    Enclave Recruitment Poster

    Fallout 2 Enclave Advanced Power Armor.

    Sorry for any inconsistencies.

    Fallout 2 copyright Interplay and Black Isle... I think.

    This is really awkward. The Enclave was a closed, inbred community of the "pure", pre-war Americans. They didn't consider any outsider worthy keeping alive, let alone joining their ranks. Not even the inhabitants of the still intact Vaults were "pure enough" for them.

    Seems pretty much like a poster inviting African
    Americans to join the KKK or Jews to join the SS.

    The armor and some guys of the enclave (the remnant) are in new vegas, so why remove the tag ?

    Because this type of Enclave was in Fallout 2. In New Vegas (and Fallout 3, for that matter), the armor looks different, regardless of them being Enclave.

    As b0b said, the enclave did this to recruit but they also falsely allowed those mutated to join and then did genetic experiments or a "genetic cleansing" by "removing them from the wasteland" basically they slaughtered wastelanders and anyone seen as mutated.

    This Enclave Armor do exist in Fallout 3, specifically New Vegas as a standard armor of the Enclave Remnant and not the same as their Mark II Armor existed in Fallout 3. Vote for the New Vegas tack restored.

    Except this wouldn't make sense even then, as the enclave is dead as an organization. If it were IN in Fallout New Vegas, it would be Fallout 2 era stuff, so given all we have is a "I want you" and fallout 2-era armor, its fallout 2 and not New Vegas unless word from the artist says otherwise.

    Besides, the image itself is from July of 2010, and Vegas wasn't out until October of that year, so its impossible for this to be a reference to it.

    And if this isn't proof enough, the author specifically credits Fallout 2.

    So the evidence is overwhelmingly pointing at Fallout 2 as the setting for this poster.
