength and brutality.
They carry the strongest weapons the legion has on hand, taken by force from lost roaming remnants of the Master's army and the Enclave.
They are formerly of a tribe craftsmen and have hand created their scrap armor as an homage to Legate Lanius, to whom they aspire.
They lack in numbers, but each brings the strength of ten men.
Because of their rarity, they're harder to properly reinforce, therefore they're only found in legion bases of operations, or rare attacks that require heavy arms support, and most will not respawn.
Some things may have been better tested than others, so don't forget to report any issues.
What's Included:
- Three types of Gravis troopers -
- Machine gun totting Disruptors
- Explosives wielding
- Minigun handling
- Three armors -
- A scrap armor for lower level Gravis
- A refined armor for the higher level ones
- A unique set available in the Legion Safehouse as a reward to aligned players
- Four helmets -
- Each representing the respective Gravis weapon specialty, plus one for the unique armor
Compatability:
- This is designed with kvatchcount's Legion Auxiliary in mind to a degree, so you can use the whole collection to turn areas like the Fort and Nelson into proper impenetrable fortresses
- My Legion Taurus armor mod, as it used to be part this before it got split into its own thing
