Prince Pyotr Alexeyevich Kropotkin was born in 1842 and breathed his last in 1921. Kropotkin was a Russian noble. He was educated for army and at the age of twenty he became a military officer in Siberia.
Kropotkin’s great interest in science developed from his military training which he received to get a job. This moulded his life in future. He had a scientific mind and devoted his time and energy to the study of books on science.
As a military officer in Siberia Kropotkin got ample opportunity for geographical survey and expedition. Thus his shift from military service to geographical survey and expeditions enriched the subject profoundly. He contributed many articles to different journals.
Peter Kropotkin was a man of different mentality and attitude. His stay in military service could not satisfy his academic and intellectual requirements and desires and after serving several years he relinquished the job, and entered the University of St. Petersburg in 1867. His vast knowledge in geography brought for him the post of secretary of Geographical Society.
Even this vital administrative post could not detain him for long time. He moved to radical political movements. In 1872, Peter Kropotkin joined the International Workingmen’s Association. Later on he was deeply involved in subversive and anarchical activities. This led him to imprisonment in 1874.
He escaped from prison in 1876 and went to England. The England of the second half of eighteenth century was the centre of revolutionary activities, although she never experienced any revolution.
He also travelled to Switzerland and Paris. While in Paris he was again arrested by the French government in 1883. Released from prison in 1886 he went to England and settled there. While in exile, Kropotkin gave lectures and published widely on anarchism and geography. He returned to Russia after the Russian Revolution in 1917 but was disappointed by the Bolshevik state. The rest of his life was spent without political activity.
Peter Kropotkin was an evolutionist anarchist. But his evolutionism was more scientific than that of his predecessors. He wrote several books on anarchism such as ‘The Place of Anarchy in Socialist Evolution (1886), The Conquest of Bread (1888), Its Philosophy and Ideal (1896)’, ‘The State – Its Part in History (1898)’ and ‘Modern Science and Anarchism (1903)’. His deep interest in science, particularly biology and anthropology, opened before him new and enchanting vistas of knowledge and all these inspired him to study biological science with added interest.

Fallout Tactics became nearly unplayable due to the bug where encounters are linked to FPS and CPU speed. Meaning you can't move a step on the world map due to them happening nonstop. Tried a few fixes. Most people recommended enabling v-sync and limiting FPS on the game. But that didn't work. Then one set of advice said to do that and then load the launcher from the folder, but then close it and play it through steam. Some how that janky solution fixed it. We are so back baby.
Also picking randoms recruits has paid off, I really like this one Stumpy, he's got huge health, fights with small guns and melee, really good with traps. Has the one-handed perk (and I assume his nickname implies he's an amputee/partial amputee due to explosives). Also he got promoted when my character did, which apparently can happen to recruits but is uncommon. So I pretend he's my squads second in command. Going to rotate him out when we get to super-mutants but for the moment I think he's neat.
Fallout Tactics is such an interesting and unique Fallout game, at least is not on the East or West coast, and it has some stuff about Canada. But I don't think most of the lore of the game is canon anymore?
It's only loosely canon. Later games have mentioned a BoS around Chicago but no details.
If I was put in charge of a Fallout setting, I'd probably bring the Midwest brotherhood back. I think they'd be interesting as a nation-state like the NCR.
But instead of a liberal bourgeois democracy, something a bit weirder, one part something like the representative democracy the PRC has, where there are local elections that in turn send representatives to national bodies, with other political parties, independents etc, but the BoS would be the CPC and PLA providing regional oversight and military security.
The other part being more archaic like the Holy Roman Emperor with the High Elder overseeing an overlapping patchwork of settlements, tribals villages, raider clans, Deathclaw nests etc each with their own customs and laws that the High Elder has to adjudicate and balance the tensions between different types of Humans, Ghouls, Mutants and Deathclaws.
Not necessarily a morally good faction but one that does ensure stability and equal rights across it's border.
always check the pcgw https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Fallout_Tactics:_Brotherhood_of_Steel one of those patches might help?
Thanks I'll check it out.
