Without a leader, and hopeless they turned to the Legion, who promised salvation and strength. Many of these Enclave were young and naive soldiers, but ultimately joined.

Since then, the BoS East have helped the people of the Capital Wasteland as much as possible, taking over Adams Air Force Base as well as having permanent sites across the Capital Wasteland. The Enclave is almost nowhere to be seen. It has been two years since the defeat of the Legion and the First Battle of Hoover Dam. The NCR have continued to patrol the Mojave, hoping to keep it from the Legion's hands. Since this defeat, Caesar has sent his son, Caesar II, across the country to the Capital Wasteland with a legion of 500 men. His mission, find something that could win the war. Caesar II finds something, and it happens to be the Enclave, or what's left of them. The Enclave secede into the Legion's ranks, Caesar II allowing them to remain as a sud-division, allowing the use of technology. And thus, with the use of the Enclave's vertibirds, the Legion is able to spread units and supplies to and from the Mojave/Capital Wasteland. The NCR see Legion activity rise. And the BoS West, see the same. A three-way war begins to boil. ************************************************** Post your character sheets and I will get the ball rolling!

And Depending on which BoS you chose, either the Mojave or Capital Wasteland. ************************************************** Caesar II [SHEET]Name: Edward Sallow II Alias: Caesar II Sex: M Age: 27 Rank: Legate Traits: Short black hair, 5'11", strong, muscular, physically fit.

Once the permanent capital of the Legion was founded in 2255, Caesar II was protected round the clock by Praetorians and quickly learned how to use weapons of all style. He was only five years old. He fancied unarmed combat and was shown the ropes by his father. Caesar II is a very influential person in the Legion. He inspires troops, trains troops, and has a way with the slave girls. Caesar II was promised to lead the First Battle of Hoover Dam, but this was taken away after Legate Graham showed clear signs of concern. In the end, he was right. As Caesar II watched many Legion soldiers die by the hands of the NCR he vowed revenge. He asked his father for a party of 500 men and an expedition East. His father granted the expedition.

Colonel Traits: 6'2", 215 pounds, short black hair. Cunning, Strategical, excellent marksman, Weapons: Battle Rifle (M1 Garand), 9mm gold-plated pistol Back story: Achilles was born in 2226 in the city of Owen's Lake. Much like an average child in Owen's Lake, Achilles was There, he joined the NCR at age 16 to get away from the life that he had, the average and most boring life. Achilles was an excellent soldier and was able to progress through the ranks quickly. Achilles participated in the NCR-Enclave War in 2246, at the rank of Staff Sergeant. The ultimate goal of this war was to eradicate the Enclave in the Core Region. Achilles led a squad of NCR troopers into the Core Region with a squad of Brotherhood soldiers, as the two had bilateral relations at the time. The NCR had entered Navarro, (later that year) in an attempt to raid and sack the city, destroying the Enclave in the area. Achilles was able to find and eliminate many pockets of Enclave resistance in the area with the two squads that he had, allowing him to continue his command. During these months, Achilles grew close to members in his squad and the Brotherhood squad he fought with. Synchronized, efficient, the two squads made excellent killing machines. However, once full scale war broke out in 2247 with the Brotherhood, Achilles was forced to face his friends in combat. Battle after battle caused hundreds of NCR troopers to die, yet with each day his squad was able to survive from his uncanny leadership. By 2267, after 20 long years of fighting the Brotherhood and his movement from the Core Region to the Mojave, Achilles was promoted to Lt. Colonel after the beginning of The NCR-Raiders War. The NCR needed experienced soldiers to lead his men into battle against Raiders and Brotherhood alike, and it was here that Achilles was promoted. Three years later, in 2270, Achilles participated in the "Pacification of the Mojave" at Bullhead City. Under General Aaron Kimball, Colonel Achilles led a large contingent of men against hundreds of raiders. Wave after wave, his line held, eventually becoming a falling back point for NCR troopers. It is here when Achilles saves Kimball's life from a large Raider attack. Kimball was checking up on his line when his convoy was ambushed by a large amount of raiders. Achilles led a counterattack and rescued Kimball from the Raiders. Here, the 9mm gold-plated pistol (that he keeps at his side at all times) is found lying in the dirt next to a young raider. Achilles takes the pistol, keeping it as a momentum for years to come. Six years later, the now Brigadier General Achilles plans Operation: SUNBURST, setting Colonel Moore in charge of the operation, yet remaining close by for assistance. The records indicate Colonel Moore leading the Operation, but Achilles had a large factor in the attack. With Operation SUNBURST a success, Brigadier General Achilles is promoted to Lt. General Achilles, and given the great task of being the right hand man in the Mojave. Faction/Affiliation: NCR [/SHEET]
