Fort Bannister

Fort Bannister is a Talon Company outpost near Vault 87 in the Capital Wasteland. It is heavily guarded by several Talon mercenaries in entrenched positions and shooting platforms.

It appears that when the bombs fell Fort Bannister took a heavy beating. The external sections of the fort are almost completely destroyed with small craters surrounding a singularly massive nuclear crater. Despite the near-total annihilation of the fort above, the underground sections remain mostly intact.

The underground bunker is extensive and can be accessed either by lock picking the bunker entrance door in the SW corner of the fort (need lockpick 100) or through the sewer access point found inside the tent located in the crater in the NW corner of the base. The underground levels of the fort are crawling with Talon Company Mercs who are all very heavily armed. If your combat skills are good enough to clear the place out, the area contains a staggering amount of valuable hardware to scavenge. In the Commanding Officer's Quarters is Commander Jabsco and a Mister Gutsy.

Hint: Try shooting the missile launchers out of the mercenary's hands if you're having trouble with them.
