沙漠遊騎兵是一個活躍於加州東部、內華達地區的組織,不過在錫安峽谷以及亞利桑那地區也有他們出沒的蹤跡。
背景[]
這個組織從大戰前就已經存在,直到2271年他們加入NCR遊騎兵部隊。雖然只是一個小團體,但他們擁有相當數量的輕武器以及戰前書籍,這足以讓他們在廢土上活下去。在22世紀早期,他們在拉斯維加斯的廢墟上與一個部落幫派的首領起了衝突。從那之後,他們為了保護那些居住在各個城鎮的人們而與諸如白腿等部落、超級變種人等敵人接連交戰。隨後,他們在亞利桑那地區與凱撒軍團進行了接觸,並且毫無懸念地發生了戰鬥。面對凱撒軍團的大舉進攻,沙漠遊騎兵們的處境不容樂觀。幸好在2271年,新加州共和國的遊騎兵們也來到了莫哈維廢土。沙漠遊騎兵們與新加州共和國簽訂了《遊騎兵聯合宣言》,成為NCR遊騎兵部隊的一部分,以換取NCR對胡佛大壩以及內華達的保護。莫哈維前哨站的紀念碑和巨型雕像都是為了紀念這一歷史性的時刻。儘管整個組織已經被NCR吸收,但仍有不少人確信依然有一些沙漠遊騎兵遊蕩在廢土上,繼續着他們除暴安良懲強扶弱的事業。
Appearances[]
In Fallout, Tycho mentions that his grandfather was a Desert Ranger, and that his grandfather taught him and his father those survival skills.
In Fallout: New Vegas, there is a monument at the entrance of the "Mojave Outpost" that depicts a Desert Ranger and NCR Ranger shaking hands, representing the pact between the two groups. Veteran Rangers bear a nearly identical appearance to Desert Rangers, suggesting that many of those in their ranks could be former Desert Rangers.
In Honest Hearts, a suit of Desert Ranger combat armor can be found in Stone Bones Cave.
幕後[]
- 沙漠遊騎兵是向荒野遊俠致敬,這款深深影響Fallout的遊戲裏正是以沙漠遊騎兵為主角。
- Some background information about the Desert Rangers presented in this article comes from Jesse Heinig interviewed in the Fallout Bible 9, who designed Tycho of Fallout.
