Mod Request: Talon Company Expanded

[Her Imperious Condescention]

The Institute backing Talon Company is definitely something I haven't taken into consideration; plus, it allows Talon Company to have a somewhat larger amount of Energy weapons, but not by much. This would also give them an excuse to have a couple Mister Gutsys and Sentry bots for the more dangerous of missions, like raids against Super Mutants. Good one, Jax.

QUICK EDIT: Plus, I could see them as people who think the Commonwealth the Capital Wasteland is in is rightfully theirs, so it's not much of a stretch to assume they hired Talon Company to make the place as chaotic as possible; Divide and Conquer, as they say.

In all honesty, I expect that is exactly the tact that Fallout 4 will take.

The institute backing the talon company would help from a lore/story point but from a gameplay stance I still think it's too much. At least that's my take on power armor. The most I would understand is the mentioned stripped down T-45s which offer a lot of DT, but with no other benefits and having a severe Agility penalty. That idea is actually kind of cool.

Ideally I just don't want too many enemies donning super armor. If anything, I feel that sometimes combat armor is underused. Combat armor, and reinforced combat armor especially is still significantly tough and will make lesser weapons almost useless. 

I am all for beefing up the talon mercs though, which is why I'm posting here. Giving a possible option to join them, giving them a bit more presence are things I'd definitely like to see. Just that power armor seems to be the "quick fix" to making NPCs tougher.

What's next, Girdershade power armor?

Nicely summed up. I don't think the Brotherhood of Steel just leaves their pride and joy laying around, even a broken suit of a comrade, for any old savage to take up. IF there is a stray suit here or there, it should be like a single, badly-maintained, hand-placed suit. 

Fallout 3 felt like everyone had it... Enclave everywhere, BOS everywhere, Outcasts everywhere.

New Vegas felt like it had the right rarity to me.
