FALLOUT: The Power Wars

This is just an idea for a mod. Don't cream in your pants in anticipation just yet. :twisted:

Fallout: The Power Wars for RED FACTION
I'd like to take the fallout universe and put it into a 3d engine. Actually, the Red Faction engine. The main two reasons for this are:
1. Geo-Mod Technology. Nothing like walking into town, levelling the place, and moving on. 8O
2. Drivable vehicles. Not only would it add a more realistic feel, driving a highwayman or jeep through town, but it would also let you cruise through the wasteland in style. 8)
-----------------------------
Other features of the game might include:
1. Ability to Prone, Crouch, and Stand. This isn't entirely necessary in a first person shooter but it would add to the realism as well as please those sticklers out there that really love the Delta Force series and wish to do a bit of sniping.
2. First and Third Person Views. It would be good to have both due to the large amount of players out there who enjoy tomb raider style gameplay.
3. Scope View. I had in mind something like Delta Force so it doesn't turn the entire screen into your scope as Red Faction has it set up.
4. A Vast Arsenal at your disposal. A wide selection of weapons to customize your gaming experience.
5. Customizable weapons. Some weapons can get: Scopes, laser sights(mainly for 3rd person view), hi-cap mags, fire mode upgrades(burst, full auto), Caliber upgrades, engravings, custom handles(brahmin horn, gecko skin), and gold plating.
6. Arena Mode. Much like Mad Max Beyond Thunder Dome. It would be a steel cage deathmatch between the player and a variety of npc characters, played for experience, cash and prizes. Two man enter, one man leave.
7. Prison System. For the more homicidally inclined. Those wishing to become town killers will have to deal with the law. Bounty Hunters and Citadel Guards will chase you down, across the wastes. If captured, you will spend the rest of your stinking life in THE CITADEL, a large prison facility dominating the scorched landscape.

A brief summary of the towns and the changes they are going through:
ARROYO:
Originally, this was a teepee infested village full of uneducated tribals. After the Chosen One recovered the holy G.E.C.K., it became a full fledged city, thriving for years. It was only when the Enclave returned to power that it was destroyed. Now, only a few villagers remain, trying to reclaim their lives like a phoenix from the ashes. Monuments to the Chosen One and Vault Dweller are pretty much the only things left standing.
NEW RENO:
The gangsters of old have given way to the new. The city is divided solely among two groups: the yakuza and the Pintoreli crime family. The two are constantly at war, stopping all boxing competitions and threatening the gambling and prostitution rackets.
NEW CALIFORNIA REPUBLIC:
Although the firearms and cattle trade are still strong, the government is in upheaval. President Tandi has been assassinated along with every member of her staff. Two lethal factions will do anything to take control of the town, even kill every person in it.
DEN:
The slave trade, under new leadership, still thrives here. The operation has expanded, now dealing in the thousands. Den has become the official hub of the slaver world. The entire town is filled with slavers, jet heads, and gang bangers. Nothing more. No good can survive here.
SAN FRANSISCO:
The city has fallen under the Lo Pan Dynasty. They learn Lo Pan Kung Fu and remain oppressed by strict rule. The Hubologists, never being able to lift off into space, have been destroyed. The religion is dead along with all of it's members. The dock which once housed a large freight ship, now holds a horde of homeless people and a non functioning speed boat in need of a fusion battery.
VAULT 21:
This was the last vault to open in the wastes. It was a one of a kind experimental Cryo-Vault, keeping it's inhabitants frozen until it was safe to re-enter the world. The hero of our story is from this vault. Due to a malfunction, he remained frozen a bit longer than he was supposed to. He awakens to find everyone gone. Holotape footage shows that they were taken by a group known as the Enclave. To where, nobody knows.
VAULT CITY:
The most fortified city in the wastes. It is under siege by an army of raiders, those that were refused entrance into the city. With it's defenses gone and walls crumbling, it is only a matter of time before the city is taken.
ALCATRAZ ISLAND:
This ancient island/prison has become home to the Enclave. While most of their forces were destroyed in an atomic explosion, this top secret base thrived. It is supposedly where the prisoners of Vault 21 are being kept as scientific lab rats.
VAULT 13:
Home of the Vault Dweller, questing place of the Chosen One, center for a cult hell bent of technology. The Machina Cult is building an army of biomechanical cyborgs in a plot to take over the wastes. They contain detailed information on the Brotherhood of Steel, Enclave, and plans for total domination. They also have a working jeep and some spare fusion batteries...
NAVARRO:
It was once the mainland outpost for the Enclave. Now, it is home to an ill-tempered group of super mutants, angry at their creators. All that's left is a few looted buildings and an aircraft hangar containing a powerless vertibird. If only it had a fusion battery...
RAIDER BASE:
Hidden in the wasteland, this base is home to hundreds of raiders. They scour the wasteland for goods, even if they must be taken by brute force, and return here to stockpile them. Currently, they are trying to overthrow Vault City. If they succeed, they will continue to grow until they become a super power, bent on taking everything for themselves.
BROTHERHOOD OF STEEL BASE:
The technology center of the wasteland...For now. They were once the tech-super power with chapters stemming out to several cities. However, the Machina Cult at Vault 13 and return of the Enclave are threatening their very existance.
GECKO:
This was once a town filled with ghouls and a working nuclear reactor. However, as it fell into disrepair, the reactor suffered a meltdown killing the inhabitants of Gecko as well as any neighboring town within a ten mile radius. Slowly, life has returned but the ghouls are no more. Those that remain in the wasteland have become evil creatures, angry at anyone that looks normal.
BROKEN HILLS:
This was once a town with a dream. A dream of unifying humans and super mutants. It is a dream that will never be realized. After the unexplained murder of the town Sheriff, a super mutant, war broke out between the human cattle men and mutant miners. The conflict continues to this day, making Broken Hills an all-out war zone.
-----------------------------------------
The game will also feature an extremely large arsenal of weapons, a few npc allies that will join your quest, plenty of equipment, Augmentations, Perks, Traits, enemies, vehicles, and skills. But, as i've taken up enough space already, i'll save those for later.
My two bits,
