Revision as of 18:42, 31 March 2014
 | The following is based on information from Fallout Tactics. |
|---|
Chicago was a city located in Illinois. It was nearly completely destroyed in the Great War and the few that survived the bombs now live mostly in small tribal villages near the former city.
Background
Some time after the defeat of the Master in 2162, the Brotherhood of Steel constructed airships and dispatched some of its soldiers East, to track down and assess the extent of the remaining super mutant threat. However, a great storm broke the main airship and flung it far from its course. The other airships were torn apart and lost.
The mighty airship was badly damaged. The meteorological disturbances were so intense that sections of the craft were wrenched free of the ship and lost, leading to casualties among those onboard. Even the leaders of the expedition were not spared, with many of them being lost, including Paladin Latham. The survivors managed to keep their battered ship aloft, but eventually they came down on the ruined city's outskirts. Those who made it clear of the wreck eventually formed an organization called the Midwestern Brotherhood of Steel, which diverged greatly from the ideals of the original Brotherhood of Steel. In time, they established a harsh rule over the towns and villages near Chicago, controlled from Bunker Alpha. The sky over the city is always dark and stormy, and the city seems to be completely deserted.
In the decades following the war with Gammorin's Army and the war with the Calculator, the Midwestern Brotherhood slowly collapsed[verification overdue], and the entirety of the organization regrouped at Chicago[verification overdue]. After the Destruction of Control Station ENCLAVE[verification overdue] in 2242, an Enclave force that fled the oil rig landed in Chicago and set up outposts within the ruins. Nothing more is known about the Enclave's presence in Chicago, however, it can be assumed there is conflict between them and the Brotherhood.
