Fallout: New Vegas (PC) - Follows-Chalk Talks About What Joshua Graham Was Like as Malpais Legate

From the Honest Hearts DLC. Follows-Chalk, a Dead Horse scout (and your companion), talks about what Joshua Graham was like during his Legion days. Joshua, as Caesar's Legate, had encountered the Dead Horses many years ago before the First Battle of Hoover Dam. Interestingly, instead of enslaving or killing them, the Legate chose to train the Dead Horses.

[@amanofnoreputation2164]

Honest Hearts gives insight into the Legion and it's formation; the White Legs are literally trying to get themselves assimilated, presenting a vision of what things must have been like in the wake of Caesar's expansion across Arizona.

[@srbrant5391]

One of the things I love about New Vegas is how they make familiar places sound like places of legend. Just listen to the way the Legion uses names like Vegas, Colorado, Utah, Denver and California.

Joshua is my favourite new vegas character

[@nihilism6226]

Highly unrealistic. If Legion burned to death every commander after every military failure, nobody would want to do the job. You need to keep your army happy, otherwise they turn on you.
What kind of a worthless coward can't deal with a failure anyway. What did they expect, clean victories after each conflict? Historically romans themselves lost tons of battles because their soldiers were pretty average and battlefield tactics fairly rigid, but they were super rich so they just kept throwing people at the problem until it god solved.

[@lewisgommersall2754]

Nihilism have you even played new Vegas?? It’s one of the most well written RPGs out there, this was the legions first loss, and even then it’s a huge moment of controversy for the legion, some even disagree with Cesar’s decision but they won’t openly talk about it because most are killed for even saying joshua’s name.

I would like to see Joshua Graham's Character Development throughout the game, it would be amazing.

[@mute9653]

That may have been the plan, judging by the game files from Fallout Van Buren, back when he was called the Hanged Man.

[@MisterJohnDoe]

Maybe like a prequel comic like the Great Khans had or playing as someone who was some sort of Legion spy

[@srbrant5391]

I think the reason a lot of tribals in _Fallout_ resemble Native Americans is because their pre-colonial ways were the closest to their post-war way of life and figured that appropriating them would give them a greater chance for survival.

[@rodrikofharlaw6848]

Tribals are tribals anywhere in the world. It's really not imitating native americans as much as general human tribalism.

[@srbrant5391]

@@rodrikofharlaw6848 True, but the aesthetic is certainly Native American inspired.

[@kuroshthegreat8073]

It always seemed to me like many of tribes in fallout were just groups of native Americans who survived the war and went from being marginalized groups in the old world to regaining their pre-colonial freedom in the post war world.

[@ravenwhiteduck6460]

I honestly don't see it, their tribes of their own making, nothing more

[@darryljones3009]

They *are* actually Native Americans - Joshua Graham mentions that their ancestors arrived from a place east of the Grand Canyon called "Res". Res is a short name for reservation and the Navajo Nation is directly east of the GC.

[@maximusgennaro5342]

how the hell does he know that California was the sunset state

[@angel420garcia]

It isn’t

[@tacticability521]

Graham could have told him, it could be Tribal folklore, considering the NCR's size and the fact that the sun visibly sets in the West over it, or some of both.

[@mattickista]

Well, the sun does rise from the east. It probably wasn't hard for them to figure it out

[@LamborghiniDiabloSVPursuit]

The Dead Horses weren't completely isolated or xenophobic, so outsiders managed to interact with them. Its why Follows-Chalk wanted to leave Zion in the first place: he heard how different the world was outside of the canyon from a traveling country singer.

[@xxxCrackerJack501xxx]

The sun sets in the west, California is in the west, seems like an astute nickname

[@Deadman1000]

Quite honestly when I first played this I had a feeling the native Americans would survive nuclear fallout, they are smarter and preserve their land.

[@apassionatenerd.3564]

@Izak because the people had more advanced technology. That doesn't change that natives knew how to live off the land and the colonials didn't.

[@apassionatenerd.3564]

Technically the tribals aren't just native Americans, they're survivors from all over the west coast and middle America who formed tribes to survive together after the bombs fell, so the tribals in New Vegas are more of a several cultures melting together rather than just being native tribes.
