“Nope. I'm just the only ranger around. The rest of the kids here are troopers. Inexperienced, out-numbered and under-equipped.”
Ranger Milo is an NCR Ranger stationed in the Mojave Wasteland in Fallout: New Vegas. He is patrolling at a small NCR checkpoint on the western outskirts of Nelson.
Background[edit]
Equipped with his Cowboy Repeater "Carmine,"[1] Milo has witnessed the Battle of Nelson and the subsequent occupation of the town by Caesar's Legion.[2] He has locked down the western road leading into Nelson,[3] supported by a few remaining NCR Troopers.[4] Not having the authority to command the troopers to retake Nelson,[5] he is an uncompromising individual who looks for someone trustworthy to relieve the captured trooper hostages in Nelson from their suffering.[6]
Publications[edit]
“The main road from Novac to Nelson has an NCR Ranger Checkpoint [6.S05] where Ranger Milo is attempting to give the crucified Troopers in town a quick death. The road continues down (watch for Frag Mines) and around the perimeter, to the northeast Guard Tower.”— Fallout: New Vegas Official Game Guide Game of the Year Edition pp. 418-419
“Ranger Milo defends the road to prevent the Legion from razing Novac, and his checkpoint is the last line of defense between here and the doomed settlement of Nelson [6.06]. Speak to Milo for a Side Quest, and don't forget to open the footlocker for some very handy items.”— Fallout: New Vegas Official Game Guide Game of the Year Edition p. 426

- He remarks upon the reputation the Courier currently has with the NCR when they introduce themselves.
- He has special dialogue for a Courier with less than four Intelligence.[9]

- ↑ Ranger Milo: "Me and Carmine - that's my repeater here - will do our best to cover you from this ridge. Good luck."
(Ranger Milo's dialogue) - ↑ Courier: "What happened here?"
Ranger Milo: "Troopers tried moving down from Forlorn Hope because we got this big gap between there and Searchlight. Turns out we were spread too thin. We took our sweet ass time setting up in Nelson and the Legion managed to hop over the Colorado and attack before things were settled."
(Ranger Milo's dialogue) - ↑ Ranger Milo: "Hold up there. This area is locked down by the NCR military until we can dislodge some Legion snakes from Nelson."
(Ranger Milo's dialogue) - ↑ Courier: "Are you in charge here?"
Ranger Milo: "Nope. I'm just the only ranger around. The rest of the kids here are troopers, inexperienced, out-numbered and under-equipped."
(Ranger Milo's dialogue) - ↑ Courier: "Don't you have the authority to command the troopers to go into the camp?"
Ranger Milo: "I'm a ranger. They're troopers. Different branches. I don't have authority over them even though they're as green as a Super Mutant's backside. Besides, they'd probably start crying as soon as they saw the hostages get so much as a bruise. Nope, they don't got the stomach for it."
(Ranger Milo's dialogue) - ↑ Courier: "Why take out the hostages?"
Ranger Milo: "The troopers won't go down into the camp with their comrades at risk. Dirty game the Legion likes to roll out whenever they get a chance. Problem is, Ranger Milo doesn't want to play. If we take out the hostages, they've got squat for leverage."
(Ranger Milo's dialogue) - ↑ Courier: "What needs to be done?"
Ranger Milo: "If you had a few dozen doses of Psycho on you, maybe we could pep these weepy troopers into charging down into Nelson and taking back the camp."
(Ranger Milo's dialogue) - ↑ Courier: "[Psycho] Funny you should mention Psycho. I actually have a few dozen doses on me..."
Ranger Milo: "All right, I have to admit I wasn't expecting you to say that. I was just joking. But if it makes you feel any better, I am impressed. So anyway, how about those hostages?"
(Ranger Milo's dialogue) - ↑ Courier: "Snakes are small. Why don't you just use a gun or whatever to shoot them?"
Ranger Milo: "You're one of them 'special' folks, ain't you? They ain't... real snakes, see? They're Legion soldiers. I just called 'em snakes because they're low down and sneaky. Like a snake. Anyway, we always have trouble with the Legion 'round here. This time, they jumped the camp in Nelson while the troopers were setting up. Captured a bunch of gear and took the town. Couple of troopers too. Got 'em crucified down near the center of town."
