There's a few placed all around the world. If you're looking for an infinite supply, one of the generic Boomers west of the buildings out by some tents will spawn every three days with a fat man and three mini-nukes.

Just remember, you'll either need to pickpocket them, or become vilified by the Boomers to constantly get the supply.

Yeah, the whole mini nuke thing, or lack there of, is annoying IMO. Love the fatman, but it is so weak in this game, and I think there are only about 9 of them in the world.

Here is the wiki on them: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Mini_nuke_(Fallout:_New_Vegas)

The Fatman is unnecessary. It serves no purpose beyond Michael Bay sploshuns.

One could argue the same about the Plasma caster too. :spotted owl:

... Huh? The Plasma Caster is actually practical, and is actually really good if you slap on the HS Electrode.

Not really, in the old games it made a cheesy 'melt em to the bones' B-List science flick effect. And in New Vegas, it's just terrible, or so I feel anyway. In Fallout 3 the fatman was a powerhouse, and rightly so, but I find both weapons to be terrible in New Vegas. :shrug:

yah it sickens me to see that the fat man can probably do a tops of 300 damage i mean in fallout 3 it did like 1000 and killed anything in its way and i did not use it all the time i know that it was like one of my all time favorite gun and its really dumb they just took down the power like that and also dont have that many nukes for it either i mean even if it doesnt do that much damage its still nice to see that nuke go off :biggrin:

You kidding me? The Winchester P94 kicks ass. You can blow through MFCs really quick. Hell, it was the best gun in Fallout 1.

ok as you can probably see im talking about new vegas. Is that weapon in NV? NO. So if its not in there why would u bring it up. and i am not kidding you like serously the fat man owns i dont know why u dont like it. If you didnt like it in fallout 3 your crazy!!

The E charger needs a buff too. 15lbs. And its just weak, its a dman orbital laser, and yet I may aswell have just walked up to lanius and shot him with a .22 pistol for all the good it did. It made it like a scene from ther terminator. A blinding flash of light, sixonds later I see lanius running at me through the fire with his sword and then he just killed Rex 0.0. A few weapns should be buffed in this game. Especially the fatman and archemidies, fatman has limited supply, and archemedies is a once a day thing.

yes i agree i also have both those weapons and they should do more damage except for the archamedies it does a good amount of damage

Winchester P94 = Plasma Caster/ Plasma Rifle (FO1 & 2 & Tactics) FYI.

No no it dose not. it has a 1 use per day, and weighs 15 lbs, it has a quest just to get that. Its a satalite laser. It is weak, it should be the strongest weapon in the game, from all the work to get it and the fact its a freaking laser from space. Use it on lanius, he isnt even phased by it, he just shrugs it off, and it dose hardly any damage. It is not fine. Unless your playin V easy or something.

I thought the P94 was the rifle (From the old fallouts)

» Fri May 27, 2011 4:35 am

It's the same thing. They couldn't call it a "rifle" because Fallout 3 retconned it with their poser plasma rifle.

Plasma Caster = Fallout 1 and 2 Plasma Rifle.

No no no, I could have sworn there was the plasma caster and a rifle too. Unless Im confusing the F1-2 gauss rifle as a plasma rifle.

» Fri May 27, 2011 7:25 am

No, there was no Plasma Caster in 1 and 2 it was the Plasma Rifle. They couldn't call the Plasma Caster the Plasma Rifle because 3 retconned Fallout 1 and 2 with its Plasma Rifle.
