Bandobras Took

**Bandobras Took**, more commonly known as **Bullroarer**, was a Hobbit of the Shire and the hero of the Battle of Greenfields.

## Biography

Bandobras Took was the second son of Thain Isumbras III, and the great-great-grand-uncle of Bilbo Baggins. He was born in TA 2704. Bandobras was noteworthy among Hobbits for his exceptionally large stature, being four feet, five inches tall and able to ride a horse. He was the tallest Hobbit on record until the Ent-draughts taken by Meriadoc Brandybuck and Peregrin Took made them the tallest Hobbits in the history of the Shire.

Bandobras also gained fame for leading the Hobbits at the Battle of Greenfields in TA 2747 when goblins from Mount Gram in the Misty Mountains invaded the Northfarthing. Bandobras, it was said, charged the goblins' ranks with a wooden club, and knocked the goblin chieftain Golfimbul's head clean off, sending it sailing a hundred yards through the air and down a rabbit-hole, thus winning the battle and inventing the game of *Golf* at the same time.

From Bandobras were descended the North-tooks of Long Cleeve, where Peregrin Took's wife Diamond hailed from. He died in the year TA 2806.
Kaleb Ward

**Kaleb Ward** was a contestant on Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains.

A quiet figure in the game, Kaleb was taken out very swiftly when the tribes swapped back into the Heroes and the Villains due to his prior alliances alongside some resentment others had towards him from before the swap.

## Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains

At the beginning of the game, Kaleb had received a reality check with the others when the tribes were revealed to be mixed between the Heroes and the Villains and not be going against each other. When he got to the Azul Tribe, Michael immediately recruited him to be a member of the *Darlington Alliance* alongside himself, Elizabeth, and Bri. Kaleb would unfortunately lose the first immunity challenge due to the Azul Tribe not winning. Per his alliance's requests, Kaleb helped to get Dion out in the first tribal in a close 5-3 vote that saved his ally Elizabeth. The Azul Tribe would get lucky as they would win the next immunity challenge and his alliance would reign their control over the tribe.

When the swap would occur, Kaleb and Bri would be put back onto the Heroes Tribe alongside Cody, Kyle, Darius, Jake, and Bailey. While his tribe would get fortune at winning the next challenge, Kaleb and Bri would get their first taste of misfortune in the game as they would lose their ally Michael when the Villains took him out. When the Heroes Tribe lost the next immunity challenge, Kaleb attempted to swing the others to help him take out Bailey, but his luck ran out as Bri abandoned him immediately and he did not get much reciprocation for his plans from the others in his tribe. Kaleb would be taken out by a vote of 4-3, and he would become the fourth person voted out of the game and placed 13th out of 16th.

Kaleb's Votes

## Trivia

* Kaleb is the only non-returning player of the Heroes Tribe to not make the merge.
* Kaleb is the only male member of the *Darlington Alliance* to not make the merge in any season he was in.

AK-97 (Wasteland 2)

## AK-97

**AK-97** is a tier 5 assault rifle in *Wasteland 2*.

## Description

The grandchild of the venerable AK-47, this weapon has seen more global conflict than any other rifle in history. Reliable, deadly, and cool looking - the perfect combination.

## Background

Main article: AK-97Created in the image of the legendary AK-47, the AK-97 is the latest in the assault rifle line. It was created for the Comintern Combine nations of Europe and Africa, but saw large distribution throughout the world before the war. It is chambered for 7.62mm ammo and fires from a 30-round magazine. This highly-respected weapon is fairly commonplace.

## Characteristics

The weapon alerts enemies (generates noise) in a 52 unit radius.

The AK-97 is one of the top tier assault rifles in the game. If you can get it, keep it.

## Notes

* It appears the texture for the AK-47 and AK-97 got mixed up, as the supposedly older weapon has black furniture.
.45 Widow Maker

**.45 Widow Maker** is a tier 5 handgun in *Wasteland 2*.

Take the .38 revolver, increase its damage and armor penetration, change the caliber to .45 and switch the appearance to your classy Wild West themed six-shooter, and you get yourself a .45 Widow Maker. It's practically the same gun as the .38th, but better in every aspect, except only that it's chambered with more expensive and rare ammo. It'll be your primary handgun for the majority of the time spent in Los Angeles where you can acquire it almost right away.

Ambush

**Ambush** is a tactic available if positioning is good and you'd rather wait for the enemy to come to you, allowing you to create killboxes or greet knife-wielding madmen with a hail of bullets.

To set a Ranger to Ambush mode, click the Ambush button on the Combat HUD and end the Ranger's turn. The Action Point cost of an Ambush is the same as the weapon's standard attack cost. It is possible to take other actions before or after setting the Ranger to Ambush mode as long as it leaves enough Action Points to perform the Ambush.

Once in Ambush mode, the Ranger will attack the first enemy that comes within range. Ambush is not directional, meaning the Ranger will keep watch in all directions rather than just the one he or she is facing. Because Ambush is executed as soon as an enemy comes within range, at the longest range, it is best done with weapons that do not suffer from ranged penalties, such as pistols, assault rifles or sniper rifles. It is not too advisable to set up an ambush while wielding explosives or other heavy weapons, unless you planned it very carefully.

### Cover

Cover bonus is ignored while enemy is moving, so you can use ambush to obstruct their movement and to hit moving enemy without cover bonus.

We disabled a guarded terminal on the east side of the Western White House.
We took down a system regulating the internal temperatures of Reagan's statue and other important Gipper electronics.
We compromised an off-site terminal located south of the Reagan statue."

A Brief History of Time

**A Brief History of Time** is a skill book in *Wasteland 2*.

## Description

Never before has someone laid out the basics of quantum mechanics in such an understandable and approachable way. Reading Professor Hawking's descriptions of the universe might hone your analytical abilities.

## Location

* Cerritos: Received from the old farm woman for safely retrieving all cows from the Children.
Ammo bunker

* Original
* Remastered

The **ammo bunker** is one of the derelict remnants of the powerful military presence in Needles.

## Background

Another element of the military base in an old ammo bunker. It is cool and dark, with a heavy musty smell. Puddles of blood splash when the occasional visitor steps in.

The forbidding darkness of the military storage facility as well as the existence of volatile explosives deter people from visiting it. The rusting hulk of an M3 RATT can be found. Here also, a Servant of the Mushroom Cloud that was sent out to investigate the Bloodstaff murders, ironically, ended up being killed by it.

It is cool and dark in the Ammo Bunker. A heavy musty smell fills the ammo bunker. Puddles of blood splash when you step in them. You can easily tell that no one comes in here very often. The reinforced concrete walls are years old and look like they will stand forever.

## Gameplay

* There is a corpse here wearing a Ruby ring. This is important, so hold onto it.

* The shelves to the north all have some interesting pieces of ammo. The westernmost is too unstable to even try to use—it will detonate and damage you. The centre-east aisle is boobytrapped, requiring Bomb disarm skill to scavenge.

Angel Oracle

**Angel Oracle** is a location in *Wasteland 2*.

## Background

The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum was commissioned in 1921 as a memorial to veterans of World War I. Construction took just 16 months and the Coliseum opened in June 1923 as the largest stadium in Los Angeles, with a capacity of 75,000. For the Olympics of 1932 the stadium was extended upwards with two new tiers, expanding seating to 101,000. The Olympic cauldron torch that is now the signature of the great stadium was added for the Olympics. In 1968, the Coliseum was rededicated to veterans of all wars.

The Coliseum was again part of the Olympics in 1984. For that, a pair of life-sized bronze statues of male and female athletes atop a 20 thousand pound frame formed the Olympic Gateway. From its very earliest days, the Coliseum has served as the home field for the University of Southern California Trojans football team, who played their first game there on October 6, 1923, beating Pomona College 23-7. This opening match for a crowd of 12 thousand was a modest beginning for a stadium and team that would build one of the richest histories in college football.

Additionally, countless historic sporting events have taken place within the Coliseum's venerable walls, including the aforementioned two Olympics, but also two Super Bowls (I and VII) and the 1959 World Series. The Coliseum also hosted famous events and concerts such as Nelson Mandela's triumphant return to the United States, Pope John Paul II's first Papal Mass in 1987, or Bruce Springsteen's record five sold out nights with a total attendance of 322,000 in 1985.

The Coliseum weathered the Great War of 1995 intact, with only minor structural damage. In the 21st century, it was settled by the Mannerites, who turned it into the largest and most prosperous settlement in the Los Angeles wetlands. Where Rodia is the jewel, the Oracle is definitely the crown. It was founded decades ago by the first Mr Manners and by 2102 boasts its own water supply, extensive agriculture, power (provided by solar collectors placed on derelict tribunes), and accommodations for both Mannerites and Robbinsons who inhabit it.

Angry Men

**Angry Men** was a gang of leather jerks in Damonta, which managed to wipe itself out just before the invasion of robots, apparently in a vicious gang spat over drugs. Each jerk had a small, matching patch on the front of their jacket saying "Angry Man" and a large on their back, bearing their name, and they ran their operations out of the Fly-By Nightclub.

## Roster

* Miroslav
* Silencer
* Tagaziel
* Sander
* Per
* Korin
* Roshambo, riddled with laser fire
* Odin, body has been smashed, the floor around it splintered and cracked from a tremendous force
* Thomas, the bartender, the smoking hole in his chest tells you that the robots have been here
* Briosafreak, broken by something as he was making a break for the exit
* Wooz, an artist who spent time detailing his patches, only to wind up dead and have them soak up his blood

## Behind the scenes

* Every member of the Angry Men is a reference to a member of the No Mutants Allowed message boards, and particularly the Order community operating on them. They are primarily moderators and admins, who played an important role in the community, and were immortalized during the Kickstarter campaign. This includes the local bureaucat.
AH-6503 attack helicopter

Considered the ultimate weapon, the **AH-6503 Attack Helicopter** was a new addition to the US Army conventional arsenal, armed with enough weapons to level two villages without having to return to base for refueling and rearming. This system is augmented by an automated defense system that retaliates against any threats to the vehicle to the full extent of the AH-6503's firepower.

The craft has two engines powering the rotor. The pilot's seat is locked forward when not used in order to prevent any unauthorized or unqualified personnel from using it.

## Appearances

The Attack Helicopter appears in the Guardian Citadel in Wasteland and can be used to reach several locations in the game world, including Base Cochise, where it sweeps the outside clear of robots. Its designation is mentioned in a fake paragraph. In the *Remastered* version, the helicopter uses a recycled UH-1 Huey model from *Wasteland 2*.

## References

1. ↑ Paragraphs#19: *"The screen flashes to life with Capt. Phil Thomas's personnel file, Aside from test scores and other nonsense you read, "Capt. Thomas's performance in the village strafing runs was admirable. The AH-6503 attack helicopter performed at the height of technical specs and destroyed two small Mexican villages before having to return to base and reload. The AH-6503 is the ultimate weapon.""*
Antitoxin

**Antitoxin** is a catch-all name for some chemical or item which counteracts a toxin in the body.

## Overview

Antitoxin is of limited use in the game: its only use is to cure Mad Dog Fargo and Metal Maniac who are found in Darwin Village.

It can be made in the Lab in Darwin Village with a piece of fruit and some chemicals.

Arapaho Caravan

**Arapaho Caravan** is a location in *Wasteland 3*.

## Background

A wrecked caravan in the middle of a sleepy suburban street. The trucks have been shot and smashed up and looted. What remains of Arapaho Convoy 44 is a sorry sight.

## Points of interest

* This is a small, compact area. The central street is occupied by the wrecked caravan, with Scar Collectors swarming over the site. They are heavily armored and very dangerous, especially for a team fresh out of Colorado Springs. You can tip the scales in your favor by sneaking around and getting the drop on them through the door immediately by the area you're in. You need Lockpick 4 to access the locked door, where you'll be able to save Georgia Overdrive with a suture kit from bleeding out and eventually get the option to shut down all of the Scar Collectors' turrets by disabling the generator with Mechanics 3. Then you can fight them a bit more fairly - and even the odds even more if you bring the Kodiak to bear.
* Other than that, the area is a looters heaven. You can search the northern part of the area for a dead Arapaho with the Murdercross Helmet and access the basement with Lockpick 5. The stash has a collectible tape and the Explosives skill book.
* After the fight, you can help Shotgun with an injury kit and with Kiss-Ass 5 you can convince Drive-Train to give you 10 repair kits.

## NPCs

* Georgia Overdrive
* Drive-Train
* Shotgun

## Enemies

### If decided to save the caravan first during Heads or Tails

>
>

## Tips

* Aptitude less than 16 does not provide any benefit.
* You don't need to have Aptitude above 25 as all Active Skills will already be maxed out.

## Interesting facts

* The fact that Aptitude affects Active Skills seems a little strange, since in reality your abilities like picking locks are affected by intelligence
Aidian Bomositabo

**Aidian Bomositabo**, known as The **Chisel**, is a recruitable character found in the Atchison Camp.

## Background

In his own words, Chisel is the wasteland's most terrible warrior with a lifetime of terrifying accomplishments to his name. He repeatedly points out his history of terrible crimes and confronts the Rangers as they leave the Rail Nomads Camp asking if they are going to "arrest him". Taking him "into custody" effectively makes him a Ranger recruit and he becomes a member of their squad. While his talk of being a fearless killer is likely all bluster, his high strength and blunt weapons skills make him a valuable addition to the party.

As the acting security chief for Casey James, he takes care of protecting the territory of the Atchisons from Topekans and rail thieves. If the Ranger settle the blood feud, he will reveal that he feels useless now that the conflict between the two Rail Nomad factions has ended peacefully and that he is immensely grateful to be leaving with the Rangers as he is "tired of living in a yurt".

## Interactions

### Details

* Chisel is a hardy tribal bodyguard, becoming available after settling the tribal conflict between the Atchisons and Topekans.
* A capable close combat warrior, Chisel is built towards being a brawler or melee fighter rather than a ranged fighter, no matter what his portrait indicates.
* Chisel will often remark on the Rangers' combat prowess in battle. He will sometimes either compliment a landed hit or chastise the Rangers for a miss.

## Equipment

* Weapon: Crowbar
* Armor: Steel Plate Armor
* Consumable: Extra Strength Pain Relievers
* Other: Jar of pickles

## Notes and references

### References

1. ↑ Wasteland 2 :
**Chisel**: *Yeah, you know. For all my countless \*crimes\*. Why I bet you Rangers have a file on me a mile thick. I'm Aidian Bomositabo, known as "The \*Chisel\*." You musta heard of me. I'm the last of the hard men, you savvy?*

## Trivia

* Anna's portrait was initially set up wrong. In the original release of the game she was represented by the Mannerite portrait as shown below. The issue was corrected in the Director's Cut.
