War. War Never Changes....
Since the dawn of human kind, when our ancestors first discovered the killing power of rock and bone, blood has been spilled in the name of everything: from God to justice to simple, psychotic rage.
In the year 2077, after millennia of armed conflict, the destructive nature of man could sustain itself no longer. The world was plunged into an abyss of nuclear fire and radiation.
But it was not, as some had predicted, the end of the world. Instead, the apocalypse was simply the prologue to another bloody chapter of human history. For man had succeeded in destroying the world - but war, war never changes
In 2277 the vault dweller, known as the lone wanderer, set out in search of their father who had escaped the vault. The wanderer experienced many a hardship to find their father, and when they did he was killed right in front of them. Escaping the Jefferson Memorial with Dr. Li, the two joined up with the Eastern Brotherhood of Steel and Elder Lyons. The Brotherhood and the Wanderer tried to fight the Enclave, but in the end failed and the wanderer, along with elder Lyons and the Eastern Brotherhood, fell at their hands. Now the Enclave are free to take back the Captiol Wasteland, the Commonwealth areas, and later America.
However, without Project Purity at their disposal, the Enclave are at a standstill. Knowing they need more men and women to serve, they start recruiting Citizens of vaults and those who have remained uninfected by radiation. Now, you must choose, do you join the Enclave in their conquest to take back America, or do you attempt to join up with a smaller group such as the minute men, or remnants of the Eastern Brotherhood.
