steam版首發，受友人翻譯避難所系列文啟發，盡微薄之力翻譯陣營背景。 ============================================================================= Caesar's Legion 凱薩的軍團 “My Legion obeys me, even unto death. Why? Because they live to serve the greater good, and they know of no alternatives.” — Caesar 「我的軍團服從我，即便我命他們赴死。問我為什麼？因為他們是為了侍奉更崇高的目標而生，而且他們知道他們別無他擇。」　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　— 凱薩 Caesar's Legion is an autocratic, traditionalist, imperialistic slaver society, and a totalitarian dictatorship. Founded in 2247 by Edward Sallow (also known as Caesar) and Joshua Graham, it is based on the ancient Roman Empire. Its legionaries are a well organized, culturally insular fighting force that mainly operate east of the Colorado River and the Grand Canyon, in the former state of Arizona. Ever pushing west, their capital is the city of Flagstaff. 凱薩的軍團是個具獨裁、傳統主義、帝國主義色彩的奴隸社會，且為極權專政。２２４７年，由愛德華‧薩洛與約書亞‧葛拉漢姆建立。軍團的士兵有著組織良好且帶古羅馬風格的作戰方式，主要征戰於過去被稱為亞利桑那州的科羅拉多河及大峽谷地帶，甚至開始推向西方。軍團的首都位在佛拉格斯塔夫。 Caesar's Legion is comprised mostly of reconditioned tribes and their descendants. The Legion's symbol is a golden bull on a red field, which is derived from Julius Caesar's standard for the Tenth Twin Legion. 凱薩的軍團包含著數個重建的部落及他們的後代。軍團的象徵是紅色為底色的金公牛，源自於尤里烏斯‧凱薩所建立的第十合組軍團的軍旗。背景介紹 In the year 2246, the Followers of the Apocalypse sent a group of nine members to the Arizona wastelands to study the region’s tribal languages. The group included Follower Edward Sallow, who met with the New Canaanite missionary Joshua Graham, a specialist in tribal dialects. Not long into their travels, the group was captured by the Blackfoot tribe and held for ransom. 在２２４６年，天啟追隨者派遣一個九人組成的小隊前往亞利桑那廢土，研究當地部落的語言。小隊成員包含愛德華‧薩洛，與他一同的是新迦南的傳教士約書亞‧葛拉漢姆，一名部落方言的專家。然而他們的旅程未過多久便被黑足部落所俘虜以要求贖金。 At the time, the tribe warred against seven other tribes, and suffered from a lack of skill in warfare. Against his companion’s wishes, Sallow aided the Blackfoots to save him and his companions from their captor’s enemies, giving them knowledge in gun maintenance, small unit tactics, explosive improvisation, and military strategy. The tribals admired Sallow so much that they made him their leader. With that, Sallow took the name Caesar, and began reorganizing the tribals he commanded into the Legion. 就在當時，黑足部落正面臨著與其他七個部落的戰事中，但卻缺乏作戰的技術。薩洛在違背同伴們的希望下，協助黑足部落對付他們的敵人以確保他與同伴們的安全。薩洛提供給黑足部落關於槍械維護、小組作戰、爆裂物製作以及軍事等知識。黑足部落十分欽佩薩洛，甚至使他成為了他們的領導者。這個時刻，薩洛使用了凱薩的名號，重新組織了整個部落，號令他們成為了「軍團」。 Caesar established warfare policies in the Legion based on the concepts of divide and conquer and total war. The Legion defeated the region’s seven tribes from weakest to strongest, and completely dominated each faction’s land and people. The people conquered in campaigns were conscripted, enslaved, or killed. Caesar saw the tribes “playing at war,” and tribals viewed his tactics as foreign, as their warfare consisted of skirmishes that never escalated into major conflicts. 凱薩構築的軍團作戰方針建立在兩種概念：各個擊破與全面征戰。軍團由弱至強擊敗了這七個部落，且完全地統治他們原先支配的領地及人民。在戰事中被征服的人民若不是被徵召入伍或成為奴隸，就是被殺死。凱薩眼中的這些部落就像在「戰爭中遊戲」，這些部落從對於凱薩的戰術感到陌生，他們對於戰爭的理解不過是個小小衝突，從未真正體驗過如此巨大的衝突征戰。 With the combined leadership of Caesar and Graham, declared the "Malpais Legate," the Legion led campaigns against more tribes, forming a fanatically loyal army with their captives. Eighty-six tribes had been conquered by the year 2271, and the territory Caesar led formed the most powerful society east of the Colorado River. The Legion expanded west into the Mojave, and established Fortification Hill on the Colorado River in 2277. The advancing forces eventually made contact with the NCR near New Vegas, and began a campaign to take the region. 結合凱薩以及被宣稱為「荒地軍團長」的葛拉漢姆的領導下，軍團開啟與數個部落的戰事，藉由這些部落的俘虜組成了一支狂熱忠誠軍隊。就在２２７１年，八十六個部落已被征服，成為了東方科羅拉多河地帶最為強大的社會組織。軍團開始向西方推進，來到了莫哈維，並於２２７７年建立於科羅拉多河之上的山丘要塞。這股推進的力量最終帶著軍團對上新加州共和國，開啟了爭奪莫哈維的戰役。 Under the command of the Malpais Legate, Legion forces marched against the New California Republic garrison at Hoover Dam, in an attempt to take the strategic asset and river crossing. In what became known as the First Battle of Hoover Dam, the Malpais Legate initially had the upper hand. The Legate was able to push the NCR defenders back and lead his forces over the dam. Lead elements of the NCR, including members of the 1st Recon Battalion and NCR Rangers, executed a tactical retreat west across the dam and into Boulder City, all the while using their marksmanship prowess to kill the Legion officers (primarily centurions and decanii). The Legate, unable to adapt his strategies in combat or see the deception unfolding in front of him, chose to order his legionaries to push the rangers, not knowing the NCR had booby-trapped Boulder City, packing C4 along their line of retreat and within the city itself, and drawing the Legion into a trap. When the Legion forces entered the city, the NCR detonated the explosives and inflicted severe casualties amongst them, crippling their offensive. The NCR forces then counter-attacked, pushing back and eventually routing the Legion forces who fled east back over the dam. Caesar, angered at the failure of his Legate, made an example of him. The Praetorian guard covered the Legate in pitch, set him on fire, and cast him into the depths of the Grand Canyon. Caesar forbade mention of his name, and now he is spoken of only in hushed whispers by the lowest Legionaries and slaves; they call him the Burned Man. 在荒地軍團長的帶領下，為了奪取戰略要地以及跨越科羅拉多河，軍團的行軍對上了在胡佛大壩的新加州共和國駐軍。就在這場名為第一次胡佛大壩之戰的戰事中，荒地軍團長起初佔了上風。軍團長將新加州共和國的守軍擊退，並帶領著他的部隊越過大壩。由包含第一偵查軍團以及NCR遊騎兵的領導軍力，執行了向西跨越至博爾德城的戰術徹退，過程中運用精準地槍法射殺了數位軍團士官。軍團長在無力改變作戰策略以發覺前方的設局下，命令軍團士兵強行進攻遊騎兵。此刻，軍團長並不知道他們已中了NCR埋在撤退路線與博爾德城本身下方的C4炸藥陷阱。當軍團勢力進入城市，NCR隨即引爆炸藥，造成非常嚴重的傷亡數，癱瘓了軍團的攻勢。NCR部隊接著進行反擊作佔，擊退軍團並將他們的勢力推回大壩以東。凱薩對於軍團長的失敗感到憤怒，並打算以儆效尤。凱薩的禁衛軍以瀝青淋在軍團長身上並將其點燃，將他推下大峽谷深處。凱薩將軍團長的名字視作禁語，如今成為了下位士兵及奴隸們的低聲耳語，他們稱其為燃燒者。 By 2281, Caesar's Legion has re-established its power in the west, rebuilt its army, and has slowly encroached on the city of New Vegas. They continue to contest NCR over all of the region, destroying several NCR bases such as Ranger Station Charlie and Camp Searchlight, overrunning the NCR town of Nelson, and creating unease and terror across the region. Sometime before the Second Battle of Hoover Dam, the Caesar's Legion has conquered a new tribe under the command of centurion Gaius Magnus, bringing the number to eighty-seven. 在２２８１年，凱薩的軍團於西方重新振作，重建軍隊並緩慢地入侵新維加斯的城市。軍團持續與NCR爭奪莫哈維，摧毀了數個NCR基地如遊騎兵哨站：查理以及探照燈營地、佔領原屬於NCR的尼爾森城，並且製造不安與恐懼於整個莫哈維地帶。就在第二次胡佛大壩之戰前的某個時刻，凱薩的軍團在百夫長蓋烏斯‧馬格努斯的領導下征服了新的部落，將軍團的部落數目提升至八十七個。 ============================================================================== 大致上只翻譯了軍團背景的部分，剩下的內容就待大家前往Fallout:New Vegas探索。軍團能否成功制霸莫哈維地帶，就看玩家們的選擇了。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 36.239.102.120 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Steam/M.1512166353.A.7B2.html ※ 編輯: DenUsLLeh (36.239.102.120), 12/02/2017 06:13:45
