Description:

Merry Christmas ya’ll. Enjoy this blast from the past submod updated to work on the latest patch with brand new GFX for its first half, and some newly added/shuffled around focuses.

Disclaimer that this redux is currently unfinished. I still need to add the rest of the GFX and to reimplement the reconciliation path. I’ve chosen to release it early since I know people have been ravenous for it to finally be updated. As well if you encounter any bugs or spelling mistakes just lmk and ill try to fix them to the best of my ability.

Credits to Pontifex for originally making the mod and for allowing me to update it. also credit to Jeppek1ng who helped test the mod for me.

Original mods description:

Argus Andronikos was once a brilliant strategist, a skilled warrior, and charismatic leader. Now, he is an Exile. After causing a diplomatic incident with the NCR, the Lost Hills Chapter of the Brotherhood of Steel has sent Andronikos, along with his Purple Squadron, on an Expedition up North. They are supposed to, "Investigate reports of a new mutant threat", but Andronikos knows this is just their way of getting him out of the picture. Andronikos does not plan to go out quietly and will not let Oregon be his graveyard. He intends to create his own ‘Crusade in the North’ and prove to the Western Brotherhood that he is worthy of return. To Arms for the Brotherhood!

The Version ‘1.0’ contains the following

  • A focus tree that has two separate paths; Reconciliation or Permanent Exile
  • Unique Advisors, Ideas, and Events
  • A formable tag
  • Create a new capital city or retreat to the safety of the bunkers
  • Custom decisions that let you put the Scribes to work
  • Face The Immortal in a Duel of the Fates
  • Lay claim to the title of High Elder or forge your own path as an Empire encompassing the West

  • Small additional content to the Expedition
  • Add more custom GFX
  • "The President of the United-♥♥♥♥♥♥♥-States-of-America. Who’d you think I was talking about?"

F.A.Q.
Q: What are the requirements for the formable nation?
A: You must have the Imperial Ambition idea, which is granted through the event ‘Project: Empire’

Q: How do you get Andronikos to become Elder?
A: He can only become Elder if you go down the Permanent Exile path. To avoid spoilers it happens through an event in the focus tree.

Q: Help! [Blank] is unbalanced/not working/broken!
A: If you feel something is one of those things, please leave a comment! If it is a matter of something being unbalanced, it will usually be changed next update. If it is something not working right, let me know so I can get it fixed ASAP.
