Repulsion Device



Repulsion devices are technological security device used to preventing a person entering a specific area, confine captives to a particular zone or make a person unable to perform a specific action. There are several type of repulsion device like laser tripwires and pulse fields, but the most used and the most famous is the force field.

Force fields
Force fields are photonic resonance barrier creating a wall of energy. They have many applications and varying degrees of strength and can completely block a passage or injure a person passing through. However, most force fields are non-lethal. Generally, solid objects cannot pass through it.

Generator force field
The most common pre-War and post-War force fields. They are powered by a separate power source and can usually be disabled with an accessible mean.

Yellow force field
The principal force fields used in Core Region. It has a yellow color, it's powered by an emitter positioned to the left and it cannot be moved. It is impossible to pass through a it without disabling it first. Yellow force fields may be temporarily disabled by tinkering with the force field emitter.

Red force field
This is perculiar force field as it is possible to pass through it, but this will result in various amounts of health damage. It based on the yellow force field and even powered by an emitter, however they cannot by disabled and like the yellow force field, cannot be moved.

Blue force field
An advanced force field, mostly used by the Enclave after 2241. It has a blue color and it's powered by two large transportable generators, one on either side of the path. These generate the blue force field between the two pylon generators and have an increased width and the size than a standard force field. It is possible to create a large barrier by combining several blue force fields between them. Generators cannot be destroyed and it is impossible to pass through them.

Forcefields used to protect sections of Raven Rock and the Mobile Base Crawler can be bypassed using nearby terminals, doing so requires a high (80) science skill. They can also be damaged with the explosives skill (50), allowing access but at the cost of slight health damage when passing thought the field. Smashing the panel has a similar effect.

Door force fields
A rare force field and one of the two type used by aliens. They are powered by several beams embedded in the margins of an entry and they cannot be moved.

Yellow force field
A force field only used in Vault City and the Enclave Oil Rig. It has a yellow color and it's used in captive areas as a door. It is impossible to pass through it without disabling it first. They can be disabled by using nearby terminals.

Blue force field
A force field only used in the Sierra Madre vault. It has a blue color and it used in the entrance area front in the entry of the Sierra Madre vault as a door. It is impossible to pass through it without disabling it first. They can be disabled by remote hacking.

White force field
The principal force field of aliens. It has a white color and it used in captive areas as a door. It is impossible to pass through it without disabling it first. They can be disabled by using nearby terminals or buttons.

Big MT force field
Big MT have developed several versions of force field based on the blue door force field. However, they were created in a different photonic resonance frequency than other and a soundwave emitter can easily disable them with the right frequency.

Blue force field
The standard force field used in Big MT, created by several beams inscruted in a structure. They possible to create a large barrier by combining several blue force field between them.

Container force field
A container equipped with a blue force field.

Force field generator
A deployable force field used by aliens that protects against ballistic and energy weapon fire, and which also inhibit the movement of people. It can be deactivated by destroying the projection unit behind the force field.

Pulse field
An electromagnetic pulse grid used by the Chinese to protect their base of operations in the Anchorage Reclamation simulation. It paralyzes the circuits of every electronic device crossing it, including power armor, causing irreversible damage and the wearer suffers a massive electrocution, collapses and die through powerful electromagnetic pulses (powerful EMP has minimal effects on biological systems but the wearer here is linked to his power armor). It can be disabled by a controlled computer terminal near it.

Pacification field
A unique field used in Big MT at The Think Tank dome.

Radar fence
A unique field implanted around Big MT in the crater.

Energy field
A unique field implanted in the Secret Vault.
