*As part of Murphy's diplomatic approach, the president sponsored the formation of a West Coast baseball league.

Already the Overseers, Steel Badgers, Trappers, and Lucky Strikes are organizing their first games, with a championship scheduled in Sac City. But shall we give this our official sponsorship?*

 id### Save the Flags, Begin Again

*We were not always enemies of the Republic. Once, we stood with Shady Sands against super mutants and raiders. Now comes word of a new foe to the East, a monster who would destroy all technology to make a peace. While there has been much blood on both sides, AllGood Murphy requests that we begin efforts to slowly rekindle a road towards a formal peace treaty. In exchange, he has offered to open the Brotherhood's old outpost in Shady Sands as an embassy, a place for us to discuss our grievances and disagreements freely.

Peace, after so long, may not be easy. But should we not try?*

 id### Great National Passtime!

*The sound of crowds fills the air of the Boneyard as a huge crowd of people trickly into the recently built New California Baseball Arena, eagerly anticipating the historic moment they were about to witness. After 200 years, baseball will finally return to California, with the inaugural match of the new league taking place in the home city of NCR president Allgood Murphy. A round of applause filled the stadium as the teams took to the field. The NCR’s own Roaring Bears, playing against the teams of NCR allies. As the teams settled into their positions, the crowd fell silent, tensely waiting for the starting siren to sound. With a blaring call, the game begins and the crowd roars as the first ball is hit*

 id### Down The Road

*Veronica stood by Elder McNamara's side as Ambassador Crocker finished drawing up the formal truce between the Mojave Brotherhood of Steel and the New California Republic.

"Now Mr... sorry, Elder, McNamara, just to have the verbal side concluded, as I'm finishing up the written side, you and your Brotherhood chapter, excluding one... 'Father Elijah', formally swear to establish peaceful relations, as well as an informal embassy, between the New California Republic?"
McNamara nodded. "I swear."
Crocker placed the documents inside his briefcase, extending his hand to the Elder's Power Armored hand. "I'm glad that we could resolve this, Moore would've had you all exterminated if I hadn't been here to clear things up!"

McNamara took the man's hand, gripping it, but not shaking it. "I suppose we should be grateful that this could be solved amicably then."
As Crocker left, Veronica looked towards McNamara. Beginning to speak, McNamara held up his hand.
"I know what you're to ask me, Veronica. And while I wish that you could stay with us in our newfound peace and hopeful prosperity with the New California Republic, I understand your wishes to find respite elsewhere. I have undertaken all necessary measures to ensure that, wherever you go, you are always welcome with the Brotherhood. Though you understand you are never able to return to our bunker in Hidden Valley."

Veronica nodded. Giving McNamara a firm nod of her head, she gave the Elder a brief salute. "Ad Victoriam, Elder."
The Elder returned her salute. "Ad Victoriam, Veronica Santangelo."

With that, Veronica took the few posessions she ever had while in the Brotherhood: A Power Fist, her robes, and a small photobook with Christine's photo inside.

After a period of time, she approached the Old Mormon Fort, and began to prepare her new life as a Follower of the Apocalypse.*

 id### A True Intellectual

*Veronica rushed into the Hidden Valley bunker, skipping the traditional password protocol and hurrying past various Scribes, Knights, and Paladins in a mad dash to Father Elijah's chambers.Elijah had been working on refining a new type of laser pistol, inspired by the work of a previous Head Scribe, but was having trouble calibrating the proper diode emission. Veronica had to duck when Elijah's latest failure came soaring past her, breaking into pieces on the metal doorframe.

"My apologies for intruding, Father Elijah, but I have news from my latest scouting report."
Elijah grunted in acknowledgement, still facing the worktable.
"...The New California Republic has recently elected a new President. One who has made peace with the Council and High Elders of Lost Hills. He is willing to help us with dealing with the Legion."

The fist of the aged Elder slammed the table, sending a loud clang through the room.
"The NCR are a bunch of uneducated toy soldiers playing pretend. The only reason that they made anything of themselves at all is because the world decided it needed another America to repeat its mistakes!"
Veronica lowered her head. She had anticipated this sort of response from Elijah. However, Elijah sighed, and began mulling about the room. This, she had not expected.
"Feh, if the NCR are truly willing to help, and they've fooled the foolish fools at Lost Hills... we do need supplies, manpower. Perhaps they could even give us back some of our armor and weapons..."

Elijah's pacing came to a sudden stop, turning to Veronica. "Look up, child, we'll never get anywhere fighting the Legion if we stare no higher than our feet."
Picking out a holodisk from a nearby file cabinet, Elijah began typing out a series of keystrokes on his Pip-Boy. After what felt like seconds, he handed it to Veronica.
"Take this holodisk to the highest NCR official you come across. I don't care if they're a 5 star general or the President himself. If they are going up against the Legion, who are we to say no?"*

 id### Look At This Codac

*President Allgood Murphy stood upon the dusty asphalt of what had once been the site of the NCR's biggest battle to date. The remnants of the Battle of Navarro had long since been cleared away by Kimball's administration, though Allgood had put a pause on what he considered to be the biggest examples of the prior administration's corruption. In his longcoat, he carried a special memento that would either make or break his intended visitor's resolve in the drastic suggestion he intended to propose to him. Before he could think any further, an NCR deuce coupe pulled up, styled in NCR military livery. Although the car was an open-top, Murphy needed to look no further than the paint to know who this car belonged to.

General Alexander Drummond stepped out of the coupe, taking care to avoid a direct gaze with the President. Looking out at the barren field, Drummond asked simply: "What had you bring me back here, Murphy?"
Murphy reached into his coat, pulling out a single thin parcel. "Open it." Drummond did so. Once open, the parcel revealed a small, carefully preserved, Codac R9000 photograph. The photograph itself was almost artesian in its quality, capturing a now-redacted date in the NCR's history, shortly before the historic Battle of Navarro itself. Drummond's impression of the photograph, though Murphy anticipated it to be unremarkable, was curious to him. "They never did manage to get my face pictured right."

The Codac depicted Drummond and a Brotherhood Knight, armored in T-51, standing in front of the then-new NCR flag, looking over a battalion of training Knights and Paladins, also armored in T-51 Power Armor. In the background, dozens of NCR troopers scattered about to and fro, preparing for the largest battle of the nation, and their own lives, at the time. Although the NCR's motorized capacity was low at the time, the NCR truck and planes flying over the field gave a significant impression of the coming battle.

Drummond gripped the edges of the photo. "Why are you showing me this? I thought I had the only copy, thanks to that damned photographer getting themselves killed trying to get their 'perfect shot'."

Murphy took a slight sigh. "Drummond, you've worked with the Brotherhood once before. This battle, your reputation, everything having to do with Navarro, would have never happened the way it did without your ability to work with them. Now, I'm not a religious man, but I am a very righteous man. And in my years of practice, I've come to learn the value of forgiveness. I don't know if your own positions on the Brotherhood are the same as they were 30 years ago, but we have the greatest Republic in the world, and I want to keep it great. But we also need to recognize that we've made mistakes. The war with the Brotherhood being one of our greatest mistakes. Now, if you don't agree with me, feel free to tear up that photo. But if you want to head or lead negotiations, work with them, help me to understand them, then please keep that photo intact. I won't force you to pick one or the other."*

 id### The Elder Goes Down with his Bunker

*Veronica watched as Elijah stared at the holographic projection of the NCR and Legion advances. While the NCR had been keeping the Mojave Brotherhood supplied with weapons, food, and armor, the only thing they could not supply was manpower.
This had resulted in the Mojave Brotherhood, while many missions had been successful in sabotaging Legion efforts, also losing just as many men and women, especially Paladins, to said sabotages.

Elijah furrowed his brow. He swatted away the holographic projections. "It's not enough. Even if we sent out all our Knights and Scribes, the Legion would still overwhelm us the moment they discover that this place isn't all sandstorms and empty ruins like they thought."
Veronica gazed at the surrounding crowd. She and Elijah had never been one for crowds, but in these dire circumstances, all they could do was sit, wait, and watch. Christine especially looked concerned, though she was far away from the center of attention, regulating herself to a corner of the room.

Elijah gazed up at the attracted Brotherhood members. He sighed. "If you've been standing there this whole time, you'd know our situation is desparate. That's why I'm making a very harsh, but necessary, decision."
Murmurs began to erupt in the crowd. Elijah raised his hand to quiet them. "There is a small path from Hidden Valley that leads to one of our safehouses. I've staffed it with robot security to ensure the Legion haven't taken it. You will all go there. I will arrange a call with the NCR President, or whomever in his military equals him, and have all of you rescued and recovered for transport to NCR territory. You will all be safe there."

Veronica was the first to ask the obvious question. "And what will happen to you, Father?"
Elijah paused. "In the Pre-War days, whenever a captain of a large vessel, an airplane, a boat, a spacecraft, was faced with a perilous situation, they would always have everyone else get out first, and then go down with the ship. In some situations, the captain would get out with the rest, but I do not know if I have that luxury."
Veronica opened her mouth to argue, but was silenced by Elijah's cold gaze. "I do not believe that the worst will come to pass, that I need set off the self-destruct sequence. But if, and only if, that option comes to pass, know that I did my best to protect you all. Dismissed."*

 id### The Sisyphus Rejection

*Elijah stared at the bank of monitors he had set up, watching as Legionnaire after Legionnaire surrounded the bunker. He should have known that fool Caesar would have found him out sooner or later. But Elijah was prepared. For the first time since his failure at HELIOS, he had a true moment of clarity. Having salvaged various fusion cores from nearby cars, ejecting all remaining microfusion cells from his weapons, and even taking apart his single remaining Power Armor set for the TX-2800 microfusion reactor, Elijah had set up a venerable Mother Of All Nukes within the Hidden Valley Bunker.With what little time he could spare, he slammed the button on the emergency override to open the bunker doors. The monitors flashed and flickered, as each and every Legion soldier was gunned down in a flurry of gunfire. But it wasn't enough. Elijah could only salvage so many bullets, so after minutes of countless death, Caesar's wall of flesh proceeded on into the bunker. It was with that, that Elijah began the 1 minute countdown to the bunker's self-destruction.
He had rewired the bunker's emergency alarm system to the loudspeakers, allowing him to speak his mind one last time, before he, and hopefully a large chunk of Caesar's war slaves, were taken out with him.

"This thing on? This is Father Elijah speaking, for anyone here who knows proper English instead of your butchered Latin that Caesar insists you speak in. I may be a foolish old man, but the only real fool choice I made was staying here. But in my years of service with the Brotherhood, I believe I'm truly doing the world a favor by ridding it of the likes of you. Somewhere, in another life, I'd probably be on some quest to the Big Empty, the Sierra Madre, maybe even visit the Divide. But I'm here now. Veronica and her girl are safe back in California, as are the rest of the Mojave Brotherhood."

Elijah looked over at the countdown timer. 30 seconds.

"I know I haven't been the best father to her. To anyone. But I always did my best. But to make an analogy you Roman wannabes will understand, I'm Sisyphus, constantly pushing the rock up the mountain, never able to get it to the top. But no more."

10 seconds.

Elijah summoned a voice that even he never knew he was capable of, in order to give a final send-off to the Legion: "I DEFY YOU, CAESAR! YOU HEAR ME, YOU SKIRT WEARING HISTORY REJECTS? THIS OUGHT TO SHOW YOU WHERE YOU REALLY BELONG IN THE HISTORY BOOKS, AS NOTHING MORE THAN A GOD-DAMNED STAIN!"

 id### A President of Necessity

*Congress grew hushed in silence as [NCR.GetLeader] neared the podium. For thirty days since the election, the Senate had been unable to agree a new President. For thirty days, [NCR.GetLeader] had clung to power. Every Senator knew he was a lame duck, doomed to be replaced. No Senator knew who the replacement would be.

"Senators, we find ourselves in a crisis never seen before by our fair Republic. Corruption and a hunger for power have tainted this Congress, and have rendered it unable to elect a new President to lead the Republic forwards. For thirty days, you have deliberated without success. Deals have been struck and abandoned. Dirty money has run amok."

The Senators shuddered. They shuddered not because they minded being called corrupt, or hungry for power: all knew most in Congress were both. Instead they shuddered because they realised as one what his next words would be, and why he had summoned them. They shuddered for they knew with his next words, Kimball was rolling the dice one last time.

"We must have a President. Without one, unrest grows in our towns and cities, in our states and territories. Our enemies across the Wasteland, and within our borders, have already begun plotting against us in our moment of weakness. I cannot let that happen."

A deathly silence descended over the chamber.

"By the power vested in me by Congress, I will remain the President of the Republic until a fresh election can be held and a new candidate agreed."

 id### Chaos in the New Californian Republic

*Sparked by an inconclusive Senate and Presidential election earlier in the year, the NCR has been thrown into complete chaos as a coup has been launched against the crippled Senate. Led by members of the military and civil service, the coup's ringleaders have declared a "Committee for National Security", citing the need for political stability in the face of the Republic's many internal and external foes. While initially promising fresh elections, hope for a return to democracy evapourated after they signed into law the "Law to Remedy the Distress of People and California". The Decree effectively abolishes the federal foundations of the NCR, centralizes power in Shady Sand.

The governments of Boneyard, Dayglow and Redding were quick to denounce the Decree as illegitimate and label the Committee's assention to power as little more than a military coup. But if the Republic is to survive, perhaps the time has come for a Leader.*

*After the chaotic assasination of the President and his War Cabinet, Mossman's ascension to Chairman of the Committee for National Security to fill the political vacuum came as a relief to many across the Republic. It seemed the chaos was over, and soon a new President would be elected. But others wondered why the Ranger should run the nation. Murphy and the Followers led protests for human rights and reports of Legion spies among the demonstrators only proved the pacifists could not be trusted. The latest intercepted communiques made it clear; Murphy was conspiring to overthrow the Committee! Mossman had no choice but to act. But Moore was unconvinced; arresting the governor of the Boneyard might only inflame the opposition. What to do?*

*Despite the vast quantities of manpower, equipment and political capital the New Californian Republic has poured into the Mojave, it appears that today the unthinkable has occured. Pushed out of the their garrisons within the Mojave and forced to make a fighting retreat along the Long 15, the Mojave Territories have officially capitulated. A tentative peace deal has ended hostilities in the region for now, and the bulk of the Mojave Expedition's men have been reabsorbed into the Republic's armed forces.

Now, with [252.Owner.GetName] in control of the Hoover Dam and the Republic's influence in the Mojave collapsing, the NCR will surely need a period of soul-searching to work out what went wrong. It may be the case that, as [NCR.GetLeader] suggests, the Republic will return to the Mojave - though possibly not for many years yet.*

 id### A Knock at the Door

*Major Cassandra Moore was in Shady Sands when the fateful day arrived. She had been reassigned to oversee the Shady Sands Garrison just days after the election on the authority of General Jim Marshal, for reasons she didn't at first understand. As such, she'd seen first hand the Republic's rapid slide into chaos: a Senate in disarray, a President trying to hold back the innevitable, and days of agonising paralysis. To her the crisis seemed like yet another symptom of the Republic's flawed democracy, one that was becoming increasingly in need of dramatic change to save. The President was still in power, and some legitimacy remained, so she kept order on the streets as best she could.

There was a knock at the door of her windowless office, interupting her quiet musings. It was a man she recognised well, Ranger General Mossman, covered in scortch marks and flanked by two Rangers from the 32nd.
"Good morning, Major Moore. It appears we have a bit of a situation." He spoke quickly, with his characteristic charm all but gone. Something had gone wrong, Moore realised. It should be General Marshal, not him!
Before she could question him, Mossman continued. "A meeting of the War Cabinet has been attacked not but ten minutes ago. A bomb, contained in a briefcase sat under the table, detonated during the meeting. The President, Cabinet and military High Command are fine paste across the wall, and I was only saved by the hety table leg that sat between me and it." Shit, Moore though. Shit, shit, shit. Mossman pressed on. "With the presumed death of General Marshal, you are now the highest ranking officer of the Army, as I am of the Ranger Corps. We need to work out a way forwards, and fast."

Who planted the bomb that killed the President and his War Cabinet? Why was Mossman himself the only one spared a messy death? Why was Moore reassigned by Marshal to lead the garrison, yet not invited to the meeting? Questions abound, and yet few answers present themselves.*

 id### A United Front

*While Moore and Mossman have worked overtime to keep order in Shady Sands after the assasination of the President and his War Cabinet, the Republic is rapidly falling apart. Faith in democracy had held strong while there was still a President in power, but in the void that has followed his assasination the Republic's enemies have been swift at seeing opportunity. Without a President, they muse, there will be no person to order the deployment of divisions to counter their raids. Their recent probing attacks have probably proven their theory, and raider violence has blossomed across the Republic. The Senate, meanwhile, has continuted to be paralysed by indecision. In the face of the President's assasination and ever-growing chaos, they've fallen flat. Enough is enough.

At 09:04am, Ranger and Army units moved in sync to occupy key buildings across Shady Sands. Within minutes, the Senate, Presidential Palace and Radio Transmitters had all been occupied. Ten minutes later an unamed civil servant broadcast a statement over the Wasteland: the Committee for National Security hsd assumed the powers of the President until the Senate can elect a new leader.

While the precise members of the Committee are officially anonymous, most know the Committee to be an alliance between senior military and civilian officials. The sense of unity in the face of adversity seems reassuring to the people of Shady Sands. After all, they're just doing the necessary until the Senate can elect a new President. Right?*

*Mossman's raid took out Murphy and his govermnet. But there were always those, in a democracy, to take a hero's palce. And so a Follower beecame a leader. A follower of Dharma and the teachings of Aradesh. A man who saw the worst of despotism, under Edward Sallow. On a speech on Boneyard Radio, Ed Calhoun laid the stakes clear.

'A hundred years ago, the Wasteland was full of slavers. Raiders. Tough talking tyrants and despots. We lived in the shards of a broken world.

The NCR changed that. Aradesh, a village elder. Tandi, a naive girl. Julius, a foolish idealist. A sheltered Vault Dweller. They left a better, kinder, freer world for their children.

And so it must be for us. To many who mock the NCR as an imperialist state, thinking we walk the road of the Old World. But what's so funny about truth, justice, and the Californian way? What's so foolish about empathy and respect?*

*With the south divided between the Followers and Moore's militarists, many forgot about Redding. And why not? The NCR had ignored the riches of the north for years, leaving it to develop on its own. But whereas the Mojave was a warzone, and Navarro was an untamed frontier, Redding had blossomed into a thriving town. A town where you could start as a caravan guard and end up as a king; or where you could lose a fortune at a saloon. A land of gold mines and monsters, and mutants and farms. Not a land where every man's a king - but a land where no man was.

Not every ranger, or surviving Congressman, supported Moore and Mossman. Not every person who believed in freedom joined the mob of the Boneyard. Some fled to Redding, the last free state in the Republic.

And the country roads took them to a new home, away from war.*

 id### Dead Man Waiting

*To much dismay of Mossman, Calhoun was not present at the Boneyard. Spared from the onslaught, he knew Mossman would come for him next. He was probably one of the last remaining opposition to the council now. Still, in a makeshift hospital of the Followers of the Apocalypse in Dayglow, Calhoun contunied to tend his patients. Due to the neglect of Dayglow, many of its residents died from preventable ailments like radiation sickness.

 'Poor boy' he thought, looking at the boy in front of him, waiting for his demise in utter silence. He was an orphan, like many other, scavenging places no adult could fit in for a meager payment. On one that like any other, he got stuck in a reactor room, only to be rescued by a ghoul who heard his pleas. When the ghoul brought him to the Followers, it was already too late. There wasn't enough supplies to treat him. His blood cells were dying and despite all the blood transfusions there was no signs of recovery.

 'Two people, waiting to die' he thought. They both accepted their deaths. 'Thank you' whispered the boy 'for everything', as he drew his last breath. Calhoun collapsed to the chair next to the hospital bed in sorrow, listening to the roar of the vertibirds in the sky. He listened to the footsteps of the rangers, getting closer and closer. A lone figure opened the door, with the gun pointing at him.

*'Hurry, we need to get you to a safe location' said Angela. 'They're onto you'. Following Angela's lead in the dimly lit hallways, Calhoun was confused. He expected his execution, not salvation. He knew Angela, she was one of the original Desert Rangers assigned to train the new ranger corps in Boneyard area. 'Moore killed Mossman' she exclaimed. 'We risked so much to save you.' Only then he realised Angela was limping, with blood dripping from her right leg. 'We were the closest to your location. We intercepted a ciphered communication from the HQ, ordering your assassination. Unlike other rangers, we are not the ordinary rangers. Following the tradition of Desert Rangers, I chose my recruits from the volunteers who desired to be the shield of the innocent. We gathered whatever we can, and deserted. Every single one of us dedicated our lives to the people of the wasteland, not Moore.' He was shocked from all the developments. 'Get in' yelled Angela, pointing the armoured car outside. In a short span of time they reached the ranger safehouse near a small town.Several ranger squads were waiting for them. They all saluted him. Angela slowly got off the car. 'We are waiting for your orders, Mr. President'.*

 id### Trial of the Century

*The end of California’s strife draws near, Moore has failed to project her tyrannical rule on the wasteland. This victory is not ours to claim, the honour goes to our brothers and sisters who fought valiantly and lost their lives fighting for our cause. Calhoun could have never imagined that his ideals would be guiding the wasteland to the future. However not all is said and done…

We find ourselves in the precarious situation of having to deal with the despot that wrought hell upon all who questioned her. If we want to maintain a semblance of order then a trial must be set up to decide the fate of Cassandra Moore. Will we execute the same cruelty she dealt to others or let justice have its way and let mercy have a chance of prospering?

The day of judgement grew near, the air was uncertain while the morning bells rang a sombre sound. A crowd had gathered outside of the Boneyard Justice Centre that was filled to the brim with enraged revolutionaries who wished to see Moore’s cold and limp corpse hanging by the end of the day. Calhoun would have to face the lone and shackled tyrant amongst the riled masses and make his final decision. He risked letting her off leniently by letting her sympathizers in the military take hold amongst the court and would have to choose between 'justice' and the people's will.*

*Good evening, citizens of the Republic. This is Bill Calhoun. Despite all the attempts at my life, I survived. There are, of course, those who still do not want me to speak. I suspect even now, orders are being shouted into the radio, and men with guns will soon be on their way. Why? Because while the truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth. And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn't there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression.

 This grave act of betrayal came not from our enemies, but from those we trusted to protect us from our enemies. Now they hold our wills at a gunpoint. It is time to show them that it is not the people who should be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.

 So if you've seen nothing, if the crimes of this government remain unknown to you, then I would suggest that you allow the Great March to pass unmarked. But if you see what I see, if you feel as I feel, and if you would seek as I seek, then I ask you to stand beside me, one week from tonight, in every city of the republic, and together we shall give them a demonstration of the power of the people, that shall never, ever be forgotten.

 id### Horror From The Past

*My past lingers around my future and leaves a haunting trail anywhere it goes. Edward Sallow was once a man but now all that you can find behind that name is a horrifying monster. Ancient texts poisoned a modern man’s mind, the Boneyard Library was meant to help the ignorant wastes, not land them in more desolation. If I had simply tamed Edward’s ego he would have never gained his imperial aspirations. It’s hard for a man to imagine the thousands he could have saved from crucifixion and decimation had he not aided a former friend.

The Grand Canyon is where the real Sallow last drew breath, he had lost to the temptations of war and the tyrant known as Caesar had taken control of his mind. The snake Joshua Graham had been the final nail in the coffin, sealing his own fiery fate in the process. I had only heard murmurs and small tales of the torture Arizona had endured under their grasp but it was enough to know of my failures. With Moore finally defeated only one of my ideological enemies remained...

Caesar’s cohorts have since fallen to the prideful citizens of California that risked their lives to dethrone the dictator. His paranoid reign of the East has reached its conclusion, now we must pick up the scraps. The same Blackfoots who’s language I once studied had died on the battlefield fighting my own armies. Passing through Phoenix and Flagstaff carried great amounts of irony as my soldiers and I saw my face emblazoned on the captured silver denars alongside Caesar and Graham, to think I had become an idol for the wicked gives me even greater sorrow. The only unknown left in the equation was Caesar’s whereabouts…

Travelling the East was a difficult affair but the Rangers had tracked down a trail of Praetorians leaving chaos in their wake. He had been finally located in the eastern fringes of his former empire in a run down shack. Our anti-material rifles made quick work of his remaining guard as he ran into the innards of his abode. I went head first into his loathsome den with my Sequoia and saw a pale and sickly figure seeking refuge in a corner...

An immense sense of dread drew over me as I looked my former friend in the eye, his face was grey and his eyes were cold. I finally faced the monstrosity I had created and could barely form a phrase, but I knew what had to be done. The moment that lasted a century in my mind ended in the pull of a trigger. I closed his dead eyes and carried his body to a nearby juniper tree as my soldiers watched. I buried him without tears as I roughly carved his former name into the tree, leaving Edward with one last prayer before I said a final goodbye...*

The students of Caesar picked up his scraps and began building their own empire in their own twisted image. A tumour had consumed the dictator that I once shared laughs with, an anti-climatic end to our combined saga but at least Ed’s ghost haunts me no longer. Passing through Phoenix and Flagstaff carried great amounts of irony as my soldiers and I saw my face emblazoned on the captured silver denars sitting alongside the dead tyrant, to think I had become an idol for the wicked gives me even greater sorrow. His Centurions barely put up a better fight than the Blackfoots in their first battle, Sallow’s armies were nothing without their commander.

While travelling across the tortured lands of Arizona I had decided to visit the tomb that Caesar’s disciples had erected in the center of Flagstaff. They spared no expense on it, having gathered all the gold and marble you can find in the modern day wasteland to construct the miniature monolith. There was not even a mention of the name of the Follower that travelled east, simply the word “CAESAR” that left an imprint bigger than a brahmin. After reminiscing on our time spent together I wondered if it would be too generous to the tyrant’s legacy if we left his mausoleum standing...

Answer:

Tear it down to honour the memory of Edward Sallow.

I’ll let Caesar be remembered by all for who he became.*

The Grand Canyon is where the real Sallow last drew breath, he had lost to the temptations of war and the tyrant known as Caesar had taken control of his mind. Even though Graham had repented for his actions he was the ultimate nail in Ed’s coffin. I had only heard murmurs and small tales of the torture Arizona had endured under their grasp but it was enough to know of my failures. With Moore finally defeated only one of my ideological enemies remained...

Caesar’s cohorts have since fallen to the prideful citizens of California that risked their lives to dethrone the dictator. His paranoid reign of the East has reached its conclusion, now we must pick up the scraps. The same Blackfoots who’s language I once studied had died on the battlefield fighting my own armies. Graham had chosen to join me on my journey to find the hiding Bull. Passing through Phoenix and Flagstaff carried great amounts of irony as me and Graham saw our faces emblazoned on the captured silver denars alongside Caesar, to think we had become an idol for the wicked gave us a moment of dark and cynical reflection. The only unknown left in the equation was Caesar’s whereabouts...

Travelling the East was a difficult affair but Graham knew of his many safehouses and had tracked down a trail of Praetorians leaving chaos in their wake. Caesar had been finally located in the eastern fringes of his former empire in a concrete bunker. Joshua’s .45 shone light into the Legionary’s dark skulls as we cleared the outer rim of his compound. We both charged headfirst into his personal room and made sure his guard fell victim to my .50 calibre rounds. Graham and I stood over a cloaked figure that barely resembled the friend we once knew, we both looked at each other wondering what to do...

As we both looked at the pale ghost of a human we both once held dear we felt pity. We were partially to blame for his ambitions and fiery ego. His cold eyes stared at us as he carried an almost maniacal smile on his grim face. The husk of Edward Sallow laid in front of us and it only took a few moments for us to decide that neither of us had the willpower to put an end to our former friend, his tyrannical rule was as much of our fault as it was his. We had agreed to tie him and bring him to the borders of the Rio Grande river and set him loose, hopefully we would never see the eyes that once belonged to Ed ever again...*

**Goodbye, old friend.**

 id### A Chance Meeting

*Llwyd engaged the communications array, waiting nervously for the antiquated systems of the bunker to connect to the NCR's satellite. Calhoun of the new 'Californian Way' had sent a personal messenger to discuss the terms of opening a potential mutual relationship between the Californian Way and Lost Hills, but Llwyd was not one for face-to-face meetings, at least when it came to a group that had once been friends, turned enemies, and now requesting friendship once more.
His thoughts were interrupted as the "Please Stand By" screen turned to a visage of Calhoun's face. Llwyd had to admit, he had not expected the man to know how to use the video call format so quickly, believing that he would have had to walk him through turning on the video feed and making sure the microphone worked. Nevertheless, Llwyd began with a simple acknowledgement. "You're coming through loud and clear, Mr. Calhoun."

Calhoun shook his head. "Please, Elder Llwyd, we may be strangers to each other, but far as I'm concerned, this is a call between friends-to-be. Call me Bill."

Llwyd nodded. "Alright, Bill, you're coming through loud and clear."
Calhoun fished several pieces of paper from a folder on the desk, holding them up to the camera for Llwyd to see. "Now, hopefully this is coming through alright, but I've personally drawn up some of the terms of our potential cooperation. It's not too terribly long, though I'll give you a minute to read through them."

Llwyd's eyes shifted back and forth, taking in the meaning, both direct and those that may have had more between-the-line interpretations, of the compiled documents. He was no stranger to drawing up documents that had more than one meaning or interpretation, though it did result in him gaining a sneaky or snake-like reputation to some. Once satisfied that the documents didn't contain any hidden meanings or arrangements that would result in the Western Brotherhood's full dissolution, Llywd nodded his head, put his full attention back up to the camera, and gave his response to Calhoun.*

 id### The Rangers of Steel

*The reformist leader of the Brotherhood of Steel sat in a mildly uncomfortable steel chair. While Calhoun had tolerated the idea of a video call the first time, he peacefully, but directly, insisted that Llwyd meet with him in person. Which was why Llwyd now found himself sitting in the "dean's" office of the Followers Boneyard Medical University, which had become a sort of routing neutral zone for many Californian affairs since the dissolution of the New California Republic. Llwyd did take some pride when Calhoun came in, sitting in a chair of the exact same make, and experiencing the same mild discomfort he was experiencing.

Putting his hand up, Calhoun shifted around in his chair. "Before you start, I know, the chairs. I've been asking for more caravaneers to try and salvage either Pre-War office chairs, or materials to make them, but the people would rather not give them any more influence than they're getting in Redding. Even if it's to give us more comfortable places to sit."

Llwyd nodded. "But the chairs weren't what I wanted to discuss, Bill. You mentioned having an addendum to our cooperation?"
Calhoun nodded. Taking a sealed capsule out from his satchel, he popped open the lid, removing a rolled up piece of fabric, which unfurled to reveal an emblem of what appeared to be the traditional insignia of the Brotherhood logo, the winged circle and sword, mixed with the old version of the New California Republic Rangers flag, with three lines, and the silver star of the Rangers at the center.

"The Steel Rangers. A simple idea, but one with so much meaning behind it. I know that you've been holding out on me, and I can understand why. But you can help me to help you. All I ask is that you grant the Californian Way the ability to utilize your fancy Circle of Steel gear and specialized Combat Armor. You're not doing this out of the good of your heart, I know more than enough what kind of people that sort of thinking can lead to. But this is the last thing I will ask of you and your people."*

 id### Democracy is Still Alive

*Since the collapse of democracy in the NCR, many things have impeded a return to normalcy, Allgood’s death, Moore’s tyranny, Flynn’s extortions, and finally, our war against Caeser’s Legion. Through it all, Calhoun has led us, not as an elected official but as the right man for the job. But now that we are finally at peace, Calhoun thinks perhaps it is time for democracy to rise again. Although many folks are fearful of another electoral deadlock, Calhoun running as a candidate himself has calmed the waters, instating an election for any who wish to run, representing their factions and beliefs within the nation.

Alongside him are two candidates: Richard Goldman, backed by the newly popularized Church of Hubology, and Lo Pan, backed by the Shi of the newly annexed San Franciscan state. Both powerful players in their own right, surely their election would mean drastic changes for the Californian Way.

 id### Cooperation of the Brotherhood

*Since the passing of what has been referred to some in Congress as the "Brotherhood Cooperation Act", though others derogatorily refer to it as "Calhoun's Biggest Mistake", the Brotherhood of Steel have emerged from Lost Hills, and began resuming the practices they were once reputed for long before the declaration of war. While many still have hateful sentiments towards the Brotherhood, many more are thankful that they are able to cook toast in peace, without fear of their toasters being seized by the Brotherhood.
The Act did not come without some controversy, as some hardliner Brotherhood troops have since attempted to return to the circumstances that began the war in the first place, by demanding that troops and civilians of the NCR hand over any and all energy weapons that they might be in possession of. Though no blood has been spilled as of yet, both Calhoun and Llwyd have promised that previous hostilities represented in the sentiments of these more hardline soldiers do not represent the spirit of the BCA, and will be reprimanded and properly punished for their behaviors.

The most controversial aspect, however, was that the cooperation between the NCR and Brotherhood did not fully realize the potential sharing of technologies between the two. Many expected that the partnership would result in NCR soldiers being outfitted in proper Power Armor and equipped with top-of-the-line energy weapons. Instead, the so-called Steel Rangers have only presented the NCR with assistance to their own technological developments, claiming that they were unable to provide the technologies that they had used for so long as the Brotherhood of Steel.

Radicals within NCR states are advocating for a full search of Lost Hills and any nearby affiliated groups, such as the Guardians in Nevada, believing that Llwyd may simply be hiding the schematics or stashes of advanced Brotherhood technology in the same way that many in the NCR believe that the Brotherhood are continuing to hide their stolen NCR gold reserves. Both Llwyd and Calhoun deny this to be the case.*

 id### Dysfunction of the Brotherhood

*In a nearly unbelievable move by the Brotherhood, Bill Calhoun revealed today that Elder Llwyd of the Lost Hills Brotherhood of Steel refused to join forces with the Californian Way. Calhoun refused to elaborate on what specifically drove the Elder, who had seemingly been pushing for leadership reform and cooperation with the former NCR for the duration of his Eldership, to decide to forego what seemed to be his entire purpose and life goal. Current theorists believe that Llwyd experienced a temporary bout of insanity, due to sustained stresses of leadership and other circumstances within the Brotherhood, but the truth is not known at this time.

The Californian Way continues to advocate for non-violent and peaceful means of handling situations, but the refusal of the Brotherhood is one of the rare instances that both Californian and Follower alike believe that, after repeated hostilities and unwarranted aggression, the tensions with the Brotherhood are higher than ever. Calhoun continues to advocate for peaceful protest of the Brotherhood, but rumors from within the Followers believe he himself is creating a war plan in order to deal with the Brotherhood once and for all.
In a related story, Brotherhood hardliners, having seemingly agreed with Llwyd's refusal, have taken to leaving Lost Hills on what can only be described as raiding missions. Traders, settlers, and mercenaries alike report being faced with three or more Brotherhood soldiers, and asked to hand over any and all technology they have, be it a Pip-Boy, a laser pistol, or a waffle iron. Those who have attempted to resist or fight back have been met with immediate disintegration.*

 id### Steel Rangers Success!

*Once, a partnership between the NCR and Brotherhood was well underway. That was until the NCR made the fateful decision to utilize energy weapons, which resulted in the Brotherhood declaring war on them in order to maintain their alleged monopoly on advanced technologies. For decades, this war went on without end, as Brother fought against Ranger, each side taking massive morale losses. With the fall of the NCR and the rise of the Californian Way, however, this partnership has not only returned, it's thrived.

For the first time in what may as well be centuries, long-time Brotherhood soldiers are able to retire, in order to let the younger generation of both Brotherhood and Californian step into their Power Armored shoes. Carrying the torch of democracy was once thought to be only the responsibility of the NCR, but even a massive torch needs more than a single hand to carry it. The formation of the Steel Rangers has resulted in an almost unprecedented improvement of relations between the two groups, as quality of life, training, and equipment have skyrocketed across the nation.

The decision has not come without controversy, however, as Lost Hills has begun the process of being dismantled, in order to solidify relations between the two groups. While the former state of Maxson has pledged to take any and all historical artifacts from the disassembly to create a form of museum and historical site of Lost Hills, many within the Brotherhood have mixed feelings on losing their core, even if it means gaining a new friendship with the Californian Way.*

 id### Brotherhood Monopolizes Steel!

*Negotiations fell through today, as Calhoun revealed that he had attempted to discuss the formation of the "Steel Rangers", a group that would have wholly unified the Californian Way with the Brotherhood of Steel. Despite cooperation, little progress has been made in resolving the decades-long feud between NCR and Brotherhood, even if the former no longer exists. Calhoun stated that the main appeal of the Steel Rangers was apparently not the breaking point, but rather in asking the Brotherhood to hand over some of their technologies for use by the Californian Way.

Elder Llwyd was seen silently walking out of the Boneyard University, his face as blank as a sheet of paper, and seemingly blank to the rest of the world. When approached for comment, Llwyd was uncertain in responding, eventually leaving the city via taxi. In the time since the announcement, tensions between Brotherhood and Californian have flared up slightly, despite previous insistence that the cooperation would put an end to such instances. While no active aggressions or hostilities have been taken, one wonders if the Brotherhood holding onto their identity will result in the same circumstances that resulted in the collapse of the NCR.*

 id### Vault 13's Hero

*When Shady Sands was but a budding settlement, plagued by raiders and locked in a bitter struggle for survival, it was visited by a denizen of Vault 13. Known only as the "Vault Dweller", he met with Aradesh, who shared their knowledge with him on his quest to replace Vault 13's faulty water chip. While the water chip from Vault 15 (Shady Sands' home vault) was piled too far under rock for the Vault Dweller to recover, Aradesh's kindness made the Vault Dweller feel indebted to the struggling community. When disaster struck Shady Sands and Khan raiders captured Aradesh's daughter Tandi, the Vault Dweller repaid his debt ten times over, freeing Tandi and driving the Khans from the California for decades.

Our run-in with the Vault Dweller's kindness and honour was a founding moment for the Republic, as without his bold assault on the Khans and freeing of Tandi our fledgling nation would never have taken off from the ground. Over the centuries after his visit, the Vault Dweller's impact on Shady Sands would morph into the settlement's founding myth. Society would be forever morphed, but by what fundamental ideal?*

 id### The Republic's Golden Years

*Over the 52 years President Tandi led the Republic, the union of five states went from strength to strength. By focusing the Republic's economy and workforce on infrastructure and agriculture, California enjoyed a thriving network of trade routes and Brahmin farms. The clearing of roads, rivers and railways paved the way for the rapid redeployment of the NCR's growing military, allowing the prompt response to threats across southern California and reaching north towards Redding. Backed by an abundance of renewable food thanks to GECK-created farmland and Brahmin herds, the population of settlements major and minor alike exploded, further ballooned by an influx of new settlers from across Northern California and beyond. Never afraid of using underhand tactics to achieve her goals, she bullied New Reno and Vault City into joining the Republic as autonomous territories, and ordered the assault on Navarro that would shatter the Enclave on the West Coast.

In premiership so abundant with successes and victories, Tandi's legacy has shaped every aspect of the NCR and the wider wasteland. One set of her policies saw success beyond comparison, and helped the founding Shady Sands State grow beyond comparison.*

 id### Stagnation at the Zenith

*Soon after President Tandi's passing in 2248, the New California Republic reached its zenith. Under Tandi, Shady Sands spread from the Pacific to Redding, from the Boneyard to the gates of the Mojave. Even the Golden Circle's towns fell beneath the Bear, as Vault City 'welcomed' a NCR Garrison and Reno became an 'associated state'. At home, Tandi's fierce regulation against wealthy ranchers, the so-called Brahmin Barons, and rich trading monopolies ensured prosperity and support for the Republic and revived dreams of a better world. Tandi's successor, Tibbett, continued the good times, and all thought the Republic's good times would last forever.

But the fate of the Republic changed forever in 2253, when a caravan of 38 NCR citizens journeying from Arizona to Baker was attacked by raiders in the Northern Mojave, at the time a desolate no-man's land. President Tibbett, following Tandi's mould of preferring diplomacy to brute force, was slow to react to the crisis. While Tibbett dithered, opportunistic senators smelled blood, most notably Wendell Peterson, who demanded military assistance for the crisis. Peterson enchanted Tibbett with the promise that the bear had claws. Peterson's inauguration showed the limits of the NCR's progress. Peterson allied himself with the Brahmin Barons and relied on increasingly militaristic, expansionist policies to win the support of the population. As the Brahmin Barons rose and the vast expansion of the military continued, the NCR started a haphazard period of stagnation. Fueled by Baron and Caravansary money, the Republic entered a harsh cycle of consumerism and corruption. Sure, the Republic thrived, but it was no longer ordinary people gaining most from the growth.

By 2275, much of Northern California was run from Redding by the Barons themselves, benefiting from NCR protection while contributing little of their own. The Navarro territories, liberated with Brotherhood assistance, are a seething frontier. And the Mojave, well... as they say, the House always wins.*

 id### Crises in California

*Life in the Wasteland isn't simple: especially not for a democracy as cumbersome and problem-riddled as the NCR. After decades of decadent decline under the premiership of Peterson and Kimball, the Republic is facing a number of crises on many fronts. In the south, Dayglow faces off with raider groups along the Colorado and in Baja who threaten the blooming city's security and prosper. The Brotherhood lurks in its bunkers, and whether they will be friend or foe is too soon to tell. San Francisco, nominally a friend of the Republic, pursues its own designs under the Shi. The Barons continue to run roughshod over the people of Northern California. With the NCR distracted, Vault City and Navarro debate their own course.

*"I had no idea that things were so good," Murphy cried, in the halls of Congress, "that we once again face a war. The Van Graffs and barons in Navarro trample the rights of tribals; they extort crops from the settlers from the Shi; and they smuggle guns and drugs to Oregon. Now you ask NCR soldiers to fight and die for them?"

 Kimball waited for the cries to die down, and slammed a fist on the podium. "Spare me your moral condescension, Murphy. As far as I can see, it is only the Republic that takes risk for humanity. It is our rangers that cracked down on cannibalism in Navarro. Our merchants who sold the Shi their farming tools. And our settlers that tamed the mighty forests of the north. Some of the men fight for nothing more than the flag and their own interest. But we stand by the people of Navarro, and the Republic - the one society that goes out armed for right, and for freedom. And we will not surrender our hard won lands so you can feel smug at home."*

The Gangs have taken advantage of those who fall through the cracks and continue to grow in power. Investing in the Boneyard could be a long term benefit to the Republic.*

Throughout most of its existance, the Republic has been caught in near-permanant war. Between combatting raiders at home, the Enclave in the north, tribals in the south and the Brotherhood across the land, there's never been a moment for the Republic to truly thrive. Many have lost their lives fighting for the Republic, and there's few across the nation who have not been scared in some way by war. Still, life presses on.

 id### Wendell Peterson's War

*In May 2253, a gang of raiders attacked a large trade convoy outside Nipton. Despite a heroic defence by the caravan's guards, all 38 members of the convoy were massacred, and their extensive supplies of food, water and weapons looted. Joanna Tibbet, Tandi's successor to the Presidency, was subsequently removed from power by the Senate over her refusal to commit troops to secure the Mojave. Her replacement, Wendell Peterson, proved more plyable to the Senate's bullish rhetoric, ordering three battalions of Troopers into the Mojave under the command of then-General Aaron Kimball in October. For the following decade Kimball made a name for himself as the principle architect of the "Pacification of the Mojave", and under his leadership the NCR captured much of its current holdings.

Shortly after Kimball's depature from the Mojave in 2273, Ranger scouts made two shocking discoveries: the intact Hoover Dam, and a mostly undamaged Las Vegas. Now-President Kimball ordered the Dam conquered as his first act of office in 2274, and the subsequent Treaty of New Vegas ensured peace with Mr House. However, these successes quickly evaporated as supply and logistic issues plague the region, and casualties are ever-increasing in what was pledged to be a quick and easy campaign. Without help, the Expedition is sure to collapse from exhaustion, but we can only spare so much.*

 id### By the People, For the People, Of the People

*The Followers are fierce opponents of Kimball, and are backed by Governor Allgood Murphy. As he once put it in the speech earning his name, "We must be thankful, that we have no ills at home, and can afford another war. There is no crime in the Republic. There is no want in the Republic. There are no children in need of schools; no sick in need of care. There are no farmers who need assistance, no neighbors who need a hand. To spend as much blood and treasure as we have, all must be good."

One of Kimball's other critics is Mayor Hayes of Dayglow. Mocked for his Old World Blues, Hayes studied America's past, the days when a nation stretched from sea to shining sea, with influence extending from pole to frozen pole. Hayes opposes the war in the Mojave because the resources spent there should be spent to uplift the Republic. Indeed, Hayes is perhaps the only NCR politician who does not just respect House, but admires him.*

*Aradesh was not just the first president of the Republic; he was also a strong believer in the teachings of Dharma. Dharma was one of the great teachers before the War, who prophesied that mankind's greed and folly would lead to death and destruction. Only by following the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path could mankind avoid the endless horror of unchanging war. Understandably, the faith, mocked as a Californian cult before the war, flourished in its aftermath. Dharma's presence isn't as flashy as a Ranger outpost or a Crimson Caravan station; but the faith makes its presence known through soup kitchens, hospitals, and its ties to the Followers. For a single candle can light thousands; and the light is not decreased by being shared.*

 id### Grant C. Hayes elected President of the NCR

*A season of simultaneous apprehension and enthusiasm has befallen the West, and the news came out of New California as quickly as it manifested - the New California Republic, founded on the values and institutions of the Old World, swallowed its own tail with the election of Grant C. Hayes. Preoccupied with every point in time save for the present, the incoming administration promises sweeping changes to the social and economic fabric of the Republic. Observers regard the incoming administration with astonishment, the most learned citing the promised implementation of developed economic systems not seen in practice since before the Great War to forecast an imminent golden age for the Republic.

Few understand precisely what an inflation is, nor what constitutes contractionary or expansionary monetary policy, yet cautious optimism permeates the general atmosphere - though many do regard with disquiet the government’s inexplicable stated intention to fondle, squeeze and pull on their hard-earned money.*

*A profound sense of relief first permeated New California, then extended outwards across the west - Allgood Murphy has secured his position as President of the New California Republic, heralding a welcome end to the jingoistic policies which previously defined the character of the nation. Although critics suggest that the new, more cooperative foreign policy of the Republic will render it susceptible to exploitation and invasion, the general atmosphere is one of elation, as the apprehension has vanished from within the Republic that one may be sent to die in the pursuit of any number of undefined, wholly superfluous campaigns of conquest abroad, whereas those outside of the Republic may now feel more secure in their continued autonomy.

The New California Republic, in this connection, has exchanged its prior state of defensive autarky in favor of a more cooperative defensive policy, manifesting the portent of a more complicated situation for potential invaders..*

*Many stood with baited breath for the news to come out of California - when it did, it seemed at once electrifying and expected. Aaron Kimball has secured his position as President of the New California Republic, confirming the trajectory of the young nation and setting in stone the ongoing sequence of conquests further eastward from the Pacific coast. Outsiders of the Republic watch with terrible and brooding disquiet, as it has become immediately obvious that further expansion of the Republic has become non-negotiable, and it is more a matter of when, rather than if, any resisting nation is trampled underfoot..

The torch of liberty burns brightly, yet it now remains to be seen whether its flame will shine as an inspiration, or if it will burn the shaky foundation of civilization into ash for a second time.*

 id### Electoral Deadlock in the NCR

*At first, many waited with great enthusiasm and unease for the results of the ongoing election in the New California Republic to be announced. It had seemed as though all certainty had vanished, save for the tacit understanding that the destiny of the Republic would be enshrined, and that the will of the people would be recognized as it always had.

And yet, as the election drew on, a great and terrible sense of trepidation began to dominate the general character of New California - the general anxiety was horrible, and over the desert loomed a specter of imminent and physical danger. Nights swept by, and the apprehension became a source of public nuisance for those who pretended to sleep. Each day, the Senate bickered, and votes shifted like desert sands in the wind. Still, a majority inevitably failed to manifest, and the bickering continued. As time passed, it became abundantly clear that the New California Republic had, for the first time in its history, faced absolute electoral deadlock.*

But we can, by working together, simply make more. Technology made our ancestors the richest, strongest people on the planet. And it can do so again.

As a fringe candidate, Kimball is facing a challenge from a new contender from the Eureka territories. That man harkens back to some of California's more controversial figures - The Regulators who gave security to the Boneyard. The Hubologists who kept the light of learning in San Francisco. Gizmo's sharp business practices in Junktown.

The men who kept an Enclave of civilization alive after the Great War, as it were.

 Douglas Granite is unlikely to prevail in the election, of course. How could a scrappy mercenary from the boonies compare to the President who opened the Mojave?''*

 id### The Best Form of Government

*When Reno and Vault City joined the NCR as the 'Commonwealth of Nevada,' it was contingent upon Nevada's citizens having the rights of all nativeborn NCR citizens. This included, to much surprise, the right to run for president. Kimball may have survived a vote of no confidence htanks in part to the Nevada success sory, but Granite now stands up for the common man and spirit of 76.

But what is that spirit, the Wasteland wonders. The spirit of Revolution, from the Ancient Americans? Or the spirit of prosperity from 2076? Granite's main avenue of attackk is to rally against the senatorial structure of the Republic, and to push for the Republic's citizens voting directly for president. But many people find Granite's campaign to be nothing but empty promises. To woo the states of the Republic, Granite will have to stake out some positions of his own.*

 id### ~The Baja Blues~

*In the year 2256, the NCR Colony of Rattletail was established in the northern portion of Baja California. These brave pioneers received formal NCR funding, but little military protection, a choice which would prove fatal. The young colonists tried to develop the region's water supply, but Mexico's fearsome raiders tried to take their hard won gains.

The cartels retaliated against the small settlement, and launched two major assaults against the township, both of which were stopped with relative ease. It was the intervention and wisdom of a young Ranger, named Hanlon, that ended the dispute before the toll of the conflict became notable. The man crafted a clever lie, spouting nonsense about an army of raiders that would soon come and wipe the town away. The colonists evacuated, the locals regained their water-supply, and greater conflict was avoided.

Unfortunately, this lie had an unintended result. But now [NCR.GetLeader] faces pressure to go south, and find new land for the Bear to trod upon.*

 id### Steel Lady of California

*Hayes paced in his President-Elect office chambers. He had called for Moore to meet with him, taking note of her endeavors during the ongoing Mojave Campaign. "As you may have come to know, despite your time out of the country, I’m a man of the the 2070s, yet I reach for the future, to bring us back to that era."
Moore glared, taking an immense interest in the floor than continuing to look towards the bespectacled candidate. "An interesting proposition, if it weren't coming from a man who has more in common with a certain group of bug-eyed freaks with buggier choppers."
A pause impregnated itself in the room, only being broken by the lamentation of the future President of the NCR. "I believe in the old ways. I believe in the values and traditions that have been passed down through generations of American history. But I also believe in the future. Our future. I believe in the potential of the NCR and the world we can make beyond New California. I believe that we can create something better than what we have now. That’s why I wanted to become President. And now I have."

"You’re another idealist then." Moore shook her head, unable to believe she had come to meet with the President, only to find he was as foolish as the past administrations she had served under.

Hayes stood tall, the light of the room reflecting his spectacles into brilliant discs. "I am. I believe in the glory of the old United States. I believe in the power of democracy. I believe that if we work together, we can make a difference. We can create a brighter future."

“And what will you do if you can't do that?"

A glaze formed over the eyes behind the discs, quickly taken away by a flutter of blinks and renewed vigor. "You know what they said in the Old World. Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars."
Moore cautiously gazed at the albino soon-to-be president. She still saw yet another useless man who would likely go on to grind up thousands of men in some pointless faraway war, but she couldn't help but have some confidence in the man's bravado and self-assurance. She outstretched her gloved hand.

*As the first to contact the Moore occupation government, for Rosado the local banter about her "betrayal" meant nothing, for her cooperation would help her homeland prosper. And she believed Hayes was the right man for it.

But one thing Hayes told her kept Rosado on her toes.

Brotherhood of Steel.

Hayes was a vivid hater of them, and knowing this, Rosado was surprised that he had agreed to work with her, but a recent meeting showed why.

Hayes said that he was willing to give more privileges to Rosado, and even to give funds for her scientific research, for as it turns out the president is an extremely intelligent man himself, but the condition was that Rosado's connection to the Alamo be publicly severed. And that thought kept Rosado on his toes. "Am I willing to betray my friend for the sake of progress?"*

 id### Shutting The Front Door

*For Dornan, meeting the President was supposed to be a great honor, a lifetime goal or achievement, a symbol that he had made his mark on the world. And yet, in spite of all he hoped, he found himself meeting a President, just not the right one. He had once had dreams of serving alongside the great Frank Horrigan, serving on the Richardson Presidency's Secret Service. That all went up in a nuclear fireball in the fall of 2242, when the Oil Rig exploded. He had done his best to keep his men calm and his plasma rifle charged. After 4 years of holding the NCR off, however, he found himself with more empty suits of Mark II Powered Combat Armor, and his plasma rifle had run out of charges long before that.

Dornan's men never had any qualms with his leadership, despite how many of his men snidely referred to him as their "mean old" sergeant, but Dornan knew that, if he wished to make a new living for himself in this Enclave-free world, he would need a new identity. And so, Chad Rannor was born. A short buzzcut, a pair of tinted glasses, and a salvaged set of leather armor completed the illusion. But Dornan never forgot where he came from. It was one of the reasons that he almost immediately ended up outing himself in Vault City. Upon taking the citizenship test, he immediately nearly wrung Proconsul Gregory's neck, screaming at him about how he lived in the most glorious bastion of America in the wasteland, yet was squandering it by making his men go through, as Rannor put it, "a lily-livered pencilneck wet dream to make sissies out of the real men".

Gregory's neck was spared from permanent injury, thankfully, due to the interference of Citizen Sergeant Stark. The two men shouted until their faces just about turned blue. Finally, after nearly an hour of "civil conversation", or a shouting match as Gregory called it, the two men agreed to a compromise. Due to Rannor's previous experience in a "highly classified Pre-War military operations group" (one that was responsible for Vault City to begin with, as Rannor was so kind as to explain to Stark), he would not only be made a citizen, but would also become a sergeant within the Vault City Guard, no questions asked, with full confidence that the NCR would never learn of his true heritage.

Rannor's thoughts were interrupted by the squawk of the intercom, signaling that President Hayes was ready to see him. Preparing to step through the door, Arch Dornan prepared to adopt his Chad Rannor identity once more, not knowing what to expect from the man behind the door.*

 id### One Small Step For Hayes...

*The conditions of the recently-refurbished Manned Spacecraft Center, or, as Hayes preferred to refer to it by its old nickname, "Space City", were almost entirely perfect for the historic achievement Grant C. Hayes wished to be present to see. After delegations with the previous owners, the "Houston Rockets", the New American Republic now had full control over the operations and facilities within the Space Center.
Although some criticisms were given to the Hayes Administration for automatically wishing to launch a crewed mission to space, rather than dealing with some of the more fundamental internal and external issues of the NAR, Hayes brushed them off as being short-sighted. He himself had changed his typical suit for a pristine white suit, with a small memento pin, shaped as an asymmetrical arrowhead, recieved fron an old Captain Cosmos promotion he had been fascinated with in his youth.

A technician, dressed in salvaged United States Space Administration gear, approached Hayes. "One minute to launch, Mr. President, would you like to remain here, or retreat to the observation area?"

"I'd prefer to stay here." Hayes replied simply, continuing to stare up at the launch complex and the service structure, housing the shuttle that would hopefully complete his biggest dream of all.

The shuttle itself was the salvaged combination of the Hermes-XIII and Hermes-XIV shuttles recovered from Bloomfield. Although the XIII had a more unorthodox structure, resembling that of a Pre-War idea of a futuristic bomber than a spacecraft, the XIV was the much more rudimentary, though non-functioning on its own, design. The two had originally been concieved of as Mars missions, but, as Hayes did not want to begin a mission that could last his whole administration quite yet, he settled for a mission that could be completed in considerably less time.
The crew themselves were hand-picked by Hayes, representing a new frontier in not only NAR history, but American history. A man, a woman, a robot, and a ghoul. He wanted to include a Super Mutant, so as not to anger his other mutant supporters, but neither the technology nor space allowed for it, plus Dayglow had a bigger ghoul population.

As the countdown began, Hayes thought of himself beginning to shed a tear at his fantasies being made reality. And as the rocket began to lift off from its structure, the first of many NAR missions, to space, to the final frontier, and possibly beyond, began in the same way all dreams did. Up into the wild blue yonder.*

 id### The Big Red Button

*Hayes had recently returned from a personal venture in overseeing the NAR reconstruction of the Navarro complex, currently planned to be turned into a museum once all items of value were recovered and extracted from it. This venture, however, had Hayes bringing back a small, curious, device. Although the taped-on Enclave marking and heavily faded American flag insignias were familiar, the device itself, a small, rectangular brick with an extending antenna, a touch-interface screen, and, most notably, a large red button at the very center. As the button was unlit, Hayes had little temptation to actually press it, but was still intent on figuring out what it did.

Taking upon the burdensome task of polishing his spectacles, he began on an important journey, one he frequently lampooned his predecessors for: Reading the instructions. Although they were located on the back, the actual label was torn, and largely consisted of technological gibberish and semi-understandable jargon. After several minutes of reading, and hours spent attempting to piece together what few pictures there were, Hayes came to understand that the device was a sort of trigger for an orbital delivery system.

Upon taking off the back cover of the device and replacing the fission battery, he activated the touchscreen, revealing the device had automatically been plugged into aiming at two locations, with a third option being to simply deliver the payload at a random location.

The large red button, now brightly lit, become ever more tempting to him...

Hayes pondered over which he would select.*

 id### The Old Man and the ICBM

*Elijah had finally made it. All his preparations, all the mockery he had suffered, all the insolence he had forced to undergo through his leadership of the Mojave Chapter. It had all led up to this. The gates of the Sierra Madre, as pristine as the day they were built, beckoned towards him. He had sent scouts ahead to look over at the site, dreaming of all the secrets it could hold. Big Mountain had been a treasure trove unto itself, but this... this was to be his crowning achievement.

All of a sudden, Elijah's Pip-Boy began buzzing, as it emitted a voice that he had never heard before, picked up on some ancient broadcast that had seemed to emit from the Sierra Madre itself.

"This is Frederick Sinclair speaking. The godless Chinamen have finally done it. The Gala Event, my friends, is unfortunately delayed for the foreseeable future. I have every bit of confidence that this casino will be able to withstand the brunt of a nuclear blast. However, if you find yourself outside the protection of the many facilities, please note that Rad-X and RadAway are able to be constructed through the vending machines through a holotape recipe, which I will make available at a starting price of 5 million dollars per disk, not counting chip costs. I must now retreat to my personal vault. Please enjoy the complimentary refreshments, and thank you for staying at the Sierra Madre, where everyone has a chance to begin again."

Elijah listening to the extent of a dead man's ramblings and needless overcharging for a basic commodity distracted him from the oncoming danger, but by the moment he picked his head up to begin running away or seeking cover, it was too late...*

 id### In This Man's Army Now

*General Alexander Drummond stood at the sequoia wood door that led to newly inaugurated President Hayes' office. He wasn't sure why he'd been called at so late in the morning, but he'd never been one for being late or too early, he made a point to be on time no matter what.
"The President will see you now, General." The intercom buzzed into life and died just as it began.
Entering the room, Drummond was met with a plethora of both Old World history and New World mementos, ordered across the room in a neat and orderly fashion. If he hadn't known this was the same office of Aaron Kimball, Wendell Peterson, Joanna Tibbet, and Tandi herself, he would have thought he'd accidentally stepped into a Followers or even a Brotherhood shrine or museum.

Hayes looked up at him from behind the President's desk, holding a paper and simultaneously glancing at a portable terminal he had set up.
"Ah, General. Good to see you." Before Drummond could even acknowledge being spoken to, Hayes waved his free hand at him, still looking intently at the paper and screen."Before you say anything, I've come to learn quite a bit about you. Would you mind if I shared?"

Drummond gave a brief headshake.

"Splendid. Now, let's see... born in 2199, trained with the Desert Rangers, Arizona Division, educated at the Aradesh School District just outside of the Boneyard, graduated from the Seth Military Academy, with high marks in Pre-War military history and an exquisite knowledge and interest in things related to the Pre-War period known as World War 2, going as far as to... salvage a tank of all things, heh. After graduation, you rose from a Lieutenant to Captain, with Tandi giving you exceptional honors upon your actions as the "Hero of Navarro" between 2242 and 2246. As of 2265, after approximately 4 decades of military service, you retired, only to come back at the request of the previous administration."
Hayes finally looked up, giving the general a bright grin and wide eyes from behind his glasses.
"I skimmed on a few details, nobody needs to know where exactly you got the equipment you needed to deal with the Enclave back at Navarro with a war on, but you, my friend, are probably one of the few people in this backwater pastiche of America who would probably understand what I am planning, and especially what I am about to say next. You're already a General, and I can make you a Brigadier or even a four or even five star one with a snap, but how do you feel about a little... historical reenactment?"

Drummond finally snapped up the courage to speak. Gruffly, he gave the inquiry. "A reenactment of what exactly, Mr. President?"
Hayes looked once more at the paper. "It says you wrote a military thesis on how you would have more effectively and efficiently conducted several European operations, especially ones like Normandy, the Bulge, and Meuse. How would you like to put your theorem to the test?"
Drummond finally broke through the stone face he had set himself, giving the President a wide smile.*

*There was a time when America meant something, in the world. When its armies shielded its people across an ocean. When its scientists solved the resource shortages that held back progress and held the stars in their grasp. When its people were protected by governments and businesses that looked out for them.

But look at the NCR now - devoted to untrammeled expansion for no end, falling under the sway of brahmin barons and caravan companies. Is this the future of the NCR? Mutant cows? Pitiful merchants, walking from place to place? No. We can make the American dream a reality, and revive the ideals of 2076.*

*Congress listened silently as Hayes gave his speech. "I will not sit here and say the Enclave was good. On the contrary, it was the gravest threat to California since between the Master and the Brotherhood, who were, of course, followed by the Legion. Truthfully," he chuckled, "we might save time to list our friends instead of our foes."

"But shall we cut off our nose to spite our face? Just as Caesar looks to one fallen empire, why shouldn't we? There is much we can learn from the remnants of the US government. And much we must learn, if we want to stand as tall as the Americans." Hayes paused, and adjusted his glasses. "Besides, what do we stand for, if not forgiveness? One of the promises of the Republic is that no one in the Wastes is beyond redemption, beyond hope. If we could forgive the super mutants, we can certainly forgive our fellow Californians."*

*The bar was full of chattering, as folks gossiped about their holiday plans. "Quiet down," cried the bartender. "The President is coming on!" At those words the a hush descended on the bar, as everyone turned their eyes to the new television. The screen flickered, and then he appeared! In living colour!

"Didn't I promise you that you wouldn't recognize the Republic when I was through?" Hayes smiled, to each and every Californian watching. "Now look at us! We sacrificed much. All gave some; and some gave all. But working together, the people of California avenged the Redding Massacre. We held the Dam. We liberated Vegas. What could possibly stop us now? Do not look back on what we've accomplished. Look forward to what we will do tomorrow. And a Happy Unification Day to you all!"

One Follower outside Vegas watched silently. "We may be going full speed ahead, but we're looking backwards the whole time." He kept that to himself, though. Such thoughts were not to be shared in the New American Republic.*

 id### Strength in the Face of Adversity

*Congress grew hushed in silence as President Kimball neared the podium. After the election of a new slate of Senators to the NCR Congress, it had become clear President Kimball had retained the support of the majority of the Senate. The Republic remained on a steady course, and all knew it.

"Senators, I truly am privileged that you have chosen me to continue representing the interests of the Republic for four more years. I vow to continue the work I started when I became the President of this fair Republic, and continue to fiercely defend her borders on all fronts. Over the past five years our Troopers have brought victory after victory across the Wasteland: from driving back the Brotherhood on the coat to pacifying the Mojave, and from ridding Baja of our enemies to securing our northern borders, the NCR's military continues to be the pride of the world."

Senators across the room murmured in support. Kimball's bullish, hardline military stances had indeed brought some security to a Republic long plagued by raiders and monsters.

"I sincerely promise, so long as I continue to command the support of this Senate and the people, to never yield in the face of an enemy to the Republic, within or without. Never again will we back down from defending our people, and never again shall we cut unjust deals. Under my next four years, I will expand our armed forces, centralise our bureaucracy, and expand our Republic to protect all!"

Cheers erupted across the hall, as Senators, guards and members of the public alike broke out in fierce applause. Clearly the President's continued hardline policies remain popular, but if the bodies continue to rack up, will they remain that way?*

*Tandi always lobbied for Reno to join the Republic, but we've always kept our distance. At long last, however, Kimball has presented a deal we cannot refuse. If we formally join the Republic, we will become the State of Reno. In return for these concessions, the Republic will amend the constitution to legalize prostitution and gambling, ensuring our security for decades to come.
