From The Inside We Will Fall, Act 2 of the Deserters AU, is now posted in full!

Damianus and Marius–Dixie Greene and Alex Rojas, to those not in the Legion–have been charged by Caesar himself to do his bidding in the Mojave desert, undermining the NCR and swaying as many factions as they can to support his war on the West. It should be second nature to Dixie, wholly devoted to the Legion’s cause, and iron-willed enough to see his duty to the end. He’s sacrificed too much to let himself fail now, even as his faith in the Son of Mars is tested at every turn.

But Marius, already under suspicion of treason, has his reservations and isn’t shy about sharing them. But it’s more than idealism driving him…The longer he spends with Dixie, the less he can imagine being apart from him–and the more he suspects Dixie feels the same, despite the Legion’s laws.

And the deeper they go into Caesar’s machinations, the less time they have to reckon with anything that might lie between them, never mind the war looming over their heads…

75k, warnings for canon-typical violence and mild ‘we live in a society’-type fretting about the boys’  relationship…But mostly a lot of pining, the two of them being idiots, and How Much The Legion Sucks

an old Soviet “Walking Excavator”

I was trying to start a “#Goodsprings Revival 2K19″ thing today to get people posting content celebrating their and their friends’ Courier Sixes on this, the day the Courier arose from the grave, but there’s been a lot going on so I may not be able to contribute a whole lot.

But if I only make time for one pic of a Courier whomst I love, my friend @meanoldauthor‘s Courier Adal, aka Everybody’s Wasteland Mom, is worth it and this is your semi-regular nudge to go to their AO3 and consume lots of fic about this here good mom in the Mean Old Lady series.

I had a wild hair about “Logically, no two sets of centurion armor would look the same” and my hand slipped

“Your death has sealed the fate of everyone else on Earth. The Enclave triumphs, releasing the FEV virus into the atmosphere. Millions die, and the Earth falls silent… again.”

fallout 2..Useful and great companions who I love…

And companions who just suck (except like pariah dog who is pardoned because he is still doggo) 

Hi hey this is Armitage, who is: 1. Willing to doctor you, regardless of your faction 2. Willing to blacklist you, if you decide to be a dick about the above 3. Loath to kill, but knows more about the function of joints and application of leverage than you do 4. Thrilled to be on a circuit of “scuffles, sniffles, and sprogs” after spending half a year holding a quarantine zone 5. Not happy that things are looking to be far more complicated than the above

Goodies from the wasteland!

Atomic Annie — The M65 Atomic Cannon,

Designed in 1949 by the American Engineer Robert Schwarz, the M65 “Atomic Annie” was inspired by German railway guns used during World War II.  The M65 however, was designed to deliver a nuclear payload to its target.  The gun and carriage itself weighed around 85 tons, was manned by a crew of 5-7, and was transported by two specially designed towing tractors.  At 280mm in caliber and capable of firing a projectile over 20 miles, the gun was certainly powerful enough as a conventional weapon, but the Atomic Annie was certainly no conventional weapon.  In 1953 it was tested for the first time at the Nevada Test Site, where it fired a 15 kiloton nuclear warhead, creating a blast similar in size to the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.  

After the successful test, 20 M65 cannons were produced for the US Army and deployed in Europe and Korea.  They were almost always in constant motion so the Soviets never knew where they were and could not target them.  While an interesting weapon, the Atomic Annie suffered from limited range, especially after the development of ballistic missiles which could strike a target from thousands of miles away.  The last M65 Atomic Cannon was retired in 1963.  Today only 8 survive, and are displayed in museums across the country.
