Crimson Dragoon

Crimson Dragoons are elite members of the People's Liberation Army who appear in the Anchorage Reclamation simulation .
==Background==
Crimson Dragoons are an elite commando unit of the Chinese army, posted to the most sensitive locations. In the simulation depicting the Battle of Anchorage, they come equipped with Chinese stealth armor, rendering them invisible thanks to the Chinese mastery of stealth technology, and fight using Chinese officer's swords and various firearms. According to American intelligence, Crimson Dragoons are trained from birth.The Lone Wanderer: "Give me the latest on the Listening Post."Thomas Morgan: " Not only is it swarming with regular ground troops, but they've put their best guys in there as well, the Crimson Dragoons. "(Thomas Morgan's dialogue)
==Interactions with the player character==
===Interactions overview===
===Enemies===
* Crimson Dragoons level with the Lone Wanderer and are generally on par with a Brotherhood of Steel knight or paladin in terms of skill and durability. Their cloaking-field generating stealth armor allows them to pose a unique threat. With a few exceptions, most Crimson Dragoons will idle in sneak mode until the player character passes them, making them very difficult to detect at a glance. Once one's back is turned, they will attack.
;Local variations
* Crimson Dragoons armed with Chinese officer swords at the artillery base have enhanced speed and move twice as fast as regular humanoid non-player characters. They also have additional special behavior provided by script (DLC02ArtilleryBaseDragoonSCRIPT), which provides a number of unique features: If hit in combat, the Dragoon will reactivate stealth mode after 1.5 seconds. The script automatically applies the Stealth Boy effect and removes it, depending on whether the Dragoon is in that mode.
* Crimson Dragoon ambushing the player at the Listening Post are templated from Chinese soldiers or snipers, and are significantly weaker. They are neutral by default, and don't enter combat until the player either moves past them or attacks them. At this point, the script adds them to the hostile Chinese faction and maximizes their aggression to trigger the attack.
;Stealth mechanics
* If the player character spots one before they get ready to attack, V.A.T.S. cannot be used to fire shots because, as long as they remain in stealth, all parts of the body show 0% (except when using a grenade); meaning the only way to fire at them while in stealth is to fire the gun without V.A.T.S. However, V.A.T.S. can be used to pinpoint their location.
** If undetected but standing, V.A.T.S. will act normally and display targeting percentiles.

==Appearances==
Crimson Dragoons appear only in the Fallout 3 add-on Operation: Anchorage.
==Bugs==
* Sometimes, when using V.A.T.S. on Crimson Dragoons while they are in stealth mode, you may not be able to exit V.A.T.S. On the PC version, this can be solved using the console command.
* There is a chance that after killing a Crimson Dragoon, his corpse will not disappear. The corpse cannot be looted, and any allies will continue shooting at the corpse as if it were still alive.
