  • Ever wished you could see the Enclave in the new Fallout games? Sneak into Navarro, travel to the Oil Rig, battle Frank Horrigan? Well now you can!
  • In my opinion, Fallout: New Vegas is a lot like a new, Fallout 3 version of Fallout 2. So, with this mod, I\'ve added back the Enclave in all their glory.
  • I hope you like my first mod, all feedback is welcome!
  • ------- --= Description =-- --------
  • This mod adds the Enclave into Fallout: New Vegas, with Camp Navarro, the Oil Rig, a forward HQ bunker and several other small outposts.
  • Rather than the Enclave regaining strength again, this mod is about going back to the time when the Enclave was at it\'s peak, around the time of the Chosen One\'s quest. Except you get to choose what happens to the Enclave this time, will they suffer the same fate or will they be victorious this time around? You decide.
