In this add-on, the [[Brotherhood of Steel Outcasts]] are trying to acquire advanced military tools, and the only way to enter the vault containing these relics is by completing a military [[virtual reality]] simulation. However, none of the Outcasts have the correct computer interface (the [[Pip-Boy 3000]]) to enter the simulation, so it comes down to the [[Lone Wanderer]] to go inside and complete a simulation of the greatest battles of the Fallout universe: the [[Anchorage Reclamation|liberation of Anchorage]], [[Alaska]] from occupying Red [[China|Chinese]] troops. The simulation is set during the Anchorage campaign, which occurred between June [[Timeline#2076|2076]], when the [[T-51b power armor (Fallout 3)|T-51b power armor]] was first introduced, and January [[Timeline#2077|2077]], when Chinese forces were completely driven out of Alaska.

In the [[Anchorage Reclamation simulation|simulation]], the player is stripped of any equipment and weapons (excluding quest items) and forced to utilize the resources supplied throughout the simulation's environment. The People's Liberation Army is everywhere, and the player first has to secure the surrounding mountainside and then fight their way into the Chinese base. The player has to use a lot of their standard combat skills, along with several new tools that are only available in the add-on. These include interactive [[strike team]]s under the player's command as well as unique armor, weapons, and other exotic gadgets. Pieces of enemy intel that the player can collect are also hidden throughout the simulation.
⚫
The add-on can be played at any time after the player exits [[Vault 101]] at the beginning of the game. After completing the simulation, the player is free to unlock the armory via the terminal, and also receives [[Power Armor Training]]. Also, all of the equipment inside is free for the taking without a [[karma]] penalty.

Throughout the simulation, various pieces of intel are also hidden that yield the [[Covert Ops]] perk when all are collected.

The player is also introduced to a new healing system in the [[Anchorage Reclamation simulation|simulation]]: rather than [[Stimpak (Fallout 3)|stimpak]]s, there are [[health dispenser]]s that will completely replenish one's health. [[ammo dispenser]]s can also be found in many places. Corpses cannot be looted, however; all bodies disappear in a blue-static animation a few seconds after death. You are also unable to pick up clutter or open containers; you can only interact with objects that are blinking red and emitting a humming noise. After exiting the simulation, you are allowed into the armory and can grab anything you want.

You are also unable to pick up clutter or open containers; you can only interact with objects that are blinking red and emitting a humming noise. After exiting the simulation, you are allowed into the armory and can grab anything you want.

Opening the armory door spurs a heated discussion between Defender Sibley and Protector McGraw, which culminates in Sibley and most of the other Outcasts starting a mutiny against McGraw and Olin.

Overview

Fallout-3-20081210103247375 (1)

Technicians and a American T-51b unit in T-51b power armor.

In this add-on, the Brotherhood Outcasts are attempting to access the alleged pre-War technology cache in the Virtual Strategic Solutions, Inc. vault. However, the way to enter the vault containing these relics is by completing a military virtual reality simulation. None of the Outcasts have the correct computer interface (like a Pip-Boy 3000) to enter the simulation, so it comes down to the Lone Wanderer to go inside and complete a simulation of the greatest battles of the Sino-American War: the liberation of Anchorage, Alaska from occupying Red Chinese troops. The simulation is set during the Anchorage campaign, which occurred between June 2076, when the T-51b power armor was first introduced, and January 2077, when Chinese forces were completely driven out of Alaska.

Once the add-on is downloaded, the quest objective for Operation: Anchorage will be activated by a radio broadcast stating, "This is Defender Morrill. Any Outcasts listening on this frequency report to sector 7-B, Bailey's Crossroads. This is a high-priority message; backup is needed at our location. Any personnel listening on this frequency, please report at once." A marker will appear on the world map near the Red Racer factory.

In the simulation, the player is stripped of any equipment and weapons (excluding quest items) and forced to utilize the resources supplied throughout the simulation's environment. The People's Liberation Army is everywhere, and the player first has to secure the surrounding mountainside and then fight their way into the Chinese base. The player has to use a lot of their standard combat skills, along with several new tools that are only available in the add-on. These include interactive strike teams under the player's command as well as unique armor, weapons, and other exotic gadgets. Pieces of enemy intel that the player can collect are also hidden throughout the simulation.

OA - Interactive objects example

Interactive objects are blinking red.

The player is also introduced to a new healing system in the simulation: rather than stimpaks, there are health dispensers that will completely replenish one's health. ammo dispensers can also be found in many places. Corpses cannot be looted, however; all bodies disappear in a blue-static animation a few seconds after death. You are also unable to pick up clutter or open containers; you can only interact with objects that are blinking red and emitting a humming noise. After exiting the simulation, you are allowed into the armory and can grab anything you want.

The add-on can be played at any time after the player exits Vault 101 at the beginning of the game. After completing the simulation, the Lone Wanderer is able to unlock the armory via the terminal and take all of its contents. They also receive Power Armor Training.

Notes

  • While there are map markers in the simulation, you will not be able to fast-travel to any of these locations.
  • If you actually speak or know Chinese, you will be disappointed by the language the Chinese speak in the simulation. They speak a non-fluent Chinese and sometimes, so bad that even people with Chinese as mother tongue will not understand some phrases or partial phrases. This might have been intentional on part of the developers.
