Fallout 1: What if the Master won? - Fallout alternate history

The Fallout 23rd century lives in the shadow of the Vault Dweller and their achievements.

Based ending

It's unlikely the Brotherhood and enclave can beat the master, a single mutant is equal or even stronger than a paladin and the mutants have Elite equipments.

If the master won, I'm pretty sure everyone else would be pretty screwed.

I bet the institutes superior mutants from their improved FEV fight against the masters super mutant army since their mutants where made with a worse version of FEV that wasn't perfected lol

I'm sure nothing bad could happen long term from the two factions most focused on "human purity" teaming up for any kind of extended time.

Don't forget that we know the Enclave also had soldiers at this point that specialized in stealthy infiltration, so maybe they could have gotten some of those units and to help placed explosives just general round the outside to cull the super mutants a bit as the vertebrae's were coming to reduce the anti air fire

I Wonder how long will it take the Master to realize that his super mutants can't reproduce, will he take his own life this time? Will the lieutenant take over ad leader in that's the case?

This should be a fallout game in its self like a retcon version

Fallout 4? "Choice based"?!? LMAO

Together as one fist
Forever
ALL HAIL THE EMPIRE

Fallout 1 the vault dweller will be a more of a frank horrigan for the master in his plan.

I imagine if the master knew about the enclave and learned about the reproduction problem with the FEV virus, he would go after the enclave scientists to get them to try and modify the FEV virus to solve the issue and regain his people's lost genitalia

I wouldn’t be surprised if in the hub there was posters saying (to the last man to the last bullet we will fight)

Honestly i think the enclave wouldve just sent out their mutant killer of a virus early when they realized the control group was gone

So, I've watched a few of these vids... no doubt out of order... but this was the first one I watched that went against the title at the end, for no reason. "What if the Master won?" and suddenly, well, here's how the Master loses. >.>

I think there should be a part 2 and 3 to this with the master taking over California and the entire west coast as part 1

Part 2 could be The Master dealing with New Vegas and the midwest including Caesar's Legion and the Midwest BoS.

And part 3 concludes it with The Master taking on the East Coast BoS , The Institute, The Minutemen, The Railroad along with The Gunners, various raiders, Far Harbor, The Mechanist and her robot army, and Nuka World's raiders

You said that the Enclave would be no threat to the Master's army but I would argue against that. The Enclave's strength are their vertibirds and unmatched power armor. Lore-wise, a single Enclave soldier is worth 3-4 Brotherhood Paladins when it comes to combat effectiveness. They've got the most combat ability per capita. If Enclave managed to learn about the Cathedral, they could use vertibirds to launch a massed assault on Master's lair, in order to kill him, destroy the vats and cut the snake's head. It would undoubtedly be costly for them but since mutants are sterile and can't reproduce without vats, it would be a guaranteed victory, in due time. Only thing they would have to look out for would be the intelligent mutants trying to make new FEV vats but that should be manageable in the same manner.

If the institutes synth program is up and running by the time they reach Boston then they might be able to put up a decent fight

Whatever, Frank would just roflstomp.

What's the name of the background music ?

The master would learn to use the FEV produced inside him to create a new breed of mutant, bound and compelled by the master, less strong than previous mutants but still intelligent.

Yknow thingd are fucked when the Enclave is called ‘the Last Hope of Humanity’

Everyone is talking about new vegas but I wonder if they'd make it to boston by the time of fallout 4.

In fallout 3 the enclave had that thing that changed the water that kills mutants and things so they could iradicate them all right ? 🤔

God Bless America God Bless The Enclave!

Rodger Maxson would be against working with the enclave in this scenario but would take the enemy of my enemy is my friend approach to it

Couldn't the Enclave call down a strike from an orbiting weapons platform?

Both of the soldiers should have been yelling "FOR MUTUALLY ASSURED SURVIVAL"

This and the video on House getting the Platinum Chip inspired me to conceive of an AU where the survivors of California make a mass exodus to the east, rather than standing and fighting the mutants. Together, the denizens of Nevada start looking for the Platinum Chip in earnest, finding it and activating the Securitron Army. This is only the first step, though, as all the local towns, tribes and factions are told the horror stories of the California Refugees; Big Mountain, the Boomers, the Desert Rangers, all of them make preparations for a unified front.

Meanwhile, back in Cali, the Unity Army is building it's own strength, creating mutant animals for fodder and Psykers for spies and interrogators. Ghouls are accepted into the Unity as well; while not exactly equals to the mutants, they enjoy a higher status than humans. The Enclave stays on the oil rig, relying on their isolation and anonymity, launching hit and run missions while engineering their modified FEV bioweapon as fast as possible, with plans to disperse it via the jetstream as per FO2, unless someone convinces them otherwise.

Then there's the other Enclave outposts like Chicago, Raven Rock and Adams AFB, to say nothing of Vault 0 and the Calculator's Robots...

All I'm hearing is no NCR so definitely better for the timeline

The Enclave was working on FEV. I suspect their plans wouldn’t have changed. Stay hidden, make a FEV virus strain to kill the super mutants, ghouls, and irradiated humans. Release when ready.

As long as the Enclave have Vertibirds they could straight up go into Cathedral or Mariposa and mount a full attack on the mutants, they would need to deploy a distance outside

Alternatively they can use the nuke on the Rig to end Mariposa, then move to the Master en force

Oops I forgot to save the vault or village now they are dead

The Enclave would have just used the modified FEV. With nobody to stop them, they'd destroy the unity in a week.

To much nukes still exist for this to happen

i love alliance of bos and enclave, great video!

I like to think the path where the Enclave and BoS teaming up to destroy Mariposa and the Master could've been triggered by Vault City's First Citizen sending a distress signal to the Enclave alerting them to the Super Mutant assault of their town before dying.

i really really REALLY want Fallout 5 tp be this specific what if scenario

But remember the Enclave's whole plan in Fallout 2. They could easily destroy the mutants with this. They could defend their rig until the modified FEV they would use is done, they have such advanced technology.

I would love to see a spinoff based on this scenario.

I think it would be really neat to see a super mutant army return in a fallout game than the player character would need to unite a bunch of factions into a big alliance to fight them that would be rally cool, just brotherhood , enclave , Ncr, the Minutemen and a bunch more to fight off a giant mutant army

Won what? Sooner or later, he would have realized that super mutants are all sterile and that's that. His plans for the perfect society would have crumbled either way.

What music is this in background

For the Emperor!


Wait.....


Wrong franchise

Isn't the point of getting pure humans is so they are more likely to survive the FEV process? If i recall, the problem with turning people into super mutants with FEV is that, during the war, a version of FEV got loose into the air and infected everything resulting in survivors getting a sort of immunity to FEV. So 10% of the population could be turned into mutants with exposed to the FEV vats with the rest dying because their bodies have a better chance of fighting off the 'improvements'. Vault 13 however is full of people uninfected with FEV making them the perfect candidates.

If the whole enclave brotherhood thing never happened I feel like the mutants would eventually get to the commonwealth. And by that time the institute was probably doing fev research. The would send their synths out only to realize the mutants have taken over. They would probably put more time into the fev research. Maybe finding a weakness in them. And the mutants would probably not find a way in. And though synths may not be a threat to them. The institute can send hundred of them out to hunt them. Although I don’t think they would find the master.

My life for you Jumps in fev tank

The enclave has acces to nukes, dont think there would too many problems in for example launching the nukes in virgina. they should have the capacity to travel there and repair the communications. getting to defcon 1 would also not be hard since situation is grave

my dude mutants have no genitals
