It's based on H.P. Lovercraft's story <em>The Dunwich Horror</em>, as Felix Mordou points out.

1. Boston is in Massachusetts. For this, you lose 18 AmeriPoints.

2. The Commonwealth presumably refers to Commonwealth avenue. Not only is it the only street system in Boston that makes sense, but it's right across the river from MIT. That green zone in the middle might become agriculture, too.

Within 5 years of the bombing of Hiroshima Japan its population returned to its pre-WWII levels, after the bomb hit railroads were operational in two hours. The radiation from a bomb does no tstay for extremely long, According to www.atomicarchive.com radiation from bombs would last around 5 years. The reactors in fallout would leave radiation that lasts longer according to brainscape experts say that the radiation from Chernobyl may make the area uninhabitable for up to 20,000 years, While fallout has a large number of smaller reactors these would still leave radiation lasting a few hundred years and this is what would be dangerous in the fallout universe.

>Vault-tec presents: tomorrow's technology today!

>At Vault-Tec, we're more than just America's first choice in vault technology. Thanks to military science, we're also your first choice in personal defense. Say hello to VATS and say goodbye to any post-nuclear nuisance. Using advanced real-time tactical imagery, VATS scans the threat, pinpointing vulnerable areas, calculating success potential, and increasing strategic decisiveness. In other words, VATS lets you pause for a moment, and makes Mr. Scary go away.

Ignoring regular history and random "The Art of War" references, while the brotherhood seem to have been defeated to the point the war is considered "past tense" they fundamentally aren't out in the same way the enclave is. I'm pretty confident all examples of them "retreating" are followed by "to lost hills". This is also all only west coast. We don't know exactly how much territory is BoS owned, or how much the NCR took. The lone chapters we see or hear about like the Mojave chapter might just be cut off from the main BoS faction. Its also made clear that the NCR are spread very thin, and probably can't afford to tear the BoS out from their seat of power.

They weren't the same, Obsidian re-recorded every robot line for NV for some reason. I guess it was simply because they either couldn't replicate the voices Bethesda made or they didn't have access to the original voice actors.

According to this, the album for the World of Nat King Cole is a compilation album released in 2004-2005 featuring his original versions of the songs from Capitol Records.

Stan Kenton was the original backing orchestra for Nat King Cole's version of the song on Capitol Records.

Would you look at that

You're correct, Utah is between them.

The persians didn't have solid shields. They had wicker shields. As for a basic breakdown Greece was not united enough to fend off the massive Roman Legions. Also Greek doctrine was more static heavy shock troops where as Rome specialized in combined arms. https://prezi.com/yc5yjbxevbtv/ancient-greece-vs-ancient-rome-military-strategy/

Well, you can buy it from Bethesda's official store, but it is much cheaper to buy it off Amazon.

Depending on how deep that well is it might be free from contamination. But what about the sump pump? Usually there is something electrical that is pumping that water up.

Also can you access the pump (to fix if something happens to it, whether from EMP or simple malfunction) from your home or a bunker? Is it hand pumped? Is it the old fashioned bucket on a rope? Do you still have to treat it (the reservoir) every few years?

Essentially water never really “goes bad” but over time even plastic from water bottles can leech into it, same with radiation. Though if pipes run up to the surface the water In Those pipes can be irradiated, and then spread down. I highly encourage you to look into gamma radiation detectors, they can be pricey ($500-$?????) Here’s a cheaper one on amazon though I personally wouldn’t trust this one with my life or the lives of those I care about. https://www.amazon.com/Gamma-Radiation-Detector-Geiger-Counter/dp/B00XWCQ7E6

but they can literally save your life. Also look into potassium Iodide, it’s a gamma blocker though for it to be effective you must take it and allow some time for it to get into your system before you absorb a decent amount of gamma.

It doesn't surprise me at all, there are many books that have pioneered warfare and concepts that are used to this day. Clausewitz and On War alongside Sun Tzu's The Art of War are two of the most important examples that stay relevant to this day.

There's another wrinkle there with Caesar: Gaius Julius' works were enough for him because the tribes were really low tech. JES explained that they were unlike the Gauls the Romans fought against, as they had no real towns, no infrastructure, no mining, and so on and so forth.

It is a play on the Anarchist's Cookbook, but the Anarchist's Cookbook is not banned. Here it is on Amazon.

Be warned; it was written and edited by an edgy teenager and contains so much bad information it has been accused of being a FBI plant to make potential terrorists blow themselves up before they become a problem. Among other things, it claims you can get high by smoking banana peels and contains instructions to boil gasoline over an open flame.

Back in 2007 or so I was involved in an effort to compile a version with the bad information edited out or corrected. You may be able to find a .pdf of our edit floating around older forums under the title "the anarchest cookbook".

That particular bit is from the book "Chernobyl Notebook" by Grigoriy Medvedev. (Amazon) Kind of dry sometimes, but horribly fascinating.

Although in the genre, "Atomic Accidents" by James Mahaffey (Amazon) is a somewhat more engaging read, though isn't quite as powerful.

Both are written by nuclear engineers and are mostly apolitical.
