FALLOUT 2
EVIL WALK-THROUGH
Version 1.3

Well there are some walk-throughs for this game, but they are all for good
characters, who do all the quests for good guys and get really high karma. 
This walk-through is for evil characters, who will only do evil things, unless
there is a huge advantage to be made.  If there is a good way and an evil way
to complete something, this walk-through will do it the evil way.  So if you
are scared of being evil or something, you probably won't want to actually use
this.  But everyone should complete the game at least once to see what being
evil in Fallout 2 is like.  This faq assumes that you know how everything works
and how to play the game properly.  It is recommended that you have finished
the game at least 1 or 2 times.

This is based on the Australian version of the game, and it isn't patched.  The
game being patched wouldn't make much difference with relation to these evil
quests.

This is my first walk-through, but because I like Fallout 2 so much, and no one
had made an evil walk-through, I decided to make one.

Note:  This is for the truly evil characters.  You are not a truly evil
character if all you do is go and do all the good quests, and come back and
then slaughter the towns afterwards.  Slaughtering the towns is stupid, and is
for dumb evil characters.  If you do all the good quests, you are a good
character.  If you do any good quests that make a good ending, you are banished
from evil land to a good person.  This walk through is for the truly evil
character of course.  None of that slaughtering in here, unless they attack you
first, for a good reason.  Getting caught stealing and then slaughtering them,
or making a conversation and then getting into a fight are NOT good reasons.

IF YOU SEE ANYTHING I'VE MISSED SO FAR, PLEASE EMAIL ME SO I CAN PUT IT ON
HERE!  I'll put your name in the credits of course.

CHARACTER

A truly evil character will do as many evil things as possible.  Therefore you
have to min-max the stats so that you can receive the most quests and still be
able to kill properly.

STATISTICS:
Strength: 5.  This is enough, because the advanced power armour gives +4 to
strength, which gives 9.  Then you can get the +1 module to take it up to 10. 
Strength isn't really that important, unless you are going to be a melee or
HtH.  But it's good to have 10 anyway, so all the weapons can be used without
skill drop.

Perception: 6.  The best thing about perception is the sniper perk, which you
get at level 24, and you need 8 perception for.  You can get the gain
perception perk to add +1, and the perception module found in the military base
adds +1 also, so you get the 8 needed for the sniper perk.  Perception also
helps with distance shooting, but you can just get a sniper rifle or a high
weapon skill instead.

Endurance: 4.  This controls how much hp you start with and get per level.  The
two important perks from endurance are lifegiver and toughness.  Lifegiver only
needs 4 endurance, but if you want toughness, you'll have to swallow some
buffout.

Charisma: 7.  Charisma is mainly important for the number of NPCs you can get,
and also the speech skill, so you want it earlier on.  The sunglasses, the
memory module and the gain charisma will get it up to 10.  If you don't want
the power armor at the start, you can have whatever you want.

Intelligence: 8.  Intelligence is probably the most important, because of the
dialogue options, the skill points and all the skills that use it.  The gain
intelligence perk raises it by 1, but because you are a slaver you will miss
out on the memory module for it.  If you are a bit unlucky or lucky, you will
get an extra point from the hubologists.

Agility: 8.  This gives you 9 AP, and for 10 AP, you need 10 AP, so you
probably shouldn't do that.  Agility is also important for combat skills, and
you need 8 agility for the slayer and sniper perks.  9 AP is pretty good and
can be upgraded to 11 AP if you get two levels of action boy, but you don't
really need it.

Luck: 9.  The main reason this is so high is because Vault City citizens need
to be lucky to pass the test.  High luck is also very useful for the sniper
perk, and perhaps slayer, and it will help you find random encounters.  But if
you don't care about being a citizen, take this down to 6 and put the points
elsewhere.  You can gain luck if you want to take it to 10, which will get you
a critical hit every shot with sniper.  Or you can lower it to 8, and get gain
luck, or lower it to 7 and hope the hubologists give you +2 to luck, but that's
pretty risky.

So summed up:
Str: 5
Per: 6
End: 4
Cha: 7
Int: 8
Agi: 8
Luck: 9

TRAITS:
Gifted:  The true evil character should have this.  It gives +1 to all stats. 
You would already know that though.
Fast Shot:  It depends what weapons you want to specialise in.  If you want big
guns, take it.  Anything else don't take it, because it stuffs up unarmed and
HtH aimed shots.
Finesse:  Not really useful to me, but other people like it, so if you want it,
take it.
Sex Appeal:  This isn't really that good, and my guess is it gives +1 charisma
to the opposite sex, and -1 to the same sex.  So if you don't want anything
else, take this.
Bruiser:  Gives you an extra 2 points, but lowers AP by 2.  If you take it, put
it back onto agility to get back to 8 AP, and then you have higher skills in
combat, and can get some more perks.  I wouldn't do it though.
Fast Metabolism:  You can heal quicker.  There isn't really any time limit
(except the 13 years), so you have unlimited time to heal almost.  But you
don't really need poison or radiation resistance.  So get it if you want.
One Hander:  The main one handed weapon that you'll use is the gauss pistol. 
There isn't that much use for this.
The other traits aren't useful to me.

Summed up:
Gifted
Sex Appeal

SKILLS:
Small guns:  This or big guns should be tagged, as your main combat skill.  The
best small guns are the gauss pistol and gauss rifle.  You have small guns for
most of the game, so this is pretty useful.  But since you might be doing it
the evil way, you can pick up big guns at the start, but you'll run out of
ammo.  The "Guns and Bullets" magazines increase small guns skill, but are
pretty rare.

Big guns:  This or small guns will be tagged.  The best guns here are the bozar
and the vindicator minigun.  The bozar ammo is easy to find, so you'll be able
to use it straight away when you get it (but that probably won't be until ncr).

Energy weapons:  This would have been good if you got energy weapons at the
start, when the enemy isn't wearing power armour.  This would still be alright
though, but only after you have the sniper perk, as the critical hits will
probably go through the power armour.  I don't like it that much though.

Unarmed:  This is for fighting with no weapons or glove weapons, the most
powerful being the mega power fist.  This is also used in a couple of quests,
the New Reno boxing and San Fran fighting.  Don't put any points in this until
you get trained by Lo Pan.  He can put you up to nearly 100% with it.

Melee:  Melee fighting uses Hand to Hand weapons, like spears, sledgehammers,
cattle prods and so on.  The weapons are usually a bit better than unarmed
weapons, but you don't need them for any quests, so they aren't as useful.

Throwing:  Throwing weapons are not that useful unless you are facing a group
of unarmored people.  The best use for the throwing skill in my opinion are the
electromagnetic pulse grenades, when you use them in the Sierra Army Depot
against the robots.  But since you won't be going there, you don't need this
skill.

First Aid:  It lets you heal people.  Don't spend any skill points on it,
because doctor is used for some quests, and it does pretty much the same thing,
but better.  You can also find many books that will increase first aid.  But
you can use the first aid field medic kit to increase the chance of healing the
most.

Doctor:  Doctor is first aid with the ability to heal crippled limbs.  Doctor
is also used in some quests, mainly ones in Vault City.  I think you need over
80% doctor to find out about combat implants, which give you damage resistance.

Sneak:  Sneak lets you walk around without being detected, and lets you kill
people without others hearing, and might help with the steal skill, but I'm
unsure of that. Sneaking is pretty useful because your going to assassinate
people with your gun, so I got it up to 80% or so.

Steal:  Perhaps the most useful non combat skill.  Stealing gives you lots of
good items, and a little bit of experience.  Use this skill all the time, but
remember to save first.

Lockpick:  This is another very useful skill.  It lets you open locks with
either lock picks or your hands.  The higher your skill in it, the more chance
you have of picking the lock.  You can pick most locks with around 50% pick
locks skill and with Mk II lock picks.  You don't get the Mk II lock picks for
ages though.  So get it up to 70% or something.

Traps:  Traps help you disarm the traps mainly.  It isn't really used for
quests.  With power armor you don't really need to disarm traps, because they
will do hardly any damage.  It lets you set traps also.  You need to have say
around 80% to assassinate Bishop properly.  But since traps aren't really that
useful, you probably won't get it up that high.  If you are planning on
assassinating Bishop, you need high repair skills too.

Science:  Science is a pretty good skill, that is pretty useful, as it lets you
hack into computers with success, and talk about scientific stuff with other
scientists, and to examine things before you repair them.  It's not very useful
at the start of the game, but as you progress, it is used more.  Myron the NPC
has science for a skill, so he can do scientific such like examining things
scientifically, but not hacking into computers.  You should probably get it to
about 80 or 90 for New Reno.  You need 75% science skill to get Myron to make
super stimpacks.  The "Big Book of Science" increases this skill, but they are
pretty rare.

Repair:  This lets you "repair".  You can repair power generators, and also
laser barrier generators, which turns them off.  It also helps you rig a
certain safe.  You can upgrade it with "Dean's Electronics" books.  Those books
are pretty common.  You don't need to put any points into it, because Vic can
repair stuff for you.  But if you want to assassinate Bishop you need 80%.

Speech:  This is the talking skill.  The more you have, the better chance you
have of lying, and being believed.  Or people take you seriously at least when
you are telling the truth.  You'll want to tag it because it's used for heaps
of quests, and it gets you better stuff when you're talking.  Once it's up to
100 or so you don't really need to increase it any more.

Barter:  Barter lowers the price of the merchants goods.  The price of yours
stay the same.  Barter isn't that effective, so you don't really need to put it
up high.  I think the barter skill is used when you buy special stuff when you
are talking, like the vault recognition module and the car from the Chop Shop. 
But that doesn't happen very often.  Your barter skill won't get the merchants
prices any where near yours, and most of the time you can just steal instead of
barter.  You probably shouldn't waste points on this skill.

Gambling:  This determines how good you are at gambling on the slot machines
and on the roulette table.  With 100 skill you win on the $5 slots, but not the
$25.  You should either invest in this skill a lot, or not at all.  If you know
craps, you can play that with around 30 skill.  Since you are lucky, your
gambling level will already be pretty high.  It's up to you what you want to do
with this skill.

Outdoorsman:  It lets you avoid random encounters.  Don't tag it or put points
on it because in Klamath smiley will upgrade it for free, to at least 103% (I
stopped there).  There is lots of books for it, but they won't do any good
because your skill will be too high for them.

PERKS:
When I had finished the game, these are what I had:
 ::: Perks :::
  Awareness
  Bonus Rate of Fire
  Better Criticals
  Sniper
  Lifegiver
  Pickpocket
  Swift Learner
  Tag!
  Gecko Skinning
  Dermal Impact Armor
  Phoenix Armor Implants
  Expert Excrement Expeditor

The order I got them was:
3) Swift Learner
6) Awareness
9) Better Criticals
12) Tag!
15) Bonus Rate of Fire
18) Lifegiver
21) Pickpocket
24) Sniper

Swift Learner was chosen first, but that was a bad decision.  5% experience is
only 5000 experience for every 100,000 you get.  And you only get up to 300,000
experience.  So choose a better perk than that.

Awareness was chosen because it's good to know what weapons and health the
enemy has.  It's a good choice.

Better Criticals is one of the best perks, it means that the table that it is
rolled on will be 20% better.  I think the table would be something like this:

>30% = 2x damage
30%-45% = 3x damage
45%-60% = no armour
60%-70% = 2x damage without armour
70%-80% = 3x damage without armour
80%-90% = 2x damage without armour + cripple
90%< = 3x damage without armour + cripple

I just made that up, but I think it would be something like that.  This is
rolled after you hit.  With Better Criticals it would add 20%, so you would get
good stuff a lot more.

Tag! Puts equal skill points onto a skill you choose.  So if 100 points have
been put onto a skill, another 100 will be added.  Then the skill increases
twice as fast.  But once you've tagged a skill, straight away you can take all
the points that were just on it off, and then put them elsewhere.  This is what
I did with outdoorsman, because it was at 103% from training with Smiley.  I
put it onto traps, science and repair.

Bonus Rate of Fire lets you fire quicker by 1 AP.  It's one of the best perks.

Lifegiver gives you an extra 4HP, and an extra 4HP every level after.  So that
means you get 8HP per level, which means you'll have heaps of HP by the end. 
If you take this at level 12 instead, you'll have an extra 24 HP by level 18. 
If you plan to spend lots of time levelling up in the wastes, take this
earlier, and take the second level of this the next perk level.  Then you'll
get 12HP per level.

Pickpocket lets you steal items more easily.  So you can steal stuff from those
San Fran guards even when they look straight at you.  It also counts really
heavy stuff as really light when stealing.  I just took this because I wanted
to steal some stuff.  Taking something else is recommended.

Sniper is one of the best perks, especially when you have luck 10.  I am not
sure if it rolls a 100-sided dice, and then puts your luck as a percentage (10
luck is 95%), or it rolls 2 6-sided dice.  I think it would be the former
though, as the latter would get no criticals if the character had luck 1.  I
think it might add your critical chance to the percentage as well, but it can't
go over 95%.

Other perks are good too.  People like Sharpshooter for some reason, but I
never pick it.  Toughness is really good, if you take all three levels of it
you will have an extra 30% damage resistance, so you'll have about 80% at the
end of the game without drugs.  Slayer is good too, but you can only get that
at level 24 and above.  It's supposed to give you a critical hit every time.  I
never take it so I'm not sure.  The Gain ability skills are ok, but you don't
really need stats that are that high.  If you had low agility though, Gain
Agility is good.  Like Bonus Rate of Fire, Bonus HtH attacks is really good. 
Pick it if you like to fight HtH.  Action boy and many others are good, so pick
whatever you want.

SPECIAL PERKS

Expert Excrement Expeditor:  Shovel crap at Broken Hills 5 times, and you get
this perk that gives you +5 to speech.

Dermal Impact Armour/Enhancements:  These give you +5% damage resistance for
normal and explosion.  The enhancements give you +10%.  Get them after reading
about them in Vault City in their medical computer with 80% doctor skill.  You
can buy them from Vault City and other places for heaps of money.  The
enhancements give you -1 charisma.

Pheonix Armour Implants/Enhancements:  These give you +5% damage resistance for
fire, plasma and laser attacks.  The enhancements give you +10%. Get them after
reading about them in Vault City in their medical computer with 80% doctor
skill.  You can buy them from Vault City and other places for heaps of money. 
The enhancements give you -1 charisma.

Vault City Inoculations:  If you are radiated and poisoned and talk to Dr Troy
he does something for you and you get this perk which gives you resistance. 
I've never got it, and evil people won't get it.

Vault City Training:  Jason Ballin says that if you have a high doctor skill
you can talk to Dr Troy and then he will take you on a tour which gives you
extra doctor, first aid and possibly science skill.

Flower Child:  Jason Ballin told me stuff about this one.  It gives you 50%
more resistance to being addicted to drugs, and he says it can be gotten in
Fallout 2, but he got it after finishing the game, after he used Father Tully's
cheat book.

Animal Friend:  Jason Ballin says this is in Fallout 2 as well, but he got it
after finishing the game.  It lets you automatically be friendly with any
animals in random encounters.  Animals are probably geckos, dogs, manti, not
deathclaws, aliens, floaters, centaurs, and some other ones.

Gecko Skinning:  Talk to Smiley after rescuing him and he teaches it to you. 
It lets you skin silver and golden geckos.

KARMIC TRAITS

Childkiller:  You get this when you kill one child.  Don't get this the stupid
way, by killing kids in cities, just kill the kids in random encounters.  It's
much more evil.  And isn't stupid.

Berserker:  Just slaughter lots of defensive people in a town.  You're sure to
get it in San Fran if you don't get it anywhere else.  Slaughtering towns just
because you like to slaughter is stupid, so don't do it.  You need a REALLY
good reason to do that, such as they are attacking you and you can't do
anything about it.

Married/Divorced:  You can get married in Modoc, to either Miria or Davin.  You
can get divorced in New Reno, by giving Father Tully some booze.

Slaver:  Become a slaver in the Den, and then you lose lots of quests in the
game.  But if you aren't a slaver you aren't truly evil, so get it straight
away after you sell Sulik into slavery.

Prizefighter:  Just beat up people at the boxing ring for this one.  You're
supposed to get better unarmed skill, 12 to normal damage resistance and some
other stuff, but it never works for me.

Porn Star:  Become a porn star in Golden Globes Porn, New Reno.  You need 8
endurance, 8 charisma and 8 agility.  You get money and become a celebrity in
New Reno for it.  Party members supposedly leave you but it never happened to
me.

Grave Digger:  All evil people are grave diggers.  Most of the good ones are
too.  DIG ALL GRAVES!  Sometimes they give you good stuff, and they give you -5
karma each grave dug.  Yay for negative karma.

Sexpert:  Just have sex enough and I think you get this trait.  You can get
this one pretty quickly if you screw everyone you possibly can.

Gigolo:  You get this for having sex and abnormal things happen.  Like with
T-Ray when he blows up, when you get caught in Modoc and in Broken Hills with
Francis.  I'm not sure though.

Made Man: Bishop/Salvatore/Wright/Mordino:  Made Man of a family gives you free
time at the Cat's Paw, and discounts off items at certain shops.  Only good
people are made men of the Wrights, and evil people are with other families.

Champion:  Boo the champions.  They are the positive karma people who do all
the good stuff.  You definitely won't get this karmic trait.

TIPS:
These are the main things to collect, other than the obvious stuff that you
would usually collect:
Broc Flowers and Xander Roots and empty hypos, for stimpacks.
Fruit and Nuka Cola, for super stimpacks.
All alcohol, for lowering enemy perception.
All drugs, most are useful.

Best places to aim when shooting:
I like to aim for the eyes to do damage, and if enemies are running away, aim
for the legs.  If the enemy is using a really big gun, aim for the arms, and if
it is aiming for the groin can knock people out, but there isn't as much chance
of knocking them out as hitting someone in the head.

The way the critical hit chance works is this (I think):
(critical chance + percentage lost for aiming) / chance to hit
So if your aiming for the eyes and have a 95% chance to hit with a 9 % critical
hit chance, you have a 9 + 60 / 95 = 72% chance.  That's why in the beginning
of the game if you have a 50 % chance to hit and a 10% chance critical hit,
instead of getting a critical every 10th hit, you get one every 20th.

Shopkeepers:
With some shopkeepers, you can purchase items for cash, and then steal the cash
back from their person.  This works with the dwarf gambler in NCR, and both
shopkeepers in San Fran.  This is how you purchase the power armours and good
stuff and still have money left over.  Pretty spiffy eh?

Bounty Hunters are the hardest battles you will face.  When you meet them
early, they usually have: 2 or 3 power fists and combat armour, 1 laser pistol
with combat armour, 1 laser rifle and combat armour, and 1 sniper rifle with
metal armour.  They are hard, but if you psycho up or are well equipped you
will live.  Later on, when you get to level 19, they are WAY harder.  They all
have power armour and gauss pistols and gauss rifles and avenger miniguns and
stuff.  You'll probably have to run away.  They are really hard.  But I pretty
much didn't have to go on the map much after level 19 so it was ok.  You do get
-10 karma for each bounty hunter though, and their weapons, which are really
good.

WALKTHROUGH
VERY IMPORTANT:  When I talk about going north, it to the top left corner of
your screen.  So south is the bottom right corner.  Just thought I'd say that
because other people might think of north as top right.  North might also be
directly up on your screen.  Sometimes that's how I did it.  Oh well.  For the
first half I usually talk about north as straight up the screen, and after
Vault 13 I think that north is to the top left corner.

ARROYO

You start outside the temple.  You can pretty much run through the temple if
you want, but it isn't recommended.  If you kill all of the ants and scorpions,
and disarm all of the traps in the trap room, you can level up (put all the
points into speech for this level).  The temple is pretty basic to get through.
 Just remember to pick up every item you find as well.

COMBAT TIP:  Take one punch or kick at the enemy, and then use the rest of your
action points to run away.  These enemies hardly have any action points, and
therefore they use them all up getting to you.  If you do this correctly you
shouldn't ever get hit in the temple.

To open the first door of the temple, use your lock pick skill on it.  This
opens the door to a wide corridor.  As soon as you move a few steps you will
see raised plates.  Walk up to them and keep trying to disarm them, until you
eventually do.  There's lots of experience to be got from that.  If you
accidentally set off one of the traps, go and pick up the sharpened pole that
the trap shot.  In this temple area, get some C-4 from the big pot.  Go next to
the door that you can't open, and set the C-4 for 10 seconds and then drop it
and run about 5 hexes away.  The door opens when it goes off.  There is a trap
under the door, but I can't find a way to disarm it.

There are a couple of enemies in this next area, so just kill them.  When you
get to the door, go through it, and you encounter the tribal man.  You have
three choices:  Fight him, talk him out of it, or say you need time to prepare,
and go and steal the key.  You could probably just pick the lock to the temple
door though.  Go through the door and you get the vault suit and the pip boy.

Go and talk to the elder, and get the money and the flasks.  Go to the guy in
front of the giant head, and he'll train you in unarmed.  Go to a hut near
there, and the man with the spear will train you in melee weapons.  Go over to
Nagor, the guy who has lost his dog.  Steal his spear, and then talk to him,
and let him run off into the wilderness by himself.  Follow him, and you see
that he is dead.  He has another spear on his body!  You can take that!  You
got two spears and someone dead, you must be a very proud evil person.  Go back
to the village.  Now you can steal items from the people in your village if you
want, and then leave the screen to the south.  Because you're evil you don't
need to waste time and help people.  Look at the man at the bridge, and then
talk to him about his sharpened spear.  He'll tell you to go and get some flint
off your aunt.  Her house is back in the screen before this one, to the south
west.  If you can talk her out of it, do that, but if not, steal it from her.

KLAMATH

NOTE:  In Vault city there is a quest to find 10 booze and 10 beer, so collect
it all in this town.  Whisky Bob has it, there's some in his still, and you can
trade for it and steal it too.

NOTE:  I'm not going to say to steal stuff or loot stuff anymore, unless there
is really good stuff to be found.  So remember to search everywhere and steal
everything.

Talk to the man south of the message board, and call him a drunk.  Now
talk to Torr, the guy who looks like a tribal, and agree to help him.
Kill the first scorpion that's near you, and then end combat.  Head west
a bit, and talk to the Duntons, and agree to help them.  Go and talk to
Torr, and say the bugmen are coming, and he will run off.  You lose 10
karma.  Go back and talk to the Duntons, and receive your cut of $50, 5
pieces of dry meat and -60 karma.  Head south, and then search the hut
to get the scorpion limbs (useless) and four more pieces of dry meat,
then leave the screen and you will arrive back in town.

Just a bit north is Vic's house.  Raid everything from his house,
especially the radio. The Duntons' house is next, but you can't talk to them
anymore.  Now go over to the Buckner Tavern, and make sure you have $350.  Pay
the Buckner girl for Sulik, and get his leather armor for yourself to wear,
after getting him to come with you.  Talk to Whisky Bob and get the quest to
refuel his still.  You can get him to raise the price to $65, but it doesn't
matter.  Now talk to Ardin Buckner, and get the quest to find Smiley the
Trapper.  Now leave to the Golden Gecko tavern.  Talk to the pub owner, and
he'll ask you where Whisky Bob's still is.  Tell him where the still is, and
you get -15 karma and $50, and a beer.  Now talk to a man in the SW corner of
the building, and ask him to teach you magic, and then after a bit he'll teach
you some unarmed.  If it is night time, you can arm wrestle one of the Duntons.
 Now go south to the next screen, which is Trapper Town.

In Trapper Town, go and find Slim Picket, who is in a building to the west. 
Talk to him and you find out that he has the key to get through the locked
door.  You can either talk him out of it, steal the key, pick the lock instead
of using the key, give him "what he wants", or buy it off him.  Don't buy it. 
If you give him "what he wants", you'll be closer to getting the gigolo and
sexpert titles, so you can do that, or if you steal it you get the experience. 
Go in the gun shop, and make sure you get the two pairs of boots from the
lockers.  Now go through the other buildings and kill all the rats and take the
ladder down.

Your aim here is to go and get the fuel cell regulator from the car.  The first
level is easy, just kill all the rats, and take a ladder down.  This next level
has harder and bigger rats, and also the rat god.  Avoid the Rat God as you get
50 karma if you kill it.  Don't fight it, and go up another ladder to get to
another level, which has even bigger rats in it.  In this level, when you
arrive at the locked door, you can search the shelf to get the dynamite, and
then drop the dynamite next to the door to blow it open, or you can pick the
lock.  Try picking the lock first as you get experience and can keep the
dynamite then.  Go up there and go down to the car, try and use it and you get
the fuel cell regulator.  Now go back the way you came, and now it's time to
leave Klamath in the direction of the Toxic Caves.

TOXIC CAVES
All you have to do is go through the toxic caves, killing the geckos if you
want, and find Smiley at the end.  Trade one of the pairs of boots to Sulik, so
you can both walk on the spilt goo.  It's recommended you kill the Geckos for
the experience, but you could wait until after you get gecko skinning so you
can skin the goldens.  When you get to Smiley, say that you are leaving and you
get -2 karma.  Then just talk to him again and get him to come with you.  You
can repair the generator now, but you may as well let Vic do it later.  Now
leave the caves back to Klamath.  You get 75 karma points for helping Smiley. 
Oh well, that took me back to 0 karma.

KLAMATH

Ok, now when you are back in Klamath, go and ask Mrs Buckner for some money and
she gives you some.  Now talk to Smiley and learn to skin geckos.  Now keep
talking to him and ask him to teach you about geckos.  Even when he says you
already know enough about them, he teaches you anyway, and your outdoorsman
skill goes up by 1-6 points.  Keep doing this as much as you want, but get at
least 100 points in it.  Now go over to the bathhouse, and talk to Jenny, and
ask her about Vic and the Den.  Now go off the screen to the south, and kill
golden geckos for their skin.  Now you can head off to the den, or go and skin
some golden geckos at the toxic caves.  If you go to the caves, go to the den
after that.

Character Update:
Karma: 0
Weapon: 10mm Pistol
Armour: Leather Armour
Sulik's Weapon:  Sharpened spear
Sulik's Armour:  Leather Jacket

TIP:  If you run into trappers on the way, don't kill them, as they give you
karma.  Instead, buy their golden gecko skins for money, and then steal your
money back.

THE DEN
Firstly, go into Becky's casino and ask for whisky, and about the Dyers, and
then buy some whisky.  Now go into Flick's house, and trade your useless stuff,
and gecko skins in for some 10mm JHP and some shells.  Be sure to remove all of
Sulik's items, as he will be leaving the group soon.  Now go into Lara's gang's
house, and get a quest from her to search the church.  Now go onto the other
side of The Den.

Go to 'the hole', and talk to one of the patrons.  You can let him spend some
time with you for $200.  Now talk to Frankie, and ask for whisky, and then ask
why his whisky is so expensive, and then tell him he should find out why, and
then agree to the quest.  Next stop is the slavers' guild.  Be absolutely sure
that Sulik doesn't have any good items.  Say whatever to the man in the front,
and then go and talk to Metzger.  Sell Sulik into slavery, for $1575 and -15
karma.  Next join the slavers, and you get the 'slaver' karmic trait.  Say that
don't want to do your slave run now.  Now talk to him about Vic, and ask if you
can see him.  Go and talk to the slaver guarding Vic's door, and he'll let you
in.  Talk to Vic, and give him the radio you found, and then go back and talk
to Metzger.  Ask him about Vic, and when he wants you to pay him, ask if you
can 'work something out', and then agree.  Now go and talk to him again, and
buy Vic for $500.  Go and get Vic out.  You get 5 karma.  Oh well.  Go back and
steal Metzger's stuff, including a shotgun, which you should equip.  Now go on
a slave run, and kill the bad villagers when they attack you, as you get -10
karma each one, and then -100 when you finish the first run, and all other runs
you get -15.  And make sure that after all the hostile slaves are killed, you
steal the slaver's weapons, which are good for this point in the game.  Head
back to The Den after each run, get your money and then do another, until you
can't anymore.  Now go and talk to Tyler, and lie to get into the church.  Then
use the crates, to find out whats in them.  Now leave to the other side.

Once on the other side, go into Becky's Bar.  There is a door in the top left
corner of the room, which you have to pick.  Do it when the man next to the
door moves to talk to the girl at the craps table.  To get him to go and talk
if he isn't already doing so, just wait 10 minutes.  Pick the lock and go down
the stairs, and you find Becky has a still.  Leave, and go and talk to Lara
again, and agree to do her quest of talking to Metzger.  Now leave to the other
side.

Go into Frankies, and talk to him, to get the quest to break Becky's still.  Go
into his room and get the crowbar from the book case.  Go to Metzger and ask
permission for Lara's gang to fight Tyler's gang.  Now go to Mom's.  Talk to
Stacy, buy her a drink, and listen to her talk about her cat for 200
experience. The following might not work if you only have 7 charisma, but if
you are playing with a higher charisma character it might.  Go to Karl, and
give him $1000, and don't ask about the GECK.  Talk to him again later, and
he'll ask you to spend some time with him, for $1000.  Agree and you get your
money back and are closer to the sexpert and gigolo karmic traits. Leave this
screen.

Go into Becky's casino, and then go downstairs and destroy the still, by using
the crowbar on it.  Now go and talk to Lara again, and get the next quest, to
find the weakness in Tyler's gang.  Go back to the other side.

Go to Frankie, and tell him you've broken the still, and you get -50 karma,
$500 and 700 experience.  Don't tell him to join Becky, as that's 70 karma, and
900 experience.  Now go and talk to Tyler, to learn that the gang is having a
party tonight.  Go to the other screen.

Go and talk to Lara, and tell her you'll help her.  You will end up near the
church, so run up and fight the guard outside.  Don't actually kill him, let
the gang members do it, so you don't get the karma for it.  End the battle once
the guard outside has been killed, and collect your money.  Don't go in the
church and fight, as then you'll get karma from killing the gangsters.  If you
have a shovel, you may as well dig all the graves, to get the grave digger
karmic trait, and lots of negative karma (-5 for each grave dug).  There is
some buffout in one of the graves, so make sure you take it and keep it.  If
you have too much to carry, go and put it in the car trunk on the other side of
town.  Now is probably a good time to leave The Den, for Vault City, but you
will find an unknown town on the way.  Stop there.

Character Update:

MODOC

You start near the general store.  Don't go there yet.  Go left, and you see an
injured brahmin.  Use doctor skill on it, and heal it for 5 karma, and 200
experience.  Now go to the house south of where the brahmin was, and get the
brahmin to follow you into the house.  Talk to Grisham, and ask him to make
some jerky for you, with your brahmin.  Agree, and you get -5 karma.  Go to the
well, and 'use' it to move all the planks off the top of it, and then use a
rope on it, and go down.  Pick up all the coin bags, and you get -1 karma for
each one, so that makes a -12 karma total.  Go up the end of the north west
path, and pick up the BB gun at the end.  Now climb back up. Go to the general
store, and ask if he has a GECK, and ask what he wants for it.  When you can,
agree and ask him to cut off his pinky finger, and make sure he does, to get
-10 karma.  Now leave the screen to go north.

Make sure you have 2 sets of dynamite.  Go to the north west corner of the
screen, where the cage is, and go in.  The dogs will attack after a bit, or you
can give them jerky instead.  Use dynamite next to the pile of rocks, and then
move out of the way.  The rocks get blown away, so ready an SMG for a fight. 
Go in the barn, and fight the death claw, which has 200hp.  Use burst mode on
it from up close, and you should do about 60 damage each shot.  You get 800
experience for killing it.  Now go into Rose's Bed and Breakfast, and talk to
Cornelius who is in the north most room, and after talking to him for a bit,
say he needs serious help, and agree to help him.  Leave the building, and tell
Vic to wait.  Go to the outhouse, and use the cupboards there to open it, and
then use the middle of it to climb down.  Use the dynamite near the cave in,
and then climb back up.  You will probably get hit for 30 damage.  Get Vic and
climb down.  Go and fight the molerat and get the pocket watch.  Go back to
Cornelius, and tell him Farrel stole it for 500 experience and -5 karma.  Now
you can leave Modoc to go to the ghost farm.

GHOST FARM

At the ghost farm, look at the bodies to find out that they are not real.  Go
into the house, and step on the rug to fall into the hideout.  Go with the
guards when they ask, and talk to Vegeir, and agree to help them.  Go around
and steal stuff off the Slags, there is a repair book and a guns and bullets on
people, but there are usually .223 FMJ, .44 Magnum JHP and 10mm JHP ammo on
people.  Leave through the door behind Vegeir, and go back to Modoc.

MODOC

Go and talk to Jo at the general store.  Go through the conversation, and make
Modoc attack the slags, and say you'll lead them.  You'll automatically go to
the Ghost Farm.

GHOST FARM

You start off in battle mode, with lots of townspeople and slags around.  Try
and kill as many slags as you can by yourself, as you get -10 karma each slag
killed.  Once the battle has finished, loot the bodies, and steal ammo off the
townspeople allies.  Now go down the back trapdoor, which was the way you came
out from the underground last time.

All you have to do is kill Vegeir.  He has 50 hit points, and an SMG with AP
ammo, so he can't do much damage.  Loot everything else that you didn't get the
first time.  Now go back to Modoc.

MODOC

There isn't much to do, but you can see what the traders and villagers say.  Go
to Rose's Bed and Breakfast, and talk to her, and she lets you search through
the lost and found box.  There isn't much there.  Now it's time to go to Vault
City, so head there.

Character Update:
Level: 7
Karma: -452
Weapon:  Shotgun, 10mm SMG, desert eagle
Armour: Leather Armour
Vic's Weapon:  Hunting Rifle
Vic's Armour:  Leather Jacket


VAULT CITY

When you get here go and steal the guards stuff.  Head up the main street, and
outside a shed near the brahmin pen Vic says that Ed lives there.  Go in and
talk to Ed and get the locations of lots of other towns, and 500 experience. 
You can trade your stuff at the weapon shop just above the pen.  Go and find
the little boy, and he asks you to find his doll.  It is on the outside of the
bar, next to a wall.  Get it, talk to him, and rip it's arms off for 100
experience and -3 karma.  Go and talk to Cassidy if you want, but he won't join
you because you are a slaver, so use some jet on him.  He dies of a heart
attack, but you don't get any negative karma, but you can take the stuff from
his body.  Use doctor skill successfully on the man lying inside a tent, and
you get 100 experience.  Go into the next screen.

Go into the customs office and talk to Skeev.  Ask him about how to get into
the city, and the other ways there are, but don't buy the fake papers, and just
end the conversation.  Talk again and say you'll turn him in, and tell him you
can be pretty persuasive, and eventually he will pay you $300.  Take off your
armor, and talk to Wallace, and he gives you the day pass.  Trade all your
beer, buffout, jet, rotgut, booze and other illegal drugs to Vic, and then go
inside the city.

Get back 10 beer and 10 booze off Vic, and go in the first building on the
right, and talk to her about what's on tap, and about real alcohol, and then
keep talking, and when she asks you for the alcohol, give it to her, and you
get 250 experience and $300.  Go to the Amenities A, and steal anything you
want from the table to the right of the lady in there.  In Amenities B, steal
from the table behind the man.  Go into the Maintenance building and listen to
Vic and Val talk.  Go to the servant allocation center, and talk to the man in
there, try to sell off Vic, and then raise the price, but don't sell him off,
for -6 karma.  Go to the information office, the building furthest to the west,
and go in, and talk to the guy about books and how you like them better.  He
gives you some books.  Go into the corrections center, and get the quest to
scout the area around Gecko.  Leave the screen to the north.

Go to the citizen office, and steal the First Citizen's mentats.  Talk to her
and ask how to become a citizen, and agree to take the quest to stop the ghouls
reactor leaking.  Get the buffout and some jet off Vic, and then save, and take
the mentats, jet and buffout, and make sure you aren't addicted to them.  Go
and talk to Proconsul Gregory, and take the citizenship test.  You should pass
if you have 9 perception, 9 intelligence and 9 luck, which you will have after
the drugs.  You get 1000 experience for passing.  Go back a screen, and go to
the vault.

Go in through the vault, and find Dr Troy, who is the man in the white lab
coat.  Go and talk to him, and then when you're about to leave, he will ask you
to get jet.  Ask him why he wants the jet, and ask why you shouldn't turn him
in now, and make him pay you.  I only had 42% barter skill, so I could only get
$500 on the first of every month. Try and get as much as possible.  You get -3
karma.  Now go down to the second level of the vault, because your doctor skill
probably isn't high enough yet to use the computer properly on the first floor.

There are lots of useful and not so useful items.  Starting from the bottom
right room going clockwise:

Room 1:  booze, cat's paw, TV dinner, junk, $3.
Room 2:  $150, stimpack, poison antidote, Big Book of Science.
Room 3 (locked):  Voice Recognition Module, Motion Sensor, Water chips.
Room 4 (stuck):  2 explosive rockets, 2 AP rockets, 10 Flame thrower fuel, 2
frag grenades, water chips.
Room 5 (locked):  5 television dinners, 5 boxes of noodles
Room 6 (stuck):  Strength Module, metal mk2, lots of ammo
Room 7 (locked):  Useless Stuff
Room 8 (locked):  Wrench, tool, other stuff.

Go and repair the rattling air vent for 50 micro fusion cells and 100
experience.  Go down to level 3.

Go to the central computer, which is the one near the weird guy, and it talks. 
Use it and you can learn the location of Vault 15.  You can pick the locks to
the two doors on this level and get some stuff.  Now leave the Vault, and go to
the main amenities office.  You can buy some good stuff now if you want, like
Mk2 metal armour and a combat shotgun.  Now leave Vault City for Gecko, in the
north east.

GECKO

When you get to Gecko, just steal stuff, and make sure you get the coolant
report and part requisition form from the shelf near Harold.  Go to the next
screen, to the north west.

Go into the survival gear building to the left, and then take the yellow key
card out of the locker there.  You can trade stuff with him too.  Go to the
room with lockers in next to Skeeter's room, and make sure you take the lock
picks from the locker.  Go next door, and talk to Skeeter.  You can steal the
car part from him without the patch, but if you have the patch, you'll have to
kill him later and take it.  Go to one of the rooms that has a manhole in it,
near the north of the screen.  Down there you can talk to the ghouls, and steal
some good stuff, and talk to the big molerat.  Leave here, and leave the above
screen, and enter the reactor.

GECKO REACTOR

Be sure to steal everything you can in here, because this place will soon be
closed...permanently.  There's lots of AP ammo for the assault rifle here, and
a blue key card in a bookshelf in a bedroom, which you can use at Navarro.  The
guy in charge of storage can give you a 3-step plasma transformer, if you give
him the part requisition farm you good from Harold's desk.  It isn't useful
though, as this is an evil walk through.  Go through the reactor, and when you
get past the red key card door (you can steal the red key card or find it in a
room), you can either talk to Hank, and give him the coolant report, and he
will shut down the reactor, for -20 karma and 550 experience, or use the
computer.  First save, then use the computer, and choose action, try to access
the network, and access the enclave, but you have to guess a password first. 
You should be able to guess it in a couple of tries, if you can't, just reload.
 You can talk to the guy for a while.  When you finish, use the computer again,
and learn to use the robot, and then put in commands in this order:

Amplify Plutonium-Gamma Shield
Deharmonize Neptunium Impeller
Calibrate Uranium-Rod Driver
Set Voltage on Saturn-Class Capacitor
Test Jupiter Wave Compiler
Turn Main Coolant Valve-Off

This should send the robot to start a meltdown, and you get 550 experience and
no karma.  So my advice is to go on the computer and talk to the enclave, and
then convince the Hank to do it, even though it takes ages.  Now you have to
decide whether you are going to run for it, or kill everyone for negative karma
and items and experience.  Choose what you want.  When you run out of the
reactor, you get 2500 experience, and -30 karma as well.  Unfortunately, I got
the berserker title, but it was because I think I killed a ghoul without any
weapons that was running away.  If you talk to any of the ghouls, they'll fight
you, and if you walk past the entrance of the bar, you will have to fight.  But
if you go over to Skeeter, he doesn't fight you, and neither do any of the
other ghouls in that screen.  Save, and then turn sneak on, go behind him and
shoot him dead, and hope no one comes to look for you.  Take the car part from
him (if you don't have the patch you can just steal it).  Leave Gecko for Vault
City.

VAULT CITY

Go to Lynette, and tell her you destroyed the reactor.  She will go psycho at
you, and when she asks you to leave, do it immediately, or you will be kicked
out of Vault City for good.  Go and trade in all your stuff you found at Gecko
for useful stuff, and if it is the first, go and get your money from the
doctor.  Go to the two amenities shops, and steal new items, as they should
have restocked by now.  Go to the corrections center, and give him the map of
Gecko (for $300 and 350 experience), and get the quest to scout a route to NCR.
 Just outside the vault, is a man dressed in green, talk to him, and he says he
won't talk to you, but say something about how you don't like slavery in Vault
City, and that Vault City is bad, and stuff like that, for the whole
conversation, and when he asks you to take his briefcase, offer to do it for
free, and not for money.  Once you have the briefcase, you can leave.  Go back
to the Den.  If you want you can stop by at Modoc, and pick up your 100 pieces
of dry meat from a crate in a room of the slaughterhouse.  If you encounter
bounty hunters, you can fight them and win good weapons, but they're hard.  I
encountered them with a herd of deathclaws in a cave, so I got heaps of
experience.

Character Update:

THE DEN
Go and talk to Smitty and pay him to install the car parts.  Put all of the
stuff that you are not going to use straight away in the car trunk, so you can
carry more.  Now leave and go south east to Redding.

REDDING

Redding is the first town you arrive at that has lots of Super Stimpacks. 
Steal them all, they're really good.  There isn't really much to do in Redding
for evil people, but if your level 10 or better you can become Sheriff.  The
first mission is to go and kick Widow Rooney out.  Her house is a bit south of
the sherrif's office.  Go in, talk to her, and kick her out, and get -25 karma
and 1000 experience and $100.  You can now talk to Ascorti as much as you want,
and each time you can get him to give you a beer, so you can get unlimited
beer.  Go and get the next mission, which is to split up the fight in the bar. 
Go to the bar, talk to one of them, and say you'll kill the first person to
throw a punch, and then it won't be your blood.  Take both of them to jail for
$300, 1500 experience and 0 karma.  Don't take the next mission, as it involves
positive karma.  Go to the screen to the north, and go to the morningstar mine,
and get a shovel out of the locker.  Go and dig up all the graves, which give
you a grand total of -35 karma.  Go down the grave that was already open.  You
should probably take the 3 dynamites from the lockers and cupboards and stuff
in both of the mine buildings first, as they are useful in getting heaps of
money soon.

This is the great wannamingo mine.  This screen has lots of rats, and two
wannamingos.  You should be able to kill the wannamingos without too much
trouble.  If you aim for the eyes and blind them, they will run away, so run
them into the corner of the cave and then shoot them.  Then leave this screen
to the south.

There are a couple more wannimingos here, so kill them, and on this screen
there are some ladders which take you to places in Redding when you climb them.
 There is a room on this screen which is under the saloon, and there is a
fridge there with some fruit.  There is another ladder that leads up to the
back room in the casino.  Go up there.

Save now.  Put your weapon away, and go to the back door of the room with the
money changer, and pick the lock.  The guard gets a bit angry at you, but set
the dynamite, one for 0:30, another for 1:00 and the other for 1:30 and plant
them on the guard.  Run back down the ladder, and on the little monitor in the
bottom left corner it should have said the guard was hit twice with the
dynamite.  Go back up the ladder, and hopefully the man is dead.  If he isn't,
reload and try with different times on the dynamite.  Go in the backroom, loot
the fridge and the lockers, for heaps of money and pay scripts.  For me, when I
leave the screen after using dynamite the game gets an error and stuffs up. 
Don't worry about the dynamite thing if that happens to you also.  Now go back
down the ladder and head north to the screen where you started, and then leave
that screen to the west.

This screen has four wannamingos for you to kill.  Do that, and then head down
a ladder.  I like the one in the north east of that screen, but the north west
one stuffed my game up, so I don't go down that one.  This screen has heaps of
wannamingos, and their mother too.  There is a big machine in the middle of the
screen, and if you use it, there is an excavator chip in there for you to take.
 In a bit of the caves to the far right of this screen there is another
excavator chip on the ground for you to pick up.  I don't know if this is an
error, or bug or what.  The wannamingos around here are hard, and attack in
groups.  This is a good place where the better criticals comes in handy.  I
killed 3 wannamingos with instant kill critical hits, and I blinded or damaged
the air intake of all the others.  There is about 8-9 wannamingos on this
screen I think.  Once you clear out this screen, you're all done, and you get
3500 experience and 0 karma.  You don't have to kill the eggs to get the
experience, so I just left them.  My game might have had an error actually, as
it said I cleared out the mine when there was still one wannamingo left.  Oh
well.  Head back to the entrance of Redding.

Remove your weapon and talk to the Mayor, get a beer and then buy the deed to
the mine for $1000, end the conversation, talk to him again and then sell him
the mine back for $2500, 1000 experience and 0 karma.  If you want, go to the
north side, and sell the chip to Dan at the Morningstar Mine, because he goes
for New Reno, for 2500 experience, $1000 and 0 karma.  If you do, you get the
ending described in here, but if you don't, I think you should get the better
ending for evil people, where Redding turns into a "desicated husk" or
whatever.  Time to leave Redding now, for New Reno.

NEW RENO
You start in Virgin Street of New Reno.  Talk to Jules, and ask about the
Salvatores and their laser pistols, and then you can talk about the Mordinos
and learn where Myron is, and also Golgotha, but you'll be going there soon
anyway.  Go to the Cat's Paw, when you have a Cat's Paw magazine, and ask Miss
Kitty about it, and you get the quest to find 10 Cat's Paws.  When you come
back she gives you 500, but barter for 100 and she gives you 750.  You also get
1000 experience.  Go into the desperado casino, and talk to Little Jesus and
ask to sell slaves, but don't sell any.  Go upstairs and talk to Senor Mordino,
and he will say that you're a woman when he asks you to do the quests, but then
just say that you can do it anyway.  Accept the quest and you will end up at
the stables.  Go in the building on the right, and talk to Ramirez and give him
the box for 500 experience.  Before that you can open the box, and steal the 5
lots of jet, but then you won't be able to give the box to Ramirez without
fighting him, and if you don't give it to him you don't get the 500 experience.
 You can go into the back room and go and see Myron, but don't do it yet. 
Leave the stables and go back to New Reno.

At New Reno if you go to where your car was, you'll see that it's disappeared. 
Go and talk to Jules and yell at him and swear at him, and he'll get scared and
tell you where it is, so you go there.  Or you can just walk up to where your
car is, and then it gives you the opportunity to find the car for yourself.

At this place, go in the garage, and you see your car.  Go in and talk to the
guy in the back room.  Say that you want your car back, and if you have enough
charisma, you can "get down to bitness" with him for your car back, and 7
charisma is enough to do that.  You get 750 experience and 0 karma.  End the
conversation, and then start again, ask if he can upgrade the car, and give him
some more "sweet love", so you get the udgrades for free.  If you keep making
sweet love to T-Ray, he gets 5000 damage and blows up, but you will get the
sexpert and gigolo karmic traits pretty quickly that way.  Steal all the stuff
from inside his room.  Drive your car and then enter New Reno again.

Go in the Desperado, and talk to Big Jesus.  You get $100 for delivering the
jet.  Agree to do the next quest, but then use some of your jet on Senor
Mordino.  He dies, you get 1000 experience and 0 karma, and you can take his
combat shotgun and combat leather jacket, which will be good for Myron.  Leave
and go to the stables.

At the stables, go in the backroom, and you can just walk past the bald woman,
but if you're a man you should steal the scientific pass off her.  Go
downstairs and south, and talk to the guards at the door.  You can go inside if
you are a lady by flirting, and if you are a man say you are a scientist, and
have the pass.  Go inside, and get Myron to join you.  Search around his room
for a Cat's Paw, lots of empty hypos and some ammo for his needler.  Give him
some good armour, and his ammo, take his stimpacks and drugs from him for
yourself.  Talk to Myron to learn about jet.  If you have high enough science
skill, you can get him to make super stimpacks, with all your nuka cola and
fruit you've been collecting.  If your science is high enough you can also
convince him there is a cure for jet, for 1000 experience.  But anyway, you get
750 experience for Myron joining you.  Go back to Reno.

Go to the next street, and you can't talk to the porno man because you're a
slaver.  If you can talk to the man, it would have been better not to kill Big
Jesus and get Myron, because of his quests.  Oh well.  Go into the Shark Club,
and make sure you have the briefcase from Moore in NCR.  Go upstairs, and then
on the second level go to the other set of stairs, and talk to the guards and
say you have the briefcase.  Instead of going up the stairs, go and talk to Mrs
Bishop, in the left corner.  When you are about to leave, she will ask you if
you want drinks, so go and have some.  Afterwards, talk to her, about
everything, and ask her if she's from vault city if you can, and she tells you
the safe combination and you can get the speech enhancement module from it,
which gives you +10 to speech.  I couldn't ask about Vault City at the moment. 
Don't loot the northernmost room yet, but loot the room above Mrs Bishop's. 
Now go in the room with people in it, and Mr Bishop will talk to you.  Be nice
to him, and tell the truth, and agree to take his mission, for -5 karma.  You
get 500 experience and money for completing the earlier mission.  Now leave the
Shark Club, and go to Salvatore's Bar.

Go upstairs, and talk to Mason, and keep telling him you want to see Mr
Salvatore, and you get let in after a while.  Talk to Mr Salvatore and say you
want to work for him, to get the quest to kill Lloyd.  Go and ask Mason about
the details, and then leave the Salvatores, and leave this screen to the west.

In this screen, go to Renesco's, and buy some drugs if you want, as you'll need
some strength over in Broken Hills soon.  But you'll be coming here soon
anyway, so you don't need to, as you'll get his whole stock for free.  Go to
the church, and if Father Tully is in the back, loot the donation box for -3
karma.  There is also 2 Xander roots and 1 Broc Flower in his back yard.  Go to
the weapon shop, and ask him if the Salvatores buy their lightbringers from
here, and then accept the quest to get one.  You can leave, and then go around
to the west side of the building, and pick the lock at the back, and go through
the back to where the dogs are, and then go down the stairs behind the shelves.
 The man down there can upgrade every upgradable weapon for free, and there is
stuff on the desks to take.  There is a fridge in the top left corner of the
room, with electronic lockpicks in it.  Be sure you take those, and keep them
until you go back to the Toxic Caves.  Back in the room upstairs, there is a
locker containing the 9mm Mauser, which is like the handgun on Resident Evil 3
I think, at least it uses the same ammo, 9x19 parabellum.  Leave this screen
and go to the Desperado.

Go to the stairs, and go down.  In the southernmost room there is a poison tank
which you can use to kill Salvatore, but you don't need it.  Go behind all the
big tanks, and pick the lock of the door that Lloyd is in.  Make him take you
to Golgotha, and then make him dig up the graveyard, open the manhole, and then
drop the mine down there on his head for -5 karma.  Go down there and take the
money.  My game stuffs up when I go down there, so I have to pay with my own
money.  Dig up all the other graves.  Talk to Myron, ask him to wait here, but
let him stay when he tells you about Golgotha.  Ask him where the grave is on
Golgotha, and then when you're in the southern part of the map, he tells you
which one it is.  You were digging all of them, so it didn't really matter
anyway.  It's the one with "Ray Muzyka, Summer '98" on it.  You only get the
extra stuff if you have Myron with you though, and have asked him about it.  In
one of the southern graves, there are some mirrored shades, and when they are
in your active item slots they give you +1 charisma, so have them there
whenever you talk.  When you dig up the grave with the ghoul in it, kill it.
Once you've dug up all the graves, and killed the ghoul, you get a massive
total of -135 karma!  Go back to New Reno to Salvatore.

Talk to Mason and then go in and talk to Salvatore, and pay him 1000 chips, and
you get 500 back, and also 500 experience and -10 karma.  Get the next quest to
go and get money off Renesco.  Go there.

At Renesco's, say you are Mr Salvatore's person and you are here to collect the
tribute.  Keep saying stuff like that, and then say you want a 'discount', he
gives it to you and then you get to make your 'purchases'.  In other words, you
get heaps of drugs for free!  Make sure you get every drugs you can.  Then
leave to Salvatore's again.

Pay the 1000 chips, and you get 750 experience and 250 chips.  Get the next
quest, and ask for a laser pistol which you get, and also you get taught some
energy weapon skills if you ask (5%).  Then go on the mission.

Leave this area when the guy tells you to, and then go back to New Reno.  DON'T
go back to Salvatore.  Go to Commercial Row, and give Eldridge that laser
pistol he wanted, for some money and 500 experience.  It's time to leave
Reno...for now.  Head for Broken Hills in the east.

BROKEN HILLS

Firstly, you can help that ghoul under the car if you want, as there's no karma
involved.  You can talk to Steve if you put your weapons away, but you don't
have to.  Go into the caravan office, and shovel stuff as much as you can, and
you end up getting 500 experience, and receive the "expert excrement expeditor"
or something, which gives you +5% to speech, antipathy in Broken Hills and
$500.

Go to the bar, and buy lots of nuka cola if you want.  Use 2 buffout, make sure
you aren't addicted and then wrestle Francis the super mutant.  You will
hopefully lose, so you can get the ball gag.  Rest a bit so you get your stats
back.

Just south of the sheriff, is the doctors.  Go in, and joke to him about young
and old people to get some free healing next time.  If you listen to his story,
he'll also give you some free healing next time.  Go south and a bit east into
that house.

Talk to the man there, ask about Broken Hills, and say you hate mutants, and
then agree to their quest of rescuing the guys from jail.  Go to the jail, and
when the mutant walks near the door, sneak and steal the key off him, and then
sneak over to the end cells, unlock the door and open it, and then talk to the
humans.  You end up with -10 karma and 1500 experience, and end up back at the
mutant haters house.  If you have bad sneak skill, you can just kill the people
inside the jail, but I like to do it properly, so I didn't.  Talk to the man,
and then agree to do the next quest, to get the explosive charge.  Go to the
East Side of Broken Hills.

Over on the east side, head up along the southern house row, and go in the
building where the scientist and radscorpion are.  Go and steal the
radscorpions glasses and the tool.  Take the agility and perception tests, for
500 experience each.  The professor has 5 mentats in his inventory, so steal
them all.

Go to the garden near the shed, and talk to the talking plant.  Move it in
front of the old ghouls home for 2 karma, but 1000 experience.  Go back and
test intelligence with the professor for 500 experience, and then beat up on
the scorpion for -10 karma and 60 experience.  That 2 karma earlier was worth
it now!

Go to the front of the mine.  Make Vic and Myron wait, and then go into the
mine.  You are supposed to have protective gear, but you won't get power armour
for a while anyway so you may as well do it now.  Go in the mine and run north,
and when you take heaps of damage, use some stims.  When you get to the mining
machine, use the explosive device on it, for 1500 experience and -50 karma. 
Now all the mutants are gone, so Broken Hills is now stuffed.  Go back to the
mutant haters house, and talk to them to be allowed to go in the basement of
the general store.  Go over to the general store, and talk to the lady and ask
to use her basement or whatever.  There is some good stuff down there... if you
don't have any good weapons at the moment.  Leave Broken Hills for NCR.

NCR

When you get to NCR, pay the bum $5 to watch your car.  Go into the slavers
house, in the north, and get the mission to get the raiders map for the main
slaver.  You can steal the Bozar, one of the best big guns, from the guards
outside the weapon shop in combat armour, and you can buy stuff there too. 
Wait until night time, and then go in the empty room in the bar near the
entrance.  After a bit a man will come in, maybe with some guards, but talk to
him anyway.  Say your bad, and agree to do his favour.  Now rest until morning,
and get everyone to holster their weapons, and go inside NCR.  Firstly, walk
down the main street, until you meet the sheriff, who's south of the police
statement.  Ask for work, and then ask about working for Westin, and agree to
help.

Next, go to this weapon shop, and buy stuff if you want to.  If your gambling
skill is high enough, you can ask about other ways to work, and then the dwarf
gives you the password to the gambling room.

Now go south a bit, and go in the scientist's place.  Go to the desk in the
hall and take the paper.  If you have science above 80, go and talk to the
scientist, and say you haven't studied what he does.  Agree to his quest, to
get the serum.

Go a bit more south to the Doctors.  You can ask him about stuff, but go and
steal everything from his bookcase, especially the poison.

Now head back up the street again, to the church.  Enter and close the door
behind you.  Save the game, and then get a powerful weapon, put sneak on, and
then blast her in the eyes.  She should die in one hit.  End combat as soon as
possible, and holster your weapon.  You get 2060 experience and -10 karma. 
Leave the church.

North is a Brotherhood of Steel building, but just ignore it.  Up that street
is a ranger house, so save.  I took some psycho too, for the extra damage
resistance, as you'll face a flamethrower, a minigun and a combat shotgun in
there.  Get yourself in a good position, and then talk to the ranger, and tell
her to try and shoot you in the head.  Now start the fight, and kill them all. 
Take the map in the chest in the room above.  You get 925 experience and -30
karma for killing all the rangers.

Go north, but save again first.  Now it's your choice here.  You can either be
an evil person, or a evil person that does good for a huge reward.

For the former, go north and the lady outside the shop asks you if you want to
help.  Say no, then go inside, but don't stand near the man.  He blows himself
up.  Talk to the lady, and say your bad at repairing stuff.  Wait in the corner
for 30 seconds, and she blows up, and her robot too.  You can get a psycho of
the policemans body, and some books off the girl.

For the latter, you'll have to talk to the man.  The sequence for talking him
out of it is 1-2-1-1-2-2-1-2.  If you talk him out of it, you get 6000
experience and 25 karma. It stuffed up for me, and gave me 6300 experience, and
then when I talked to the lady after it gave me 3150 experience and 20 karma
again, and the books she gives you.  I think that may have been an error, but
that's what happened to me.  I think that error stuffed up my NCR quests by not
giving me proper karma for some quests after that.  I chose this option,
because I wanted some experience.

Now head east to the laser barrier.  Talk to the man behind it, and then who
lives there, and then say you want to see him about work.  You get let in
there.  Go to the south building and give Saltbeef Bob some alcohol and he
tells you his Vault 13 story.  Go to the big house, talk to the guy outside,
say the Sheriff told you to come for work, and then go in the house.

Talk to Westin, ask about Vault 13, take the job, go outside and talk to Felix
and then take the job.  You wait for a while, and some talking deathclaws come.
 Follow where they go, and if your outdoorsman is high enough, a message comes
up and tells you how to track them.  Go there and you end up at Vault 13. 
Leave there, return to NCR and go to Westin's Ranch again.

Go into Westin's house, but don't talk to him, as you'll get 1000 experience
and 15 karma.  Instead, use the poison on him, and then loot his body.  Leave
here and go to the Bazaar.

Go to the slavers and give Vortis the map, for $500.  Wait until evening, then
go and get the next quest off Merk in the Saloon.  Just talk to him and say
you've done the quest, and he'll give you $1000 and 1000 experience, but no
karma.  Now it's time to leave.

NEW RENO

At New Reno, just head to the Shark Club, go with Mrs Bishop, and then talk to
Mr Bishop, and accept the quest to kill Carlson.  You get -5 karma for taking
the quest and 2000 experience and $500 for assassinating Westin.  Purchase
anything you might want from the shops, and then go back to NCR.

NCR

Enter in the Bazaar, holster your weapons, and then go to the south part of
NCR.  Go into the Hall of Congress, and tell the guy in there that you want to
see the president concerning the job.  Go and steal the presidential pass off
the man in the next room.

Leave the hall of congress, and talk to the man outside the laser barrier in
this screen.  Use the presidential pass on him, and then enter this area.  Go
south, and through the wooden gate, and stand near the window near the water
tank, and SAVE.  Get your sniper rifle or something, and put sneak on, enter
combat, and aim for the man's eyes.  Shoot him, and holster your weapon, and
end the round.  End combat the next round.  If you can't, you'll have to reload
and try again.  You get -10 karma and 75 experience for killing Carlson.  Leave
NCR, for the fabled Vault 13.

VAULT 13

Follow the cave, and open the vault door with the control panel thing.  Enter,
and you get 2000 experience.  Now get ready for a hard fight.  Drug up, reload
and change tactics for NPCs, or whatever you do.  Open the door and talk to the
deathclaw, and find some way to fight him.

Aiming for the eyes gives the best chance to get criticals, so do that.  If you
nearly die, you can run on the exit grid and heal, then go back.  You get 1200
experience and -10 karma for every deathclaw, except for Goris, he gives you
900 experience and -10 karma.  The deathclaws with 310 HP give you more
experience, and the babies give you less.  You still lose 10 karma each one
though.

On the second level, kill the deathclaw, and you can get the prisoner in the
top left corner to escape, but you don't get any experience and karma.  On the
third floor, loot the lockers, and make sure you take the GECK for 4000
experience (although you don't need to take it), and the Navcom parts in
another part of the ship.  After you've exterminated those deathclaws and taken
the stuff, it's time to leave. You'll get a dream about Arroyo. 
Congratulations on doing the best evil thing yet!  Now head west, until you get
to the military base.

MILITARY BASE

When you enter the military base, you see lots of tents.  Search them all to
get good items, and use the holodisk and then read it on the pipboy in status. 
Use the map that you find, so San Fran goes on your map.  After a while all
those wolfies attack, so kill them for 660 experience.

Go into the military base area, and a bit down from the cart is a metal pole,
so use it on the cart.  Go up a bit and there is a little hut there, so pick
the lock and take some dynamite from inside.  Go and use the dynamite with the
pole, and then use the cart.  The entrance opens and you get 5000 experience. 
Enter the base, and make sure you have the mutant serum from NCR.

In the base, search the bodies of the dead enclave people and read the
holodisks.  Kill all the rats, and on the left side of this level is a power
generator, so repair it for 1500 experience, and access to the lifts.  Now go
to the upper left of the screen where the mutant is, and then kill the rats so
they don't initiate combat first, and then end combat, go behind the mutant and
use the serum on it, for 1000 experience.  Use the elevator in the top left of
the level to go down to level 2.  Next to the elevator are those blue boxes
which have some rockets in.

Now, the bad thing is you get 5 karma for killing each mutant.  The good thing
is there is some power armour here.  First, go all the way to the right, and
then up into the room with no one in it.  There is a locker in the wall with
good stuff.  Now get ready for a big fight, and go back left a bit and then
south, where all those mutants are.  This fight is hard, so aim for the eyes
again, and shoot the ones with the big guns first.  Now go south a bit more,
and then right and loot the lockers.  In there is the power armour.  Put it on,
and now you have extra strength, and therefore you can carry more.  Loot
whatever you want from this room, and the room before with all the footlockers.
 Now go back in the elevator, and go down to level 3.

On level 3, just go south a bit and then raid the locker in the room to the
right, and then take the perception memory module.  Now it's time to leave the
military base, for San Fran.

SAN FRANCISCO

This town is good.  First go to the weapon shop, and steal his money, and
purchase any 2mm EC you can, and if you have enough money, purchase more power
armour, and then steal the money back, and give it to Vic or Myron.  Do the
same at the equipment shop.

Go up the street, and you see 2 people fighting in the ring, the Dragon and Lo
Pan.  Lo Pan is evil, and the dragon is good.  Go left down that street, and
enter the first building.  Lo Pan is in there, and ask him to train you.  Take
your power armour off first.  Train with him, then rest for 24 hours, and then
train etc., until you can't be trained any more.  Then put your power armour
back on.  I got up to 85% before he told me "you've already taken the test of
the dragon" and wouldn't train me anymore.

Go to the south west corner of this screen, to the Brotherhood of Steel
outpost, and talk to the guy there and get the quest to get the Vertibird
plans.

Go north on the screen, and at the top leave the screen to the east.  Go down
the stairs, and talk to the robed hubologist at the stairs, and say you're
interested in potentially joining their group.  Go through the hubologist base
and loot all their fruit, because they have lots of it.  Go to the room with
all the robed guys in it, and then talk to the celebrities, and then go back to
the entrance, and SAVE.  It's very important.  Now talk to AHS-7, and say sure,
and then take the scan, but say you don't want to join now, but maybe later. 
You get -50 karma for taking the scan.  If you are lucky, you would have got +1
luck and +1 intelligence, and if you were unlucky you would have got -1 luck. 
So reload if you get the latter.  Go to the far right of the base, and talk to
the scientist there.  Ask what he does and what new technology he has
developed, and then get your power armour upgraded.  Wait for a day, talk to
him to get your armour, and then steal the money back.  Leave this area.

Go north from the hubologist area, and then keep heading north until you get on
the ship.  This place is god for lots of weapons.  Lots of the punkers have
HK11, gauss rifles, 2mm EC and 4.7mm caseless, which you can steal.  I think
there's someone that has a XATM092 or whatever gun as well.  Go to the computer
room that is sort of north east, and go down the manhole to the bottom.

Kill all the monsters down there, for 9900 experience.  You can talk to the
girl that's in the top right corner, and then run to the stairs, and she'll
leave, and then go back to the computer room and talk to the guy for 15 karma
and 5000 experience.  You decide if you want that karma or not.

Go all the way to the right of the screen, and then go up the stairs.  Go up,
and then use the computer, and check the status, so you get the quests to get
the Navcom parts and the fuel.  Time to leave the ship now, for a
"Round-The-World" Trip.

ROUND THE WORLD

NCR

Enter the Bazaar, holster your weapons, and then enter, go to the scientist,
tell him about the quest, and get the cyberdog as a reward.  Now leave for New
Reno.

NEW RENO

Start on 2nd street, and go into the Shark Club.  Go up with Mrs Bishop, and
have a conversation about her husband, and then ask if she wants you to kill
him.  You need 80% traps and 80% repair, and then you can say you can rig his
safe.  Leave her after that, and go into Bishop's room (the one to the most
north), and "repair" the safe.  Now go and talk to Bishop, and become a made
man.  You get 2500 experience for whacking Carlson, and 1000 experience for
becoming a made man.  DO NOT talk to Bishop again, or he'll try and kill you. 
Go to the ground floor, and then wait until morning.  You will hear a muffled
explosion or something, and John Bishop gets hit for 328 damage or something
around that mark.  Leave this screen, come back, and then go and have drinks
with Mrs Bishop again.  You can ask about her family, and then get 1000
experience (and unfortunately 3 karma) when she agrees that she can leave Reno.
 Go up to John's room, and loot his body, and his safe.  Use the Raider Map. 
Go into the basement, and loot the lockers, especially the one with the plated
boxing gloves in.

I am still for some reason a made man of the Bishops.  If you aren't, go to the
Salvatores and become a made man with them.

Leave the Shark Club, and go south a bit, and enter the boxing building.  Talk
to the dwarf, and get him to let you box.  You can just say that he will get
heaps of money from sponsoring the only woman boxer.  Now fight all the
battles.  Just aim for the head.  Win the first three fights, for 500, 750 and
1000 experience respectively.  Then you might want to drug up with buffout to
increase your strength, and then fight the masticator, but save first.  Aim for
the head.  He might bite your ear off, and if he does, you'll have to reload,
and try again.  When you win, you should get the Prizefighter karmic trait, and
some damage resistance for normal.  I didn't get any of that though.  STAY
DRUGGED UP!!

Go south a bit to the Golden Globes Porn.  Since you're a made man of the
Bishops now, you can talk to him.  If you have 8 charisma, 8 endurance and 8
agility, you can ask if he has any jobs for you straight away.  You will get
the job, and then haggle the price up a bit.  You get 1500 experience and the
Porn Star karmic trait.  You can get Big Jesus money now, but he's dead so you
can keep it.  Go and upgrade weapons with Algernon, and buy stuff from the
shops, and then go to the Raiders.

RAIDERS

Go down the ladder, and you get 500 experience.  Search the crates, and take
whatever you want.  You are supposed to be able to become friends with the
raiders, by using the ball gag you got from Broken Hills on the tribal guy. 
You have to sneak though.  I tried it and nothing happened.  So just leave for
Vault City.

VAULT CITY

Go into the Vault.  Search the medical computer for some experience and
information about combat implants.  Go down to level 2, and now open all the
doors with your power strength and electronic lockpicks, and take the useful
stuff, and especially the strength memory module.  You can loot level 3 as
well, if you didn't before.  Go to the First Citizen's Office, apologise if she
is angry at you, and then tell her Thomas Moore is a spy for NCR.  Go to
Sargent Stark in the corrections centre, and give him your map to NCR.  You get
a motion sensor, $500 and 750 experience.  You can go out in the courtyard,
with 2 sets of combat armour, and then get the combat implants, for $8000 and
$5000, and 5% resistance to every attack.  Time to leave for Modoc.

MODOC

Now choose if you either want a husband or wife.  Go to Grisham's house, and
then either flirt with Miria, or Davin.  After that you get married.  Set their
weapon preference to unarmed, and then give them a power fist or mega power
fist, along with some armour.

For a little side trek, travel around north of Modoc, and try and run into a
merchant who sells weapons.  When he arrives on your screen, go and look at
what stuff he has in his inventory first.  Kill him and his guards if it is the
alien blaster, and if it isn't, talk to him and don't buy it.  Walk around and
do it again.  Myron likes the alien blaster.  It takes ages to do it sometimes
though.

Then head to the Toxic Caves.

TOXIC CAVES

Go to the end of the toxic caves, and repair the generator, and lockpick the
elevator and go down.  There is a robot that shoots triple rockets down there,
so kill it.  There's lots of ammo down there, so you may as well take it.  Now
head for Arroyo.

ARROYO

Listen to Hakunin say stuff.  Then head south to Navarro.  Watch out for the
enclave patrols, as they give you karma, and they're usually pretty hard too.

Here's my character after the around the world trip:

NAVARRO

Enclavers give you karma right?  So you want to kill as few as possible.  When
the man talks to you, ask if this is the enclave, and then go through the
conversation, and remember the password, for 1500 experience.  You have to
leave your allies here.  Because you can't leave Davin, you'll have to kill him
for -10 karma.  Now head north.

Talk to the first guard, and tell him the password.  Go up a bit, and then in
the first door in the first building on the right.  Talk to the drill sarge,
who assigns you to the vertibird shed.  Walk away, to the building just south
of your post.

Go in the kitchen, talk to the cook and have some food.  Talk about everything
you can, and then leave this room and take the elevator down.

Go to the room in the north west.  Talk to the man in power armour, and he
tells you to change your power armour for a new one, so do that in the room
with the lockers.  Make sure you get the charisma module as well as the
advanced power armour and the other stuff.

Go to the computer room, that's in the middle of this floor.  You can tease the
guard outside, but anyway go in, and talk to one of the scientists, and get him
to let you use the computer.  Look up some stuff on it.

Go across the hall to Doctor Schreber.  Ask him stuff, and then ask to help
kill the deathclaw.  Go to the deathclaw room, and then talk to the deathclaw,
and then kill it.  You get -30 karma and 500 experience for killing it, and
then another 1200 experience when you end battle.

Go to the room with the commander in it.  Ask the guard what place this is, and
then tell him you have to secure the passkey thingo.  You will be allowed into
the room, talk to the commander and loot the lockers, and make sure you take
the fob, which you get 3500 experience for acquiring.  Go back up the elevator.

Go to the building in the north east.  Sneak behind Quincy and take the
vertibird plans from the right locker.  If you went in a different way you
could have convinced him that Raul sent you for the plans, but you can only say
the sarge sent you, because you went in the front.  Now leave Navarro by going
down the lift, and then taking the passage in the north east of the base.  Get
your allies to follow you and then go back to San Fran.

SAN FRAN

Go and shop at all the merchant's places.  Then travel to the Brotherhood of
Steel outpost, and give the guy the vertibird plans.  Unfortunately, you get 30
karma, but you get 20,000 experience, and full access to their facility.  So go
in and down the elevator.

Go and loot the lockers in the south.  They have probably the best energy
weapon, the pulse rifle in there, as well as some power armour if you didn't
get it all for your group before.  Go to the left room, and you can use all
those modules that you found.  Say yes to medical assistance, and then choose
what stat you want to raise.  You can't get intelligence, because real evil
people can't get that module.  Once you've upgraded one stat, go outside and go
shopping, as the stores have restocked.  Upgrade all your stats.

Once Matt, the guy outside, has disappeared, use the computer and ask about
Matt, and you can see what happened to him.  Now is probably a good time to
save, and then go over to Lo Pan, challenge him, and then only test for skills
instead of the real thing.  If you beat all the guys (aim for the head until
they are K.O.ed, and then aim for the eyes, take some buffout and psycho is you
want) you get 8000 experience.

Now go and challenge The Dragon.  This guy is way harder, because he has that
perk that lets you get up from being knocked down.  So when you knock him out,
he gets back up in 2 rounds.  Buffout and/or psycho are recommended.  When you
beat him, go and talk to Lo Pan and you get 3000 experience and -60 karma. 
That's pretty good I reckon.  Now head off to the hubologists.  Make a save
game, and don't write over it next time you save.

Talk to AHS-7 down the stairs, and join the hubologists, and accept his quest. 
Go up the stairs again, and talk to the scientist.  Give him the vertibird
plans for -20 karma and 5000 experience, and he asks you to get fuel for the
spaceship.  Now go to the fighting ring in Chinatown, and then head east.

This is the Shi palace.  Go up a bit to the scientist room, and talk to the
scientist about the computer network.  Go to the south building with the
scientists in, and talk to the scientist with a scowl on his face.  When you
can, ask him if he can direct fuel to the tanker for you.  Give him the
hardened power armour that you got made before, and then tell him to reroute
the fuel to the tanker.  You get 5000 experience and 3 karma for getting him
the armour, and 5000 experience and 5 karma for directing the fuel to the
tanker.  Go back to the first scientist room, and use the computer.  Hack into
it, and then direct the fuel to the Hubologists, for 6000 experience and -25
karma.  I think it might be a bug that I was able to do that, but it's a good
bug.  If it doesn't let you do that, don't worry about directing the fuel to
the hubologists.  Head to the Tanker.

Go to the room where badger is, and then wait for everyone other than Badger
(and his girlfriend if you rescued her) leave.  Go in and close the door, and
stand next to the manhole.  Then put on sneak, enter combat, kill him in one
hit, and then go down the manhole in the same round.  That's pretty hard, so
you can either dynamite him, or super stimpack him to death.  You'll need 13 of
them though, so that's a waste.  Or you can just shoot him and then everyone
else will attack you.  Then you get their weapons, so why not.  I'd suggest the
first way though.  You get 450 experience and -10 karma for now.  Go back to
the Hubologists.

Talk to that rocket scientist, and he knows you completed the quest.  Go down
and talk to AHS-7, and get the next quest to "kill" the president.  You get
3000 experience and -25 karma for killing badger.  Time to go to the Shi Palace
again.

Go into the palace area, and then go in the door to the west.  Go forward a
bit, and then "repair" the funny bit next to the laser barrier to remove it. 
Go through to the mainframe and hack into it.  You get 3000 experience and -25
karma.  Go into diagnostics, and then format the hard drive.  The guards will
attack you, so kill them, and take their stuff.  You will become a beserker if
you weren't now, unfortunately.  Nearly everyone in Chinatown attacks you.  Oh
well.  Kill everyone.  It's sort of like Gecko Reactor, how you don't have any
choice.  Try and end combat ASAP.  If anyone knows a way to do this without
having to slaughter everyone, please tell me.  I ended up killing the merchants
too unfortunately, and I didn't want to do that.  But there is over 10000
experience from this fight, and over -300 karma too.  Go to the Hubologists.

Go down the stairs, and speak to AHS-9, who is just north of Crocket, the power
armour hardnener.  Tell him you've completed the job, and then he says he's
good and stuff.  Don't kill him though, because you are still evil.  You get
5000 experience and I think it's -50 karma, but it might be -60.  I'm not sure.
 Go to the tanker.

Don't talk to anyone in the tanker, in case they want to fight you.  Definitely
DO NOT talk to the guy next to the bar.  He fights you and gets everyone else
to fight you as well.  Go downstairs, and to the left there is a room with a
keycard thingo next to it.  Use the fob on the keycard machine for 2000
experience.  Go up the ladder and use the Navcom parts on the computer for
another 2000 experience.  Go to the Captain on the bridge, and he fights you. 
You have to kill him now, for 450 experience.  Save, and then use the computer,
and go to the enclave.

Here's the whole thing this time:

This is all the stuff I'm taking to the enclave.  I have advanced power armour
on, and have the mirrored shades and gauss rifle as my items.  When I go up a

perk.

THE ENCLAVE

When you get to the enclave, you get 15000 experience.  Like Navarro, this
place is full of enclavers, and they give you karma, so you don't want to kill
them.  Enter the building.

Go right, to where the floor is green.  Tell all your allies to wait here.  Go
a bit south, and then left, and use the computer.  Your science skill depends
on how much access you get.  I remember with 125 science or so I got all
access, but now with 100 science I only get the normal access and president
access.  Do not do anything is the president's options.  You save that for
later.  Now leave the screen to the right.

You're only in this area to loot stuff.  In the middle, where all the soldiers
are standing in front of their beds, loot the lockers.  There is heaps of 2mm
EC, enough to last you for ages.  In the top right corner is the armoury, which
is really good for all you big gunners.  There are rockets and an avenger
minigun there.  But everyone has to go there, to take all the C-4 from there. 
When you've finished looting, leave this screen to where you were, and then
leave the screen to the south of where your NPCs are.

Just below where you start is another armoury, with another avenger minigun and
more gauss ammo.  Go right, to the prison.  Go up and talk to the robed figure.
 She tells you all this stuff about the "effeevee" virus.  Go across the hall
and talk to the black man in the Vault Suit, and he can tell you how to help
them.  Loot this level, and then go down.

This level has an electrified floor maze.  It's set out like this:

1     2     3
4     5     6
7     8     9

Wait for the floor to discharge, then use computers in 2, 1 and 4, and then go
into the room west of 4.  Loot everything there.  Run straight east to the
other room.  Take the holy GECK if you don't have one on you.  I think then
it's like 6,5,3,5,6,3,8,9.  I know the last four are definitely right.  Go down
the stairs.

You get 2500 experience for surviving the puzzle room.  Go to the north west
room, where the scientist is in there with the computer and bookcases and
stuff.  Talk to him, and ask why humans are so different.  Keep on talking,
don't pull your gun on him, and then when you get the dialogue option, ask why
we humans are so different or something like that.  It comes up when there is
that really big dialogue option first.  Then you wait a bit, he decides to
release the FEV into the air, but he injects you with antidote, and makes sure
the antidote goes to the prisoners.  Then leave him.  You get 5000 experience.

Go to the room with the suited man behind the desk with the map of the world
behind him.  Close all the doors, and save your game.  Talk to him, but don't
tell him you are going to kill him.  When you've finished talking, go behind
him, sneak, enter combat, aim for eyes, kill him, wait a turn, and then end
combat.  Search his body and take his access key.  Go down the stairs that are
a bit to the north of where you are now.

Loot the lockers to the left, and then go to the room with the mainframe in the
north east.  Wait for the FEV to kill the scientists, and then save.  Place a
bomb to the south of the terminals, but still next to the mainframe.  Wait for
it to blow up, and you get 10000 experience, and 5 karma.  You have to do it
though, so I don't know why you get karma.  Go back up the stairs on this
screen.

All you have to do here is go south as far as you can, and the door with the
spiral staircase is now open.  Use it.

This is the level to the right of where you started off.  Leave this screen to
the left.  There are some enclave people right in front of you.  Talk to their
leader, and then say some stuff, and then say that they will blow up unless...
or something like that, and if you succeed a speech roll they will join you for
the last battle.  If you can't get them to join the first time, just keep
trying.  Get your NPCs to join you again, and then go a bit south, and then
walk over to the computer.  Use it, and then go into the president's access and
then use activate the counter insurgency.  The fight will then start.  It'll be
you, your NPCs, the enclave troops and the turrets all against Frank Horrigan. 
When he dies, go near him and he talks again and explodes.  Hooray (except for
the 30 karma or so you get).  Now leave.

THE END!!!

This is the ending I got.  If you don't want to know, look away now.

ARROYO

After the Enclave's destruction, the refugees of Vault 13 and Arroyo resettled,
building a new community with the aid of the Garden of Eden Creation Kit. 
Finding themselves hundreds of miles from their Vault, the members of Vault 13
chose to join the villagers in establishing a new community, and their
technical expertise, combined with the villager's survival skills, allowed the
new settlement to grow and prosper.  Two generations of the same bloodline were
re-united, and their saviour, the Chosen One, became elder, presiding over the
village in the years to come.

MODOC

The extermination of the Slags only creates new problems for Modoc.  Unable to
find the Slags' underground cistern that sustains the crops, Modoc is hit hard
by the resultant drought.  Over the next several years, the people of Modoc
either move away or die of starvation.

THE DEN

Metzger's business in the slave trade soon fades with the removal of the
Mordino family.  The Den continues to attract criminals, and Metzger's business
practices delve further into drugs and prostitution.  The Den soon becomes a
rallying point and safe haven for raiders in the region.

VAULT CITY

Over the next few years, the background radiation from Gecko's power plant
began to cause mutations in the Vault City population, forcing the citizens to
relocate to NCR.  NCR, however, recalling past animosity, relegated the Vault
City refugees to the status of second class citizens.

NEW RENO

The Salvatore family of New Reno, having profited from their ties to Navarro,
used their laser weaponry to burn the other families into submission.  The
resultant massacre was dubbed "Ash Friday" and is still celebrated in New Reno
to this day.

MYRON

Myron died less than a year after the defeat of the Enclave, stabbed by a jet
addict while drinking in the Den.  His discovery of jet was quickly forgotten,
and now there is no one who remembers his name.

GECKO

The Gecko Reactor meltdown had terrible consequences for the region.  The
resultant radioactivity and heat emanating from the reactor killed every living
thing in a ten-kilometre radius and poisoned the area for years to come.  Vault
City's perceived threat from the peaceful ghouls of Gecko was at an end.

REDDING

Several years after the Chosen One sold the excavator chip to Dangerous Dan
McGrew, Dan used the superior production of his Morningstar Mine to buy the
Kokoweef mine and then to reopen the Great Wannamingo Mine.  Dan then used his
industrial clout to forge an alliance of convenience with the families of New
Reno, trading gold in return for protection.

BROKEN HILLS

The death of the mutants ensured the death of the town.  Without their strength
and ability to withstand the toxins in the mine, the valuable ore proved
unattainable.  Those who caused this destruction rejoiced at first... until
they realised the foolishness of what they had done.  They struggled to keep
the community flourishing, but to no avail.  The winds and the waste scoured
Broken Hills from the map.

NEW CALIFORNIA REPUBLIC

Shaken by the assassination of Vice-President Carlson, right-wing elements
seize control of the Congress and set the New California Republic on the path
to military rule.  Eventually the survivors of the Enclave find a home in the
ranks of NCR.

VAULT 15

The squatters of Vault 15 continued their meaningless, non-productive lives. 
No one noticed when the desert wastes finally claimed 'The Squat'...

VAULT 13

By eliminating the deathclaws of Vault 13 you banished yet another species to
the realms of extinction, proving, once again, that genocide is a viable
solution to any problem...

SAN FRANCISCO

The Shi, demoralised and leaderless after your rampage through their town,
slowly drifted apart.  They blended into other towns, hoping to find a place
free from the depredations of killers.

As for the Tanker vagrants...well, as vagrants do, they drifted on.

SPECIAL ENCOUNTERS

XXXXXXX told me that I didn't put these in.  It's just that I didn't think they
were really evil enough.  But since a high luck score is what you need to get
these encounters, and a high luck is what you have, I thought I should put it
in.

A man guarding a bridge:
Here you answer questions to the bridgekeeper.  If you answer the first two
questions correctly, and then answer the third one with another question, he
will get hit for 990 damage and die.  You get 750 experience, and you can take
his bridgekeepers robes, which are useful until you get the power armour in
military base, as they are half the weight of combat armour with the same
protection.  If you answer the third question correctly, he will just walk off
saying that he doesn't get to answer the good questions and stuff.  Or you can
fight him, and he summons mad brahmin which explode for lots of damage to you
when they die.  To kill him you have to aim at his eyes and get a critical hit.
 He has 400 HP and a very high damage resistance.

Answers to the first to questions are easy.  The third one has many different
questions:

What NPC is in Fallout 2 that was in Fallout?
Answer:  Harold, Tandi, Dogmeat, A player NPC or combat NPC? Or something like
that.

What requirements do you need for the strong back perk?
Answer:  The level requirement or the ability requirement?

All you have to do is answer the question back and he dies.

King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table:
You meet King Arthur here, with his "knights".  They all have advanced power
armour and plasma rifles and stuff.  You can talk to the king, and then if your
speech is good enough you can make up a direction when he asks where the Holy
Hand Grenade is, and he gives you a plasma pistol.  If you don't have good
enough speech, you ask where the GECK is and he makes up a direction.  If you
encounter this at a high level you can fight them, for some good negative karma
I would think.  Or if you are a low level, wait for most of them to leave the
screen and then shoot the last one and kill him for some experience and karma. 
There is no holy hand grenade, it was designed to be put in but the designers
never ended up doing it.

Unwashed Villagers hunting a Spammer:
Here lots of Unwashed Villagers are hunting a spammer.  The spammer has around
300 HP, and the Villagers have pistols and knives and stuff.  There is history
to this, how the Unwashed Villagers message board got a spammer in it or
something.  So that's why they fight the spammer.  You can kill the Unwashed
Villagers for 1 experience each, and take their stuff.  There's a locker in the
south west in a building that you can take stimpacks from.

Cafe of Broken Dreams:
This is the Maltese Falcon from Fallout, without the original characters, and
without the stairs going down to that guy that hires you to kill people.  Take
off your armour, and talk to the dog, who is Dogmeat from Fallout.  He joins
your group.  Dogmeat is really good if you get him early, and he gets lots of
critical hits.  You can talk to the people there, but it isn't useful.

Federation Shuttle:
It shows some dead people from Star Trek I think, and they have Hypos on their
dead bodies, which you can take, and they heal you to full HP.  I never end up
using them though, because they are rare.  Oh well.

Radiation Plant or something:
This is a bad luck encounter, so you won't get it.  It has a radiation area,
where you get radiated every second, like in The Glow in Fallout maybe.  I've
never gotten it before.  There are also geckos there.

Pariah Dog:
I've never gotten this, but it's a bad luck encounter.  You see a dog, with
lots of dead bodies around it.  When you talk to it, it follows you, and you
get -3 or -4 or something luck, and the jinxed trait.  It has 400 or 750 hit
points, I'm not sure.  You can't get rid of it unless you kill it, but
sometimes the game stuffs up and the dog stays stuck following you, using an
NPC slot.

Tin Woodsman:
I got this twice in one game once.  You pick up the oil can, and use it on the
tin woodsman, and you get 150 micro fusion cells I think.  It's supposed to be
the tin woodsman from that story with Dorothy and Toto, "The Wizard of Oz".  Oh
well.

A Guardian Portal:
It has a stone ring there, so walk through it.  This is Vault 13 80 years ago,
when Fallout started.  Walk around, loot the lockers, and in one of the rooms
on the floor is a Solar Scorcher, an energy weapon.  I don't like it for that
reason.  But it only reloads when it is day or in light areas, but uses no
ammo.  Go and use the main computer, and the water chip breaks, and you get
1000 experience.  That was how Fallout started.

Stone Head:
It talks, and you keep clicking on it, and it gives you a monument piece, which
gives you damage resistance like psycho, but I don't know if it increases
stats.  It is supposed to though, but of course I never used it.  It is like
psycho perhaps.  I don't know.

Merchants:
There are special merchants in the game, there is Willy above Modoc, who can
sell alien blasters, and if you kill him when he has them you get 5.  I think
the Alien Blaster would rule if you had fast shot and additional rate of fire,
because each shot would be 1 AP I think.  It would be like the old days 80
years ago when you could use the super sledgehammer and power fist for 1 AP. 
Oh well.  I don't like energy weapons anyway.

Another merchant is below San Fran, who can sell the Xl9348 or whatever.  It's
like a funny assault rifle.  You can get it if you kill all the people in the
Tanker though.  I never got this encounter.

I might have forgotten some of these so tell me if I have.

CONCLUSION

Well that's a pretty good ending.  Except for Redding of course, but the only
ending I had ever got before this was the bad one.  It says how lots of other
towns tried to take over Redding, and then eventually everyone moved, and there
was nothing left of the desicated husk that was once Redding.  You can get that
ending by pretty much doing nothing there.  For the ending of Arroyo, even
after getting rid of the GECK you still get that ending.  For Vault 13, you
would get that ending anyway, but this time you actually earn it.  If there was
a hubologist ending it would say that the hubologist ship took off and then
crashed or something.  Well that's all.  Please e-mail me and tell me the stuff
I missed out on!


Please E-mail me about stuff I've missed.  Then I can put you in credits and
stuff.  You can put this walk-through where you want on a site or whatever as
long as it is in it's original form and has my name on it, but please tell me
if you want.  I would like to know, but you don't have to.  You are not
supposed to sell this or whatever, I don't know why you would want to, but I
couldn't care less if you do as long as it has everything in it and especially
my name on it.  If you are going to take bits out of this you have to ask me
first.  I will pretty much probably say you can.  Please visit my site
www.geocities.com/whitechocobo666/.  It has a good chocobo game that you should
go in.  Chocobos are good.  Y e-mail is whitechocobo666@yahoo.com.  Please
e-mail me if you know stuff i've missed out that is evil or no karma, but no
positive karma ones.  Please tell me stuff!

care much.
