### The Gecko uprising

After decades of discrimination, the ghoul residents of Gecko rise up in revolt, led by Festus and aim to take over the utopian city. The Vault city goverment is split on how to deal with this problem. Security Chief Wallace suggests declaring military law while First citizen Lynette urges the use of diplomacy. Meanwhile the ground shakes and the mutant molerat hords led by Brain surge into the city. Who will prevail?

The choices in this event decide which part of the focus tree can be folowed next, while locking other parts.

While the choices change the country leader, none of them have any bonuses asociated with them.

## The Servants question

The servants are not true citizens of Vault City, they are those who came from the wide wasteland to look for beter future inside the walls of the city, even if entry costs their freedom. Recently however these "Indentured servants" demand better treatement.

## Trivia and bugs

* The Stocked Armouries - Lasers choice triggers Watz Shipments event. This event adds the aforementioned 1000 basic energy weapons. This event is minor so i did not write it as a seperate event.
* The Watz Shipments events has an error in localization, and talks about 2000 weapons in one sentence, 1000 in the other sentence, while it adds only 1000.
* The servant question focus tree speaks of slave exploitation, this might be a ralic from earlier versions or just a nonexistent feature, as i can not find what it actualy does. (Please check / clarify)
