Fallout 3 Walkthrough and SuperGuide

51. CHASE ACRES DAIRY FARM

Some Raiders make their base here. Kill them and loot everything. You’ll find a [PUGILISM ILLUSTRATED] in the silo and [GROGNAK THE BARBARIAN] on the 2nd floor of the barn.

*** Have some fun. Go up in the silo tower and wait till dark. Shoot one of the cars down below and watch the fireworks. You can actually look west to the orange truck you looted earlier and shoot the cab way over there from here, and watch that explode also. I shot it with a 10MM. ***

Keep going east towards the electrical towers and you’ll find a little building, the MDPL-16 POWER STATION.

52. MDPL-16 POWER STATION

Some minor loot here. Including a [NUKA-COLA QUANTUM]. Head NE towards THE REPUBLIC OF DAVE on your map.

53. THE REPUBLIC OF DAVE

As you approach the gate you will be questioned. Just tell them you wish to speak to DAVE and they will let you in. Close the gate behind you. Now head directly up to the main building and enter.

Equip your speech items. Save. Go left and talk to DAVE and convince him you are a representative of the wastelands. You can then talk to him about a few things (100% SPEECH check) and and convince him to turn over his KEY. Learn what you can and ask about the election and if you can help.

Save. This quest is a bit buggy. Talk to each of the 4 voters one at a time, making sure they go to vote, and leave the voting box (don’t get stuck). You can talk to ROSIE and BOB and SPEECH check them into running for president themselves. Also talk to JESSIE and SHAWNA. Once all 4 of them have voted, talk to DAVE. He will leave to check the vote. When he leaves, you are free to loot the [NUKA-COLA QUANTUM] bottle on the safe, and the [OL’PAINLESS] Rifle in the safe.

Leave and enter the “MUSEUM’ building. Take the [PERCEPTION BOBBLE-HEAD] and any other items you wish. Fast travel to CHASTE ACRES DAIRY FARM and head south towards the broadcast tower you can see. Half way there on the right side are some car husks and small radioactive pools. In the car shed is a [NUKA-COLA QUANTUM] and some ammo boxes. Continue south to the RELAY TOWER KX-B8-11.

54. RELAY TOWER KX-B8-11

At the Relay tower enter the gate and turn on the power. Now head SE to the edge of the rocks. Down below is a Sewer drainage tunnel. Look on your local map if your having trouble seeing it. Inside is some loot including [DC JOURNAL OF MEDICINE] and [PRE-WAR BOOK].

Continue SE towards a large watertower and barn silo. Nothing here except the outhouse to the east contains [GUNS AND BULLETS].

Go east and down the hill is a radioactive pond with a large overturned boxcar container. Inside is a [DEAN’S ELECTRONICS]. Fast travel back to the RELAY TOWER KX-B8-11 and this time southwest. You will encounter a Raider infested GRISLY DINER.

55. GRISLY DINER

The Diner is a Raider base but has nice loot, but careful some traps are also about. Once inside Raiders will appear to ambush you. Some items about are [TALES OF A JUNKYARD VENDOR], [KELLER FAMILY TRANSCRIPTS 3], and [MISSILE LAUNCHER]. Kill the raiders and loot the area.

*** There are a bunch of cars on the road outside the diner. Try and get all 4 of the blue cars burning and watch the fun ***

North of the Diner on the road is a Bus which has [US ARMY FLAMETHROWER RECIPE]. Now you want to head Due south towards the TEMPLE OF THE UNION which is already on your map.

56. TEMPLE OF THE UNION

Entering this small area you’ll be challenged and let into the Temple. Head upstairs and talk to HANNIBAL HAMILTON to start the HEAD OF STATE quest. Talk to CALEB SMITH and he will request you get a picture of the LINCOLN MEMORIAL from the MUSEUM OF HISTORY.

First Fast travel to the MUSEUM OF HISTORY and head to the offices then to the second floor where the picture is hanging over a desk. Now exit the MUSEUM and go right (west). Head towards the LINCOLN MEMORIAL, you will register MALL NORTHWEST on the way. Continue to the MEMORIAL. At the steps SILAS will talk to you. Head back out of combat range and go back to the TEMPLE OF THE UNION and talk to CALEB.

Save your game. Sometimes the rest of the quest gets bugged.

Talk to HANNIBAL. Now wait 1 hour to make sure the group starts moving out. Fast travel to the MALL NORTHWEST. Wait about 24 hours and the group should appear. HANNIBAL will talk to you again about assaulting the slavers, but tell him to wait while you take care of it.

Now go kill the slavers at the MEMORIAL, use good cover. Loot everything. There are many trip wires and mines on the path around the MEMORIAL, go around and disarm/pick up everything. Now report back to HANNIBAL and he will thank you with a [DART GUN SCHEMATIC]. At the soonest opportunity make yourself a DART GUN which is a awesome weapon you should keep on you all the time, useful to cripple legs of tough opponents.

You will level up soon to level 18. Raise Melee weapons to 57 and pick the CONCENTRATED FIRE perk. Fast travel to MEGATON and unload/sell. Pick up all the LINCOLN ARTIFACTS you have stored in your home and return to the MEMORIAL and sell the following items to HANNIBAL (make sure you have your speech boosting clothes on) in this order…

LINCOLN’S DIARY, CIVIL WAR DRAFT POSTER, JOHN WILKES BOOTH WANTED POSTER, LINCOLN’S VOICE, LINCOLN’S COIN COLLECTION, and ACTION ABE ACTION FIGURE.

Do not sell the LINCOLN HAT or REPEATER, they are nice items for you to use. Sell the rest. Through the small door near the MEMORIAL steps is the OPERATIONS OFFICE where a [NUKA-COLA QUANTUM] is located.

Intermission. hehe.

ok doing fine.. You should be about level 18 now with close to the following stats.

Strength: 8 (bobble + ant might) Perception: 8 (bobble) Endurance: 7 Charisma: 1 Intelligence: 10 (bobble) Agility: 7 (bobble) Luck: 8 (lucky 8 ball)

Barter: 70 Big guns: 28 Energy weapons: 74 Explosives: 74 Lockpick: 74 Medicine: 82 (bobble) Melee weapon: 57 Repair: 76 (bobble) Science: 80 (bobble) Small guns: 76 Sneak: 70 Speech: 86 (bobble/yew bear charm) Unarmed: 72

Still lots of books to find, lots of bobble-heads to get. Doing good.

Fast travel to the FARRAGUT WEST METRO STATION and head north. As you climb a hill and get up on a main highway, look NE and you’ll see a building with a big car poster on it. Go there to the CHRYSLUS BUILDING.

57. CRYSLUS BUILDING

The building has of course, Super Mutants. Kill them and loot everything. Some items you’ll find about. [NUKA-COLA QUANTUM], [GUNS AND BULLETS] in the north reception area room with the Nuka cola machine. [PUGILISM ILLUSTRATED] in the top level lower offices in a bucket by Nuka cola machine. In the basement a [BIG BOOK OF SCIENCE] is in the west room on a metal shelf. Plus TONS of other items like grenades, ingredients, etc.

The Super Mutant Master in the LOWER OFFICES has a master key. Once you are finished exit the CHRYSLUS BUILDING and head NW. At the road follow it north and it will swing around west into a huge Raider base, the BETHESDA RUINS. (The base is NW of the CHRYSLUS BUILDING)

58. BETHESDA RUINS

This is a huge Raider base, with lots of loot, and lots of Raiders. Start at street level and clear out the Raiders and loot them.

Enter BETHESDA OFFICE WEST and repeat, clearing out the Raiders and taking the loot. Items to watch out for.. [BIG BOOK OF SCIENCE] on the lobby desk, Top floor behind crates near freezer is [MINI NUKE], [DEAN’S ELECTRONIC] under a desk in a wooden crate.

Enter BETHESDA OFFICE EAST and repeat. Some items to look for.. 2nd level [LOCKPICK BOBBLE-HEAD], [MINI NUKE] near catwalk exit, first floor [CHINESE ARMY TRAINING MANUAL], and the Flamethrower raider holds a [US ARMY FLAMETHROWER MANUAL]. You can rest for 3 days and the Raider with the Manual will respawn. Go ahead and farm the Raider for a few times, you’ll reach level 19.. Raise Melee to 75, Repair to 80, and Sneak to 75. Pick ADMANTIUM SKELETON as your perk. Get your big guns up to about 40+. You can always come back.

Enter the BETHESDA UNDERWORKS where Ghouls reside. Kill them and find the loot [GROGNAK THE BARBARIAN], [MINI NUKE] hidden under wooden crate, and [TALES OF A JUNKYARD VENDOR] sitting on a bucket on a bench on the upper level.

Leave the area and head north. As you head over the hills you will come to a huge junkyard area. This is the SCRAPYARD.

59. SCRAPYARD

Not much to do here. Run about and you’ll encounter DOGMEAT fighting some enemies. He usually kills them before you get there. You can make him a pet and have him as a follower, or if you like solo, send him off to wait for you someplace safe. Hes great at finding things.

In the NW part of the SCRAPYARD is a husk of a tour bus next to a red box car. Inside is a ammo crate with [GROGNAK THE BARBARIAN], [GUNS AND BULLETS], and [US ARMY FLAMETHROWER MANUAL].

*** lots of Buses here. Blow stuff up if you want ***

Head east from the scrap yard towards a couple medium sized electrical towers. On the other side of them is an abandoned building complex filled with Raiders, the WHEATON ARMORY.
