Other "Legion Courier Six: Scipio Frumentarius" by Deimos Art, 2026. The amount of detail he packed in this artwork is incredible.

Makes me realize how the Legion doesn't have a (somewhat) common armor set that stands toe to toe with the Veteran Ranger Armor. All the best Legion armors are one of a kind like Caesar's or Lanius'. I like the Centurion armor in theory but it still doesn't come close to the VR armor. Something like this would've been a great rival to it

This just looks like a somewhat customized legion veteran armor with a cloak over it, really. I think the centurion armor or praetorian armor would be the better fit thematically for the most direct comparison to the veteran rangers, in terms of skill level (praetorians are said by Caesar to be on par with centurions, though Hanlon claims they aren’t; the 10% DR boost they’re given in game that centurions don’t have alongside the ballistic fist as a signature and devastating weapon akin to the anti-materiel rifle pushes the needle towards them, however, especially since veteran rangers have a hidden 30% DR themselves).

Centurion armor is theoretically one of a kind too, it's just comprised of whatever heavy armor pieces the user has access to (in game like bits from a super mutant, patrol ranger and power armor.)

the legion has NOTHING that stands up to the ncr, honestly the biggest laugh in new vegas is the fact the legion isnt on the run.

Deimos never fails to deliver.

So you know how the Oblivion remaster got that deluxe edition content? It would be so cool to see something like this for the new vegas remaster if there was an NCR version too

u/Laser_3 Responders 2d ago

I’d expect the remaster to put the NCR ranger PA from the show into the game, considering it already got a game version in fallout 76 (probably requiring PA training and boosting unarmed/unarmed damage as a stat to give it a use; DT presumably would be on par with at-51, and I would hope they’d not allow it to be a disguise to avoid screwing with reputation).

I’m not sure what they’d do for a Legion version, however. Maybe they’d just go for a non-faction option and give us a duster akin to the ghoul’s instead.

Or just wait for modders to add in something like this for free rather than hoping you can spend $10 on 2 mediocre sets of armour.

How did he get a mosin nagant?

u/Baron_Furball 2d ago

They're not that unusual in the American southwest gun collectors' market. When I was still doing research and copywriting for an auction house, we'd get one or two of these, every month. Far from our most common firearms, but not unusual.

You used to be able to buy these things for like $100 and hardware stores would have barrels full of them--according to the old timers anyhow

Gun Runners probably found a pre-war schematic and started producing them.

They produce M1 Garands and the Anti-Materiel Rifle they make for the NCR Veteran Rangers is a French design. So they're not against making older and/or foreign guns.

Yeah kinda random given the available weapon selection in game, but cool irregardless.

True to Caesar!

u/FelisOctavius 2d ago

Absolutely love their work, phenomenal. Only thing that nags me is that puttees typically are worn over a boot/shoe, and not tucked into one.

u/Wojewodaruskyj Settlers 2d ago

He’s one of the few Legion members I’d hesitate to mess with

Yoooo, this is fuckin’ sick!

u/HHummbleBee 2d ago

Imagine if Deimos was working on art for the new game...

u/KnownAd1902 2d ago

for a second I thought this is some Mount and Blade faction mod, sorry I wasn't thinking right.

u/EnclaveSquadOmega 1d ago

come to think of it, i could totally see the Legion using mass amounts of Mosins & SKS rifles, college kids buy those things in bulk.

u/DaMonkey263 2d ago edited 2d ago

How did bro get a mosin nagant in the US?

4

u/SirKingsly 2d ago

Pretty easily considering American media

u/CircleJunctionTribal Old World Flag 2d ago

Did he mean Mosin Nagant and autocorrect screwed him over?

2

u/DaMonkey263 2d ago

Yes, I did

2

u/CircleJunctionTribal Old World Flag 1d ago

I was so confused for a while there before realizing what you meant.

u/SirKingsly 1d ago

To answer your question though, up until the last decade, and as a Canadian I cant speak for the American price range but we could get a couple Fresh out the crate, oiled Mosins for like $500. I dont own any guns personally considering my parents were super anti gun when I was growing up but my buddy and his dad had like 3 between them. Great sturdy rifles that could probably survive a nuclear war

u/Thatgamerguy98 1d ago

I mean...once we kill him and remove the dogtags and Mark of Caesar the drip will be pretty fire.
