Fallout 3 Walkthrough (Modded) Part 248

For the first time, I listen to the Mantis Labs Radio. This begins a new adventure in the ruins of the Capital Wasteland and is the first episode of the Mantis Imperative mod.

Note: ENB replaces Reshade, Cinematech, Dynavision, and other visual mods. All the episodes from now on were recorded on a more powerful computer.

The mods I used in this series are listed here. Also, the complete playlist is now available on Youtube and Odysee.

Follow the timestamps:

• 00:36 - Listening to the Mantis Labs Radio for the first time. The "Mantis - Mantis Labs/Radio Transcripts" (Transmission 1) and the "Mantis Important Notes regarding The Mantis Imperative" are added to the pip-boy. I don't think you need to master update your mods to run this one (I didn't do that).
• 02:32 - To the Nuka Cola Plant. The Mantis Labs are northeast.
• 04:20 - Mantis Labs discovered. I hear the Mantis Lab voice, and the "Mantis - Mantis Labs/Radio Transcripts" is updated (Transmission 2).
• 04:50 - Raiders appear on the left, and the "Mantis - Mantis Labs/Radio Transcripts" is updated (Transmission 3).
• 05:12 - I search the Operative body and find the Cipher and the "Mantis - Operative?" note.
• 06:13 - Reading the notes. I'll have to go to RobCo Facility to find a way to install the Cipher.
• 07:54 - The RobCo Facility. The Pipboy Upgrade Terminal is in the entrance area. The "Upgrade my Pipboy" option installs the Cipher.
• 09:01 - Outside, the "Mantis - Mantis Labs/Radio Transcripts" is updated (Transmission 4).
• 10:05 - The "Mantis - Mantis Labs/Radio Transcripts" is updated (Transmission 5) as I arrive. Next: the Warrington Station area.
• 11:48 - Raiders on the ruins near Warrington Station. I investigate the makeshift shack (the one with a mantis portrait). The Mantis Labs Entry Pictogram and Mantis Insignia were in the metal box.
• 13:54 - I check the notes before returning to Mantis The Pictogram describes someone kneeling (crouching) before a camera (with the Mantis Insignia in his/her possession for 3 seconds).
• 16:43 - I crouch in front of the camera, drop and hold (Z button) Mantis Insignia. The door to Mantis Lab opens.
• 18:20 - Inside the Lab. The "Mantis - Mantis Labs/Radio Transcripts" is updated (Transmission 6).
• 19:58 - Walking around the containers, looking for clues.
• 20:15 - The "Mantis - Engineering Team" is on the shelf to the northwest corner. It mentions the nearby lift and a formula: Voltage x Amperage = Watts.
• 21:41 - The Voltage terminal (easy hack) is to the right, behind the containers. I need more details.
• 22:09 - I jump on the containers to the left to reach the upper ones. A crate contains the Mantis - Amperage terminal Password and Mantis - Voltage Terminal Password. I look for the Amperage terminal.
• 23:07 - I jumped from the top containers and found nothing (LOL). The Amperage terminal was on the ground level on the left, behind the containers.
• 24:55 - On the side of the lift is written "Lift Motor Rated For Exactly:2400 Watts."
• 25:36 - Amperage Terminal = 20. Voltage terminal = 120. I press the switch, and the lift rises, revealing the door to Mantis Lab. I go downstairs.
• 26:56 - Crouch in front of the door on the right while holding a gun to open it.
  There's even a hint painted on the floor.
• 27:50 - Accessing the terminal. Reading the "A soldier is resourceful" entry. I activate the Training Module and enter it.
• 29:05 - I'm teleported to a cave, and my equipment is removed. I take the .32 Pistol (and the ammo) on the table to kill the Evil Eyebot.
• 30:09 - The bobby pins to open the safe are on the right side of the cave. I retrieve all my items.
• 33:22 - I walk away from the safe, and a massive A Soldier Is Resourcul key spawns on the table. It unlocks the door, and I return to the Mantis Lab.
• 34:17 - I move forward and upstairs. The room on the right has broken terminals, and I find an Easter Papaya (01 of 05). I eat the fruit, and the Mantis - Easter Papaya note is added (Papaya the first).
• 36:42 - The door on the left leads to a kitchen/dining room. The restroom is right next to the kitchen.
• 38:15 - A Easter Papaya (02 of 05) is on a wooden crate under the dining table. I eat it, and the Mantis - Easter Papaya note is updated (Papaya the second).
• 39:52 - Back to the corridor. The door on the right requires a key, and the one in front of me is open. The Mantis voice informs it'll communicate through the terminals.
• 40:35 - Accessing the terminal. Reading the "A soldier is observant" and the "I am Mantis" entry.
• 40:12 - Activating the Training Module and entering it. I'm teleported to another cave (with an empty inventory).

• 44:44 - The local map.
• 45:17 - A basketball on the ground.
• 46:21 - A teddy bear on the ground.
• 46:40 - A makeshift basketball hoop. I grab the ball and put it inside it.
• 47:37 - return through the cave and find a camera on the floor. I place with on that stool.
• 49:11 - I put the teddy bear in the safe. The vault (13) door is open. I take my equipment, and a "soldier is observant lever appears on the right. I use it to return to Mantis Lab.

More puzzles to solve in the next episode.
