crouching and prone are key game mechanics since it both decreases the hit chances on the unit and also boosts accuracy thats why even with mad crit stats the vaultboy stays on the recruit pool and i just grab his endgame weapon early

Another thing about the Vault Boy the companion, if u do plan on finding him make sure you have 2 or 3 empty party member slots while u wander around the location to trigger his encounter. Otherwise he will say your party is to full and refuse to join unless u have a smaller band. Coming back to the location a second time actually soft locks you if you are playing without any patches. So remember to have a small party when u first meet him.

OK. 1.) fallout tactics was rather buggy crashing semi frequently for me. prevented me from doing ironman since it crashes randomly on the map 2.) fallout tactics 'tactics' was trivialized by the voodoo drug which you can take 3 of and get 12 AGI, 12 Luck, 60 damage resistance (armor adding another 40% to get you to 100%) and 72% chance of critical hit. for like 30 minutes. after which you cycle him back to the party and drug up someone else waiting for the withdrawl to wear off. since fallout had those bypass defenses criticals, this means you get yourself a burst mode gun a Browning M2 is ideal but anything works really, and just crit them to death. Fast shot + bonus rate of fire. I used Jax I think, mutating his kamikaze for gifted for the bonus rate of fire perk. 3.) Pretty sure a big existed to get you 2 pip boys, I don't recall them being weak, did you not put armor on him? good stats especially luck. Random encounters can be farmed, voodoo can be found off beastmen encounters, pulse grenades can be found off reaver encounters. considering the last maps of the game are against robots, these pulse grenades are pretty clutch. but yeah fallout tactics drugs allowed for over 100% damage resistance and very high critical chance. trivilizing the tactics. oh and you could over dose turrets, make a video on over dosing the turrets.
