fallout new vegas vertibird
A vertibird with serial number VEM-105 2193 rests at the bottom of a large crater. Hostile hardened sentry bots and/or hardened Mister Gutsies are nearby. Feral ghouls may also roam on the outskirts. A few skeletons and the Tesla-Beaton prototype are near the wreckage.
An Enclave vertibird is located in the Remnants bunker and can be seen in the battle for the dam, if the Courier convinces them to support their cause. A crashed vertibird also appears in the Mojave Wasteland, surrounded by unique to the location hardened sentry bots and Mister Gutsies.
A crashed vertibird can be found in the southern Mojave Wasteland, and several Vertibirds are seen crashed at the Long 15 if it is nuked during The Apocalypse. One is known to have been converted to a presidential transport, labeled Bear Force One, and is seen during President Kimball's visit to Hoover Dam.
Vertibirds in Appalachia closely resemble those seen in the Commonwealth. Crashed vertibirds can be found across Appalachia and automated vertibirds, known as vertibots, can be seen patrolling the skies above certain military installations and workshops.
If one decides to join the raiders (or play along until a chance to escape) at the end of Hell's Gate, Join The War Machine starts. The first objective is to meet Johnathan Nos on the vertibird platform above the main mine to go on a raid against the New California Republic. Talk to him after listening to his short speech. He will allow one human companion to be brought along; take Johnny Matheson if he is available, as he is the only companion willing to join the raiders. ALPHA and B-6-RK, if they are repaired, can also be brought along.
If one wants to join the NCR instead, several options exist. If opting for a stealthy exit, the quest Cards Under the Table can be started by talking to Wilson Wilco, located right outside the mine cavern. If combat is not a concern, trying to steal the vertibird parked near the machine hangar or running for the main gate will turn the raiders hostile and start Escape Athens-Tec Mine. Alternatively, freeing Kira Mann during Kira's Quest, detonating the companions' slave collars from Casio Aralias' terminal, or otherwise committing crimes against the Raiders will also turn them hostile and start the quest.
During the vertibird ride, Nos will instruct one to kill Captain Less Jameson. The actual quest objective is to kill both Captain Jameson and Ranger Kerry Vargas. Killing those two people puts the player character firmly in the Raider quest line (and/or the Enclave quest line if previously chosen to join them). If Cards Under the Table is active, it will fail when one of them is killed.
Exiting the vertibird will deposit the player character on the Raider-controlled north side of the I-138 - I-15 beltway. The side quest Waters at Her Feet can be started here by talking to Atl Irepani, who is kneeling at a Madre shrine nearby. Captain Jameson is located far to the south behind a large wrecked trailer truck, and Ranger Vargas is on a bridge to the east. Jameson is guarded by a large number of NCR troopers, and carries the unique Lee Enfield 3.
I have the key to the safe room, there has to be a way to get him in there! Do I just damage the vertibird while he is giving the speech? I don't have any guns, and punching the vertibird doesn't do anything. 2ff7e9595c
