The origins of the Appalachian chapter are closely tied to [[Taggerdy's Thunder|塔格蒂雷霆]], a US Army Ranger unit led by Lieutenant [[Elizabeth Taggerdy]]. Deployed to war games organized in [[Appalachia]] in October 2077, Taggerdy led the Thunder against a unit of United States Marines. As usual, Taggerdy planned for a hard and fast attack, hugging the edge of the exercise area and striking where the Marines were least expecting it. She never got the chance to execute that strategy, as the Thunders were surprised by the [[Great War]]. After first dismissing the attacks as part of the simulation, the nuclear warheads that struck Appalachia soon revealed that war came home.<ref>[[War Games]]</ref>
−
Prior to the [[Great War]], Lieutenant Elizabeth Taggerdy led a distinguished [[United States Armed Forces|U.S. Army]] Ranger unit that came to be nicknamed "[[Taggerdy's Thunder|塔格蒂雷霆]]," stationed in Appalachia. The unit survived the War, and was eventually contacted by an old acquaintance of Taggerdy's: Captain [[Roger Maxson]] who had been stationed at [[Mariposa Military Base]] in California. Maxson had seized control of a satellite communications system at the [[Lost Hills]] bunker, and was attempting to recruit surviving military personnel across the country into his newly-founded Brotherhood of Steel.<ref>https://twitter.com/Fallout/status/1052640333664833536</ref>
  
   
  +
With the chain of command in tatters and nothing but static on the radio, they attempted to raise any kind of ranking officer to receive new orders and move forward through the desolation of the nuclear war. What Taggerdy didn't expect to find on the radio bands was Captain [[Roger Maxson]], looking for someone in Appalachia. Although she was hesitant about speaking to a confessed traitor, her friendship made her decide to give Maxson a chance. The fact that the U.S. Army apparently disappeared in nuclear fire overnight played a key role in the decision.<Ref>[[Radio Log: Aug 29 2077]]</ref> Together with her unit, Taggerdy moved to [[Camp Venture]], an old survival training camp, where they spent the dark winter of 2077.<ref>[[Taggerdy's Journal: NOV 04 2077]]</ref> Soon after, she ordered the camp reactivated to fill out the ranks of the Thunder.<ref>[[Camp Venture terminal entries]]: "''It's been 29 days since Taggerdy ordered Camp Venture online to fill out our ranks, and I'm honored to report that we're fully operational. Had to improvise the regimen without any airborne component, but everything else has been adapted.<br/>''To ensure our survival, Taggerdy needs true soldiers. Not mercenaries, not weekend warriors, but cold-blooded killing machines bursting at the seams with efficiency, determination and grit. That's what I intend to give her - the best of the best.''"</ref> Due to the strict requirements posed by the drill master, only four recruits made it through to the end of training and became members of the Thunder. However, they were far from the only ones and soon recruits started appearing at the Camp in numbers, primarily former soldiers looking for a way out.<ref>[[Camp Venture terminal entries]]</ref>
−
Though Taggerdy professed some initial doubts about the organization, she ultimately accepted the invitation, reorganizing her unit into a chapter of the Brotherhood and [[Camp Venture|冒險營]]，挑選在地人加以訓練. As time went on, Maxson would continue communications with the chapter, relaying new orders and sermonizing on the importance of the Brotherhood's work.<ref>[[Preservation of technology]]</ref>

That way out presented itself when Captain [[Roger Maxson]] announced the foundation of the Brotherhood of Steel. Although Taggerdy was hesitant to accept a completely new system of ranks and ideas, believing that the military training and loyalty to commanding officers was enough to carry the day, she did not object, at first treating it as an order like any other.<ref>[[Formation of the Brotherhood of Steel]]</ref> Although Taggerdy was skeptical, Maxson outlined his plan to give her and her men a new identity as members of the Brotherhood, both as a way to return meaning to their lives and combat the overwhelming depression that threatened to take what few survivors made it through the nuclear fire and to immunize them to the authority of any politicians that might emerge from the Vaults (or in Appalachia's case, the [[Whitespring Congressional Bunker]]) and set fire to the world again. Taggerdy accepted the new orders without believing in them at first, but soon grew into her role.<ref>[[About the Brotherhood]]</ref>

Paladin Taggerdy was known for only recruiting from those who had military experience and found it difficult to coordinate with the other, more "civilian" factions in Appalachia.<ref>[[Fallout 76 loading screen hints]]</ref> This became apparent in their dealings with the Responders and [[Charleston]]: By October 2082, the Brotherhood appeared on the verge of conflict with the [[Responders]], as they requisitioned munitions while the [[Responders]] were trying to contain the [[Huntersville]] mutant threat.

The Brotherhood decided to expand south into the [[Cranberry Bog]], opting to seize the defunct Allegheny Asylum as their new base of operations.

The Brotherhood of Steel in Appalachia was initially limited to just [[Taggerdy's Thunder]] and auxiliary forces recruited at [[Camp Venture]] (later turned into full Rangers and members by the brutal training procedures). After joining the Brotherhood, they were folded into the existing [[Brotherhood of Steel hierarchy]], with one minor difference characteristic to the early years of the Brotherhood: Squires were adult members of the Brotherhood training to become full Knights.

  +
  +
Another difference is the emphasis on the military aspect of the organization. Taggerdy was famously distrustful of civilians, considering them to be weak links in the chain, and that attitude translated into their dealings with non-military factions across Appalachia, making cooperation difficult. The landmark battle of Huntsville and Maxson's Preservation of Technology speech that introduced a new mandate and elevated Scribes like [[Grant McNamara|Grant]] as equals of the Knights changed the internal organization of the faction, but not, unfortunately, the general attitude that prevented effective cooperation and confronting the [[scorchbeast]]s.

  +
Originally nothing more than a Rangers combat unit, Taggerdy's forces eventually exercised limited control of a number of strategic locations across [[Appalachia]], including [[Thunder Mountain power plant]], [[Camp Venture]], [[Fort Defiance]], and a network of air defense sites ringing the perimeter of the [[Cranberry Bog]]:

Like its parent organization in New California, the Appalachian Brotherhood of Steel was the most advanced faction in Appalachia, especially after the Enclave under [[Thomas Eckhart]] went extinct.

“"Taggerdy's Thunder" was a US Army Ranger unit led by Lieutenant Elizabeth Taggerdy. She continued to lead her troops - as a Paladin - after they all joined the Brotherhood of Steel.”— Fallout 76 loading screen

The Appalachian Brotherhood of Steel was a chapter of the Brotherhood of Steel that was founded by Paladin Elizabeth Taggerdy. By 2102, they had been wiped out by the Scorched.

背景

The origins of the Appalachian chapter are closely tied to 塔格蒂雷霆, a US Army Ranger unit led by Lieutenant Elizabeth Taggerdy. Deployed to war games organized in Appalachia in October 2077, Taggerdy led the Thunder against a unit of United States Marines. As usual, Taggerdy planned for a hard and fast attack, hugging the edge of the exercise area and striking where the Marines were least expecting it. She never got the chance to execute that strategy, as the Thunders were surprised by the Great War. After first dismissing the attacks as part of the simulation, the nuclear warheads that struck Appalachia soon revealed that war came home.[1]

With the chain of command in tatters and nothing but static on the radio, they attempted to raise any kind of ranking officer to receive new orders and move forward through the desolation of the nuclear war. What Taggerdy didn't expect to find on the radio bands was Captain Roger Maxson, looking for someone in Appalachia. Although she was hesitant about speaking to a confessed traitor, her friendship made her decide to give Maxson a chance. The fact that the U.S. Army apparently disappeared in nuclear fire overnight played a key role in the decision.[2] Together with her unit, Taggerdy moved to Camp Venture, an old survival training camp, where they spent the dark winter of 2077.[3] Soon after, she ordered the camp reactivated to fill out the ranks of the Thunder.[4] Due to the strict requirements posed by the drill master, only four recruits made it through to the end of training and became members of the Thunder. However, they were far from the only ones and soon recruits started appearing at the Camp in numbers, primarily former soldiers looking for a way out.[5]

兄弟會在佔據了雷霆山發電廠後，有了立足點和能源供給，接著與查爾斯頓緊急政府有了聯繫。組織擴大後更將阿利根尼精神病院改建為反抗要塞，作為指揮本部。[6]Some time after moving to their new base at Fort Defiance, the satellite communication with Maxson was lost, leaving the chapter fending for itself. That way out presented itself when Captain Roger Maxson announced the foundation of the Brotherhood of Steel. Although Taggerdy was hesitant to accept a completely new system of ranks and ideas, believing that the military training and loyalty to commanding officers was enough to carry the day, she did not object, at first treating it as an order like any other.[7] Although Taggerdy was skeptical, Maxson outlined his plan to give her and her men a new identity as members of the Brotherhood, both as a way to return meaning to their lives and combat the overwhelming depression that threatened to take what few survivors made it through the nuclear fire and to immunize them to the authority of any politicians that might emerge from the Vaults (or in Appalachia's case, the Whitespring Congressional Bunker) and set fire to the world again. Taggerdy accepted the new orders without believing in them at first, but soon grew into her role.[8]

Paladin Taggerdy was known for only recruiting from those who had military experience and found it difficult to coordinate with the other, more "civilian" factions in Appalachia.[9] This became apparent in their dealings with the Responders and Charleston: By October 2082, the Brotherhood appeared on the verge of conflict with the Responders, as they requisitioned munitions while the Responders were trying to contain the Huntersville mutant threat. Although they eventually acquiesced to the demands, it did the relations between the factions no favors.[10] However, the relations eventually normalized, especially since the Brotherhood had other problems (as did the Responders, due to the great Charleston flood in December 2082). The Brotherhood's numbers and new classes graduating from Camp Venture exhausted the available space at the survival camp, necessitating improvised measures. The Brotherhood decided to expand south into the Cranberry Bog, opting to seize the defunct Allegheny Asylum as their new base of operations. Although plagued by feral ghouls, the building was structurally sound and had a direct connection to the Thunder Mountain power plant via landlines, wrestled from the Free States by Taggerdy's troops.[11] Although the Asylum provided enough space to grow into, they soon encountered problems: scorchbeasts, first as unknown bats flying in from Watoga, easily scared away by miniguns. This was chalked up to Bog weirdness at first - a grave error.[12]

West of the mountains, the Brotherhood forged alliances. The Brotherhood and the Responders united together against the super mutants, fighting a bitter battle to contain the mutants that ultimately ended in a major victory.[13] The campaign ended in May 2086, marking the high point in Responder and Brotherhood relations, although it claimed many lives, including Squire De Silva and Paladin Swafford.[14][15] Congratulating them on their victory, Elder Maxson also announced a new mission for the Brotherhood: To act as preservationists, keeping the embers of civilization burning, so that the Brotherhood may become the catalyst for a new, better civilization in the future.[16]

The landmark battle of Huntsville and Maxson's Preservation of Technology speech that introduced a new mandate and elevated Scribes like Grant as equals of the Knights changed the internal organization of the faction, but not, unfortunately, the general attitude that prevented effective cooperation and confronting the scorchbeasts.

Territory

Originally nothing more than a Rangers combat unit, Taggerdy's forces eventually exercised limited control of a number of strategic locations across Appalachia, including Thunder Mountain power plant, Camp Venture, Fort Defiance, and a network of air defense sites ringing the perimeter of the Cranberry Bog:

  • Camp Venture: A survivalist camp that acted as the first permanent base of operations for Taggerdy and the Thunder. Later served as a training camp for Brotherhood recruits. Abandoned in the terminal stages of the war against the scorchbeasts.
  • Fort Defiance: Formerly the Allegheny Asylum, the Fort was established as the Brotherhood sought to expand its operations from Camp Venture. Although never fully cleared of ghouls leftover from the war, it became the nucleus of the Brotherhood's defense against the scorchbeasts.
  • Thunder Mountain power plant: Primary source of power for the Brotherhood forces in Appalachia, seized from the Free States. Last location to fall to the Scorched.
  • Firebase LT, Firebase Major, Forward Station Alpha, The Thorn, Firebase Hancock: Defense sites established along the perimeter of the Cranberry Bog.

Technology

主页面: Brotherhood of Steel#Technology

Like its parent organization in New California, the Appalachian Brotherhood of Steel was the most advanced faction in Appalachia, especially after the Enclave under Thomas Eckhart went extinct. It used standardized weapons and uniform, and most importantly, had access to a large number of T-51 power armor suits that were standard issue to ranking Knights, after completing their training at Camp Venture under Senior Knight Ted Wilson.[31] The Brotherhood used many conventional weapons such as the Minigun, Missile launcher, and even custom-modified Hunting rifles. However, they also had access to highly advanced pre-war weaponry, such as the Fat Man, Gatling laser and Laser gun. With the help of Ultracite, they even modified some of their laser weapons to do improved damage against creatures infected with the Scorched Plague. The Brotherhood also made use of a number of surviving Vertibirds to police the Cranberry Bog against the scorchbeasts,[32] and utilized numerous Automated surface to air missiles to combat the Scorched both in the air and on the ground. Augmenting their firepower was a broad array of research and recon tools provided by Lost Hills and Scribe Hailey Takano, including an Automated Research Program for analyzing scorchbeast DNA for weaknesses,[33] sonic scanning module for tracking down the echolocating monsters using their unique frequencies (which provided the intel necessary for Operation Touchdown),[34] and even tentative designs for a modified T-51 power armor utilizing ultracite to enhance its combat performance.[35]

Appearances

The Appalachian Brotherhood of Steel appears in Fallout 76.

    To ensure our survival, Taggerdy needs true soldiers. Not mercenaries, not weekend warriors, but cold-blooded killing machines bursting at the seams with efficiency, determination and grit. That's what I intend to give her - the best of the best."

    Fine Tanner, I'll tell my people to agree to Taggerdy's demand, sorry, "request" for munitions. But I'll not ask the Responders to be your messenger service, they are too busy dealing with those new mutants that've been appearing around Huntersville.
    I still don't understand why you have such a problem with helping those folks in the mountains, when the moment someone in uniform shows up you get your panties all in a bunch. You need to come to grips with the fact that the war is over. You can have your supplies, but you take em yourself.

    I was trading war stories with the guys on the roof last night. Then we saw the craziest thing. It was like some sort of bat flying in from Watoga, I guess. We thought there was nothing living over there, unless you count those murder bots.
    But the thing flew straight towards us. So we opened up with the miniguns and I think we literally scared the crap out of it.
    That was real, right? The Cranberry Bog's gotten so very, very strange."

    Lucia reports that the campaign against the Super Mutants in Huntersville has ended. If things go well, the alliance between the Brotherhood and Responders might finally be the beginning of a long-term security arrangement for the region.
    All of the patrols moving through the mountains have suppressed raider activity over the past few months. I've asked the girls to be more careful as well. No sense drawing any unwanted attention.
    The mission board has been relatively light, but Olivia has been taking far more than her share. She's rarely at home for more than a day or two at a time now. At first, I was glad she was becoming more dedicated to her work, but I'm starting to worry she's just using it as an excuse to avoid me."
