Meet the Brotherhood of Steel impersonators in Fallout 76! These guys are notorious for scamming people in the wasteland by pretending to be in the Brotherhood of Steel.

they seem like the normal BOS..just they need better power armor and a few laser weapons lol ----------------------------- Robert House on the BOS They're a terrorist group, basically. Militant, quasi-religious fanatics obsessed with hoarding Pre-War technology. Not all technology, mind you. You don't see them raiding hospitals to cart away Auto-Docs or armfuls of prosthetic organs. No, they greatly prefer the sort of technology that {emphasis}puts people in hospitals. Or graves, rather, since hospitals went the way of the Dodo. Because they're ridiculous! Because they galavant around the Mojave pretending to be Knights of Yore. Or did, until the NCR showed them that ideological purity and shiny power armor don't count for much when you're outnumbered 15:1. The world has no use for emotionally unstable techno-fetishists. Just wipe them out, will you? in the words of porter gage You know, I think I heard of you... some bigshot with the Brotherhood of Steel, right? They ain't that different from a Raider gang, you ask me. Just try and act all legitimate, but they still just take what they want. -------------------------------- They seem to be using the same Playbook as the BOS...walk around and, then demand you do what they tell you, or else.. Seems like the BOS i know.

the best part is that in Fallout 3, the BoS everyone knows is more impersonators then these guys are. Since the BoS are just assholes who want all pre-war tech for themselves, meanwhile the Capital BoS just wanna "help everyone get along!"

I actually like the guys and would have loved to see an option like "I know you're not Brotherhood, but here's 50 caps anyway." Also I find it super weird that they attack you after one of them explodes by no apparent fault of your own.

IMHO "Brotherhood Barnaby" sounds like he's five seconds away from wanting to recite the Navy Seals Copypasta.

It would have made more sense if Bethesda added more dialogue for some closure to Shawn's misfortune and stating to Knight Shin that *we* randomly encountered those impersonators and dealt with them accordingly. I never ran into any of those knuckleheads, unfortunately.

Omg Rifle...Barry had me rolling. What dev thought up this random encounter ? ...I mean ...seriously. but thank you for the vid and all you put out. Best wishes to you and yours

The response with the airship in the sky is a reference to how the brotherhood of steel appeared in fallout 4

I've encountered this at least once which was a surprise to me. They were escorting a lot of people and the one with power armor was demanded that I hand stuff over but I use the speech check to tell him that these fusion core was malfunctioning which caused fusion core to blow up killing him turning most of the group hostile.

Wow, that really took a lot of effort to create. So many encounters to hunt down! Very much appreciated!

13:39 Love it how you basically unintentionally summons the SheepSquatch to your location

I appreciate all the time you put into this one, nice job!

I swear when Buck said "move along" it reminded me of how Securitron act similar after paying to get the stipe

Hey Rifle, this was a very detail look at these guys, good job. I myself have still not come across them yet. Maybe one day.

Hey man hope your doing really good today and I hope your doing good and we can't wait to see more content from you bro keep up the awesome videos

Great work man. Just got back in to the game as I had dropped out after finishing the launch content. Haven't seen these NPCs yet but nice to look it for

How many characters did you have to swap through to get all of this? For the record, this is the first I heard of being able to meet them. But then I have over 2000 hours in FO4 and have never met the fake Preston Garvey either.

I feel like these three were inspired from Red Vs Blue... Barry reminds me of Caboose definitely, Barnaby reminds me of Sarge and Buck reminds me of either Griff or Tucker

I didn’t know these guys even existed! after seeing this I went around the whole map and couldn’t find them :(

4:58 "Aren't you guys a little short to be in the Brotherhood of Steel?" Amazing Star Wars a New Hope

Awesome video man. I don't have a lot of time to play now that I am older so being able to watch these at during the week helps so that on my downtime I can get on with the mission and not waist time and still know what is said. Would have been great to have this with NV and F3 lol

I have also come across them on the road that runs between Lewisburg and Rollins Labor camp and just east of Garrahan mining headquarters on the road.

10:28 there are 3 divisions of the BoS; 1. The order of the Sword, 2. The order of the Shield. And 3. The order of the Quill

One of the best lines ever in a game when they are about to die is, "I love you Sarge."

i ran into these guys in the southern lookout point in the savage divide, got the blow up power armor ending. had no idea it was actually part of the BOS storyline. Some dedication by Rifle to get all the dialog

these guys give me Red vs Blue vibes

when Barnaby says they flew in on a magical airship I thinks its a reference to fallout 4 when the brotherhood arrives on the prydwen

I like how the event free range popped up as soon as you chose the Sheepsquatch dialogue

I commend your tenacity for going through that for us. I've always wondered what happened or if it furthered the story any with the brotherhood but they're just goofy goons worth running into for a chuckle.

Kinda sad that if your a knight errant or wearing bos gear i assume they don't say anything special

When Barnabee says that we flew here on a magical airship that’s a redressed to fallout 4 when the brotherhood of steel cam to the wasteland

in my time spent, the sheepsquatch option has actually spawned a squatch. i believe it does most of the time.

I love that the one in power armor kinda sounds like fry when he says cheese it.

I love that the sheepquatch makes a noise just as the free range event comes out

When the guy in the Power Armor is using a Pistol, XD

better then the budget cuts in Fo4 lol, Yes the sarge dons the T-60 Mk.III yet has a tire iron for a weapon...

'we flew here in a giant magical airship in the sky!' Give it a few years and that's a pretty practical form of transportation for the Brotherhood.

Thanks for the effort.

Amazing! U got a new sub!

The flying airship line is like a little Easter egg to fallout four about the prydwen

So…”pincer move, go go go” Cpt Miller in Saving Private Ryan. The Drill Sargent from Full Metal Jacket. Pretty sure there’s much more to be found with these three. I’m thinking Barry looks like one of the tankers in Battle of the Bulge.

Funny I was playing 76 while watching this video right after you did the sheepsquatch part I ran into one in the same area

When I first met them I was so impressed I built a brotherhood of zeal base in the cranberry bog (just a couple of trailers and a broken house)

Ah I used the intelligence part with Barnaby, when they ran off I had to hunt them down one by one.

Would have been nice if it did trigger alternative dialog at fort atlas.

Perfect timing for the sheepsqatch event to begin

Aways Nice to find more work hid on the game

Cool but again they dropped the ball on making any of it connect. They have some great ideas but some of the decisions leave the game feeling half done. None of the decisions you make in the bos or wastelanders have "real consciences" like they claimed. Nothing like the other games. Thanks for your hard work did not even know this was a thing.

Why do I get a feeling they are suppose to be, Sarge, Simmons and Donut from RVB

Nice Star Wars reference with that charisma check

I haven't played in years, not since the wendigo colossus was added, but I'll be damned if it's not tempting if there's more good content to do, and this looks pretty good to me
