Against all odds, the desperate plan to rescue the Colonel succeeded, and Major Stein escaped MODUS’ control…although not without cost.

As the survivors regroup at Riverside Manor, they have to come to terms with what has happened…and how they were manipulated since the beginning.

Trader Red has a reunion of her own…finally confronting Cyrus and Violet in her quest to find Antlers, while Team Cryptic and the Brotherhood of Steel regroup at Vault Town as the PACT advances their own plans to eliminate all who oppose them.

At Big Bend Tunnel, Vinny Costas finds his own plans in jeopardy as the PACT comes calling…and while MODUS was dealt a setback to its plans…it will stop at nothing to eliminate its vulnerabilities…and human failings…at any cost…and all assets are…expendable.

Our survivors converge on the Whitespring, with a desperate plan to rescue the Colonel. With the odds stacked against them, the future of Appalachia hangs in the balance.

Meanwhile, Red and Cherry are closing in on their quarry in their mission to rescue Antlers. Cyrus and Violet will discover just how high a price there is to be paid when you cross a girl from the Tennessee Hills.

And back in the Mire, Abigayle Singh returns home. With the region once again in danger, the last of the Free Staters gets another chance to turn the tide.

After arriving in Appalachia, the Brotherhood of Steel tried to make sense of the chaos engulfing the region.

With the discovery of the PACT and the detonation of a nuclear weapon at the Nuka Cola Plant, Knight Shin heads south to investigate the Whitespring, at the Overseer’s urging, leaving Fort Atlas vulnerable.

Little do they know that a traitor has infiltrated their ranks…and war descends upon them.

Major Stein begins to confront his own demons, deep within his subconscious, while Vinny Costas has plans for the future of the Blue Ridge Caravan.

Red and Cherry continue their quest to free Antlers, Amanda and Cindy attempt to persuade Rose the RaiderBot to help their cause, while Jones and Abbie head back into the Mire.

And the remnants of the New Enclave are reunited at Riverside Manor…with an eye towards the Whitespring, and a daring rescue attempt.

The fate of Appalachia hangs in the balance.

Greetings, members, as always I am the Operative, your designated host and tour guide here at the Whitespring. We know you love our world and its story, but today, we thought we would… fool around, if you will. There are many what-ifs and different scenarios across the multiverse to experience.

Today, we take a look at one of those worlds where things are a little different than you’re used to. A world we don’t need to cross an ocean, or eleven, to get to. Today, we visit the world of: Stein’s Nine.

An alliance between MODUS and the PACT is now a reality and Project ONI moves ever closer to completion. Colonel Valeria spends her days locked in a cell, while the scattered remnants of the New Enclave and the factions of Appalachia struggle against the rising threats.

But even as the odds against them grow by the day, our survivors begin to reconnect and uncover vital clues and new information which may yet help turn the tide.

However, MODUS isn’t finished with his own plans for Appalachia…not by a long shot…and his next move will strike fear into the heart of the region’s survivors and shake the foundations of everything they’d built.

With the release of Amazon's Fallout TV Series, the cast and fans of the MODUS Files got together for watch episode one.

Take a listen to our thoughts, feelings, and the chaos that occurs when you get a great community of people together to watch the debut of live-action Fallout!

Enjoy!

The revelations of the PACT have changed everything we thought we knew about Appalachia. Each faction has a piece of the puzzle, but they remain scattered and without a means to coordinate.

Defeat may be inevitable, but the human spirit still endures and hope remains. However, in the mountains of Appalachia, there are still battles to be fought…nothing is certain…and you never know who is the hunter…and who is the hunted.
