Fallout Friday January 23rd
By Georgie
Hello to everyone out there in the Wasteland! This is Radio New Vegas, and I’m your host, Georgie. And in case you’re wondering if you’ve come to the right place, you have.
What’s New in the Wasteland?
The Fallout TV show’s season 2 has been on our screens over Christmas, and we’re hooked! I’m excited to see where things go with the rest of season 2, especially where Vault-Tec and Hank are concerned! As far as video game adaptations go, you have to give Amazon credit – it looks amazing!
Anyway, it’s just about time to get you some news. We have some exciting releases coming up for the Fallout: The Roleplaying Game and Fallout: Factions–let’s get into it!
Fallout: The Roleplaying Game: Royal Flush Quest Book
Ring-a-Ding-Ding, baby! Fallout: The Roleplaying Game - Royal Flush is out, and players are heading into the Mojave to take in the sights under the Lucky 38. Whether you choose to help efforts in the wars to come, or drift between settlements like a helpful – and heavily-armed – tumbleweed, the choice is yours! Royal Flush takes you through levels 1-21 with the main quest, but you’ll never be short on sidequests to get sidetracked by either.
Royal Flush is available now worldwide.
Fallout: Wasteland Wanderer
The long-anticipated solo roleplaying game is coming! Wasteland Wanderer takes you on a unique journey, starting by developing both your own Vault origin story and Vault Dweller!
Record your experiences exploring the surface of a post-apocalyptic America, without the need for a gamemaster. Played anywhere, anytime, and at your own pace – Wasteland Wanderer is the perfect roleplaying game for your imagination to go wild. Where will your adventures take you?
Wasteland Wanderer will be available for preorder on January 28th.

Fallout: Dogmeat & Nate Painter’s Busts
Last month, Callum France showed us how he painted the non-metallic metals on the brand-new T-60 Power Armor and NCR Ranger Painter’s Busts. It’s a great read if you’re struggling with this!
We have some new Painter’s Busts to reveal, so hold onto your Pip Boy!
Dogmeat
Dogmeat Painter’s Bust - Painted by Callum France
Our most dedicated companion and fluffiest friend in Fallout 4, the Painter’s Bust of Dogmeat is in 1:12 scale and made of high-quality, multi-part resin. He comes complete with his iconic neck bandana and welding goggles. Will the goodest boy in the Wasteland join your collection?
Dogmeat is available to preorder now!
Nate
Nate Painter’s Bust - Painted by Rosie Williams
The sole survivor of Fallout 4’s Vault 111, Nate is a decorated army veteran on a mission to find those who kidnapped his son and avenge Nora. His Painter’s Bust is also in 1:12 scale, and made of high-quality multi-part resin.
Fallout: Factions - ‘Battle for Boston’ Starter Set
Now, for the wargamers among us, we have some exciting news: a new Fallout: Factions starter set is on the horizon! Ready those Vertibirds for takeoff as your crew ventures across the ruins of the Commonwealth, fighting for every scrap of turf to control the city. Watch your crew grow with every fight, and see if they become legends… or end up worm food.
The Starter Set comes with Brotherhood of Steel and Institute crews to get you going, as well as terrain, dice, and much more! To the victor go the spoils, but who will win? Which faction are you taking to the top?
Fallout: Factions - ‘Battle for Boston’ Starter Set will be available for preorder soon.

Fallout: Factions Crew Folio
If the Brotherhood of Steel and the Institute aren’t your thing, then the Crew Folio will be! Our biggest expansion yet is chock-full of new material for Fallout: Factions, including revised content for the ‘Battle for Nuka-World’ Starter Set, new definitions for Reach and Control campaigns, and new control quest lines for the four crews from the Fallout: Factions rulebook.
To top it all off, fan favourites the Gunners, Zetan Invaders, and Cult of the Mothman have been updated, while an all-new army of robots led by the Mechanist has been included! Fallout: Factions has more crews and quests to play than ever before in the Crew Folio, and an awesome Rogue Knight miniature to boot!
Let us know in our Discord which crew you'll be representing in the wasteland!
The Fallout: Factions - Crew Folio & Rogue Knight are available for preorder now!
Fallout: Power Play
Fallout: Power Play is dropping in from the Prydwyn soon! We have, sadly, had to push back the shipping date. While it was originally due for release this month, production and freight have taken longer than expected, pushing it back to February.
We know you’re excited to get your hands on this, but please bear with us a little bit longer.
Fallout: Power Play is currently available for preorder and due to ship in February.
Community Spotlight
Yesterday on the Fallout 2d20 subreddit, we had our first AMA of the year! Game devs Ben and Jessie, accompanied by project manager Jim Johnson, had a tell-all session as they were inundated with questions. If you missed out, you can catch up on everything HERE. Don’t forget to keep an eye on our socials for our next AMA!.
Fallout PAX Unplugged Actual Play
Back in November, we had an amazing group join us on stage at PAX Unplugged to do the world’s first actual play of Royal Flush! With Ed Spence as the gamemaster, Mark Meer and his fellow survivors went seeking riches (and anything else not nailed down) in the scorching heat of the Mojave. You can watch it on the Modiphius YouTube channel later today!
Tayler’s Tavern Tales, Mayanna Berin, Anjali Bhimani, Ed Spence, Jasper Cartwright, Lua Stardust, and Mark Meer starring in the PAX Unplugged Fallout AP!
Fallout: Wasteland Wanderer Twitch Stream
The Modiphius Twitch Channel also has an upcoming LIVE segment of Wasteland Wanderer! Join us as we get ready to journey through the wasteland by making our first Vault Dweller and rolling up our Vault origin story. Steve will be monitoring the chat for outlandish ideas, so join us and make him work for it!
Miniatures Spotlight
We’re rounding off the first #FalloutFriday of the year with some of YOUR amazing work!
Fallout 3: The Outcasts
Liam Bland - nulnpainter’s take on the Outcasts from Fallout 3.
First up is this fantastic take on Fallout 3’s Brotherhood Outcasts by Liam Bland! They’ve highlighted the red accents of this Power Armor beautifully. This brother looks primed to continue their mission of technology retrieval!
We absolutely love this and hope to see more of your work in the future, Liam!
Initiate Dogmeat – A Real Diamond in the Ruff
Sinan Atamer’s Initiate Dogmeat looks paw-sitively fearsome chomping on that hand!
We might play as the Lone Wanderer in Fallout 3, but man’s best friend means we aren’t ever truly on our own! Sinan’s piece depicts Dogmeat as the most faithful companion in the Capital Wasteland. Just like the one in his mouth, he’s always there to give us a hand.
Dogmeat’s fur detailing looks amazing here, particularly the way Sinan blended the two-tone fur colours in his coat.
Here’s to us and Dogmeat being companions fur-ever!
(Okay, I’ll stop with the dog puns)
In Fallout New Vegas, the House always wins…
Colourful Wasteland ensured Mr. House’s upgraded security was back on the strip promptly!
These Securitrons are fresh out of Bunker Hill and ready to serve Mr. House! We loved the rusting effects that Colourful Wasteland added to their Securitrons here. We’re sure they’ll be in pride of place at the Lucky 38, and anywhere they’re needed to enforce order on the Strip.
Thank you so much for joining us for January’s #FalloutFriday! What are you looking forward to the most? Let us know on Discord or the usual socials. Until next month, when we meet again, make sure you stay safe; it's dangerous everywhere out there!
That's all I have for you. This is Georgie, wishing you ladylike luck tonight.
