Hoover Sabotage

The Hoover Sabotage DLC02testText terminal entries; Compromised terminal, Recall Last Transmission? was the attempted sabotage of the Hoover Dam undertaken by Chinese stealth operatives.
==Background==
Hoover Dam Sub-Level 1C was a top secret research laboratory, tasked with making genetically modified monstrosities to use against the Chinese. These horrible abominations would not only terrorize the enemy, but also completely wreck their ecosystems. The genetic mutations that would be created were specially designed to adapt to just about any ecology and take over, utterly wiping out anything else in its path. The Hoover Dam scientists made several specimens that grew to full size. However, shortly before the Great War started, a Chinese infiltration and sabotage team discovered the secret laboratory, and tried to destroy Hoover Dam so that the research could never be used against them.
Some of the Chinese stealth soldiers in Hei Gui stealth armor made it into Hoover Dam Sub-Level 1C, while others planted bombs in the main generator rooms. One of the bombs went off prematurely and alerted all of Hoover Dam, including the guards in S1C. The resulting chaos left many of the Chinese dead, the generators heavily damaged, and the laboratory compromised.
During the heated battle in S1C, several genetically altered creatures escaped into the halls. The guard in the guard post was ordered to leave and seal the exit hatch if ever such an emergency happened, and the guard followed orders well. A couple of Chinese stealth soldiers and four scientists were trapped in S1C after the hatch was sealed, doomed to either die at the hands or weapons of the enemy, be consumed by the escaped genetic creatures, or simply die of starvation.Hoover Dam design documents, page 25: "This was a top secret research laboratory in the pre-war days. Its main purpose was genetic experimentations for military exploitation; i.e. making horrible abominations to not only terrorize the enemy, but also completely wreck ecosystems. The genetic mutations that would be created were specially designed to adapt to just about any ecology and take over, utterly wiping out anything else in its path. The reason why Hoover Dam was chosen was because there were several creatures in the area that seemed to be results of genetic mutations. Certain areas of the Hoover Dam Lake seemed higher in radioactive isotopes than other areas, which might have been the reason for the mutations. However, no matter the reason, it was considered a good place to start and further the process with a secret lab. Using similar technology that the Master from FO1 eventually used for his twisted purposes (he stumbled across the research in top secret computer archives), scientists made several specimens that grew to full size. However, shortly before the big war started, a Chinese infiltration and sabotage team discovered the secret laboratory and tried to destroy Hoover Dam so the genetic work could never be used against them. Some of the Chinese stealth soldiers made it into S1C while others were planting bombs in the main generator rooms (now called the Scum Pits). One of the bombs went off prematurely and alerted all of Hoover Dam, including the guards in S1C. Things become cloudy in the reports due to the chaos that ensued, but suffice it to say that the Chinese were defeated, the generators were heavily damaged, and S1C was compromised. During the heated battle in S1C, several genetically altered creatures escaped into the halls. The guard in the guard post was ordered to leave and seal the exit hatch if ever such an emergency happened, and the guard followed orders well. A couple of Chinese stealth solders and four scientists were trapped in S1C after the hatch was sealed, doomed to either die at the hands, or weapons, of the enemy, be consumed by the escaped genetic creatures, or just die of starvation (let's face it, eating a genetic mutation is just gross – the meat is far too stringy). If the player ever makes it down here, he will find that the floor's integrity has been compromised. There is murky, green water that is about waist high all over the floor. The water comes from a broken wall and a hole in the floor. From that hole emerged mutated leeches and perhaps fish. Either way, these creatures turned out to be the food that has sustained the centaurs and floaters in SC1. Once the player kills all the beasties, the player will have access to a great science lab and a top secret central computer that has some info on hydroponics, history, etc. Lastly, the player can find the dead Chinese stealth soldiers and use the materials from their stealth armor to make his own stealth armor, if he's gots da skillz!"
The Chinese agents managed to escape with samples of the Limit-115 virus, better known as the "New Plague." They were tracked down in Denver, and the firefight resulted in the release of samples of the virus in a crowded public area.Boulder design document/2 Boulder design document/3 for Van Buren

Chinese stealth armor can be found inside Hoover Dam in Fallout: New Vegas.

The Hoover Dam Sabotage was to be mentioned in Van Buren. It was also mentioned on a cut terminal entry in the Fallout 3 add-on Operation: Anchorage.
