The Queen is still alive, basically a brain in a tank (with tea injector of course), commanding the powerarmoured SAS regiments.

Morloks.

That is all.

>Vault 30's experiment was to make half the population Chelsea fans, and the other half Arsenal fans.

So this is a joke, then?

>Moptops from Liverpool.

Im from liverpool, england. whats a moptop?

Basically, the Beatles.

all the music should be 70's punk

especially london calling

>>13664828

>Vault 30's experiment was to make half the population Chelsea fans, and the other half Arsenal fans.

Everybody, dead within a year.

>>13664874

>Implying that Arsenal fans consider Chelsea their rivals over Tottenham

why would there be vaults in England

>>13664877
UKfag here, I don't really care. Our national sport consists of overpaid dickheads being given money to act like human terriers.

>>13664844
Make sure she's the GOOD GUYS though.

This isn't America, where even in a little zombie attack they all get killed or turn evil. This is Britain, where the army quickly mops them up and heads back home for tea and biscuits. Pic related.

(No offence to Americans, but your military gets the bum deal in media)

>>13664883
Because we in Europe jump on every American trend?

>>13664828
Giant rad Beatles

And maybe some sort of ghoul mummy cult in the muesum of london

>>13664883
Because you're a wanker, you gormless tosser.

Because Vault-Tec has a multinational presence.

>>13664887
>the Royal family
>good guys
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>>13664887
Well, not in the game Killing Floor.

Granted, there the zombies can turn invisible and have rocket-launchers, chainsaws and miniguns implanted.

Who needs bottlecaps when you got dosh, innit?

>>13664900
How could the Royal Family be bad guys? They're like our version of Captain America or something.

That's why they refused to run to Canada during WW2, why they spent their nights visiting people huddled in tube stations instead of fleeing.

They're there to remind us that we can and should be, above all else, British GENTLEMEN.

>>13664887
I'd vote for more of a New Vegas style faction thing with Royalists on one side, Chav Scum on another, Anarchists as a third maybe?

I'd quite like to see a bombed out houses of parliament with a lone, deranged, ghoulified Labour MP still trying to push through ridiculous volumes of legislation.

>>13664917
You really believe that?
They're bigoted parasites living off our tax money, and the only reason we keep them around is down to tourism and a bunch of braying, horsefaced toffs who'd bitch if we turfed them out.

>>13664928
>They're bigoted parasites living off our tax money, and the only reason we keep them around is down to tourism

You call them parasites, yet you then acknowledge they bring in tourists? Cognitive Dissonance much?

They bring in more than they spend.

>>13664928
Let's keep it on topic, if you want to hate on the royals, take it to /b/ or /int/ or somewhere.

This thread's for post apocalyptic London.

>>13664924
And Scandinavians banding together according to their viking ancestors deciding to tour the British Isles again instead of Caesar's Legion?

East India Trading company as the Big Bad, based out of their headquarters in Covent Garden.

Most of the underground infested by mutants. I'd say that most of the supermutants should clearly be displaying thick gold chains, trackies, baseball caps, etc.

Most of the main stations (Kings Cross, Paddington, etc.) should belong to a faction.

SPEAKING OF

Monopoly faction? They're attempting to set up bases on each of the properties, which will eventually act as places of rest and respite for travellers, even if they have to pay out of the ass for the privilege. And don't ask what happens if you can't pay...

Extend north to Stansted... Could have some interesting equipment and such there.

Finally, something along the lines of the Kings in FO:NV, operating in the main theatre districts of London.

Just a few ideas...

>>13664928
You know they're massively respected in the international community right? At home they're more or less pointless, sure, but they're an incredibly useful diplomatic tool.

Another thing I'm going to need is an opening monologue in the "War. War Never Changes." mold.

>>13664939
Bullshit.
If we kicked them out but left their Palace standing we'd still be raking in the dough.
Besides, only old farts go on holidays to look at what's essentially a piece of well-made architecture with guards in front of it.

>>13664944
Wrong city I guess, but "The Beatles" instead of "The Kings"?

>>13664828
>The crows of London Tower are now mutated nocturnal predators, verging on sentience.

Hell yes, giant eagle/crow birds that swoop down on people. You'll have to think of some new animals though, most of the fallout wildlife is geared towards the American Southwest. Like the Radger, a vicious 5 ft long animal with a taste for human meat.

Also, are their Supermutants in your area? was the FEV anywhere?

Keep in mind this is in the fictional setting of the Fallout Universe so Parliament can be as good/bad as we want them to be. It's not like Fallout is very historically accurate, after all.

>>13664948
Since they are the heads of state, yet not tied to any political party, they also increase our political stability massively.

>>13664928
I heard on the news a couple months back that the royal family costs 50p or less per person a year. You certainly wouldn't see that money get taken off of taxes.

Also people worshipping the blue police box = CLASSIC

>>13664942
If we're talking Britain as a whole I think something resembling the old Anglo-Saxon kingdoms could be quite cool for out in the countryside, mostly villages because the towns are too fucked up to work properly. The cities as a rule should be more like DC from FO3, Birmingham's almost there already in places!

>>13664917
Right they sent the Canadians to Dieppe!

Just like the ANZACs to Gallipoli!

And Black and Tans to Ireland!

And the Welsh to Crimea!

And the opium to China!

And John Company to India!

And, ah sod it. The point is, it's not where they go, it's who they make go where and for why. British royalty is notoriously dastardly in this regard. There was never that much love for colonials, and they sure as hell felt the repercussions.

>>13664917
Britsh republican here.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH, okay.

>>13664958
Well since the Fallout universe is a dystopia hell hole even BEFORE the war, make it so they're both inefficient as fuck. Even more than now, I mean. The resources are dwindling and they're just fighting amongst themselves constantly and constantly and getting nothing done, whiel outside the country rots!

Just like Congress!

Replace the Kings in FO:NV with The Queens, based on Freddie Mercury?

>>13664969
Er, the Monarchy didn't do that shit. They haven't played a major role in government since the early 1800s.

All that shit was done by an elected government.

Yeah, the FEV exists in London. There are Supermutants, and then there's the Globe Theater Supermutants who just want to be left alone to perform their plays.

>>13664969
>Implying the Royal Family did any of that.

>>13664976
>Implying Mackenzie King didn't beg George VI to stop the poorly planned Dieppe raid.

>Implying Churchill's mandate for Gallipoli didn't come from George V.

I can go on, if you prefer.

>>13664969
Fuck's sake, keep it on topic man! Take this shit somewhere else if it matters that much to you.

In any case, That's patently not true. You're insinuating that the Royal family is in direct command of the armed forces, something that's not happened since the Civil War.

and it was Churchill that masterminded Gallipoli for fuck's sake and he's a national hero now!

Out, damn troll!


oooh, oooh! can we have The King's equivalent to be shakespearian actors?

Let there be a Ministry of silly walks!

>>13664928
>>13664900
>>13664969
>>13664970
Got a problem with the Queen you pom fuck? How about this colonial takes you out the back and shows you how we do it 1800's style.

Also ANZAC's in Gallipoli earned me and Kiwi's a day off work. Good enough in my book.

Ministry of Silly Walks? Only as a one-off gag:
"And here's Minsitry Row. Ministry of Defense, Ministry of Recreation, Silly Walks..."

>>13664997
Fuck Yeah! Dead Parrot companion, anyone?


Also, Knights of the Round Table? BoS equivalent for Britain?

>>13664980
>FEV in London.
You are a fucking failure at Fallout.

Okay, in the Falloutverse, the EU went to war with the Middle East for what oil they could get. That was the Resource Wars, which later spread into the annexation of Canada and the Chinese invasion of Alaska. Then the bombs, the EU was hit terribly bad by it, and dense populations saw mass rioting and warfare amongst the survivors. The EU basically doesn't exist anymore.

FEV was created by West-Tek, at the behest of the US ARMY, as an pre-emptive counter to the Chinese bioweapon Limit-117. The Europeans would not have had access to it, as the US was not on good terms with Europe.

Finally, Stop just rehashing the same fucking plot over and over in different locales. Come up with some new things.

Needs moar V for Vendetta.

>>13665015
You mad?

>>13665008
I'm thinking more of a Dead parrot weapon

other things aside, what happened to the beasts in the London Zoo? What about the Eye? is it still standing while London Bridge has fallen down?

>>13665015
You forgot about FEV getting airborne and infecting ALL life on Earth.

Suddenly, mutated-FEV Supermutants who are grey-red instead of pure-FEV green Supermutants.

>>13665021
>I have no retort. I know, I'll mindlessly spout 'u mad'!
>That'll show him!

>>13665008
Knights? When you have the SAS around?

I could see the Dead Parrot being a unique umbrella sword weapon, stored in the Museum. kept safe by the mummy cult.

Didn't read the thread, gut reaction here.

Black Dogs. Heavily irradiated hounds with a craving for flesh, irrationally good physical abilities that allow it to fight the party alone, and a tendency to only attack people when they're in groups. If they walk alone, the Black Dog escorts them, to the point of defending lone wanderers to the death.

Ghouls speak Cockney.

Scotland Yard is NOT safe.

Metro tunnels are pretty much the only relatively safe place to be. All other places are inhabited. Likely by the crowmonsters.

That moat is not empty.

British Royal Armories is awesome. You should go there. As long as you're not a ghoul. Or a ghoul-friend.

Mutated horse-driven cabs. The cab is made out of steel. Masked Cabby is secretly a badass. He will not help the party under any circumstances but to reliably get them from point A to point B. He will, however, drive for favors.

>>13665034
Yeah, I can accept that, but supermutants need to stop being a major plot point. airborne FEV would create, at the most, sort-of-super mutants, not as large as vat-dipped ones.

>>13665034
Whole world with FEV would be boring as fuck as there wouldn't be anyone normal left. They handwaved the East Coast as having some FEV of a different strain so they could stick Super Mutants in Fallout 3, but other than that, nope. But instead of FEV you could have some other mutagen, possibly something mad by some far right lunatics as part of some secret super soldier project before the world got nuked.

1) The Royal Family have degenerated to Point Lookout mutants. They are kept locked up in a zoo-like Palace by a dedicated order of warrior-butlers. They butle shit up.

2) The mines up North have reopened, bringing wealth and prosperity to the area. However, mining is risky due to ghouls and other radioactive creatures that commonly live in the caves.

>>13665069

The Butlers are mildly eccentric?

Are there Deathclaws in the UK? Or is that an American thing?
Also, the Chinese didn't invade Britain, but someone did. Who?

My shot at a "War never changes" intro.


War, war never changes.
Human history has been filled by this uniquely human activity and Europe has never been an exception. From Romans subjugating the continent, Vikings raiding our shores and Crusaders in the Holy Land to Napoleon and Hitler’s failed plans Europe knows their wars. In 2077 the European Commonwealth had failed, its proud peace-preserving mission over as its members set on each other for the few resources that remained.
The bickering was for naught as the rest of the world armed and launched the bombs, devastating all that remained. It was truly a War to End All Wars.
But War, war never changes.
Those few who survived hid beneath the ground in tunnels or vaults, saving themselves from the fire and radiation on the surface. Now long after, people emerge again into the ruins of Europe, and you as well, for London is calling you from the underworld.

>>13665038
The SAS need to be more of a "Get the job done as quickly and cleanly as possible. Fuck shit up with lightning speed and precision and then get out". I imagine they'd be tied to the Royalist faction thanks to the whole military oath thing

Knights/Society of the round table, however I'd imagine as being built around the remnants of the old universities. Mostly they stay underground rebuilding technology and heavy industry on a small scale ready for when the surface is in a stable enough political situation to accept them. The order militant of them would have the power armour and high tech weapons, they'd mostly be scavenging for raw materials/artifacts to recover though.

>>13665076
American thing.

Deathclaws are genetically altered Jackson Chameleons, to be used for war purposes.

>>13665069
LABOUR STRONG

>>13665080
Sold. I'll use that as the basis for the intro.

>>13665076
France, who else?

>>13665076
April 2052: The Resource Wars begin. Many smaller nations go bankrupt, and Europe, dependent on oil imports from the Middle East, responds to the Middle East's rising oil prices with military action. The long drawn-out war between the European Commonwealth and the Middle East begins.

2060: The Euro-Middle Eastern War ends as the oil fields in the Middle East run dry. There is no longer a goal in the conflict, and both sides are reduced almost to ruin.

The European Commonwealth dissolves into quarreling nation states, fighting over the remaining resources

February 2077: February: FEV Research is leaked to the world through an unknown source. Protests in many major cities and governments around the world, as well as accusations that the U.S. was responsible for the New Plague. FEV is seen as the threat it is, and serves only to fuel tensions. The governments of the world fear what the U.S. is up to. Speculating anything from trying to make a breed of super soldier, to trying to make Hitler's master race, they begin to panic.

>>13665094

I'm a North Englandman, from Yorkshire. What I see possibly happening is this:

The Northern cities would have been FUCKED when the bombs fell, because a lot of American early warning systems are here in Yorkshire and would have been targetted first.

And there are no underground tunnels to hide in that I know of, beyond the mines. The Tories closed them in the late 20th Century. And they can't harbour many people, so there's a LOT of death and ghoulification.

Now, the North is pretty barren, lot of Ghouls in flat caps. But the southern infrastructure has recently set up a few industrial settlements to mine DELICIOUS COAL. This is a problem, because those mines? That's where the few living Northerners (and a lot of Ghouls) live. Some Northerners have been tempted with Southern money, Ghouls especially.

There'd be three factions up North. The industrialists, who want profit and are run by some old Tories from the South. The Unionists, labourers who have no problem mining but want treated fairly, mainly ghouls, led by some charismatic figure. And then there's the Natives, the mine-dwellers who want the South OFF THEIR DAMN LAWNS

>>13664828
>fallout: London
Jollyjack is that you?

>>13665108
so in europe there wouldn't be a unified bad government but more likely all kinds of small survivor governments all over with wacky rules and constant wars over territory even if its a irradiated mudpool


there prolly could be a lot of mutants to if some scientists got the news of the FEV and started to quickly create a virus with similar yet unique properties in case the americans would start to weaponize their shit

>>13665124
Ah but lad, you forgot. The mines were closed in 80's were they not? They could still be opened if not empty by now. Maybe the miners and their families lived in the mines in a sustainable habitat. I'm thinking that cave in Fallout 3 where only kids can live there only with more of a 1950's Labour/Liberal mentality in them.

>>13665076
Red Squirrels.

Some years after the bombs fell, a professor of genetics so devastated by the loss of his family, colleagues and life's work snaps. He sees a red squirrel being set upon by several greys and decides that even if he's lost everything, he can at least aid in the plight of the slowly dissapearing rodent

Of course, things go hilariously wrong, the new squirrels breed like crazy, can digest almost anything and are nigh immune to disease. They're also four feet tall and have claws that can tear through power armour.

Westminster Cathedral is gone. No explanations. One day it just simply disappeared, and no one can figure out why. All that is left is a Cathedral-sized hole in the ground, littered with Russian pamphlets and a single "DISCOVER HAWAII" travel guide.

Portobello Road has been overrun by feral children, who call themselves the Danger Brigade and hate adults. Ironically, they have some of the best shops in London.

Hyde Park has been turned into a giant deathtrap by a group of renegade robots that wish to hunt the most dangerous game - MAN! Unfortunately for them, they have plungers for arms.

Trafalgar Square is relatively untouched and is peaceful, but for a very good reason: the pigeons have developed sentience, and work together to purge the unclean human scum who shooed them away from monuments for so long. They are worshiped by the Raspica cult, whose members flagellate themselves and chant "Embrace the White Goo!"

None of those mines are empty. Most old miners will tell you that's why they were pissed. THere is a SHITTON of coal down there but they want equal treatment to miners in places like Canada and Australia but will never get it . Go figure.

>>13665124

And the kicker? Some of the Natives, known as Minstrels because they tend to use coal as blackface and sing weird songs, They worship the Seam, a dark and eldritch abomination that lives somewhere under the earth, in the blackest pits imaginable. It whispers to them and leads them to food, water and shelter - in exchange for the odd blood sacrifice or two. It wants them to dig their settlements deeper, deeper, always deeper. It's implied that Margaret Thatcher KNEW about the existence of the Seam and closed down the mines to prevent the miners from accidentally unsealing some long-trapped evil.

OR the Minstrels have just gone fucking mad from generations inhaling coal dust and without natural light. You know, one or the other.

don't forget to include a couple of wackjobs who think the french are responsible for everything and are trying to find people to invade the frogs

>>13665124
>Ghouls in flat caps
FUND IT.

>>13665124

This is now Fallout: Tetley Brewing

has australia ever been mentioned in the fallout canon whatsoever?
i mean the fluff of australia -now- is basically what the fallout world becomes, so i'd hate to see it after magical radiation mutations and FEV and such

Fuck me, someone should email the contents of this thread to Bethesda.

I want me a Fallout: London on PC.

This man is a kind of pawn shop/wandering merchant - he'll take anything you give him and give you WONGA back. Especially if you happen to find old mobile phones. Those net you tons of WONGA.

What does he want with all those mobile phones? Who knows.

Nothing's been said, i'd like to believe they barely noticed it. Seems like a pretty stereotypically Australian thing to do.

I'm surprised they haven't wiped out the entire city yet.

>>13665198
sounds about right, to be honest

How about some varied breeds of mutated dogs... maybe a dog-fighting circuit obsessed with breeding them for the most violent mutations with the most dangerous breed being some kind of massive Bulldog.

Needs to be themed around the royalty - the players themselves can choose to be royalist scum, apathetic, or communist revolutionaries.

Sniper duel inside the millennium dome/across the river Thames/the streets outside big ben.

>>13664928

Except the Crownland which they own pays for more than their share and then the tourism they bring in also pays for them.

The Crown isnt the money grubbers, that would be the lords and politicians. Royalty is rarely worth having , especially in the case of the Commonwealth.

Not saying they aren't evil but only Daily Mail reading idiots believe the monarchy leeches off the state when they infact fund it .

>>13665145
> Portobello Road has been overrun by feral children, who call themselves the Danger Brigade and hate adults.

Are British Kids also unkillable like the ones in the USA?

Why does everything have to be about the bloody royal family? Britain is probably the single most apathetic nation in the world with regards to its royalty, and pretty much everything else, they're simply a figurehead+useful ambassadors and tourist attraction.

It'd be be more unusual to use the other stereotypical things of druids vs chavs vs the upper class toffs vs your mum vs castles vs Rolf Harris.

>>13665301

>Daily Mail
>Ultra right wing monarchist newspaper supporting British values

Mong. The monarchy is nothing but detrimental to the state.

The monarchy is a relic of an age of imperialism, genocide and oppression. Keeping them around is like having a statue to Adolf Hitler in Germany, they should be deposed at the very least

>>13665288
Nah, Brits could have an equivalent project or, more likely, MI5 had intel on the FEV project.

>>13665314

I don't think it's the Amerifags' fault that kids are unkillable. I read that, by British law, it's illegal to simulate the murder of a child.

Best meelee weapon in the game has to be a hopped up claymore. The state showed it off pre-war as the blade Jack Churchill carried when he captured his 42 germans.

>>13664828
No vaults in London. Not the experimental Vault-Tec vaults, anyway. They were a specifically American/Vault-Tec/Enclave project.

It doesn't mean that there can't be survival shelters. Big survival shelters, even. Some might say vaults.

But drop the "experiment" idea and "vaults, vaults everywhere!".

>Vault 30's experiment was to make half the population Chelsea fans, and the other half Arsenal fans.

>Everybody, dead within a year.

> More like dead within twelve hours.

>>13665351
We'll you can't kill kids in the US version as well.

Who needs gay mutant squirrels.

There are a shitload of reptiles around Britain.

Add in the airborne mutated FEV virus.

Now imagine Crystal Palace park.

"Clever girl..."

>>13665370

That's because they're the same version. It's the reason why they didn't release the game in India to avoid insulting Hindufags, and why they renamed morphine to avoid making Ausfailians cream themselves.

>>13665392

I think we could do the "Red Squirrel vs Grey Squirrel" thing, but this time they're TEN FEET TALL

Also, we have adders. Make them huge. But not venemous.

>>13665427
I'm okay with dog-sized raptor-like packs of squirrels.

But the deathclaw-niche should be reserved for dinosaur-crocodiles, and dinosaur-turtles, and giant snakes.

>>13665427
It wouldn't be an adder then. It would just be a big snake.

Also I'm trying to think of large predators you guys have over there. Do you Brits have bears anywhere still?

>>13665361
I had been planning a UK Fallout campaign with my group at one point, and we ended up placing vaults (renamed Crypts, overseers are Cryptkeepers) beneath historic castles and whatnot. The actual well-protected areas of the crypts would be strictly for the monarchy, the upper class, and officers, while the upper levels with a bit less radiation shielding than warranted would be for saving the lower classes (well, not too low, mind).

The end result by the time of the campaign is that you have a number of villages built up around crumbling castles where most of the serfs are ghouls or at least mildly mutated, serving inbred upper class twits who were still holed up in the crypts.

Bobbybots -
Introduced to the British police force years before the war "Bobbybots" as they came to be known were strict, emotionless enforcers of the law to the letter. And Law? Law never changes. At least in the eyes of the surviving Bobbybots who still patrol the streets of London enforcing laws that haven't really applied in 100's of years. The Bobbybots answer only to the Law, specifically the Pre-War Law... Post-War factions are not acknowledged as legitamate law-makers. Ridiculous and ancient laws that simply never got officially repealed are given more weight than the words of the Queen, who the Bobbybots do not even recognise as a human being any more.

Bobbybots were of a bipedal design fasioned in the shape of the typical British Policeman... though they were far too angular, bulky and MADE OF METAL to ever be mistaken for a real person. Often they would have crude metal fascimle's of facial hair such as mutton-chops or a mustache in order to make them appear less threatening.

They were originally just armed with baton and tazer, however in their quest to better protect the LAW the Bobbybots have proven quite adaptive at least in terms of tactics and arsenal... A Bobbybot can undergo personal repairs and upgrades if it finds appropriate materials and most have now integrated a wide variety of scavanged weaponry into their arsenal.

>>13665427
Nah. Make them shorter... like pygmy humans, give them guerilla tactics and boost up their intelligence so that they can attempt crude communication... Then the players have to decide wether to side with Red or Grey...

>>13665458

Best idea in this thread.

>>13665361
>But drop the "experiment" idea and "vaults, vaults everywhere!".

No. Because those ideas are fun. And fun>accuracy.

VaultTech Europe had their own projects, seperate from the American ones.

>>13665466
NOPE.

I vote for raptor Squirrels. That way you can play a British colonial hunter without sailing across the world.

Also digging the mutant-reptile-dinosaurs.

The works of Shakespeare are taken to be fact and his folio is worshipped as a holy book by a small cult who call themselves Avonites. They await the second coming of Macbeth (maybe, might be a more suitable character). They are directly rivalled by the Newtonians who worship the Principia Mathematica.

BBC Radio 1, 2, etc. needs to still be going because it's illegal for the BBC to not broadcast anything, so they keep it going to this day.

The Gherkin needs to be in there somewhere.

A fanatic Robin Hood wannabe needs to be lolloping around the streets of London robbing the rich and giving to the needy.

Don't let this threat die chaps!

>>13665458
OHGOD! Vicious unfeeling vigilante ROBO-JUDGE DREDD'S.

Tribals from Wales wearing sheep skins and wielding longbows.

Two factions of hooligans fighting each other even though none of them really remember what football actually is, apart from a reason to beat up the other guys.

Mole people police state in the underground metro system, except since this is the wacky post apocalyptic future, the metro system is way bigger then it is in our world.

The Queens army is fighting some other faction, parts of their frontline troops is a blackadder cameo.

>>13665486
I think I'd include both... with giant RAD SQUIRRELS being to the tribals like Behemoths are to regular Super-Mutants.

Just happens they think they are the most needy.

Parliamentarians vs Royalists

Has to happen. ROUNDHEADS VS CAVALIERS!!

Please, please have other areas of the UK have a little presence. Token Northern characters are fine! Just don't alienate the rest of the country.

>>13665486
BBC becomes a nation, based out of their London studios. They don't tax, they collect a license fee, and their heralds roam their lands, offering the '6 o'clock news' to anyone they meet. They worship The Doctor, who's regeneration they are awaiting.

>>13665263
What about us fascists? No choice for us?

>>13665486
Perhaps the BBC were to be maintained or broadcasted by the bobbybots from earlier in the thread, due to it being illegal to stop broadcasting?

GET THE FUCK BACK TO BEIN' FUCKIN' DEAD, ENCLAVE SCUM!

>>13665518
Their holed up in the Daily Mail offices, raging at foreigners and mutants, taking pot shots at anyone nearby

>>13665518
Yes.

Ironically, you worship Winston Churchill, a man who proved he was stronger then Hitler and thus more worthy to lead. You Goosestep down the ruined streets, arm raised in a 'V-sign' Salute and wearing uniform suits and bowler hats.

>>13665536
Oh fuck man, you're killing me here.

>>13665497
The Welsh Tribals ride heavilly mutated sheep and worship a deity they call the Rad Dragon or Ymbelyddraeg.

As soon as I saw this thread this came to mind. It could be a logic puzzle that you have to beat at some point.


Also, the 221b Baker Street is a good idea, how about we throw in the Demon Barber as well?

Ghouls in the larger cities aren't treated poorly. Rather, they treat smooth-skins poorly (in some cases, we'll say the previous higher-classed British folk). In most cases, they still enjoy their simple lives with tea. Most of the quests in these areas would just be chores for the PC's, however, there are rare exceptions. Just think of them as people similar to Shaun of the Dead (as pointed out earlier) that surely the war was a tragedy, but all is well and back to normal now (mostly).

These ghouls do rather dangerous things day to day, such as defending their small towns from outside interference (as it has become dastardly savage outside), yet the overall mood of the ghouls is strikingly similar to the Flying Circus gags, partly because the ghouls have gone insane from doing their normal routine for over 200 years. The only thing *keeping* them sane is being very silly.

>>13665518
They all got eaten by a crocodilosaurus rex after trying to point out that mutant creatures with their heritage from Islamitic countries should still be considered foreign creatures by their heritage, and not british creatures based on the fact that they mutated on british soil.

>>13665458
>Ridiculous and ancient laws that simply never got officially repealed are given more weight than the words of the Queen, who the Bobbybots do not even recognise as a human being any more.
While the idea is good in outset, WRONG.

All law is derived from the authority of the monarchy. It is inherent in the very roots of the English legal system. You can no more do away with the position of the queen than the very land itself.

It's why the reigning monarch can't be prosecuted for murder; there is no higher authority to appeal to, and she can't bloody well judge herself.

>>13665528
Same reason their American counterparts did... Research.

>>13665546
The Grauniads are locked in a constant struggle with them. Idealists, they welcome anyone into their camp. However, they are much better at talking than they are at getting anything done, mostly limiting themselves to elaborately worded but poorly spelled propaganda

>crocodilosaurus rex

Motherfuckers. Imagine, you strolling around the British countryside... suddenly, a battle of the titans.

A crocodilosaurus rex and a mutant elephant locked in deadly combat!

>>13665563
Which would be a problem if the Bobbybots recognised the queen AS the queen. They do not. The entity currently referring to itself has nothing at all to do with the real queen in the eyes of the Bobbybots

>>13665576
Best Random Encounter, all Random Encounters.

>>13665563
I think that's why he bothered to mention their attitude to the queen at all... because that would have been a problem but he wanted to state that, due to all the alterations the Queen has gone through since the war she no longer resembles what she once was enough for the Bobbies to recognise her as the queen.

If they recognised her then they'd have to obey her... which would make her even more like just another Eden/House.

>>13665576
Surely it'd be more likely to see that somewhere where those creatures live.

>>13665540

Or, far more likely, they sit in the ruins of a pub drinking canned irradiated lager thinking they're the master race. They follow a fat man with a lazy eye because he can get them to fights every so often

>>13665592
Maybe the key is in the lost pre-war crown jewels, which contain the IFF key to the bobbybots. Or is that too much like FO:NV?

>>13665599
Too much like New Vegas, definately... but i'm against including the Ancient Queen-Brain for that reason as well...

Though... now i've written words "Ancient Queen-Brain" I'm finding it a little harder to resist.

Stick the Triffids in there somewhere. Mutant plants that scuttle around in packs, hunting and eating people. Or maybe they're the result of British bioweapon research, as was suggested in the original novel. When the bombs fell they broke containment, and have been plaguing the entirety of the British Isles ever since.

>>13664928
>>They're bigoted parasites living off our tax money, and the only reason we keep them around is down to tourism

>13664939
>You call them parasites, yet you then acknowledge they bring in tourists? Cognitive Dissonance much?

This Eiffel tower is nice but my visit to Paris was ruined by the lack of a Monarchy.

>>13664883
England would buy some on license, call them something different, paint them green and insist that they had invented the idea and built them themselves.

>>13665615
How about if it was necessary to recreate the coronation ceremony? So they would need crown jewels, archbishops, some of the traditional Officers of state - which would mean persuading various goulified Peers to play along, finding an acceptable set of coronation robes, rediscovering the lost Mitre of Canterbury...
More about the tradition than the technology

>>13665643
Or they'd manage to "acquire" plans via awesome intel shenanigans and then the shittiness of Britain in terms of funding and maintaining projects would kick in and we'd end up with a shitload of unfinished vaults. The only finished ones could be ones that use an already existing underground infrastructure... so maybe two in London and one in whatever other cities have something vast and interesting underground... Like Edinburgh's Vaults.

>>13665657
Seems like a lot of trouble to go to to sway a few rogue robots.

Don't forget the British Broadcasting Enclave. If anyone remembers the Capital Wasteland radio threads of a few years ago, it came up then. Can't find it in the Sup/tg/ archive though. It was basically BBC Radio 4, but with more ghouls and scavenging for old episodes of Just A Minute.

I demand a weapon based on propelling those metal Big Ben statues into people's faces at dangerously high speeds.
Those things are heavy, pointy and common like dirt in the hills...

The main thing I got out of this thread is that there should be two factions - Monarchists and anti Monarchists.

The monarchy should still exist, but Fallout-ised. The setting should be ridiculous, fun but still dark.

>>13665705
It would give them the power to make a new law. Maybe it would also allow access to a pre-war technology stash or royal bunker that would allow a re-establishment of the Crown nationwide
Would allow a proper Royalists vs Republican race to secure it

>>13665707
There was also one in North Wales, I think Towyn? Wherever that is. It talked about flooded marshes, small towns and ships coming in along the coast.

Super Mutant colonists. They have a patched up cruise ship with sails and masts bolted on everywhere. Their leader thinks he's looking for the promised land.

The BoS analogue should be University holdouts that exist like the AdMech does in the Imperium. While the monarchy rules, they operate as a faction independently underneath the old universities, which have been fortified. The university faction, while technically under the Monarchy, has a large number of anti-monarchy sympathisers and secretly funds that faction.

Their militant arm wears power armour (different to the monarchy's forces - which would be the remnants of the army) and serves to protect the universities.

Again, like the AdMech and the Skitarii. In the Imperium, but with their own forces. They should not be presented as retextured versions of the monarchists units.

Monarchists would have power armoured SAS/SBS, who compete with each other. The anti monarchists are supplied by the universities, who are essentially fighting a proxy war with the monarchy for control of the island.

The north should be like anon said, with the mines and such. The Seam as a god worshipped by the miners is beautiful. The whole Thatcher myth is also gold.

>>13665769

What about those ghouls that launched into space in New Vegas crashland in England, and mistake it for the promised land?

>>13665792
IIRC they returned to Novac. In the ending if you help them they save the town.

Needs more B.U.F

>>13665839
this COULD work, but you'd need to be careful how you impliment it

>>13665839
Mosleys brain in a jar?

>>This topic

I don't think that the monarchy would be an underground force in Fallout Britain. Don't forget, traditionally the right-wing in Britain hasn't been the party of business, it's been the landed party. There's a strong agricultural backbone to traditionalist forces in the UK, and so they might have survived WW3 relatively intact, as bombs fell on urban areas instead. Rather than scrabbling around for riches in the ruins of the cities, they would probably be struggling to nurture life back into the irradiated soils, much like Project Purity in Fallout 3.

>>13665773
>>13665150

One day in a
One day in a nuclear age
They may understand our rage
They build machines that they can't control
And bury the waste in a great big hole
Power was to become cheap and clean
Grimy faces were never seen
But deadly for twelve thousand years is carbon fourteen
We work the black seam together

>>13665883
Not any more, the Conservatives are firmly business and trade now. We're heavily industrialized remember. But since this is all 1950s styled and exaggerated national stereotypes, it makes sense to have a powerful monarchist faction.

Did you know that Britain used to have a genuine space programme? It's true. We even fired some orbital rockets.

The project collapsed in 1974 because thirty years of Keynesian socialism shitting up the economy meant that there was no money left in the kitty, but the rocket test bunkers are still dotted around the Isle of Wight.

Maybe there can be a group of people based there, trying to build a genuine space rocket to 'slip thye surly bonds of earth' and escape obliterated Earth for a new life amongst the stars. You can retrieve metal and technology for them, and watch the rocket gradually inch its way skywards towards completion. They could be genuine scientists or quasi-cultist kooks according to taste.

>>13665933

Genuine space programme? You're having me on.

We'll have pseudo-scottish highlanders, rite?

Rite?

>>13665933

Archived to preserve all the awesome ideas.

>>13665951

Nope.

Forget vaults. Giant Anderson shelters all over the place.

No vaults in Europe

SPOILER: In fact none of Europe got nuked, only US and China.

>>13666006

Nope.jpg

There was a nuclear war between the European Commonwealth and Middle East, so yeah. Also environmental effects are pretty much global even in Fallout, so... yeah. Shit and radiation everywhere.

Anyway awesome thread there guys. I love you.

>>13665910

Well, the Conservatives are irrelevant to this scenario, really. We still do have a genuine gentry and peerage - I work for the Chatsworth Estate, and the Duke practically half of Derbyshire! I can see such people reassuming their authority when urban authority is destroyed.

>>13666006
Europe nuked both and lied about the resource wars.
Cue a new age of European Colonialism

>>13666024
nah

>>13665996

Wow, I had no idea.

>>13666026
More likely their homes would be attacked by raiders.

>>13666087

Breaking out all of the old hunting gear and helping fortify and defend a dilapidated manor from raiders and packs of deranged city folk? Sounds like fun.

>>13666122
You know, depending on their prewar background, those city folk might have guns too...
But yeah. Your average lord could end up with a situation like Lockheart's in Point Lookout really easily, depending on how desperate/determined/well-armed the raiders turn out to be. Or not.

For British post-apocalypse roleplaying in the same sort of period, I'd definitely check out Hot War. Obviously, Hot War is a bit darker and more serious than Fallout, but it'd definitely work as inspiration.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GSX1S4JJ

Also, it's worth bearing in mind that, in Fallout, culture pretty much stagnated in the sort of 50's period, if I remember correctly. That ought to colour some of the ideas in this thread.

>>13664900
Well, aside from the Queen, they're not competent enough to be bad guys. Seriously, she's the only thing redeeming that family.

First and foremost: what kind of wildlife does Britain have now, pre-bombs? That will greatly help in determining what kinds of rad-critters are scuttling around after the bombs.

>>13666280
The Enclave post-Fallout 2 weren't exactly competent either, remember?

All these ideas sound smashing, OP.

Please tell me the game is via the internets so I can join.

>>13666280

Pigeons, foxes, wild cats/dogs, lot of bird life. Some pretty cool birds of prey, I guess. Lot of small mammals - mice, voles, hedgehogs etc. Owls? Deer, of course, in the forests. Other than tha

Honestly, our wildlife isn't that exiting. We've got a mild climate, so extreme evolution wasn't really needed. We don't really have any awesomely venemous insects or ridiculously vicious predators.

It might be cool to see some rad-Aurochs version of Brahmin, though. Big majestic fuck-off extinct hunter-bulls of yore, brought back from beyond by SCIENCE.

>>13666366
MUTATED GIANT OWLS.
Don't tell me those wouldn't be awesome.

>>13666366
Do you guys at least have Boar/Wild Pigs? because that's a start.

>>13666366
FUCKING RADBADGERS DIGGING UP MY BUNKERS

>>13666402
Apparently, we do! This is a total surprise to me.
>http://www.britishwildboar.org.uk/

>>13666366

Given the whole controversy over the foxhunting ban, it would be topical to feature men in red coats - fighting giant, hulking, snarling, slavering Mega-Vulps.

>>13666415
THIS!
RADGERS!
WE WOULD HAVE MOTHERFUCKING RADGERS!
THEY WOULD BE TERRIFYING!

Plus the already mentioned Squirrels and Ravens.

Faction: The Resurrectionists.
Fringe scientists who are holed up in an abandoned hospital and perform mass "surgeries" in an abandoned operating theater. Their leader, Mortimer Greyfriar; a ghoul (though due to his plague doctor-ish outfit, few can tell), was a pre-war quack doctor and plastic surgeon.

He and his fellow resurrection-men, mostly ghouls, scour the battlefields taking away the dead and the dying, salvaging their gibblets and organs and limbs and using them so as to try and replace their old flesh with "revigorating youth". Those they cannot salvage are thrown in the charnal pits; the old morgue, where they are feasted on by ferals.

Zombie plague doctors, experimental surgery, biochemical weaponry and scalpels, and WWI-WWII era plastic surgery grafts/

Mortimer's weapon should be an x-ray gun. Pure blasts of radiation.

>>13665897

I think this is a good idea. It would also make sense for a political regression of sorts, with a true feudalistic society evolving around this reconstruction effort.

IE your bottlecaps won't be all that useful.

>>13666591
*Mortimer blasts someone in the face with his X-Ray gun*
"AGH! What the... it was warm but... i'm still here."
"GIVE IT A FEW DAYS SUCKER!"
*Mortimer runs away with at least 20 bullet wounds in him*

>>13666373
So we got:

Pigs (Normal, Mutated)

Crow-Eagles (Probably the most dangerous given how smart corvids are, plus when you make then large they'd rape face.)

Radger (Mean as shit, mutated badger)

Squirrel (Apparently they're very unpleasant in the UK)

>>13666591
Reminds me somewhat of the Vahzilok in City of Heroes. Not that that's in any way a bad thing of course.

>>13666706
Drop-Owls: Invisible Owls that drop down on people in the woods and devour them. Watch for their pellets to identify danger areas.

Bobbybots: ctrl-f Bobbybots... not wildlife I know but deserve a mention

Megavulps: Vicious solitary predators. Country ones are huge and dangerous but kept under control by dedicated hunters. Urban ones are mangier, mostly considered to be pests.

Radram: Mounts of the Welsh tribals.

Should the Welsh themselves count as a form of mutated animal?

Death rabbits, Monty Python style

Maybe some mutated big cats - motherfucking Longleat will have a lot to answer for in Fallout UK

>>13666795
It's too bad you guys don't have anything like cougars running around. Definitely an underrated predator.

They're not going to get any more mutated than they already are

>implying britain would have vaults
>implying we wouldnt have somthing completely different
>implying britain didnt have the worlds first nuclear pwr plant

As a bonus-encounter, like the Knights of the Round Table in Fallout 2, there's a faction of Supermutants with Mohawks, singing The Clash songs, and generally being Punks.

The University forces, whilst strong, are plagued by infighting between the two major factions: The Cambridgian faction, who follow the leadership of Cambridge University, and the Oxfordians, who follow the leadership of the University of Oxford.

If anyone can get the words for a person from Cambridge and a person from Oxford right, I'd be thankful, because despite being a cambsfag, I have no idea what they are.

This looks like it needs a BUMP!

Fallout was set in the 50s... so the gangs should be like the Crays... also it was illegal to be gay.
Also, as we are an island we would be protected against most invasion threats from beasts allthough alternativly since we are closer to Russia... Royalists vs socialists with lots of public beheddings and commissars! Dont forget the bloody Irish gangs...

Didn't read the thread so far, but my two cents;

The London transit system should be going strong. If not the trains then at least the buses. Run by robots maybe, still doing their jobs since the Great War. As such the roads are clean and at least in terms of transit, everything still runs like a charm.

Only problem being, it takes pre-war money/tickets to use the transit system, which over such time are rare commodities.

Also, it can serve as the fast travel system for the game. Need to get somewhere? Head to a nearby bus stop or train station, and wait a few seconds-minutes for the bus or train. Sure there might be a raider attack during that time, but that won't stop the system.

And when it arrives you can hop on and give them the two-finger salute as a robot attendant ticket man keeps them off (without a ticket of course) and vehicle defenses kill them if they try to attack or shoot at it.

Wasn't there that whole dealio about King Arthur returning in times of great need?

Have him be one of the good companions you can get, intent to go around and restore order and justice to the English wasteland.

The main enemy should be MI6, or an insane branch of MI6 (evil James Bond with cloaking tech and shit), and there should be The Prisoner-esque mind games. Also, cameras, cameras everywhere.

>>13666993
>Fallout
>Set in the 50s
I don't think so Tim. It just has a lot of Raygun Gothic aesthetics and a whole lot of swing bands on the soundtrack.

>>13667074
Fallout is set in the future according to the fifties.

>>13667148
Er, no. It's mentioned specifically that only north America is stuck in the fifties.

>>13667166
At no point does it state that the others are not equally culturally mired.

This isn't directly thread related, but....

How about Fallout: Miskatonic? Lovecraftian New England gets bombed?

>>13667250

How is that different from NORMAL Lovecraftian New England? Instead of shoggoths and cultist everywhere, IRRADIATED shoggots and cultists?

>>13666939
Oxonian and Cantabrigian. Although we called your lot "Tabs", I'm not sure whether you've got a nick-name for us.

>>13667166

If it's not Fifties retro-futurism, what's the point of Fallout?

>>13667312

I agree. 50s Britain is a nice concept.

Although I pretty much slept through the lessons when we were going on about Britain, and I don't remember shit. Well, besides it being a shithole after the war, losing colonies, Churchill hatin' on us commies, the bomb and it was illegal to be gay.

>>13667029
Dat bus

>>13667072
Also this,1000x this

Faction: The Dover Street Boys

A faction of sinister Bertie Wooster-esque chaps, who don't mind having you around so long as you respect their superior position in society and don't make them feel stupid. They politick constantly, but rather than it being over actually important things, its over who marries whom and who wins at the next golf tournament. Their will is enforced(and controlled) by their valets, who are invariably more intelligent than they, and who have control of a large number of Bobby Bots

>Captcha: culture youui
Yes Captcha, the Boys will attempt to give you some culture.

>>13666939
I think you could expand it further, with the universities being some of the major strongholds in the UK.

Just look at some of the concrete monstrosities we built, Leeds and UEA for two examples

>>13666939

Oxfordites and Cambridgians

FEV could have come from a US Embassy that had plans to use it to force the brits onto the side of the states so they could soak a few nukes that would have been aimed at us.

This would have been one of the Enclave's more minor plans.

Keep those ideas coming. I love the radgers, megavulps and blood boars.

what kind of annoying insects does Britain have? I know radroaches for one, but what else?

>>13669287

Radflies.

Like gadflies.

Only rad.

>>13669287
Well, they're not all that common in urban areas, but shieldbugs would be pretty badass Fallout-ified..

Have the scots raiding down supermutent style...

Oh and chav's as your usual drugged out crazy faction

I seriously would want to see a Society of the Round Table, a society that has resurrected the chivalrous ways told in the Arthurian legend. I mean, what would be more awesome than medieval knights in shining, platemail-like power armor, wielding giant high-tech swords, doing heroic deeds and shit?

>>13669865

It'd be better if they didn't all bother with power armor and relied on leather at best. They'd probably save the more rare pieces of their armor for people who've proven they're more than capable in combat without it, ie their elites.

Gets more bang for their bottlecaps that way.

needs more mutant corgis

>>13666706
For the record, an alternate name for a flock of crows is a murder.

Murders of corvids.

the droogs gang

hedgehogs have grown to the size of small cattle, and are raised as such: prized for their meat and spines which make for great spear heads.

Wild hedgehogs are known for throwing themselves at attackers to impale them on their massive quills

Hedgehogs are cool. I'm trying to think of a good name for the UK radio equivalent of 3Dog.

And no, Captcha, Revolt Travalio is not a good name.

I love this thread.

I think the Blue-Box cultists should be a minor thing, but instead of the Mysterious Stranger, the Mysterious Doctor will pop in if you take a feat (I assume you'll have feats of some kind?) and help you with encounters or skill checks.

Also, Dragons. If you're going to have power-armor kinghts, either have hyper-mutated dragon creatures or mechanical menaces that the Knights have sworn to remove from the countryside.

>>13669287

I think Midges are a purely Scottish thing. But goddamn if they aren't annoying. Stay away from bodies of water during the Scottish summer if you value your skin.

>>13670707
The doctor. Only plays old copies of Doctor Who radio programs.

Too obvious?

What about an incomprehensible scottish drunkard. Plays great music, but when he reads the news you can only understand every third word.

>>13671152
For one station perhaps, that focuses on more folksy and Scot-Irish tunes. Another I imagine just an elegant English gentleman (Who, perhaps, ends up being a ghoul?) who plays much more classical and classy stuff.

Drunk Donny and Lord Chadford.

Revolt Travalio sounds pretty rad to me. No pun intended.

I already mentioned mutant-reptiles living in the former Zoos.

Like a tyrannosaur-like crocodile mutant, a ankylosaurus-like turtle mutant... err. Something like that? Perhaps they live due to "lolscience thing keeping everything in the neighbourhood warm? Perhaps some Poseidon energy test thing keeps beaming the London Zoo area tropical because for some reason the receiver beacon for the energy plant was destroyed, and the solar energy collection satellite keeps projecting the collected energy over the London Zoo?

>>13670240

Instead of a droog gang (too easy) just have a radio station called "the horrorshow" or something and have the people announcing on it sound like a droog.

>>13671628

THIS! Destroying a Raider base to "Singin' in the Rain" would be glorious

A noble ghoul gone insane over time asks the players to get him his favorite blend of tea that he can't get locally anymore. Players will have to go through mountains of obstacle to obtain the box/herbs to make it. Reward will be the recipe (Health potions/buffs) and massive amounts of caps
Would there still be a caps-based economy? I don't know if Nuka-Cola would have as much of a global reach.

I'm thinking the economy is based on Underground tokens, rather than caps.

>>13664828
well Europe had no vaults and according to established canon there hasn't been mention of vaults anywhere outside of the U.S.

so you could have ghouls... ghouls everywhere

>>13672134
I feel like a big thing with the fallout series is that the economies are based on something worthless in a modern sense. Caps make sense; underground tokens have modern value. I'd say keep with the soft drink top, just make it englified, I'm not familiar with popular beverages over there

>>13672184

Scones then.

Irradiated, calcified scone pieces, that function like pieces of eight.

>>13672184
no the idea is that currency is based on something that is no longer able to be easily produced

in the case of the U.S. bottle caps were limited but widespread and the facilities needed to make more bottle caps were not operational...

so long as the thing you are using is no longer able to be produced (so no counterfeiting possible) then it would work as currency

>>13672211
But then why not use modern money? Similar distribution and availability, damn near impossible to remake in the wastelands. It's a handwave for being a bit zanier. Underground tokens seem too mundane.

just use caps, have one of the major powers make their own currency and force it on everyone else

I can't remember if I found this near the front page or the back page so I'm going to bump it.

Trade should be based on beer.

BUMP
>>13673891
I like this
the big bad could be gathering up all the caps to destroy/store

A quest could be to disable the "retiring" factory or to raid a heavily guarded storage facility.

While I'm at it, as for the animals, you need to find things that occupy 3 general niches. Low Mid and High. for the low, I believe someone mentioned foxes as being quite prevalent, so you could have swarms of smaller but doggedly persistent foxes, to having wolf sized beasties that, I don't know, are stupid fast and and can jump or whatever. Another example of this could easily be less mutated birds.
For the Mid level things you could have the lizards and such, small but fast/poisonous komodos to giant ambushing super crocs. For the flyers, larger owls that are utterly undetectable until you get your eyes gouged out.
For the High level creatures you'll need something that really fits an apex predator, a few MASSIVE nigh-roc sized birds fit this but for the land based creatures, a FEV mutted beastie might be the best option, perhaps chimeras? like Croc-lions or bird-squids I don't know.

What the fuck are Vaults doing in BRITAIN? The Vault program was AMERICAN.

>>13670240
strange, extremely fashionable raider gangs would be fantastic.

Have them dress in themes like in the movie (a little bit like the Warriors now that I think about it...)

>>13675233
Britain could easily learn of the program/ have their own take on it.

You need the Tower of London held by the French, but nobody has been able to take it back from them as their taunting is far too powerful.

I wouldn't toss in supermutants since it's a stretch, but I think Vault-Tech should be involved. I think it'd make them even more sinister if they're misleading people from other nations.

Just bringing this back to the front to get more ideas.

What would be the British Equivalent of Nukacola/Sunset Sarsparilla?

Fun fact, in real world history, it was the UK's missile program that invented the idea of housing missiles under the ground in bunkers/vaults to keep the rocket fuel at the right temperature for lift off - allowing missiles to be fired much faster than previously allowed.

We also thought up the idea of satellite communication. Then the government decided there wasn't really a economic future in orbital missiles or satellite communications.

Yeah.

Nukacola would probably be sold over here as well... Coke's pretty much the dominant pop drink.

Could have some kind of fictional tea brand though.

>>13677367
Yeah, and your nuclear stockpile was secured by a bike chain and the launch code was something like 0000000.

>>13677364 VaultTec but they'd almost certainly be by whatever their European counterpart was.


Search your feelings, you know this to be true.

>>13677367
Britain is fantastic at espionage and ideas... but shit at long-term projects and funding... So we would have vaults but they'd all be half-finished pieces of shit save for a handful.
AS ALREADY DISCUSSED. >>13665689

>>13677376

That... I haven't heard anything about. Source?

As far as I know our nuclear stockpile is on untraceable nuclear submarines

Haven't read the whole thread, was just doing the whole, "complain about the government" thing.

>>13677377
BP is primarily Swedish/American now.

>>13677393
Sorry. Was primarilly annoyed at the guy you were responding to.

>>13677386
I think he's just making a joke because of those retarded laptop on train shenanigans.

>>13677386
Admittedly, it's from Wikipedia, but according to the article, the British nuclear weapons were secured by a bike lock until 1998.

>>13677402
Okay, I misread, the actual firing sequence was triggered by a pair of locks that were identical to a bike lock.

TL;DR: Disregard, I suck cocks.

why not just use teabags instead of caps?

>>13677421
Too fragile.

Also it would be awesome if the UK still used their real money. That would be a nice hommage to the fact they refused euros, and everything. France is fucking jealous of this.

GO ENGLAND.

>>13665347 The monarchy is a relic of an age of imperialism, genocide and oppression

You realize a lot of pretty excellent shit happened due to British Royalty, right?

.. I guess not. One of those "British Empire EVIL" types.

Players are hired by a Scottish faction to break into the Royal Mint and alter the equipment to print Scottish notes.

>>13677477
The fiends!

>>13666993 ..also it was illegal to be gay.

Does that mean Fallout 3 should have featured the US government performing mind control, biological weapons and STD experiments on it's own population - as well as actively tasking the FBI to hunt homosexuals and leftists?

.. tbh though it probably does feature most of them in the lore.

>>13677402 the British nuclear weapons were secured by a bike lock until 1998.

I think that's awesome.

"OY MATE, what's going on eer then?"

"I wus jus goin to lewk at the bombsnfings in the shed mista"

"Well... awl right, but don't you be going touching anything ya hear me?"

"yessir!"

The Scottish Pound is legal Tender in England.

>>13677548
Yes. Well done. And a lot of English shops with stupid staff complain or try to refuse if you pay with it, which has been a source for jokes for quite a while.

Location: London Zoo, home of mutated animals, held in place by a generator-run electric fence.
Problem: The Corvids are attacking the electric fence, looking for weak points. Why do they want the fence to fail? Because once the Mutated Lions and Elephants are freed, the people of the city will always live in fear.

>>13677548
I think that's the joke dude. Lots of shops refuse to accept them (or at least try to) mostly just due to ignorance. Its a regular source of both annoyance and jokes.

Oh. :<

>>13677571
I thought you were going to say "so there are plenty of corpses to scavenge" but... "so the people of the city will always live in fear" is... interesting...

It suggested that the Corvids have some kind of culture based around inspiring fear which could be somewhat awesome...

>>13677585
Quest: To Conquer Fear
Corvids delight in inspiring fear in the populace. Often they will go to elaborate efforts to terrify a group, sometimes not even bothering to follow this terrorisation up with an actual attack. Its suspected that this plays some role in their emerging culture, perhaps a rite of passage or a competition for selecting a leader. Maybe its just a game. Whatever the cause the settlement of Miltron have had enough. They want to turn the tables on the Corvids and to make them the ones cowering in terror for once and they need the players help to do it.

I think the house of commons should be deeply irradiated, but business should continue as usual. The MPs are all ghouls of course, and the backbenchers tend to get a bit more rowdy than they used to.

A number of MPs have long since gone feral, but most of them remain popular enough to win re-election. Indeed, many of the most well regarded ministers have done little but snarl and groan for the last four decades. Indeed, it's been such a successful political strategy that many of the younger members have considered emulating it for the sake of their careers.

Quest: The Ratemitz Effect
A scientists working for Cambridge has come across a formula that greatly increases the effectiveness of Rad-X and Radaway. That's the good news. The bad news is, the herbs required to synthesize the chemical are stored under lock and key in the Oxford University's Hydroponics Lab. PC's will have to find a way into Oxford to claim the medicinal plants without revealing who they work for.

Quest: How Much Is That Doggy
A group of people living near the Serpentine have decided to start breeding the Black Dogs with their own hounds and corgis to make stronger dogs. This would be a good thing, except they kidnap wanderers who have befriended a Black Dog, and threaten the beast with torture of their friend if they don't breed.
Mission: Either get the trust of the breeders and convince them to change their methods, or kill them and take their dogs.

Next Question: Where in London would it be a good place to put a slaver camp?

>>13678217
Castle, or like a row of brownstones. (the back yards being the slave pit.

Subways!
The subways are markets one of the few places that are cramped crowded and full of goods, and are relatively easy to find/protect. However, they are attacked with a semi-frequency as raiders and ferals are attracted to the gathering of humans.
As for protection, shopkeepers could have those sliding steel shutters that, at the barest hint of an alarm being raised, are slammed shut, leaving the PC to twist in the wind. As a matter of fact, this could play to the Karma system, if you're neutral, the shopkeepers don't give a fuck about you, good, and they let you scamper inside before shutting down, and if'n you're evil they, and their hired guns and turrets shoot on sight.
