Factions in 2275

Major Factions

NCR

While the NCR is a powerful faction, in 2275 it's power comes mainly from the size, and power of the New California Republic and the strategic location of the Mojave Territories which controls The Dam as well as encircles the entirety of the Mojave Chapter. Despite their apparent initial strength, the Flag of New California Republic New California Republic is initially plagued by crises that limit it's ability to expand, except for expansion into Flag of the Rapids the Rapids, Flag of the Divide the Divide, Flag of Paz Bandits Paz Bandits, and Flag of Valle Bandits Valle Bandits.

Constituents

Through the course of gameplay, other nations may join the NCR. Under default AI behavior, these often include Flag of New Reno New Reno, Flag of Shi Shi, and Flag of Arroyo Arroyo.

Ultimately, the NCR will go to war with the other great power of the Mojave, Caesar's Legion.

Caesar's Legion/The Legion

The Legion is a faction named after the great unifier himself.
