Template:Faction

Powder Gangers are packs of criminals from the eastern parts of the New California Republic.

History

Background

When NCR attempted to expand east, they needed railways to carry supplies to distant locations, especially places ripe for colonization. For this task, The New California Republic used criminals from their Black Canyon prison who were approaching the end of their sentences. Unfortunately, when NCR started to have financial problems, payments to the workers started coming up late or short. Eventually, the workers decided to take matters into their own hands, seizing the work stations and all the blasting powder they could find. They became powder gangs, blowing up any and all caravans and railways they came across^[1].

New Vegas

In the town of Goodsprings a powder gang member is first seen demanding Trudy at the Prospector Saloon to hand over Ringo, threatening to burn down the town. This member is Joe Cobb. If the player does not ally with the Powder Gangers then the player will be asked by Ringo to recruit Sunny Smiles. Once doing so, she tells him to try and recruit Trudy because a lot of people look up to her and if she joins then so will a lot of others. She then tells the player to talk to Easy Pete and Chet. Then Doc Mitchell. The player doesn't have to get Chet, Easy Pete or Doc Mitchell. He can return to Mitchell with two options: to take on the Powder Gangers or get ready to face them. Either way the player takes on the Powder Gangers and the result is: he is idolized in Goodsprings and hated by any Powder Ganger. Cheyenne, Sunny Smiles dog, is likely going to die in the battle. If Ringo survives he promises to repay you, he can later be found at the Crimson Caravan Company. In some cases, he will pay you immediately after the battle in Red Caravan dollars.

When the player heads to Primm, the NCR officers and troopers will send him to Hayes. Hayes will tell the player that some convicts escaped from the NCRCF (NCR Correctional Facility) and have killed guards in Primm that weren't able to escape. Since then they began ransacking the area. He tells them that they call themselves Powder Gangers because they've taken to using explosives meant to clear boulders as weapons. When the player approaches Johnson Nash, Nash gives the player hints that Deputy Beagle was keeping an eye on Benny but has been kidnapped by the Powder Gangers and is in Bison Steve prompting the player to go after him.
