    And you can’t think of them building back up (even one major chapter), with the help of other Brotherhood chapters, in the fifteen years afterwards?

    That’s a failure of your imagination, buddy, not a shortcoming of the show.

      The only other chapters are on the east coast, have no desire or ability to contact each other. Hell, the west coast group don’t even know the east coast chapters survived, let alone thrived because they seized project purity. And while they made the trek before, the middle of the US after that became Caesar’s Legion, 15 years after his fall it would be an impassable wasteland.

      The east coast chapters were strong enough in DC to send out squads to Boston, but never anything more than a recon. Its even Bethesda lore in fallout 4 that they dont have the resources to move the Prydwin back to DC.

      The NCR can make prewar tanks, power armor and vertibirds; they have a GECK.

      Edit: to be clear: the only ending the western brotherhood of steel has to survive is to be absorbed into the NCR.

        You have no idea what happened in the 15 years between FNV and the show, or the 11 since FO4.

        All I’m hearing is that you couldn’t have imagined it, therefore everyone else is wrong— and that just makes you look like you have a very limited imagination, not that everyone else is wrong for coming up with a better story that you could have.

        You’re very welcome not to like it, but you still haven’t laid out any solid evidence for your claims other than speculation.
