Indeed the deal breaker here are Sentrybots as only one squad of PA had heavy weapons and they were forced to retreat. It's not about armor, it's about firepower. One PA trooper has one las rifle. Meanwhile Sentrybot has 2 miniguns and 2 rocket launchers ie it's equal to 4 PA troopers with heavy weapons. And it's all anti infantry weapons.

I think it's gonna be more akin to the explosive rounds. Lore wise .50 cals still aren't enough to shred power armor. Break it with sustained fire? Sure. But enough for four sniper rifles to take out power armor troopers and sentry bots. Nopers.

Well, according to the lore NCR introduce super mutants and ghouls into the service ranging from transportation to specialize units due to their very obvious resilience towards radiation.
For real, this guy has me itching for extra 2 minute CGI clips more than "AAA" tv shows and movies ever could. Sodaz does amazing work, godspeed you glorious animator o7
The red light of the Ranger's helmet shining through the binoculars is the sign of the great attention to details and love that SODAZ puts into his videos.
@@vmone7678 Were did they get the idea? It's literally the signature of Kerberos. Made known in the west by the film Jin Roh. Should watch How Jin-Roh Stands Alone by BeyondGhibili. It shouldn't be a coincidence when Riot Police uniforms in New Vegas emulate the Panzer Cops of Kerberos. Right down to the sturdy armor, helmet/gasmask/glowing eyes.

@@Alte.Kameraden Nah. It's definitely a Warhammer 40K reference. I remember seeing a drawing of a Space Marine in 1988 with glowing red eyes. That means it comes from there.
While I do think that this super mutant is intended to be an NCR trooper, it does make sense that the abolitionist organization is also quite progressive with who they recruit.
@@sarahluise3153 I checked he was actually intended to wear a normal sized ncr ranger hat but I think the devs just cut him from the game for no reason apparently 🤔
Elijah and Moore couldn't care less about the meat on either side of the battlefield. Both only care for results. Difference here is Moore has the better balance of power. Peak quality, nothing else like it!
She was also focused on the battle. If Elijah was paying attention he possibly could have had an even better defense but he was way more concerned with unlocking the secret of helios just leaving his men to fight it.
The Rangers in black are here to play. And I love how they were asked to help since the Desert Rangers are still a separate branch of the NCR military. And I like the Super Mutant here as, by this point, the NCR was welcoming to both Ghouls and Super Mutants, even in the military.
Desert Rangers no longer exist, they were fully absorbed into the NCR Rangers when the Ranger Unification Treaty was signed (commemorated by that big ass statue you see of a NCR Ranger and Desert Ranger shaking hands).
@@The_Haruspex The Ranger Unification Treaty and Operation Sunburst both happened in 2276. Given the timeline, it's not impossible the Rangers weren't yet part of the NCR command.

Pretty sure those ones had been Desert Rangers. (or Veteran Rangers in the game) As to why the colonel asked for help instead of ordering. Since NCR Rangers and Desert Rangers had been two separate things pre Unification Treaty.
I love the tension building in this scene. The Brotherhood's employment of Sentry Robots, completely unnoticed by NCR Army Intel, has turned the tide back in their favor, with the 1st Recon and both flanks retreating. The AT team is pinned down and could very well be wiped out in short order, leaving the NCRA without the means to truly hit back against the Brotherhood's Paladins. Thankfully, NCRA command is keeping it relatively cool, and has deployed it's own ace in the hole; the Rangers, who will undoubtedly make a good account of themselves. Also, love the presence of a Super Mutant in the Army, since the NCR is canonically among the most tolerant and accepting of the Wasteland nations of such individuals. And him serving as Logistics Personnel works well too.

This is the continuation of Fallout's Mojave version of the La Drang Valley battle. The BOS manages to slowly break through the main front line of the NCR despite their unstable flanks, but the Rangers will likely counter the BOS & Sentry Bots in the next series of videos. This is where many see some minor similarities to We Were Soldiers movie ending with Mel Gibson.
You are a God among men. This is what people wanted but, never got. If I had money, I’d send more but alas I need to pay for school and a house first. You deserve every penny.
Every installment of this gets me more and more invested and hyped and I very eagerly await each upload. The attention to detail, the lore knowledge, the effects and voice acting, its all so grand. I'm sure someone has probably pointed this out but the Rangers being specifically asked instead of ordered is an excellent detail, the inclusion of a Super Mutant NCR soldier as they incorporated mutants and ghouls into their forces, and even though its not the focus of this episode the use of Power Armor as a breakthrough weapon and to shield supporting troops from fire during an advance... Looking forward to seeing this done, love sharing it to my buddies into the series as well!
The amount of detail detail in your work is astounding, on top of the quality of animation. From small visuals like the customs paintjobs on armor, such as Lucius' skull on his T-51 helmet and now these rangers, adds so much in the way of showing personality/individuality. Also the way each faction acts, the BOS are small in number so more value is placed on each soldier even if it's just from a tactical perspective, the NCR on the other hand have so much more people that they can afford to sacrifice their own troops or, as shown in this wip, "shooting anyone who retreats". We even see an NCR supermutant, which if I'm not mistaken was something that was cut from FNV, showing how they're a lot more tolerant of other wasteland inhabitants, while the BOS, especially in the west at this point in the timeline, are xenophobic isolationists so their forces are only comprised of humans and machines.
@@TheStormtrooper00 Alot. The show simply wasn’t clear on this. The BOS isn’t “winning” an expedition they’re just going on in Southern California and Shady being nuked doesn’t mean the country has fallen. All of the infrastructure, organisations, and other remaining territories are still with the NCR. Its set in Southern California for the reason that theyre probably holding NCR content for later, and there are maybe a million citizens outside of Shady Sands with Tens of Thousands of soldiers returning from the Mojave and Southern areas alone.
@@romanusplayz-wx7ow The NCR collapsed unto itself, it was stated numerous times in the show... Also the BoS is continental wide force, while the NCR is regional at best.
@@proximacentauri3627 It means little when the side those corpses belong to can afford to spend those troops, and the Brotherhood can't afford to lose their shiny armours. Quantity is a quality all on its own.
@@rebound1266 The BoS would have been wiped out completely without power armour. The NCR would have had a lot more men to face the Legion if the BoS lacked PA. It obviously means a great deal. But I was talking more about the perspective of the poor NCR grunts. It's fitting that your counterargument ends with a Stalin quote. Cold and detached from the suffering of your own people.
I can’t wait for this its about to be awesome, the warhammer community really lost a great one but many other communities benefited so there’s the silver lining. Who knew we’d get such high quality fallout, halo, and stalker animated content?

@@rebound1266 yeah you have a point but my main issue is that even before GW and war hammer as a whole became main stream. GW were already just absolute Corpo sleaze bags who just don't care any more, the rot grew in 2012 and it eventually just ended up setting in in 2020. Now that GW has brand new clientele and now with all that money pouring in, it's likely they would end up losing every bit of shame they once had and turn in it Disney before they either completely sell out.

I'm getting massive "Clone Trooper" vibes from those Veteran Rangers. Each of them look the same, yet are entirely distinct. Also the one in charge sounds kinda like Dee Bradley Baker. Amazing showing an NCR Super Mutant as well.
The big green hauling machine! I love the idea of muties working in the NCR thinking it's like "hey, they know I'm friendly. I can try to build a place up n get us accepted"
Meanwhile several clicks away some 200 y/o old man in the Lucky 38 nodding in disappointment: "Victor bring me some sterilized Popcorn will you? Sodaz is about to drop some Stealthboy pretty soon!"
I love how the Ranger’s squad leader didn’t promise a victory. Just that they’ll do their best. They obviously have a plan, but they’re experienced enough to know it’s no guarantee they’ll succeed. Also, if anyone’s gonna carry a crate with 4 anti-material rifles like it’s just another box of supplies, it’s the big man serving the NCR like they are :)
Does the AT fire .50 BMG? Cause unless it does, I dont know how the NCR could field 4 in one squad and have enough rounds between the 4 of them for their armoured targets
@@TheStormtrooper00I doubt the BOS would fare well against those threats either, legion centurions even use Paladin armor showing that they've fought and won against the BOS.
I'm enjoying the improved subltety that you're bringing to the animation of human movements and faces. This is really good stuff- the characters have weight and pathos... can't ask for more ❤❤❤
As the Vanguard of the once indomitable NCR vanguard retreats, their heavy weapons teams are trapped under the relentless assault of the sentry bots. Under such strain the NCR calls upon their most deadly allies, the epitome of skill and most vaunted ranged warfare specialists, The Rangers. The sole predators and protectors of the Mojave, they make ready to spill the blood of of the enemies of the NCR

When sunburst is finished, I would like to see Hoover Dam first battle.
This is the continuation of Fallout's Mojave version of the La Drang Valley battle. The BOS manages to slowly break through the main front line of the NCR despite their unstable flanks, but the Rangers will likely counter the BOS & Sentry Bots in the next series of videos. This is where many see some minor similarities to We Were Soldiers movie ending with Mel Gibson.
My prayers have been answered
You are a God among men. This is what people wanted but, never got. If I had money, I’d send more but alas I need to pay for school and a house first. You deserve every penny.
"Just between us, Colonel Moore scares me sometimes."
Every installment of this gets me more and more invested and hyped and I very eagerly await each upload. The attention to detail, the lore knowledge, the effects and voice acting, its all so grand. I'm sure someone has probably pointed this out but the Rangers being specifically asked instead of ordered is an excellent detail, the inclusion of a Super Mutant NCR soldier as they incorporated mutants and ghouls into their forces, and even though its not the focus of this episode the use of Power Armor as a breakthrough weapon and to shield supporting troops from fire during an advance...
Looking forward to seeing this done, love sharing it to my buddies into the series as well!
The amount of detail detail in your work is astounding, on top of the quality of animation. From small visuals like the customs paintjobs on armor, such as Lucius' skull on his T-51 helmet and now these rangers, adds so much in the way of showing personality/individuality. Also the way each faction acts, the BOS are small in number so more value is placed on each soldier even if it's just from a tactical perspective, the NCR on the other hand have so much more people that they can afford to sacrifice their own troops or, as shown in this wip, "shooting anyone who retreats". We even see an NCR supermutant, which if I'm not mistaken was something that was cut from FNV, showing how they're a lot more tolerant of other wasteland inhabitants, while the BOS, especially in the west at this point in the timeline, are xenophobic isolationists so their forces are only comprised of humans and machines.

The BoS defeated the Enclave,what chance do the NCR have?
@@TheStormtrooper00
Alot. The show simply wasn’t clear on this. The BOS isn’t “winning” an expedition they’re just going on in Southern California and Shady being nuked doesn’t mean the country has fallen.
All of the infrastructure, organisations, and other remaining territories are still with the NCR. Its set in Southern California for the reason that theyre probably holding NCR content for later, and there are maybe a million citizens outside of Shady Sands with Tens of Thousands of soldiers returning from the Mojave and Southern areas alone.
@@romanusplayz-wx7ow The NCR collapsed unto itself, it was stated numerous times in the show... Also the BoS is continental wide force, while the NCR is regional at best.
@@TheStormtrooper00
Todd said the NCR was still alive lol
also the Brotherhood lost to me and Preston. Biggest L in history
@@TheStormtrooper00
Also do you know who else defeated the enclave?
Those paladins are going to be reminded why the Anti-material rifle is a great weapon to penetrate armor. NEW CALFORNIA REPUBLIC FOR LIFE MOTHERF***
"Bitches love cannons!"

almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter
*Todd Howard enters the chat*
The Brotherhood are about to find out why purity of ideals and shiny armor mean little when you're outnumbered 15 to 1.
There's a large field full of corpses that would disagree about the shiny armour meaning little, if they could.
More like 20:1and they retreated because they depleted all of their ammo into NCR bodies😏
@@proximacentauri3627 It means little when the side those corpses belong to can afford to spend those troops, and the Brotherhood can't afford to lose their shiny armours.
Quantity is a quality all on its own.
@@rebound1266 The BoS would have been wiped out completely without power armour. The NCR would have had a lot more men to face the Legion if the BoS lacked PA. It obviously means a great deal.
But I was talking more about the perspective of the poor NCR grunts. It's fitting that your counterargument ends with a Stalin quote. Cold and detached from the suffering of your own people.
@@proximacentauri3627 Barely a drop in the NCR's bucket of resources.
The monthly dose of Sodaz is more satisfying then any other chem... Thank ya boss
I can’t wait for this its about to be awesome, the warhammer community really lost a great one but many other communities benefited so there’s the silver lining. Who knew we’d get such high quality fallout, halo, and stalker animated content?
GW is one over priced minie and bad gender faction change away from being placed on the filing bankruptcy golden Throne.
@@CopeSeethorntin oh keep coping with your pathetic anti-feminist rant about female custodes! 🙄
Fallout has been queer for years long before the term "woke" was invented by the far right fascistic party of America. Touch grass while you're at it!
@@CopeSeethorntinaccurate username lol
@@CopeSeethorntin Considering Space Marine 2 sold 2 million copies on launch day alone that's probably not accurate.
@@rebound1266 yeah you have a point but my main issue is that even before GW and war hammer as a whole became main stream. GW were already just absolute Corpo sleaze bags who just don't care any more, the rot grew in 2012 and it eventually just ended up setting in in 2020.
Now that GW has brand new clientele and now with all that money pouring in, it's likely they would end up losing every bit of shame they once had and turn in it Disney before they either completely sell out. Or there products became absolute booty stink, they just end up falling apart and rotting away.
Pride comes before the fall, ask the Aildari. And they hadnt even reached there peak till recently and they already De formed in to the British version of Disney.
Thank you for casting voice actors rather than using AI. Colonel Moore sounds incredible.
One of the best fallout NV animation I’ve seen.
Was having a bad day at school. Everyone was being a jerk for no reason. Came home all sad and depressed. Then saw Sodaz uploaded, BEST DAY OF THE WEEK!!!
I love the idea of the supermutant helping move supplies, reminds me of a real story about a bear in italy that was helping move artillery shells.
Love the supermutant at the end. Very excited for the remaining 30%
I'm sure the storyteller would have loved this.
RIP.
Wait!! What happened?
@@kaiserwilhelm8029 Storyteller passed a few days back. His wife posted saying how proud he was to be a part of such a great community, and how much he loved the content he made. It's the end of an era my friend.
The music in all these WIPs has no right going that hard.
I hope we get a list once the full video is out.
Same man, I've been frantically trying to find the music.
It's Fallout Digital Nightmare OST
How have I not found out about your channel sooner?!?! THIS IS AMAZING!!!
I love how the ranges have different armour markings. Makes them feel a lot more unique and distinctive I also love that super mutant NCR soldier.
I haven't felt this exited about fallout in near a decade. keep up the good work
It's a small detail but I like the appearance of a super mutant, as I recall, super mutants and ghouls are able to join the NCR
Despite being overwhelmed the NCR general maintains his cool and sends in his elite NCR rangers with anti-material rifles.
Her*
@@tamperd6342 Their*, if you're gonna be fussy.
Some veteran rangers are also ghouls.
And said commander is a Colonel, if I remember correctly, Colonel Moore I believe, correct me if I'm wrong.
@@rodolfodelacruz6026 Yes, she is. But I dont think the Ranger have been participated in the Helios One.
Love the animation but the constant loud rustling with ever small movement from the Colonel and other NCR officers was quite comical.
The absolute goosebumps dude. The rangers full clad in decals, the supermutants, the AM bloody rifles. This is mouth watering.
BoS paladins shredding NCR troops: calm
Antimateriel bois arrives: PANIK
I'm getting massive "Clone Trooper" vibes from those Veteran Rangers.
Each of them look the same, yet are entirely distinct.
Also the one in charge sounds kinda like Dee Bradley Baker.
Amazing showing an NCR Super Mutant as well.
Incredible. As a huge fallout new vegas fan, having learned english only to play it, Iam addicted to your work
NCR Commander:"There's heavy units outside!"
Me:"It's the B.O.S, YOUR GONNA FIND HEAVY UNITS OUTSIDE!"
Supermutant NCR Trooper!
Yes baby!
This gives me years of life back!
The big green hauling machine! I love the idea of muties working in the NCR thinking it's like "hey, they know I'm friendly. I can try to build a place up n get us accepted"
Aaaah, the .50 Cal. The gun that made me discover the glory of pointing at something and watching it stop existing.
Meanwhile several clicks away some 200 y/o old man in the Lucky 38 nodding in disappointment:
"Victor bring me some sterilized Popcorn will you? Sodaz is about to drop some Stealthboy pretty soon!"
I stopped all i was doing when i saw the pop-up
I love how the Ranger’s squad leader didn’t promise a victory. Just that they’ll do their best. They obviously have a plan, but they’re experienced enough to know it’s no guarantee they’ll succeed.
Also, if anyone’s gonna carry a crate with 4 anti-material rifles like it’s just another box of supplies, it’s the big man serving the NCR like they are :)
The brotherhood thinks they just played their trump card, but forgot the NCR always keeps an ace up their sleeve
I saw the Rangers? "Oooohhh yeeeaaah."
Soldier brings in the AMRs? "OOOOOHHHH YEEEEAAAAAH!!"
Been watching this project for a while now. You’re doing such an awesome job man! Keep it cooking
SODAZ uploads? Time to fucking drop everything and watch
Is that four anti-material rifles against a single sentry? That sentry is fucked...
There are three sentries plus the PA... But they can absolutely drop them
Does the AT fire .50 BMG? Cause unless it does, I dont know how the NCR could field 4 in one squad and have enough rounds between the 4 of them for their armoured targets
@@jamesmortimer4016 Yes the all powerful rangers that couldn't even tackle barbarians with machetes and a drugged up gang Fiends lol.
@@TheStormtrooper00I doubt the BOS would fare well against those threats either, legion centurions even use Paladin armor showing that they've fought and won against the BOS.
@@clowncargaming8046 The Legion doesn't stand a chance against the BoS. Those PA parts were probably from NCR salvaged PA.
Love the Super mutant
I'm enjoying the improved subltety that you're bringing to the animation of human movements and faces. This is really good stuff- the characters have weight and pathos... can't ask for more ❤❤❤
omg I love the inclusion of the Super Mutant trooper in the background outside Colonel Moore's tent
oh wait he popped up again haha. and THERE are those anti-materiel rifles we've been waiting for
I was feeling so good for the Brotherhood front line too 🥲 they have such heart. Give em hell boys!!!
I didn't know the New California Republic hired super mutants
More than that...they have reports of them in the army
@@funnseeker8494 really that surprising
All citizens of NCR have same rights - it doesnt matter if your human, ghoul or super mutant.
yea they even have special force units that is pure ghoul or super mutant.
Fuck yes, this hit hard !!! Also NCR using Super Mutants and ASKING not ordering Rangers is super sweet. Good job SODAZ 👍
Man i love your work what i really love is how you mesh rule of cool and actual tactics well together.
goddamn does Sodaz make both factions seem cool af
The last ace up the NCR’s sleeve
As the Vanguard of the once indomitable NCR vanguard retreats, their heavy weapons teams are trapped under the relentless assault of the sentry bots. Under such strain the NCR calls upon their most deadly allies, the epitome of skill and most vaunted ranged warfare specialists, The Rangers. The sole predators and protectors of the Mojave, they make ready to spill the blood of of the enemies of the NCR
MOM WAKE UP. SODAZ UPLOADED NEW FALLOUT SUNBURST AND THERE’S VETERAN RANGERS IN THE THUMBNAIL!!!
Holy shit super mutant ranger. Thank you mr. Sodaz you are too good to us…
loved that the rangers have some decals on their armor
incredible detail and amazing lighting. loved seeing the ranger's binoculars light red for a moment from his visor.
minutes of glory
