-[X] New Vegas Fiends
The initial attack on the Fiends goes well. By careful management of your forces and judicious use of ARCHIMEDES II a full quarter of their number are exterminated in a month of mobile warfare. Not only is the Fiend's southward expansion averted before they could reach Black Mountain, their assault on New Vegas is cut short by their heavy casualties.
Killed: 25% of New Vegas Fiends
Gained: Increased Potential Reputation (New Vegas)

-[X] Crashed Vertibird
The expedition to collect the Vertibird debris to your south nearly turns into a disaster. Luckily, the robotic ambush is annihilated with only minor injuries. Unfortunately, the black Enclave Power Armour in the Vertibird's cargo hold is damaged in the firefight. The vertibird itself is already too heavily damaged for the Paladins to make a difference.
Gained: Damaged Power Armour (Enclave)
Gained: Vertibird Wreckage
[X] New Enemies
The Lost Hills evacuation goes off almost perfectly. ARCHIMEDES II throws the NCR military into chaos as Black Mountain guides the refugees through the slightest chinks in the NCR entrapment. The return of the NCR rangers from the Baja is nearly disastrous, but they call off the pursuit upon the arrival of your Paladins, thinking them merely a vanguard for a larger force.
Is it at this point that things go wrong. Kimball proves obstinate in his refusal to allow evacuations while General Oliver's replacement proves himself substantially more competent, quickly reestablishing order. Elder Lyons manages to establish a ceasefire, but NCR forces continue to bar the gates of every surviving Brotherhood redoubt.

McNamara's plans to repair Hoover's civilian capabilities prove extremely effective. The generators are brought up to full power and enough space is cleared for multiple major projects. Hardin would like to build a repair facility to keep your equipment from deteriorating under your increased operational tempo while McNamara would like to build a hydroponics facility to secure your dwindling food supply.

The establishment of a salvage operation proves simple. The locals declare a willingness to work for bottle caps and you happen to have a couple crates on hand from an old recycling facility. They are briefly suspicious at the cleanliness of the caps, but you simply tell them the Codex requires all metal be shiny.
You will most likely have difficulty using the raw materials obtained with your current level of metallurgical knowledge, but you will still get some use from the increased metal supply once a basic processing center is established.

You disassemble and reverse-engineer a plethora of Pre-War ballistic and explosive weapons. They prove incredibly easy to make, understand, and maintain. Although their ammunition is more logistically taxing than energy cells, the weapons themselves are startlingly simple. While many of them are merely low-tech versions of existing weapons, some fulfill roles currently left empty. A weapon called the 'Pancor Jackhammer' proves excellent at close range engagements, filling the air with flechettes or breaching armour with explosive slugs. Plasma grenades are excellent at eliminating groups of enemies, but are often unwieldy to use in battle. A small half a kilogram grenade launcher can fire a 25mm plasma grenade up to 250m. A slightly larger launcher can fire a 40mm grenade 400m for a mere three times the weight.

While cataloging your previously retrieved medical technologies, you discover something astonishing. Among the many medical textbooks of questionable quality is a collection of hard drives. These hard drives contains the meticulous notes of a major pharmaceutical company's head researcher. Researching the standard practices of Pre-War medicine and deciphering the Dam's notes on radiation and genetics is becomes practical child play. However, the real treasure is his notes on the companies then current research programs. These begin with an arsenal of drugs meant to expand business from bacterial illness to viral diseases and radiation poisoning. They then continue with government contracted research to get injured soldiers and retired veterans back into battle. Finally, his notes contain data on an attempt to branch into security with Genetic Locks.

Well, it seems there's nothing else for it. Now we have to go all in and show no mercy to the NCR military and government. No more half measures.
When we do, we had better make it clear to the civilian population that we offered their leadership an opportunity to limit further bloodshed and that they refused.
@Isaacssv558, how do the NCR civilian base feel about this entire mess anyway? Generally?

Are you telling me our Paladins are now running around with 40mm underslung grenade launchers- doing a whole lot to effectively address the issue of always being outnumbered by inferior troops?
There's still the possibility of using the Enclave Armor/Vertibird to gain access to that Enclave Base that served as a regional flight hub. We may be able to avoid escalating the war further.

The weird part is that in Fallout 1 the Brotherhood used mostly conventional weaponry such as miniguns and missile launchers, and they manufactured their own energy weapons. I don't know where the New Vegas devs got the "uses only energy weapons and is incapable of building anything new" Brotherhood of Steel from.

I suggest we move a lot of people from lost hills to the dam and get the hydroponics up while also paying a visit to the plant vault

You realize the NCR gave you a ceasefire? A bare success means you just barely got them to agree to stop the shooting, getting them to allow evacuation will take additional actions. You can also decide to just carry through on your threat immediately, but it isn't your only option.
The NCR civilians have mixed feelings. They are heavily opposed to expeditions outside of California, but they also want someone to pay for what view as a series of unprovoked aggressions.
The 25mm ones can technically fit on the Paladin's forearm. (Actually doing so is somewhat unwieldy.) However, both versions are single shot only and your Paladins won't use them around potentially valuable technology.
EDIT: Also, grenades aren't much more effective when facing small groups of enemies. 5 Vipers at a gas station will die just as fast to a Paladin without a grenade as a Paladin with one. The exception is things like Deathclaws, which have massive individual HP. Your standard weaponry is already beyond most of the wasteland.
I'm interpreting it as different chapters having different practices and energy weapon manufacturing having been lost. Many of the Californian Chapters used ballistics, but all have run out of bullets and now rely entirely on recycled energy cells. As for the manufacturing, there is a reason the success rate on basic energy weapon tech is so high. The Brotherhood already has the knowledge, they've just gotten in a funk and refused to actually do anything with it.
Also, this is why I called the ballistics action "Old Classics". (Fallout Classic)
Relocating more of your military to the dam is the second part of Beaver Lodge. You will have multiple options to deal with your increased civilian pop.

With the influx of new members and the successful deescalation of the NCR conflict you finally have a chance to begin establishing your position as ruler of the Mojave.
Martial: 2 Actions (1 Elijah, +2 Hardin)
Diplomacy: 1 Action (0 Elijah, +1 McNamara)
Stewardship: 2 Actions (1 Elijah, +1 McNamara, +1 Lorenzo)
Learning: 4 Actions (2 Elijah, +1 Lorenzo, +1 Ibsen)

Martial: 2 Actions (1 Elijah, +2 Hardin)
[X] Promotion by Fire
With the necessity of maintaining a large number of strategically valuable outposts you find yourself in need of a better way to manage your garrisons. Rather than having each base run by a single figure, you will tie the garrisons into a single organization. Ramos will use his experience managing Hidden Valley to run this Department of Defense (DoD). Hardin will have his current duties as de-facto head of military expeditions formalized as head of the new Department of Offense (DoO). You will continue to head whichever missions seem likely to result in the mostloot valuable technology. Perhaps you should make a Department of Loot Technology (DoLT).
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 75%
Reward: Remove Leaderless Penalty. One military action locked to expeditionary actions only. Marks deployment range from edge rather than center of territory.
[Locked] Beaver Lodge
Hardin wants to make Hoover Dam into the Mojave Brotherhood's central military command. Between its power generating capabilities, the possibility of flooding, and secret research facilities, the Pre-War government deemed its safety of great import. As such, it has tremendous potential as a defensive fortification. The superstructure itself is made of reinforced concrete, while the interior is studded with security station and outfitted with a well-stocked armory. In addition, it has some basic radio equipment and multiple helicopter pads to allow coordination with other military hardpoints. Hardin intends to move the majority of your HELIOS garrison into the Dam.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 80%
Reward: Hoover Dam becomes a functioning military base.
[X] Operation: Divine Wrath
The California Brotherhood is capable of making good their own escape. They just need a distraction. Luckily for them, ARCHIMEDES II is the perfect distraction. The NCR military can't organize to stop the breakout if the organizers are all dead via orbital bombardment! Neither can the NCR Congress declare war after being incinerated by a giant laser!
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 60%
Reward: NCR in chaos, up to 6000 Brotherhood refugees. Escalated NCR-BoS war.
[X] Beyond the Pale
Black Mountain has given you the locations to many area just outside your current reach but full scouting will require a human expedition. (Location specific options will unlock as you acquire more FOBs.)
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 0%
Reward: Data on more distant location.
[X] Spoiling Attack
If you deem a faction to be a threat you can choose to launch a spoiling attack. This requires your subordinates to agree that the faction poses sufficient threat to warrant the attack. Unfortunately, the Legion proper is currently outside your range.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: Variable
Reward: Enemy Hurt, Loot Obtained
[X] Yardwork
The Mojave is currently infested with bandits and raiders. While no threat to the Brotherhood, they seriously impede the local wastelanders. Wiping them out would improve both the prosperity of the wasteland and the general perception of the Brotherhood.
-[X] Southeastern Vipers
The Vipers infest areas near to HELIOS and potentially endanger your economic and diplomatic initiatives.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 10% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Vipers purged from the area south of Novac.
-[X] Southwestern Jackals
The Jackals infest the area northeast of the NCR Outpost. Wiping them out would clear the way for the establishment of an anti-NCR front in the area.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 10% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Jackals purged from the area south of Goodsprings.
-[X] Western Great Khans
A place called Red Rock Canyon shelters raiders and drug makers. Eliminating them would both cut off an avenue of retreat for the main group and secure the area from raiders.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 20% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Great Khans purged from the area north of Goodsprings.
-[X] Northeastern Great Khans
The most organized group of raiders in the Mojave is based out of the town of Bitter-Springs. While they are strong for mere raiders, eliminating them would greatly strengthen your hold on the Mojave and potentially win you friends in that gaudy mess the locals call a city. In addition, it would help ensure clear supply lines to Hoover Dam.
Time: 2 Months
Chance: 10% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Great Khans purged from the area around Bitter Springs.
-[X] New Vegas Fiends
The Fiends are loosely organized at best but their drug use makes them dangerous fanatics that plague the nearby communities. Their sheer size, massive arsenal, and the numerous defensible locations they have occupied makes them an unusually tough target, but removing a threat to regional stability and acquiring their vault may be worth it.
Time: 3 Months
Chance: 6% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Fiends purged from the area around New Vegas.
[X] Magical Mystery Tour (Can be taken multiple times.)
There are many sites across the Mojave potentially filled with valuable technological relics. Send an expedition to one of them in hopes of great returns.

Between its power generating capabilities, the possibility of flooding, and secret research facilities, the Pre-War government deemed its safety of great import. As such, it has tremendous potential as a defensive fortification. The superstructure itself is made of reinforced concrete, while the interior is studded with security station and outfitted with a well-stocked armory. In addition, it has some basic radio equipment and multiple helicopter pads to allow coordination with other military hardpoints. Hardin intends to move the majority of your HELIOS garrison into the Dam.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 80%
Reward: Hoover Dam becomes a functioning military base.
[X] Operation: Divine Wrath
The California Brotherhood is capable of making good their own escape. They just need a distraction. Luckily for them, ARCHIMEDES II is the perfect distraction. The NCR military can't organize to stop the breakout if the organizers are all dead via orbital bombardment! Neither can the NCR Congress declare war after being incinerated by a giant laser!
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 60%
Reward: NCR in chaos, up to 6000 Brotherhood refugees. Escalated NCR-BoS war.
[X] Beyond the Pale
Black Mountain has given you the locations to many area just outside your current reach but full scouting will require a human expedition. (Location specific options will unlock as you acquire more FOBs.)
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 0%
Reward: Data on more distant location.
[X] Spoiling Attack
If you deem a faction to be a threat you can choose to launch a spoiling attack. This requires your subordinates to agree that the faction poses sufficient threat to warrant the attack. Unfortunately, the Legion proper is currently outside your range.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: Variable
Reward: Enemy Hurt, Loot Obtained
[X] Yardwork
The Mojave is currently infested with bandits and raiders. While no threat to the Brotherhood, they seriously impede the local wastelanders. Wiping them out would improve both the prosperity of the wasteland and the general perception of the Brotherhood.
-[X] Southeastern Vipers
The Vipers infest areas near to HELIOS and potentially endanger your economic and diplomatic initiatives.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 10% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Vipers purged from the area south of Novac.
-[X] Southwestern Jackals
The Jackals infest the area northeast of the NCR Outpost. Wiping them out would clear the way for the establishment of an anti-NCR front in the area.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 10% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Jackals purged from the area south of Goodsprings.
-[X] Western Great Khans
A place called Red Rock Canyon shelters raiders and drug makers. Eliminating them would both cut off an avenue of retreat for the main group and secure the area from raiders.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 20% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Great Khans purged from the area north of Goodsprings.
-[X] Northeastern Great Khans
The most organized group of raiders in the Mojave is based out of the town of Bitter-Springs. While they are strong for mere raiders, eliminating them would greatly strengthen your hold on the Mojave and potentially win you friends in that gaudy mess the locals call a city. In addition, it would help ensure clear supply lines to Hoover Dam.
Time: 2 Months
Chance: 10% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Great Khans purged from the area around Bitter Springs.
-[X] New Vegas Fiends
The Fiends are loosely organized at best but their drug use makes them dangerous fanatics that plague the nearby communities. Their sheer size, massive arsenal, and the numerous defensible locations they have occupied makes them an unusually tough target, but removing a threat to regional stability and acquiring their vault may be worth it.
Time: 3 Months
Chance: 6% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Fiends purged from the area around New Vegas.
[X] Magical Mystery Tour (Can be taken multiple times.)
There are many sites across the Mojave potentially filled with valuable technological relics. Send an expedition to one of them in hopes of great returns.
-[X] Yangtze Memorial
This Pre-War monument has a strange red sword stuck into a receptacle on the central pedestal. It looks fairly advanced and a team of Paladins could probably find a way to remove it.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 100% per 10 Paladins
Reward: A Strange Sword
-[X] Weather Monitoring Station
Seemingly an ordinary weather station, this strange facility seems to be atop a large vault. The only clue you have to the purpose of this vault is what appears to be a slot machine. Curious.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 0%
Reward: ???
-[X] Remnants Bunker
Your scouts have discovered a strange hatch leading to a well-secured Bunker. No one seems to be home, but you can't seem to get the door open.

This Pre-War company building may house useful robotics technologies.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 100% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Loot, Data, ???
-[X] H&H Tool Company
This Pre-War company building may house useful Pre-War tools which could be used to further your plans of industrializing the Brotherhood. Trading products to savages while keeping the technological secrets for yourself will definitely work, no matter what McNamara and Hardin say. It's not as if the wastelanders are intelligent enough to understand your work unaided.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 100% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Loot, Data, ???

-[X] Silver Peak Mine
You're scouts detected faint traces of the fusion isotopes released by leaking Fusion Packs near a mine. There's tech in them hills!
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 60% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Loot, Data, ???
-[X] Quarry Junction
Nope. Not worth it. No way you're sending Paladins to die fighting deathclaws just so you can have a bunch of rocks you don't have the manpower to utilize anyway.
-[X] Allied Technologies Office
You don't think there's anything here. However, the sign does say "Technologies".
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 100% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Loot, Data, ???
-[X] Deathclaw Promontory
Normally you wouldn't risk your men against deathclaws. However, there seems to be an active radio present at this particular nest. More importantly, it isn't a type the Black Mountain database is familiar with. This could mean jury-rigged worthlessness... or it could mean Enclave tech.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 15% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Loot, ???

One of your scouts saw a mercenary with an advanced Gauss Rifle. You should track him down and repossess it.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 50% per 10 Paladins
Reward: Loot, ???
-[X] Nellis Air Force Base
The farthest of Hardin's scouting parties have discovered an old Air Force Base filled to brim with weaponry, supplies, and technology. It is also filled to the brim with trigger-happy maniacs armed with explosives, artillery, and even a few suits of Power Armour. An attack could liberate their weapons, but would permanently alienate a powerful faction and be extremely costly in both lives and material.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 5% per 10 Paladins assigned.
Reward: Loot, Explosives, ??? Power Armour, More Explosives, ???.
-[X] Crashed B-29
The scans you conducted via the Black Mountain facility have revealed something interesting. Lake Mead contains a nearly intact Pre-War Bomber. You probably won't be repairing it any time soon, but it would still be a valuable source of technology.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 100% per 10 Paladins assigned.
Reward: Mostly Intact B-29.
-[X] REPCONN HQ

[X] Stalemate
Kimball is highly reluctant to allow any further Brotherhood and the newly promoted General Hsu is extremely competent. However, that same competency might allow him to see reason and convince Kimball to see reason and acknowledge your ability to kill both them and their families with the press of a button. Owyn says you shouldn't mention your ability to kill their families, even if you do know the exact capabilities of ARCHIMEDES II. You're fairly sure he's just envious of your ability to recover a superweapon without giving it to your enemies and getting your entire chapter killed in the attempt.
Time: 6 Months

[X] Bunker Bunking
With the recent influx of refugees the Hidden Valley bunker has become overcrowded. McNamara want to convert the areas Hardin has excavated into additional residential area. This will use an Empty Slot, but will allow civilians to stop sharing bunks. Cannot be taken with Fires of Industry.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 90%
Reward: Hidden Valley can accommodate up to 2000 civilians.
[X] Buying Happiness
Local survivor population generally have fewer resources than you. Establishing trade and giving cheap aid will greatly improve your local standing.

Reward: Improved relations and trade with target settlement. May eventually provide additional supplies and recruits.

Time: 3 Months
Chance: 1%
Reward: Brotherhood begins organizing trading caravans.
[X] Scrap Yard
The Scrap Yard north of Novac is filled with raw materials and even the occasional useful gadget. While you lack the manpower to exploit it yourself, the population of the nearby town could be hired to handle on-site labour, lessening the load on your engineers. Of course, you'd still need a way to refine the scrap into something usable.
Time: 1 Month
Chance: 60%
Reward: Source of raw materials.
[X] Gold Diggers
The Brotherhood currently lacks sources of raw materials other than salvage. Perhaps it is time to change this? At the very least, you could probably find some less valuable salvage to break down. If only you had the manpower to actually run such an operation...

[X] Rapid Fire GLORIOUS SOLAR BULLSHIT!
With HELIOS ONE fully operation and Hoover Dam in your possession, you can increase the electrical throughput significantly. While this has the potential to reduce ARCHIMEDES II's charge time to as little as 2 hours, it is not without difficulties. While ARCHIMEDES II can handle the power input, HELIOS ONE is incapable of transmitting more than 400MW and you'd need a lot of cabling to connect it to Hoover Dam.
Time: 3 Months
Chance: 50%
Reward: ARCHIMEDES II charge time reduced proportional to Hoover Dam's power output.
[X] Sifting Through the Ashes
Much knowledge was lost when the Old World fell. However, much yet remains in rotting tomes and rusting computer systems.

Note: Leaderless bases cannot be used in actions, they lack any use beyond holding a specific piece of land. This planning phase will give you an action to improve organization of hero-less bases.
Note 2: You are currently running low on food, but the stockpile of rations will hold that problem off for one turn.
Note 3: You have gotten your first major upgrade to combat capabilities a bit early. This will increase odds on certain missions. It will not increase odds on all missions, as upgrades generally do not enhance all combat roles simultaneously.

Depends how well you roll. A bare success wouldn't be done in time. A major success would be done in time to lower the time to 1 month. A crit would be equivalent to finishing the research before starting.

Excellent
Whats the situation with our brothers in California? Are they able to survive on their own for any sort of time without negative consequences or do we need to evacuate them as soon as possible? Whats their supply situation like?

Yeah I was hoping for more from that too, what we got is okay considering how we rolled but getting more would have been incredibly nice.

Their supply situation will be fine until Turn 12, after which about a quarter will starve each of the next two years. At that point their supply situation will stabilize for the near future.
A bare success wasn't enough. That said, you got the Vertibird plans and can research them with a larger facility.
