The Capital Congressmen

Mr. Marlin · 05-16-2016, 01:54 PM

“
I've been thinking quite a bit lately about something we can all relate to, something that is unquestionably, inescapably… American. I am referring, of course, to our great national pastime - baseball. Or so it had been. That's right, America. Before we were devastated by atomic war, each state had its OWN professional baseball team. Imagine, a perfect, cloudless day. The sun is warm and welcoming. And on the horizon, they appear, like knights of yore, armed with bats of ash and hickory. Their name? The Capital Congressmen. Their purpose? To make you, dear America, revel in the joys of sport and sunshine, if only for an afternoon. Now ask yourself this: What if the Capital Congressmen could live again? What if they could compete with baseball teams from Pennsylvania, or Maryland? Put your faith in John Henry Eden, great America, and baseball will live again! Comfort, recreation, healthy competition - all will live again! This country WILL live again!

President John Henry Eden from Fallout 3

These guys come to play.

I did a couple logos...

Mr. Marlin · 05-16-2016, 11:16 PM

Have these been done before Justafan? I found the art that had the logo by accident looking for something else using Google.

justafan · 05-17-2016, 10:15 PM

Not that I know of. I just felt like doing a logo.

They were mentioned in one of the Enclave radio broadcasts in the game Fallout 3. I pasted the text of the broadcast in the original post. They were not in the game beyond that mention. I didn't even know there was a logo until I accidentally ran across it while searching for a Fallout 3 mod. I didn't remember anyone ever making a version for OOTP so I did it.

Actually an OOTP game based on Fallout 3 would be a laugh. The Megaton Atoms... the Tenpenny Towers... The Old Olney Deathclaws... the Citadel Knights... The Andale Cannibals... The Point Lookout Hillbillies... The Republic of Dave Presidents... The Cantebury Commons Traders... it just writes itself!

Sorry that was two laptops ago. But I remember it was a regular windows font. Shouldn't be too hard to match.
