I'd support Ceasars Legion except [Insert answer here]

I would of supported them if not for their slavery & blatant sexism. Really the only reason as to why I would even consider supporting them is for their brutal punishments to criminals, and their banning of alcohol/drugs (except stimpacks, that pisses me off). Another reason why I don't fully support them is for their hatred of tech. Seriously Caesar, what's so wrong with blasting someone's face off with a laser rifle? Also no stims? Fuck....that.......
 
I would side with the legion if they weren't a roman based faction ... because that means they would soon or later collapse just as the romans did ... and that proves Caesar wasn't as clever as most followers, they would see the big picture.

-- comon?! only a mad man would base his organization in a military model that was made obsolete by gunpowder.
 
I'd support Caesar's Legion except:

Guns beat spears!
Also, one of those skirts would look silly on my Power Armor.
 
Veronica put it best:

"Silliest dressed band of raping, slaving marauders you'll see east of California, I'll say that. Where's that touch of Old World class?"
 
I'd support Caesar's Legion except that by the time they got done changing all the things they'd need to to earn my allegiance, they'd be an entirely different faction.
 
I'd support Ceasar's Legion except:

*As a woman, I'd either be raped, enslaved, or killed. Or all 3. Not necessarily in that order ._.
*I have a problem with mass genocide. And crucifixion. And slavery. And brutal dictators.
*Spears suck when fighting against factions that USE GUNS
*They'd leave so few people left alive by the time they overran the wasteland, there'd be little left to rule over, so what's the point?
 
My last playthrough I did side with the Legion, and was woefully disappointed. I can get behind their militant outlook on life. I can get behind them enslaving people, oppressing women and generally being dicks. That's why I signed up - it's fun to be the Bad Guy now and then!

But I can't get behind the fact that Caesar is apparently trying to play Rome: Total War while I'm trying to play Fallout. Caesar should be called "Ceasar", not "Kaisar". "Ave" should not be pronounced "Awe". Seriously, who the hell would know how to use Roman pronunciation TWO HUNDRED YEARS AFTER ALL HUMAN KNOWLEDGE GOT BURNED IN ATOMIC FIRE!?

Also, they bring knives to gun fights. And win. Really, guys? I'm pretty sure that if I got a bunch of dumb-ass College Footballers together, armed them with machetes and told them to kill a group of men armed with M-16 assault rifles THEY WOULD DIE! At least in 40K the melee troops are super-soldiers in Power Armour, or bad-ass aliens, or Daemons from Hell. But here? Guys in dresses and sports attire can apparently ignore bullets through the power of bloody-minded idiocy.

I would side with the Legion, but I can't suspend my disbelief far enough to actually put up with their stupidity.
 
I'd support Ceasar's Legion except that they are all fucking insane. The fact that they "hate" women doesn't bother me. The fact that they take slaves doesn't bother me. Not even the fact that they crucify people bothers me. Its the fact that they all blindly follow orders out of fear, while Caesar has a huge misconception of life itself.
 
Well at first Caesar's Legion seems like the best hope for living in the Wasteland, but if you look closer they're close to collapse. You actually tell Lanius this, but if Caesar's Legion invaded California they would spread themselves too thin, they would have the same problem as the NCR, except the NCR has a governmental system to back itself up with. Also if someone ever found out about the real Roman Empire, that would cause problems too.
 
I'd support Caesar's Legion except that they were bad implemented in the game, you only see the frontier and the bad things leaving little room to their advatanges. I thinked that they would release a DLC that would explore the eastern side of the river, it would help their image.

Nowadays when I play NV I side with Houde or Caesar's Legion (occasianoly going indie) so you can say that even when they are not good I support them, mainly because of their alien look.

Hmmmmmmmmmm, I perceive a fantastic opportunity for a well-made custom-campaign mod! =D It would be really interesting to traverse an Arizona region locale where, unlike the Mojave Wasteland (or ANY of the games, for that matter), the random wilderness is bereft of much of any dangers such as raiders, because of the security of the Legion. In my mind, once you'd explore the settlements proper, they could take a lot of inspiration from Vault City in the "secure but bigoted" sense, if a low-tech incarnation of such a place. More than all those "more shit to shoot" and non-canon spin-off campaigns, THAT would be a campaign mod I'd love to see. =)
 
Well, might as well add my own "proper" contribution in the intended style of the topic:

I'd support Caesar's Legion except Marcus summed all the reasons why I shouldn't in one damn-well executed sentence. Caesar gave me tons of great reasons to support him, and ideologically I really wanted to, but once it became apparent (again, thanks to Marcus) that all that "good" Caesar was aiming for would be lost once Caesar himself died, there was no reason to support the Legion.
