The Idea: Events, short term faction goals that will be a basis for some good RP situations.
I'll give an example of what I mean to clarify:
(message sent to faction Leader's of BoS & Enclave)
Your radio operators tell you of a white flag signal telling you of a secret weapons stash at coordinates: (x, y)
the stash could hold new technology, and is almsot certain to put you ahead in the power struggle in the San. Fran Area.
The NCR are not aware of the existence of this stash, due to their inferior technology, however an alliance with them may help as the race to the stash will most likely end in a battle. Remember, however that NCR will not help you for free!
Plan accordingly, the event begins at (X o'clock GMT), until then, you can tell noone.
Due to the current friction between Enclave and BoS, any troops of the opposing faction in the vicinity of the stash may be KOS, though the possibility of a stalemate can be considered.
Why have these events: Like I said, RP events can give factions more of a purpose, and will refrain random attacks between factions, since these raids are usually fueled by boredom. This can also emulate a sort of power struggle between factions on the server, a theme present in all fallout games, It'll force leaders to think more tactically (notice the amount of variables added in that examples) And in general, add some more fun to the server.
If you think this is a good idea, I'll be the first to volunteer as an event writer!
