The Mojave Wasteland is a scorched stretch of America clinging to ruins of its past. Vegas Still flickers in the dark, a glowing oasis where power, greed, and survival intersect. All around it, factions clash: the New California Republic, bloated and bureaucratic; Caesar's Legion, brutal and archaic; and Mr. House, a ghost in the machine of New Vegas with plans of a better future. Others lurk in the shadows - tribes, raiders, robots, and relics of wars long finished but never truly over. 

Its been two years since the First Battle of Hoover Dam, where the NCR managed to push the Legion back over the Colorado river. They have since regained their strength. Caesar has begun knocking on the Mojave's door again, while House schemes to maintain his control of the area. Lawlessness and anarchy threaten smaller towns. 

Do you fight for freedom, or retribution? Are you a bringer of war, or peace? War is a way of life for the Legion, and a constant for the NCR. War is brewing within every second the Dam's engines tick, and war...war never changes.
