Broken Hills

Revision as of 19:43, 29 April 2010

Broken Hill's sign as seen in Fallout 2.

History

Right after the Master's death, a supermutant named Marcus was wandering aimlessly in the wasteland. He met Jacob, a power-armouredBrotherhood of Steel knight that had sworn to kill all mutants. They fight a day or two, then became friends, as none of them was able to kill the other. Wandering together, they attracted a bunch of refugees from the war, and ghouls escaped from the Necropolis slaughter. They eventually founded Broken Hills, a settlement where every race was living in peace, exploiting the uranium mine there.

Description

As Broken Hills is a bit far from usual routes, players don't really go there ; there are also not much things of interest in town. Eventually the city became a battlefield for all the players that like to fight, since they are able to seize the town control there, but also to flee in the streets and take out large groups of players, if they are skilled enough.

Activities

• Broken Hills contains quests.
• You can trade with merchants there.
• The Town Control system, implemented in Broken Hills, makes this town a battlefield at the right time.
• You can rent hotel rooms there, in the Residential area.
