On a side note, I also got
the chance to play the Fallout board game with a friend a week later,
and when we were about halfway through, his son joined us as well. It
was a really interesting dynamic to play the game with other players
on the board! One hilarious moment was when his son began the game
and literally went right to Vault 84, which my friend and I had been
wandering around the map looking for, for at least 1 hour! That Vault
had been right next to the beginning tile, and we'd totally walked
right past it, even though the area was revealed! Since the three of
us were competing to gain the most influence, sometimes we'd
coordinate...but more often, we'd try to sabotage each other. For
instance, I led a pack of raiders, a super mutant, and some enlarged
rad-bugs after me--they move towards the closest player--and then ran
past my friend, leaving him surrounded the next round by a bunch of
enemies. Despite his insanely tough power armor, (which thankfully
makes him a slow runner, too, haha!) he actually took a lot of damage
from the enemies and had to spend time camping to heal up. Meanwhile,
I got ahead of him and was able to complete a few quests before he
could. We never finished our game together because of work, but I
certainly had a solid head start on him! I'm looking forward to
trying the Fallout board game with friends again when I get a chance!
As seven alien races struggle to co-exist in an uneasy alliance, the Inter-Stellar Union sends Union Guard agents on missions to preserve the crucial balance. These specialized operatives must do what regional security cannot, dealing with smugglers, pirates, terrorists, and even greater challenges in order to bring stability to a universe that needs it desperately. Without the Union Guard, the races will not be prepared to face a looming alien threat they can only hope to defeat together.
