Two days after the attack, on October 25, Captain Maxson sent one of his men, Platner, outside in protective power armor to scout the area and gather readings on the atmosphere. The Mariposa Military Base survived the onslaught, its numerous safety protocols protecting the soldiers within from the radiation and the F.E.V., which had been accidentally released and was now seeping into the newborn Wasteland. Within two hours, the Great War had ended and much of the Earth was reduced to a radioactive wasteland. Three days later on October 23, both nations launched their entire nuclear arsenals. Army was currently focused on escalating conflicts with the Chinese. To his confusion, he received no response from the chain-of-command, as the U.S. Maxson, now in control of the base, declared his desertion from the United States Army via radio on October 20. Anderson, along with most of his research team, were subsequently executed for their crimes. Captain Maxson proceeded to interrogate Robert Anderson, the chief scientist of the West-Tek research team stationed at Mariposa, learning the extent of their experiments. In the midst of the crisis, Maxson's men turned to him for leadership.
Morale in the base quickly collapsed and Colonel Spindel suffered a mental breakdown, eventually committing suicide five days later. On October 10, 2077, Captain Maxson and his men discovered, to their horror, that the West-Tek scientists at Mariposa were using military prisoners as unwilling test subjects for their genetically engineered Forced Evolutionary Virus (F.E.V.). On January 7, 2077, all West-Tek research and personnel – Maxson and his team included – were relocated to the newly constructed Mariposa Military Base in an effort to enhance security. Led by Colonel Robert Spindel, Maxson was part of a team sent on Januto monitor progress at a West-Tek facility in California, which was conducting research on behalf of the American government. The Brotherhood of Steel was founded by Roger Maxson, a captain in the United States Army. The Brotherhood of Steel is a quasi- religious organization operating across the ruins of post-war North America, with its roots stemming from the American military and the government-sponsored scientific community from before the Great War. Without us, humanity is sure to perish." -Vree "The only salvation this tortured planet and its people have.
