The delivery goes horribly awry, however, and after you are robbed and nearly killed for the package you were carrying, you must set out in pursuit of your attackers. You are Courier six, an employee of the Mojave Express who has been entrusted with delivering a mysterious Platinum Chip. But the mysterious overlord of New Vegas has his own plans for the future of the Mojave… Stuck in the middle are the residents of Nevada and the jewel in the desert the city of New Vegas. War never changes, and impending conflict looms between the two sides, the prize being the Hoover Dam and control over the Mojave. They’ve expanded east into Nevada, but across the Colorado river to the east a united army of tribals - Caesar’s Legion - have been organized under the guise of ancient Rome. The year is 2281 - two hundred years after the old world was eradicated by nuclear fire - and now the New California Republic has become powerful along the western coast of what used to be the United State of America.
