The Tommies at the Imperial War Museum in Fallout London Part 19: Also Exploring the Bank of England

[@thomasdoconnor]

I was just at the Imperial War Museum a few months ago! They really do have those two huge cannons out front it was a blast to visit. 🥁

[@anarchyantz1564]

Less "commuters" around though...

[@tobias5827]

been a few years, but I got to visit the Museum back in 2019. Was an absolute blast!

[@rowan7149]

I’m guessing the holotapes in the IWM are a reference to the popular British TV show “Dad’s Army” which was a comedy show about the Home Guard and their various antics they got into each week which ran from the early 60s all the way to the late 70s.

[@ZedMazaus480]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Oxhorn you just locked yourself out from getting my favorite companion in the game!! The computers with error messages only unlock when you except help her get out. You have to complete a series of tasks to get her out. She's acentually the fallout equivellent to Lora Croft aka Tomb Raider...except with a fallout comedical personality twist. Well worth having in my opinion. Please go back for her.

[@waterbottle4782]

Yes. Yes you can have settlements in Fallout London. And much like Fallout IV the easist way to make money is obtaining clean water to sell.

[@teacupalice]

Yeah we use the c word a lot in the uk too, it’s not as frowned upon as in America

[@dingo137]

That depends on your social circle. It's still pretty frowned upon in general - it's the one word that still gets bleeped on TV even when "fuck" is allowed.

[@IstvanK_PC]

The terminal at the Bank of England was below the intercom itself, the keypad should've been able to interact with, or you could've looted a keycard if I can recall correctly.

[@Aye-McHunt]

Ox did pick up the key card. Unfortunately, because he used the idiot response, he locked himself out of the option to use it.

[@kukipett]

Well it's a shame that he missed Kiera just because of that stupid perk dialogue for a low int. Those dialogues are quite evil sometimes, you may think they give you some advantages but it often just locks you out of interesting things. And Ox didn't know there was settlements, there are 6 if i remember correctly, there is two just close to the Imperial War Museum, 5 outside and one in Thameshaven if you finish their quests.

[@kellyfrench]

I expected him to talk more with the Colonel to report the lady in the bank vault.

[@kukipett]

@@kellyfrench I don't think you can, once you got your mask, there is no more interaction.

[@TheREALSimagination]

"Asquith" sounds like an insult. Ima guess we take over as General in the questline. Speaking of, his mother was a Russian. Interesting. After he exclaimed "you can have SETTLEMENTS?" I just about tore my hair out, as I've been shouting at him to get the one on London Bridge since day and episode 1. He was SO CLOSE once, too, but then he went on the WRONG BRIDGE. I don't think he reads the comments XD And no, Whittaker is just broken, even with a settlement. I haven't managed to send her to one, either.

[@jakeebeling9158]

Missed out on the best companion by not opening the bank vault. Kiera is superb and her companion mission is decent. The terminal she mentions is the keypad that you see when interacting with the intercom. Pretty sure the keycard you picked up is what activates it.

[@BlastMagicianYGO]

Best is a strong word. She is one of the companions of all time though.

[@Aye-McHunt]

By responding with the idiot option, I think Ox locked himself out of using the key card.

[@Zinexeon]

During WW2, there was an English soldier who used a longbow and broadsword. Not only did he get multipole confirmed kills, he also survived the war. His name was "Mad" Jack Churchill. So that's why there is a longbow in the museum.

For those of us, that phone is only connection to Fallout World. I thank you from the bottom of my heart! I used to play exactly as you produce in these videos. Welldone! Sir.

[@_datapoint]

I’ve never been to the imperial war museum but all of the exhibits on the first floor, with the exception of the American tank (which is purely a made up, Fallout fiction) are real, World War II, military equipment as well as the Flakpanzer on the second floor. Even “Vergeltungswaffe-2” was real. They don’t exactly look like the real thing because I imagine the fallout London developers were working with the only assets they had.

Best bit: Ox breaks after he nearly gets blown up and then asks Archie to pick the lock. Only to find it's empty EXCEPT for a BOBBY PIN!😂 Also, I seriously hope,once you finish the game,you start doing Lore videos, I want to hear your soothing voice as you say "In the borough of Camden..."

[@jamesarbon3551]

[@jacobpinkham5693]

Preston: Another settlement needs your help Moves to London Nux: we need you to clear out some locations

[@MrEsphoenix]

29:02 Not to offend anyone, but the American revolution isn't really a significant moment for Britain, any more than other countries gaining independence. America records it as a great victory, which is understandable, as it's a very significant part of their history, but from the viewpoint of the British Empire, they were more concerned with other matters such as the Caribbean and spice trade, leaving reservists to deal with protecting the colonies. Militarily America wasn't a threat, but they had spent a lot of money and supplies claiming land and protecting the colonists in America from the French and Spanish, and it was becoming more of a drain to continue protecting them and trying to get compensation, especially when they were actively working against Britain, and France was using them to try and draw British troops from elsewhere, not to mention the British public was pretty split too, with many sympathising with America's cause. So instead of sacrificing more valuable territory to clamp down on a colony that at the time wasn't as valuable, Britain allowed America to sue for peace and cut their losses. There's no lasting bitterness, and I've never met a Brit with negative feelings towards America or other countries celebrating Independence Day. In reality, the people who cared most about the colonies were the politicians and businessmen who were making a lot of money from them, whereas the general British public wasn't really seeing any direct benefit other than pride, which was waning with the growing discontent with the "ruling class". We recognise it's long term historical significance, but in the grand scheme of things it was just an inevitable bump in the empires' path which would have happened eventually, and we ended up close allies, meaning we still benefitted from it in the long term. If anything, it's more that Americans expect us to care more than we do and be mad about it or something. I've even had online friends in America apologise to be for talking about their plans for Independence Day as if I would be offended by it lol.

[@Anwelei]

I’ve read as a comment (don’t remember which KZbinr it was, or it might have been Reddit) that if your strength is above 10, sometimes those inaccessible doors can be forced open. No idea if that is true, but I hope it is! Hope one of the streamers I watch tries it at some point soon.

[@PCGamingGoodies]

Only if there is an option to force it open. But most inaccessible doors have no such option.

[@_datapoint]

I remember several instances when I tried to open an inaccessible door I got a notification saying I needed a strength above seven to open. AND usually those doors were partially open and I could see inside. They were not completely closed.

[@The_Endless_Now]

[@tonyarmiger9950]

It's interesting that you should comment that there was no mention of the Revolutionary War. I don't know if it's covered in the modern curriculum, but it was never touched on when I was at school in England in the 80s. I always assumed that it was because because the US and UK have been close allies for so long.

[@Aye-McHunt]

It's because we lost. If you notice, British history books only cover wars we won. Any we lost don't get much of a mention.

[@MrEsphoenix]

It's covered with other countries gaining independence. The simple fact is that it's not a significant moment in Britain's history. At the time, we had bigger issues and more valuable territory to focus on, and public sentiment was pretty split with support for their cause anyway. America wasn't militarily a threat, and was costing us more money to protect than we were gaining. It was being held with reservists, and holding it would have required pulling forces from places like the Caribbean, which was why France was so supportive as they wanted us to pull forces from territory they wanted. In the end, it was just another country that we gave up claim over, who ended up being a close ally anyway, and didn't really have much effect on the Empire.

[@naomy1701]

"a mousetrap cherry?" ... "its a weapon!" ... "it gotta be a trown explosive!" dont think its more likely to be a mine, considering its based on a MOUSETRAP? i mean i dont know how the rest of the world uses their mousetraps ofc, maybe they do make for decent throwing ammo, never tryed that tbh XD

[@micheal7932]

So, Fallout London has six settlements but none of them are tied to the main story. You have to find them and either clear them out or complete related quest.

[@jenniferreinhart7670]

Thank you for continuing to do this series! The mod is so in depth I know I’m going to be replaying these when I get to the areas !

[@davethompson3326]

"TOG" (The Old Gang) referred to a group of people who had been early proponents of the tank, who were pushing for a super heavy vehicle able to cross a battlefield like those in WW1. It was eventually cancelled as the proposed vehicles would have been huge, heavy and slow by WW2 standards.

[@MrEsphoenix]

Silly really. If they had kept going then by the time WW2 came around we would have already had tanks in Germany, and England. Passing through France somewhere around their mid-point. Parking would have been an issue though.

[@IssieAndLife]

RE 29:00, we honestly don’t really talk about the Revolutionary War much in the UK. I can’t remember learning about it in High School History, either. So this tracks.

[@Aye-McHunt]

British history is usually only about times we won. Because we lost the revolution we've, pretty much, forgotten about it.

[@dingo137]

​@@Aye-McHuntWe lost the Battle of Hastings too, but everyone knows about 1066.

[@MrEsphoenix]

It wasn't really a significant point in our history. It's covered in the curriculum next to other countries gaining independence, but both at the time, and now, it just wasn't that important to Britain as we had bigger concerns.

[@Gazereths1234]

Lol i watch a Wrestling KZbinr who has a strong Irish accent, YT kept demonitising him for saying two count or three count. Even auto subtitles thought he was saying something different.

[@RandomGreymane]

I love this playthrough! They dedicated so much to this mod even if it’s not in any way canon.

[@jakespacepiratee3740]

The Imperial War Museum was very heavy-handed. They had primarily Naz! Military equipment, one American and one British. And obviously these things matter, but i don’t buy that the Fallout UK would care about the Holocaust when they caused a few hundred Holocausts for the Countries they Colonized, and the Fallout World has every Country more Imperialist. So I very seriously doubt all they would be talking about in this more dystopian version of the UK is “Woe, the Jews.”

[@Poisso3]

Those holotapes I think are a Dad's Army reference.

[@TankGuyThe3]

The guy who voices Corporal Nux (and it sounds like Private Stag is too) actually has a KZbin channel called Squire. Definitely worth checking out.

[@anidiot2284]

Oxhorn, it’s a BRITISH museum. Did you honestly expect it to have anything that was actually British. Ok jokes aside, one of the characters is voiced by the KZbinr known as “Squire” he’s known for making historical skits with some even being recorded in real tanks including Tiger 131 which is the last Tiger 1 tank from WWII that is still functioning. I recommend watching his channel for some good Laughs and some historical education. He likely gave the information for most of the historical note around the museum. Also the British museum have the most functional armored vehicles from WWII, with many from the UK, Italy, Germany, America, Japan, and even Russia. I also will never unsee the correlation between the BOS Squires and the Hitler Youth.
