Powder Gangers

Powder Gangers are packs of criminals from the eastern parts of the New California Republic.

Background
When NCR attempted to expand east, they needed railways to carry supplies to distant locations, especially places ripe for colonization. For this task, The New California Republic used criminals from their Black Canyon prison who were approaching the end of their sentences. Unfortunately, when NCR started to have financial problems, payments to the workers started coming up late or short. Eventually, the workers decided to take matters into their own hands, seizing the work stations and all the blasting powder they could find. They became powder gangs, blowing up any and all caravans and railways they came across .They are involved in many quests and if the PC chooses to help Goodsprings they will appear all over the wasteland trying to kill you.
