This is actually pretty good. Loads of people when they make fan songs meant to be "canon" to the environment always make them too meta.

Even as a diehard NCR player, I love it when the Legion gets cool shit that hypes them up or makes them cooler. Partly because theyre a cool faction, but also because it only makes defeating Lanius and breaking Caesar's horde at Hoover Dam feel even more legendary than they already do.
The legion are just a bunch of freaks playing colloseum, the barely ignited torch of a bygone era. Mr house carved a haven for the many. Caesar's reign is limited, house's will is eternal.
This is fantastic and goes hard as all hell, i'm completely gonna steal it and use it as a marching song for a very roman-inspired faction in the ttrpg campaign i'm running.
I can imagine this being heard as the Courier crosses the dam, only for the song to falter or break depending on if the Courier convince Lanius to retreat or kill him.
"How long was the second battle of hoover dam" "Eleven minutes" "And what did lanius do to the ncr in those eleven minutes?" "Horrible, terrible things... I don't want to talk about it. I still wake up, every night, screaming Screaming!"
I checked you can march on this song. The pure harmony vocal is pretty good for letting you rest in a natural rithem before taking it back into a hard march of left, left.. left right left.
How about Joshua Graham, AKA Burned Man ? :D Would be in the same thematic range as Lanius, but I assume with more of a focus on honor, duty. faith and redemption in spite of failure. EDIT: Sorry I didn't know you already made one, my bad ^^ !
Thank you. I will be watching the other Fallout ones youve done. Im glad someone is tackling doing music for the world of Fallout that could reasonably fit post Great War.
@@A_Moustached_Sock thanks for your support! I noticed others who had tried incorporated stuff like electric guitars etc which wouldn’t fit in a post world fallout world. I’m glad it does the job of sounding feasible!
@scapegoat1440 I disagree on electric guitar but Id use it very sparingly (like in Reno or Vegas) and have it be for rogue performers. Not at all for epics like this representing nations. In that regard you hit the nail on the head. Should be something that echoes a past age where propaganda was at a height. Ill be sharing this around and definitely will be having it play during fallout tabletop rpgs.
Why do i hear this song in my head when gettin into the lagates camp fighting the Legion soldiers like some pre boss fight music telling me im gonna get fucked up
Oooh. That could be interesting! That would be more of a secret campfire song I think, the soldiers wouldnt want to be caught singing about the Burned Man. Bad things happen to those who do...
@@scapegoat1440 Well it's logical, but seems he's Joshua we're talking about I was thinking something more closer to a religious song, like they see him the second advent of Jesus or something like that.
@@scapegoat1440that would be great, like the veterans who survived the 1st battle of hoover dam and still remember the deeds of the Malpais Legate, the one who led trough respect instead of fear
@@scapegoat1440That's... Is amazing 😍 I can't wait to ear them 🤩 I can't even stop to listen this song 😂 P. S. Frank Horrigan! Don't you think he deserve a song? :3
Love this! Don't do many legion playthroughs but this will be great for my next one! Maybe another song you could do would be a kinda history of the legion from the legionaries perspective or something, idk just a thought!
So am I to understand the guy in the picture is the "bull" that is referred to in all the songs? And if so, what purpose do the horns have other than appearance?.
What could be cool is a song recounting the origins of the legion. Could have it start very calm and slow. Detailing how the legion grew tribe by tribe. Then as they smash greater and great foes it would get faster and grander music wise. And the final bit would be a cry out to take Rome (vegas). Or could be cool to due a song about some of the legions crushed enemies like the hang dogs or twin mothers
Its good to be in this mans army for I know that I will win no matter the enemy as long as the Iron Reaver of the legion LANIUS marches into the battle with us
I want to see a Song for a legion courier With this kind of energy. Personally, I think they're better than lanius Because you can defeat him, even if that is just Because it's a game and that's kind of the point, But mostly because the Courier would be a bit of a legend to The legion, He walked to the savage divide Basically, post-apocalyptic hell And potentially Reigned nuclear hell fire on the NCR, He conquered the mountains of madness And became king over the mountain Aka Went to big MT And Fought his way through the Lobotomites And eventually became the guy in charge there, He marched through the city of the dead aka The Sierra Madre Where he Cleaved through the spirits of the dead and Demons Who inhabited the Sierra Madre And marched through it's choking red mists. Maybe it's just my head cannon, but in my mind, a legion courier Would be heralded on a similar level to Lanius and Caesar As some kind of Demi God, Personally, I believe the courier inherits the legion after Caesar dies If you get the legion ending On account of having the gold coin minted in his image Which realistically would say a lot about the career, potentially being a successor because of how that worked in ancient Rome and how it works amongst the legion, Previously, the only person allowed to show up on the coins Aside from Caesar himself was Joshua Graham, and that was just a little bit As a figure that stood beside Caesar, They have The legion's gold coins minted in their image Pretty much Says here's our new emperor. They survive a bullet to the head And crawl out of their very grave to hunt the man who shot them and dragged them to hell. They conquered big MT, Practically the mountains of madness. The only person ever to survive let alone thrive in the sierra and walk away alive. Potentially killed Joshua Graham in Zion valley, Conquered the white Legs practically on their own. If you choose the legion ending, then you are Responsible for their victory at Hoover dam. Maybe it's just how I choose to play my character in new Vegas, but I go for a legion melee build, Because of the perks and enhancements I have on my character They can cleave through death Claws like it's nothing and I regularly go around attacking NCR troopers whenever they Reappear, I turn NCR Rangers into thin red mist And have used my melee Build to practically eviscerate everything in front of me. Please, oh please give me a song for a legion courier, This one is chilling, but I want something that makes The profligates wish they wore there brown pants today.
True to Caesar! This is incredible, great work. I created Imperium Radio, a popular Legion radio mod. Please let me know if you'd be interested in working together!
Been siding with House for like every play through I've made besides the ones that I did when was a kid and sided with the NCR. Made a first play through as the Bull and can say that despite Caesar's yapping if you refuse to satisfy his needs and wills and his "neo-luddism" mongol empire vibe, Legion could've been a cool faction. I wish they gather the old lads from Obsidian to actually work for the NV2 or something where they'd basically repeat the same scenario of original NV, but with time story moved further and Vegas and Mojave being more developed. Techno legion on one side, Republic on the other, maybe resurrect Benny. Basically you get the same story line and won't have to yap what was cannon and what's not.
His a general a commander though lanuis isn't afraid to get in to fight his job as the literal high command of the legion second to Casesr is to direct troops, and he can only do this from the back. You can't really send command protocalls while being shot and bombarded by NCR mortars. It's less to do with him being afraid and more to do with him making sure he actualy gets his men to victory. We got to remember lanuis before becoming legate was Caesers top fielded centurion who conquered 14 extra tribes in 7 years and absolulty wipped the Sun dogs and took Denver. And he did this while leading in the front and this was all thanks to having a wider field of vision and being capable of sending troops and lead in any direction. But at Hoover Dam, the Dam is just 1 thin road and the only direction is straight ahead, it makes communicating with untis from the front difficult as the only logistics line up is behind. Meaning your more likley to get bogged down when communicating orders and the people sending those orders are more likely to block the charging leganaires while getting shot from behind. Which can cause a pilling of bodies which block out more soldiers, causing them to trip and sowing confusion in the ranks, not to mention many Legion officers can take the legioners sending info and commands who are running away from the battle as deserting cowards and execute them It's litraly how Graham lost the first battle of Hoover Dam as all his centurions were leading from the front and when they got picked off it caused confusion in the ranks and causing many legioners to break away and leave the battle believing the entirety of the leader ship chain and at worst Graham himself to have died.

Monster of the east,
A power kept in full,
Terror of the Legion,
And the right hand of the bull!
Ruthless gaze of iron,
Heartless blade of steel,
Veni, Vidi, Vici,
The man who never kneels
Refrain:
In the crucible of chaos,
His glory perseveres,
When the Reaper takes a breake,
Then Lanius appears!
He's slaughtered many thousands,
Mars cant keep the scope,
The Legion's wrath incarnate,
Waging never ending war.
Relentless storm of blood and fire,
The Legate carves a way,
In the path of his destruction,
Lanius never strays.
Beware him on the battelfield,
Beware his iron fist,
Two heads of who oppose him,
Turn to gruesome, bloody mist,
For we render unto Caesar's will,
His enemies we slay
But for the foes of Lanius,
We can only pray.

What do you say about a song for the NCR special forces like the rangers and the power armored batalion
Hello, maybe a sound about Vulpes and the Frumentarii ?
Maybe a song about the strength of the simple legionary. How fights to the bitter end.
I think a song where the legion sings praise of Mars?

Some of the best work on RUclips right now! You should definitely do one about Vulpes!!
