Talk:Hannibal Hamlin

Armor?
Does anyone have any idea what armor he's wearing? I don't recognize it. I saved my game and tried slipping power armor and ranger combat armor into his pocket to see if I could cause him to doff his default armor, to no avail. I'm just curious! Tour86rocker 08:10, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

(Message from Rubes ~ January 14, 9:23 am) Yes, he is wearing the Recon Armor.

Siding with Slavers
Can you still get the Dart Gun Schematic?

I enslaved one of the slaves in the Temple of the Union, and have waited well more than 3 days...but they are all still hostile and I can't progress in the quest. Will they ever be friendly again?

Slaves?
Is it possible to enslave Hannable after you help him get the memorial? I really want that place for myself and Im a slaver.

Hannibal repeatedly saying 'Bye'
After making a speech at the Lincoln memorial, Hannibal is heard to say 'Bye' repeatedly - the other characters stand and cheer indefinitely. I can't find the bug page for this now, but it stated that you fast travelled away to fix the problem. This didn't work for me (PC), but I managed to recreate the bug twice, waiting 2 hours on one occasion and 7 on another - which led to Hannibal and others walking away, problem solved. Google search is showing this bug listed, but upon reaching those pages it doesn't exist.

Weird..
In my game, none of the slaves change their gear after arriving to the Linconl Memorial.201.230.92.80 03:15, June 9, 2010 (UTC)

He and most others change their gear later, once the head is reattached. --190.234.92.221 10:26, August 7, 2011 (UTC)

Fallout 3 guide is right
Hannibal's response to "So, You used to be a slave?" is "For 23 years I was a slave, ever since I was 14. six years ago, I managed to escape my master. He's been hunting me ever since."

If my math is correct, then he was 37 when he escaped, then 6 years later (present date), he would be around the age of 43, which the Fallout 3 guide states. I don't want to make the change without having confirmation

 * Change made. Thanks for pointing that out.--Gothemasticator 06:09, June 26, 2010 (UTC)

When does he talk about Lincoln?
One of the people in the Temple says Hannibal makes a speech about Lincoln after the 'noon meal,' but I waited until noon and not only was there no speech, but there was no meal. Does he only do it one day a week? If it matters, I'm having that weird bug where the days are un-synced so my days don't change until 1 AM instead of midnight. FinalWish 01:41, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

Schematic?
I am evil and i want to remain this way so i was wondering if i side with the slavers in the Head of State quest can i still get the dart gun schematic or must i help Hannibal? Also, if i help Hannibal does that change my standing with the slavers at Paradise Falls? Will they attack me when i go back to Paradise Falls? Vaultdweller618 08:51, June 24, 2011 (UTC)

Rifle Gauntlet
I have recently encountered this odd bug.(?) I was about to finish the quest Head of State, I met up with Hannibal Hamlin by the nearby Metro and he was wearing his rifle like a gauntlet. It looked as if he was holding onto a handle on the buttstock. I've included a low-quality pic of this here. Webbman 17:50, September 4, 2011 (UTC)
