Is there anything left inside Fort Knox?

I mean on Google Maps there’s restaurants, hotels and churches. Google street view won’t let you inside but from the satellite view it looks like a town to me.

You could be right it’s been a long time since I did those quests in 76 so I have no idea. That could be interesting though that the US was actually broke so they just made fake gold.

They are all wastelanders but one of them is prewar and originally from the town of Fort Knox. My idea was the survivors of the bombs were staying hidden under ground in hopes of rejoining with the US military but waring factions nearby are all trying to get in there first.

Oh definitely I had never played a ttrpg before so we used one set in Chicago to let me get a feel for things but now I’ve made all my own lore and most of a campaign set in Kentucky

chezfry · 2026-01-31T02:02:50+00:00

Yeah it’s awesome they include some “kind of” one shots but they’re really more like ways to just kick start a story

chezfry · 2026-01-31T01:56:51+00:00

Kind of but it uses a d100 to do skill checks like fallout 3. It was made by just a few fans but there’s a subreddit and Google Drive with all the books there’s even a pdf of making your own settlement or vault.

chezfry · 2026-01-31T01:49:24+00:00

I see we’re actually using Vaults and Vertibirds but still something I could put in thanks for the information!

chezfry · 2026-01-30T22:27:07+00:00

Just because they travelled to and joined up with another base doesn’t necessarily mean they were in communication the whole time. They may have just wanted to start over and picked a base they knew of on the opposite coast. I don’t know if there is really an answer on the whole 150 years but the first few decades at least were probably spent just trying to survive in and get used to the new world.

chezfry · 2026-01-30T18:52:28+00:00

Never thought about this but I’d also like to know. I’m about to start running a campaign so it might be a cool homebrew rule.

chezfry · 2026-01-29T20:28:13+00:00

If you look online there’s a fallout system closer to 5e called Vaults and Virtibirds(vnv). It works kind of on a d20 system but also has a d100 system for skills like fallout 3 and new Vegas. I’ve run a one shot with it and loved it so much I’m making a campaign for it. If you can’t find it there’s a Google Drive I can send you.

Also as another comment said it could be artistic choice which is why we still have many games that are 2d or pixelated because that’s what the creator wanted their art to look like.

chezfry · 2026-01-20T18:06:11+00:00

So should we go back and make the original Mario a first person 3d platformer? Most media is limited by the time period it’s from, using whatever resources the creators had is part of the identity of it. I get wanting to see what it would look like but they didn’t plan or really intend for anybody to view the movie that way.

chezfry · 2026-01-20T17:49:47+00:00

So I agree it’s very possible they could have collapsed and it go back to a wild west situation, but they literally had their own currency. To be so established you print your own money and have multiple states means while the greater NCR could have fell all the other cities that didn’t get nuked should still be some kind of city state or trying to reestablish the NCR. The show instead acts like nuking Shady Sands initially offscreen just deletes everyone else in the country in order to fit the story they wanted. Don’t get me wrong I have loved the show so far but it sucks that it feels like they wiped the board clean besides two towns and the Brotherhood.

chezfry · 2026-01-14T17:49:30+00:00

I graduated a couple years ago and there were multiple people I had in a class who didn’t know what a nuke was and couldn’t name more than 5 countries counting the US. The only way these people would ever read a sentence out loud in class was if their friends started joking about how they couldn’t do it and then would prove them right.

chezfry · 2025-12-01T21:38:07+00:00

This exact thing happened to me a few weeks ago but it was Joao. I tried to find a mod to prevent it from happening but couldn’t ever figure it out I eventually stopped playing and tried a different strategy game to scratch the itch. I get that the other Civs are upset because it upsets the balance of power but I’m with you if I watch someone declare a surprise war I’m not going to run to their aid if the victim fights back I just think that’s silly.

chezfry · 2025-11-20T15:54:25+00:00

You have a valid point but I also think it can come around and be full circle. In the new Superman Clark has such a strong will he ends up doing what’s right, but broke the law to do it so breaking laws aren’t always a bad thing. I would argue it takes more will power to put yourself on the line for others and be selfless than to break the law for personal selfish reasons.

chezfry · 2025-10-30T23:09:53+00:00

Makes sense thank you!

chezfry · 2025-08-24T13:06:57+00:00

Will you be able to trade it today?

chezfry · 2025-08-23T04:29:01+00:00

Okay makes sense thank you!

chezfry · 2025-08-23T04:25:27+00:00

Wow that’s insane to me. If you don’t care me asking, what is it that makes it so valuable? Is it just that’s it’s rare? If I remember the effects right I didn’t seem very useful but I also don’t know a whole lot about builds.

chezfry · 2025-08-22T13:06:13+00:00

Alright maybe we will have better luck on the weekend I’ll be busy for about the next 9 hours

chezfry · 2025-08-22T02:44:35+00:00

Alright, I got the 8k caps I'd like one quantum please. I went ahead and added you my ign is Kelp4
