Caravan is fairly easy to understand when you know how. To elaborate on what Warlockracy said, it's like blackjack except you're both making 3 sets instead of 1 and instead of seeing who gets the highest when closest to 21, the objective is purely to get a number between the range of 21-26. Also, you can put your cards in your opponent's set instead of your own in order to make them bust. What's different is the royal cards because they have a function instead of just acting as a substitute for 10 >Jack takes a card off the field, good for when you're trying to fuck up your opponent's combo or remove a card he inserted in your sets >Queen is garbage, never use them. What Queen does is flip the value of the card you attach it to and this NEVER is worth talking up a deck slot. >King doubles the value of the card you attach it to So I just load my deck with 6s, 8s, 9s, 10s, Kings, and Jacks. Apply a King to a 10 and then throw down a 6 and it's an automatic 26. Apply a King to a 6 and throw down a 10 and it's an automatic 22. Either way it's a winning hand. The 8s and 9s are there in case I'm not drawing any Kings. Jacks are there to fuck up my opponent or if he tries to fuck up me. There, you know how to play Caravan now and you will beat any opponents that aren't in the Caravan Tournament mod.

You touch on two of the most subtle points of writing in the game in this video, both of which got a little botched by the condensed development timeline. There are five key details about Caesar’s society that are meant to shock and horrify the player into immediately identifying the Legion as evil: The crucifixions, the slavery, the total subservience of women, the fact that they booby trap dead bodies (some of this content was patched out because it was buggy, it was more prominent on release), and the way they massacre tribes and mould their children into Legionnaires. The arc of the game’s story is encountering this conflict between the “good” NCR and “evil” Legion, and gradually peeling back the layers, finding out that neither faction is what it seems. This is expertly done by revealing the noble NCR are, in fact, similar to Caesar’s Legion in many ways, guilty of similar crimes. Where women have no rights in Caesar’s Legion, it’s implied that the NCR tolerates homophobia in the Mojave (Major Knight’s dialogue - much of this thread seems to have been cut from the final game). Where Caesar crucifies, the NCR beheads (3 Card Bounty) and massacres (Goodsprings, NCRCF in I Fought The Law) to instill terror. While the Legion traps bodies with explosives, the NCR blew up ALL OF BOULDER CITY as a trap for the legion. And then you have Bitter Root. Bitter Root isn’t just an interesting character - he’s the foil to Lucius, the head of Caesar’s Praetorian guard. If you talk to Lucius about his past, he tells you when he was a boy, his tribe was conquered, the women were all enslaved, the men were mostly killed, and boys and young men like him were inducted as legionnaires. Over time, he earned glory in combat, until he became a trusted confidant of Caesar himself. He feels nothing but grateful for the murder of his tribe, says it made him strong and set him free from the animalistic ways of his people. Lucius is a shocking character - and Bitter Root’s story is nearly identical, only Bitter Root is NCR. And then there’s the Powder Gangers! Tragically neglected due to time constraints. The Powder gangers are meant to be the foil to Caesar’s practice of slavery. While Caesar’s Legion are literal slavers, the NCR uses penal gang labor to rebuild the railroads. While folks like Joe Cobb and Eddie and Dawes, as well as the Primm thugs, are meant to show you that NCRCF was home to some rough characters, all the other Powder Gangers are much more sympathetic - petty drug dealers and smugglers (Hannigan), sheriffs who took the law into their own hands (Meyers), and dudes who were in the wrong place at the wrong time (Carter). The Nipton crowd is portrayed as corrupt but less than evil (excepting the mayor), and the folks trying to rob the Vikki and Vance are just desperate draft dodgers who know the punishment for desertion. If you ask these guys why they still run with the Powder Gangers, they’ll tell you the NCR isn’t going to welcome them back and it’s safer for them inside NCRCF than it is outside it. These are the NCR’s equivalent of slaves, and for their Attica moment, they are met with a harsher punishment than Attica - a death sentence, conferred with only one exception (Meyers). Vault 19 is a referendum on this NCR practice of penal labor, with a fun Vault-Tec twist of a paranoia inducing layout. Samuel Cooke, you learn, isn’t a criminal at all - he’s a revolutionary who views the NCR as an imperialist war machine (which, yes, it is). In a way, he’s lookingto remake himself as an NCR Spartacus, forming a unified resistance to tyranny through an alliance with the Great Khans. The player can choose to side with him, acknowledging the righteousness of his cause, or work with Lem to negotiate a surrender, deciding whether or not they agree NCR’s vision of crime and punishment, of order and authority. Or, of course, you can always dispense your own NCR justice - Bitter Springs style. It’s all so good! But unfortunately it’s easy to miss because, well, the Powder Gangers kind of suck and are split into two factions (“Powder Gangers” and Vault 19), both of which has barely any content at all. And Bitter Root - there’s just no reason to talk to him other than curiosity. Great little writing subtleties, easily missed. The story of New Vegas is just so good - you peel back the layers to learn the conflict between good and evil isn’t as clean as you think at first (although the Legion is still MUCH worse than the NCR), all while marching towards the symbol of a beyond-good-and-evil Randian ubermensch in Mr. House, who exercises many of the same tools of control himself. The details of how the NCR is in some ways like the Legion are fed to you as a drip, almost perfectly paced. If only it had been a little more fleshed out!

[@skylarm2068]

Underrated comment.

[@globalelite3042]

To me this comment serves as an important critical thinking test about the spin and narratives people can place on certain actions. I dont know if i would place tolerating homophobia on the same level as total subjugation of women. Wartime tactics are debate able so ill leave that alone. Taking prisoners at their word of why they are there (while ignoring that criminals often downplay and justify their crimes) is not smart. Cooke is by definition a terrorist. Blowing up supply convoys to achieve political goals is not cool or based and cookes alliance with the khans (who represent the endgame of imperialism , forcing their will upon others by forcefully taking from traders and caravans) speaks to the integrity of his morals

It's from the official new Vegas comics!

[@dreadnaughtvcn6932]

A Warlocracy New Vegas video? Been eager for this since your first video covering any of the fallout games.

[@fiode831]

Actually the only channel I eagerly anticipate videos from, since trying to cut down on social media. This isn't "content", feels more like a hangout. Thanks Warlock, this is a niche (and a space in my heart) you filled perfectly.

chance's knife? moar like... *Stupid's Knife*

[@commandertorres]

Fallout New Vegas is like meeting a girl you are trying to romance. You think you know how her very well but then she tells you something you’ve never knew about her, interesting details that makes her more attractive. Love this video and how I learn new quest and things I could do in the game.

[@willlauzon3744]

ALWAYS take the Wild Wasteland Trait. Also this is one of my all time fsvourite games. I loved Dead Money DLC a little too much and i also loved Old World Blues. Just chefs kiss.

[@Thatonepersonyouheard]

The Powder Gangers was one of my favorite factions. They have a lot of content if you explore the whole map. If New Vegas gets remastered I hope they're turned into a real faction

[@disgorgeofconsciousness2250]

This is incredible already, loving the content and can't wait to see where this series goes

[@Erhogz]

12:50 Jocker removes any OTHER cards similiar to the attached one . For example you are attach it to your or opponent's 7. Every other 7 will be removed from the table.

[@russianbear0027]

The playing card transitions between sections are a nice touch

[@djwoody1649]

I think this is your best yet. The production and pacing of your explanations, your use of quotes and aphorisms and Mr New Vegas's interjections were brilliant. Bloody well done, mate!

I've been listening to this on a sunny day while darning a set of socks and it has absolutely made my day. Fantastic video.

[@jakejutras5420]

R.I.P Mathew Perry, your performance was quite good in this game.

[@TheHalogen131]

"That's what happens when you leave your nerds unbullied" what a quote

[@MysteryEzekude]

I've said it once and I'll said it again: In my experience, regardless whether, as a nerd, you get bullied or not, you're bound to spiral out of control upon reaching adulthood either way. The difference is that the bullied, like me, come to embrace despair while the unbullied, like maybe Todd, gets their hopes too high up. So it's practically a lose-lose situation.

[@ThatDemonOverThere]

If you ever get the chance to try sasparilla, you should. Its like rootbeer but not. Has a slight citrus flavor too

[@a_blue_whale9240]

Most realistic part of the play through was the fact that he never ended the game

[@Mint-Lynx]

Anyone else only just now learn that Mr. Vegas was an AI? Neat to learn a new thing about this game so long after playing it!

[@shenanigans2877]

Except he's not artificial. How did you get that idea

[@bigspoon4949]

Glad to see one of my fav youtubers is back and kicking! Hope ur doing well dude and staying safe. thanks as always for the quality content

[@HardClumping]

just fantastic. i always learn a ton more about new vegas every time i play it or watch a (good) video on it. i can't wait for more

[@itsuadman]

I realize this is an old video now but if you make a second part then the R in sarsparilla is silent pronounced more like sassparilla, but ill admit hearing you put the emphasis on the R made me laugh a few times. Keep up the great work these videos are fantastic!

[@MarioPawner]

This is the first time I've gotten to see one of your videos about a game I've played to death and get to see each part not as an introduction to something new but a reminder of something fondly cherished. It's an interesting experience.

[@JagmanJohn]

I have a watch party for every new upload and man they just keep getting better!! Fantastic work, dude!!

[@beepmoo8771]

Wonderful video. It's very interesting how everyone always seems to play this game differently, whether it be slight differences or just skipping entire main quests for the hell of it. Good video.

[@xidalap]

It seems I tend to rewatch some of your videos right before new release. Thank you for your hard work, you beautiful person

[@yourguysheppy]

I've never read Blood Meridian (maybe I should) but every quote from it is the hardest thing I've ever heard. This series is definitely a great way to do the 100-hour-game video essay format. A mixture of the game's plot, your character build and choices, and the occasional tangent about the hubris of mankind and our attempts to control the world make for a unique watch.

[@rockinunderscore52]

RIP Cormac McCarthy. love the quotes and intermingling the themes with New Vegas. So cool

[@willlauzon3744]

Ive never EVER had the NCR radio work for me. It always tells me im out of range.

[@requiemagent3014]

Every single time I watch a lengthy video essay on the best game ever made I hope to learn something new or see something I have never done in game. Didnt happened. I swear I played this game way to much. With and without the Sawyer mod.

[@elel9640]

"This is what happens when you leave your nerds un-bullied" 😂😂

[@Edolin89]

I played this game for hundreds of hours back in the day. I love your cinematic work and editing on this. Keep it up! I stumbled upon your channel and binged all of it because Fallout 2 was my all time favourite game growing up. Keep up the great work, Im looking forward to this series!!

[@sevenproxies4255]

It's hard to remain neutral with the powder gangers while also keeping the folk of Goodsprings alive. But not impossible 😏 And you can attack the powder gangers during the fight. But you need to do sneak attacks and probably use some save scumming.

[@2plainghoul]

The game that started it all for me. I will never stop playing nor will i stop loving Fallout New Vages.

[@brodericki4281]

I pray to the Uber Chad Alexander Lukashenko that the next part comes out soon. Please grace me with your favour big boy

[@sammosaurusrex]

In Vanilla New Vegas, I found that maybe 2 hours of sleep/day was sufficient to avoid sleep deprivation. If you consider that a regular sleep cycle, I’m worried for your health

[@jiaan100]

That is technically regular

[@afakeplaguedoctor8294]

Never thought I see an actual guide on caravan, thanks.

[@Swedishmafia101MemeCorporation]

The NPC's descending into the ground is a bug with the "WAR Mix" mod which I see you have installed. The latest version of the mod seems to have fixed it though.

[@Warlockracy]

I refuse to fix this

[@slimeprivilege]

man it feels like ive been waiting on this vid from you for a while. i love what you did with the inclusion of the mr new vegas script and caravan cards. i was elated to notice that the vid was nearing its end and that you barely scratched the surface of the game, insuring at least a new vegas part 2 video from you. phenomenal work as always, thank you so much for all you do!

[@mongolhorde5827]

i am pooping while watching this BTW

[@anotherranger2924]

Champion 💪

[@PortoWulf]

I really appreciate the editing on this one. It's beautifully done. Thank you.

[@niklasw.1297]

I don't know how well the FNV DLCs would work with your video format but are you interested in covering them as well? Old World Blues would be a fun watch

[@elijahronda1720]

I’ve been blessed today with a warlockracy video thank you dude

[@weecefew]

New Vegas is my favorite game so I am beyond excited to get to see 8+ hours of content from you devoted to it. You gonna do all of the DLC?

[@jansenart0]

In Caravan, Queens will reverse the ascending or descending direction of cards in a caravan, so if you play it on a 2 covering a 3, you can then put a 3-10 on the 2, when before the Queen you could only play an Ace. Jokers will remove all cards of the same suit from the board, except the one it's played on. If your opponent has all spades and you have one, play a joker on yours and he loses everything. It can be a nuke. A fun way to win is to force your opponent to have a full caravan, if you have the other two already, because a hand doesn't end until all 3 columns have 1 caravan ready to go (and un-tied). So if you got 21, 10 and 25 and your opponent has 2, 16 and 8, you can put a king on one of his 8s in the middle, all 3 columns become ready, and you win 2-1. There's a lot of strategy to Caravan, and the old guy in Primm is a nasty fighter. There are also certain metas that absolutely break the game, like just 7s, 8s and kings when building your deck.

[@barrelwimp2698]

The queens and jokers explanation followed by immediately winning was relatable, and very funny to me

[@SolarFlareAmerica]

I always took Malcolm's warning about people killing you on suspicion of having star bottle caps literally, and i always killed him for his. In retrospect, I was probably a chaotic evil player. I regret these action and similar actions, but I wanted to collect every unique thing I could. I wonder if my adhd played a role in this mindset. It later drove me nuts trying to get that m1 garand in the monorail station. I was almost convinced the quest was bugged, or it didn't exist.

[@OmegaMercenary]

now give me part 2? Thank you (:

[@Remanada1]

Oh god the ending reminded me of the modder Giskard, who never forgave the green arrows in Oblivion and how they trained people. Decades later he made a mod for skyrim where the quest giver tells you to ignore the white arrow, and if you don't all of the mod's features lock

[@trashrabbit69]

The quality of this video floored me. As in, I fell through the floor into the great Toddlands.
