George (Fallout: New Vegas)

George is a prospector living in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.

Other interactions
The courier meets George while going up the road towards Nellis Airforce Base. The Boomers occupy Nellis and rain artillery down on anyone approaching.

George offers to tell you how to get past the artillery for 300 caps, but he sweetens the deal by saying that if you make it to the gate and back alive, he will give you back double your 300.

Upon returning to collect your caps, you can lie to him with a speech check to return you 1000 caps instead of 600. With a barter skill of 40 you can bet 200 caps instead of 300, lying to him upon your return nets 700 caps. He also mentions a tunnel to the south that can get you there but "which no one has ever returned from".

(Need confirm) It seem impossible to get 1000 caps even your speech 60. When your speech < 60, "I thing it deserves closer to 1000 caps" option appear, but if your speech >= 60, only " Make it 700 caps...." will option.

When you pay the 300 caps, he gives you a note with the Nellis Artillery Timing Details. Oddly, the information in the note is wrong (maybe intentionally to insure that George doesn't have to pay off?). The true way to get in safely is to hug the rocks on the left side of the road and continue until you reach the fence. Then you simply walk the fence line until you reach the gate.
