Mod:Frost/Army Remnants

Army Remnants are a faction in Fallout: FROST.

Overview
While the Commonwealth has been almost completely overrun with feral ghouls and disturbed survivors, the US Army has managed to keep hold of a few strongholds.

Over the past 5 years, the Army has learned not to trust the average wastelander, due to their tendency to be cannibalistic madmen.

Army remnants are hostile to survivors and often shoot on sight. It is rumored throughout the Commonwealth that the remnants are commanded by a shadowy figure called the "Enclave ".

Occasionally, they will make use of automated machine gun turrets to aid in defense.

Tactical Considerations
The Army remnants still make use of their old military-issue equipment, and consequentially have a major technological edge over other factions. Their soldiers have access to combat armor, assault rifles, and laser and plasma weapons.

The Army still has access to a few functional suits of T-60 power armor, often fielded in tandem with heavy support weapons such as miniguns, flamethrowers, or Gatling lasers.

Most dangerously, the military has access to Vertibirds which are extremely effective at gunning down any threat, and are highly resistant to all damage, usually requiring multiple direct hits from a rocket launcher to take down.

While it is entirely possible to succeed using stealth melee tactics, it is recommended to use ranged attacks for taking down remnants from a distance if possible, as a head-on attack will almost always result in death, especially, since most remnants operate in groups, protecting each other.

Army Remnants are a good source of combat armor, comparably high quality weaponry and ammo, providing for an exceptionally high return for taking the risk of engaging them.
