The player assumes the role of an initiate, a new member of the Brotherhood. The Brotherhood accepted new recruits, and quickly became a regional power.Īs the game begins, the Brotherhood is trying to claim territory in and around Chicago, both through eliminating raiders and mutants, and offering protection to the locals. The Brotherhood established a relationship with the locals, trading their advanced technology and medicine for food and labor. Many of the ships were destroyed in a lightning storm however, and the survivors were forced to land outside the ruins of Chicago.
A minority within the Brotherhood wanted to accept the other wastelanders and they separated into their own group and were sent west in airships to destroy the rest of the mutant army. They dedicated themselves to preserving science and technology, sometimes at the expense of the rest of the wastelanders. The Brotherhood faced the wasteland with a surplus of technology, and quickly spread out over the west coast. Unlike most of the Fallout games, Tactics focuses on the Brotherhood of Steel, a west coast group of pre-apocalypse soldiers that deserted the government upon discovering the vault experiments. However, parts of the game can be considered implicit canon as long as they do not contradict official canon.ĭespite the confusing similarity between the names, there is no relation whatsoever between this PC-exclusive game and the console-exclusive action-RPG Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel, aside from both using the Fallout franchise. In the final patch to the game after release, the developers included some of their own tools used in making the game to allow fans to make custom content for it.įrom a storyline perspective, Fallout Tactics is not officially recognized as canon by current IP-owner Zenimax. The game also supports multistory buildings, three stance positions (standing, crouched, and prone), full control over party members, and a separate PvP multiplayer mode. Whereas Fallout and Fallout 2 were open world games with freeform questing and exploration throughout, Fallout Tactics is structured into a linear progression of discreet missions with the open world serving merely as a transit space between missions.įallout Tactics adds some new features to the combat of the original Fallout games - the most different being the option to run combat in real-time (called "continuous turn-based" or CTB).
Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel is a squad-based tactical combat game that takes place in the post-apocalyptic wasteland of the Fallout series.
