Fiends

I was thinking about vault 3 and just thought of something. Whilst it's pretty obvious, if Michael Robinson had became overseer instead of George Stuart maybe vault 3 could've lasted a few more years, hell, maybe until New Vegas even begun. Michael seemed to have a more cautious view to the outside than George and Michelle so he would've probably taken the weapons located in the submerged storerooms. While even the guns might not have stopped the fiends for long, they definitely would've kept their distance. Also, this might just be me talking but maybe Michael could've given the party's that went outside with a radio stransmiter to show they had returned? Instead of just keeping the door open for everyone, probably 1 of the reasons the Fiends so easily got into Vault 3

If you had to join one of these factions (lorewise), which would you pick and why?

For the sake of Lore Discussion, assume these factions are alive and well.

Here are some factors for consideration:

• Faction Goals (Objectives, Activities)

• Faction Identity (Appearance, Hierarchy)

• Weapons, Armour and Equipment

• Resources

• Leadership

• Morals and Behaviour

• Reputation

..As well as anything else that you consider to be a reason to join.

On the one hand you have the Fiends, a band of psycho-addict raiders that terrorise the outskirts of New Vegas, led by Motor-Runner from the husk of Vault 3. They are highly unpredictable, as they have been known to both shoot-and-flee, and charge their enemies until they or the enemy lie dead.

On the other hand you have the Paradise Falls Slavers, led by Eulogy Jones, who patrol the Wastes capturing new slaves and selling them to the highest bidder from their market at Paradise Falls. They have been known to hide in communities like wolves among sheep, as well as procure high profile "VIPs" that have wronged them to live a life of servitude.

Top Questions For Debate:

• Which did you choose and why?

• Why didn't you choose the other one?

Not picking is still a valid answer, but does not meet the point of the discussion.
