Sloan

Sloan is a small settlement for the Quarry Junction miners located in the Mojave Wasteland, east of Goodsprings.

Background
Sloan is a mining camp off the Long 15 Highway. It was once a place where workers earned a good living, until deathclaws showed up and infested the quarry. The miners are now out of work unless someone can solve their deathclaw problem.

Layout
When entering Sloan from the south you will be on a road, the Long 15. To the left of the road are four main buildings and 1 outhouse. The leftmost building, worker barracks, has two skill books, Dean's Electronics and Duck and Cover, as well as some other loot. The second building, the Mining office, has a stash of bottle caps noted curiously for donations. The third building, the machine shop, has a workbench and some scrap metal, a few tubes of Wonderglue and other loot. The last building, the mess hall is where you get the unmarked quest, You Gotta Break Out a Few Eggs.

Notable loot

 * Sunset Sarsaparilla star bottle cap on table in mess hall
 * Several strange meat pies can be found in the back of the mess hall
 * Rose's wasteland omelet recipe is obtained after doing the unmarked quest, You Gotta Break Out a Few Eggs.
 * Dean's Electronics - worker barracks on the shelf to the left of the door when you enter.
 * Duck and Cover! - Worker barracks below the first aid box on shelves at rear.
 * A large sum of caps located in two trunks side by side in the upstairs level of the mining office.
 * 9mm pistol plus some random weapons and ammunition in the worker barracks (e.g. sawed-off shotgun, 10mm pistol and ammunition).
 * An average locked safe, upstairs in the mining office, contains a small amount of caps.
 * 6 pulse grenades can be found in a metal box in between two bunk beds to the right when you enter the Worker Barracks.

Bugs

 * The sand around Sloan may become pixelated and slow down and/or freeze gameplay.
 * Deathclaws may spawn close enough to spot the miners and charge at them.
 * Occasionally, the Alpha Male Deathclaw will spawn next to you when leaving a building in Sloan.
