The Legacy of Saint Leibowitz

- Max Entrenchment: +3.0%
Saint Leibowitz was an electrical engineer before the Great War. When the bombs fell he fled the military base he worked in, seeking refuge from the nuclear fire in one of the Churches of the Archdiocese of Santa Fe. There he became a monk in the order, becoming one of the Archdiocese's best agents. Betrayed by his close friend, Leibowitz became a Martyr. Years later, he was canonized by the 102nd Archbishop in recognition for his work protecting valuable remnants of the Old World. The monks continue to guard his relics, but would rather lose their lives than see them lost.

Gameplay
Conscription Law
Archdiocese of Santa Fe has the Wasteland Recruitment Conscription Law
|
The wasteland is an unhospitable place, a good defence force is more than justified. However with the increasing percentage of settlers dedicated to defence, the workshops slow down ever more. (Generic/minor countries start at Funded militias)  Settlement Protection
As far back as the rebuilding of civilization, a system of decentralized and localized levying of troops contained to individual settlements have served us well in every conflict until now. While not effective on a strategical scale, the recruitment of officers and building of regional training bases let us leave soldiers relatively close to home, boosting moral as well as civilian manpower.
Requirements
 Wasteland Militias
With the constantly emerging threat of the wasteland and neighbouring nations, it would do us well to reform our army into something more strategically sound. Organizing levies into regional militias let us improve our command effectiveness without pulling them from their homes, and increased funding allocated to training and recruitment increases our forces.
Requirements
 Funded Militias
Investing even more into our organization is a sound decision, considering the state of the wasteland. Pulling funds toward the construction of military bases let us concentrate our forces even more, as well as providing a reinforced structure within which our soldiers can train more freely with their new "toys" that our taxpayers gracefully helped acquire.
Requirements
 Two Year Conscription
Forcing a conscription onto our population might make a lot of people very unhappy, but it is sadly a decision we will have to take to prepare properly. To minimize the effects of conscription, a two year rotation will be put into law, which should provide our conscripts with some breathing room and a light at the end of the tunnel.
Requirements
 Four Year Conscription
Extending the conscription to a four year rotation will considerably increase our available manpower, but with it comes consequences. Massive funding has to be allocated to train conscripts to a decent standard for our army, and moral is slowly degrading even if our citizens understand our situation. We must be careful if we are to go further.
Requirements
 Service Until Dismissal
As of now, our government has officially declared a state of emergency. Every conscription centre is to pull overtime, and conscripts will only be dismissed when we deem them no longer useful, or the emergency passes. With moral now plummeting as civilians are even pulled from the factories and their homes, we must remember we are doing this to preserve our way of life.
Requirements
 War Never Changes
Civilians ripped from their homes, fathers, mothers; sons, daughters. But what choice do we have against the apocalypse? Are we to leave ourselves perish, are we not to rage against our fate until the bitter end? Already, the forced conscriptions and training leave kind-hearted people into empty shells. Our nation might never forgive us. Our citizens will hate us, our officers will resent us, and our culture might never recover fully. But it is all worth it if only to leave a hateful nation standing. Damned be the wasteland for leaving us no choice, and damned be our souls for going down this path. War truly never changes.

Bottle Caps Economy
The rest of the wasteland operates on the basis of Nuka Cola bottle caps, previousy called Hub bucks, as their adoption is first documented in The Hub market. At one point Caps even operated on a so called Water Standard.

Behind the scenes
- The Archdiocese of Santa Fe has several references to the novel A Canticle for Leibowitz by Walter M. Miller Jr. The novel follows a post-apocalyptic Catholic monastery founded by an electrical engineer named Isaac Edward Leibowitz, who dedicated his life to preserving technical knowledge (known to the monks as "The Memorabilia") after a nuclear war.
