midwestern brotherhood of steel power armor

I lean towards Tactics got Enclave power armor from that region for a reason and that is why they were mentioned in New Vegas. We know the Midwestern BoS does not possess the Calculators technology or the Enclave would not exist in Chicago, they would be dead. So the only thing that for sure DID NOT happen that we know of is Calculators army spreading across the wasteland and making enough of an impact for anyone to notice. The fucking BoS trekked across the entire UNITED STATES. Barring that explanation you have the obvious answer being the Mutants were spread across the region because.well they were. They probably watched the intro and said 'TACTICS REFERENCE' and called it good. Saying they fought Mutants in Chicago is correct because they clearly meant to reference Tactics for one. I understand not wanting the BOS to be in the game, or preferring them the old way, but if the BoS being Knights of the Round was the WORST part of Fallout 3, we would have been all good. Instead of focusing on why the game really sucks like mediocre writing, first person view, very little C&C, etc we nitpicked whether there are enough Mole Rats in a 5 mile radius of Megaton to properly supply food to the people inside.

NMA was screwed from the start with people nitpicking minor story details they don't specifically like. I tend to think someone at Bethesda keeps throwing in references to Tactics because it is essential to the Lyon's BoS being in the region. People will point out these aren't the same. Maybe in the game that features Chicago (or Detroit) I hope. So fans can debate over it until they maybe possibly decide to say something about it one day in the future. I wonder who them dudes might be? I wonder where those fucking Zeppelins came from in 4? Gee I wonder why they mentioned Chicago in New Vegas? Do you guys need someone to come out and say 'TACTICS STUFF HAPPENED' before it is taken as fact? Click to expand.How can we say Tactics is not canon when they left California to LOOK FOR THE MIDWESTERN BOS!? The Legion points out the BoS scouts they found around the region did not even know the Elder back West.
