Wheel of Fortune

Wheel of Fortune is a side quest in Fallout: New Vegas.
This quest is given by Logan, a prospector inside the storage room at Camp Searchlight. The storage room is in the church in the southwest of the camp. The Courier must hack the terminal (Average) and tell Logan where the suits are to get the quest.
==Quick walkthrough==
==Detailed walkthrough==
A group of mercenaries inside the NCR storage room are looking for radiation suits. After hacking the terminal (Average), the Courier is told to go to Nipton to look for the suits. Since Boxcars is the only remaining living resident, one must speak to him in order to be directed to the hidden supply cave north of Nipton. Here, the radiation suit package can be found behind a door with an Average lock. Upon returning the package to the mercenaries, one must raid the Searchlight police station to look for NCR materials. The parts needed are:
* One NCR 9mm submachine gun: Located in the right hand jail cell.
* One NCR 10mm pistol: On the desk located in the northwest corner of the office.
* Two NCR computer parts: In the office. In both the second and fifth desks from the left in the semi-circle of desks in the center of the office.
* Three NCR frag grenade: On the bottom, middle shelf on the east wall of the storage room.
* One NCR grenade rifle: On the stack of boxes next to the aforementioned shelves along the east wall of the storage room.
* Two NCR radio parts: In the office. In the third desk from the left in the semi-circle of 3 desks in the corner of the office. The second radio parts are found in the leftmost desk in the cluster of three desks in the northeast corner of the room.
After obtaining all of these parts and returning them to Logan, travel to the heavily irradiated Searchlight fire station, where a radscorpion queen will be encountered upon entry. After defeating her, travel to the upper level, where the search will continue for more NCR parts.
* Knock-Knock, a unique fire axe, can be located in the restroom on the left, in the firehall upstairs; second stall behind a skeleton to the left of toilet. Move the skeleton to find the named axe.
* A Sunset Sarsaparilla star bottle cap is located on the back table in the kitchen.
The parts in upper floor of the fire station are:
* One NCR 9mm submachine gun: Located on the shelves in the room with the Chief Fire Officer terminal.
* Two NCR frag grenade: On the shelves in the room with the Chief Fire Officer terminal. Same room as the 9mm submachine gun.
* Two NCR radio parts: On top of a small table in the room with the beds.
* Four NCR computer parts: Split between two duffle bags in the room with the beds.
* One NCR 10mm pistol: On top of a table in the kitchen.
After finding the listed supplies, return to Logan who will thank the player character and then attempts to kill them. When Logan is killed, the player character may take all the weapons found in their normal form.
==Quest stages==
==Notes==
* Even if all the ghouls in the area were killed before taking the quest, new feral ones will appear in the camp twice: upon leaving the storage room and heading to the police station, and upon leaving the police station and heading to the fire station. The camp turrets, if activated before leaving the storage room with the mercenaries, will take out most of the enemies.
* If one takes the NCR parts from Logan's corpse at the end of the quest, no weight is added to the player character's inventory despite what it says, but they will permanently be retained in their inventory. PC users can use console commands to remove them.

* If Logan gets killed by the radscorpion queen in the fire station, the quest will immediately end in neither failure nor success.
* Killing Logan or Boxcars prior to obtaining this quest will cause it to fail.
* After talking to Boxcars and before getting the suits, Logan can be killed with a silenced weapon while hidden in the supply room and the quest will be completed. The other people in the room will not turn hostile.
* If the quest cannot be completed due to a glitch, and the player character still needs the keys to the Searchlight fire and police stations, Logan can be killed for the keys. However, they cannot be pickpocketed, as they will not appear in his inventory.
* If the Courier is Vilified by the Powder Gangers, Boxcars will mention something about it, but will still talk to the player character as part of the quest.
==Behind the scenes==
* The quest name is based on the mythological concept of the "Wheel of Fortune," or Rota Fortunae. The basic concept is that the spinning of the wheel would lead to great misfortune or great success.
* Like many Fallout: New Vegas quests, the name is shared with a song, the 1951 standard "Wheel of Fortune," made famous by Kay Starr.
