Talon Company

Talon Company is an organization active in the Capital Wasteland which tries to resist the super mutant occupiers of Washington, DC. Even as far as mercenaries go, these men and women are vicious, killing anyone that doesn't wear their emblem, not unlike Raiders.

A bounty may be taken out on your life, and Talon Company is one of the groups looking for you. It is also possible that maintaining a neutral karma will keep Talon Company "friendly" towards you.

In early previews, Pete Hines was said to have stated that the humans going up against the mutant occupiers were mercenaries working for the Talon Corporation, however, it is most likely a previewer's mistake, as no mention of a Corporation is made in the game.

In the Capital Wasteland area they operate out of Fort Bannister and Talon Company Camp west of Grayditch. You will sometimes come across a fireteam of three mercs, patrolling through the Wasteland or in various towns. If they have a contract for your death, you may also be ambushed by them after either fast travelling or zoning to a new location. Killing these fireteams should keep you in supply of armour and ammo, as they each wear a Talon Combat Armor and tend to have more advanced weaponry as you level up; feel free to use the nearest exit as a rest stop while your Action Points regenerate.
