The Boomers are a tribe in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.
在2281年，爆破者是一个生活在莫哈维废土的部落。 Background 背景
As part of the Vault experiment, Vault 34's armory was overstocked with weapons and ammunition. It was also equipped with a vast number of recreational facilities, including a full-sized swimming pool, at the cost of living space.
作为避难所实验的一部分，34号避难所的军火库被填进了超量的武器和弹药。同时避难所还配备了大量的娱乐设施，包括大号的游泳池，而放入这些设备的目的都是为了挤占生活空间
According to various sources inside the vault, the vault became overpopulated. Foreseeing problems, the Overseer had a remote link to the armory lock installed on his terminal, denying access. A group of residents demanded access to the armory, stating their need for the right to defend themselves, which the Overseer denied. Rioting broke out soon after, and the group who had demanded access to the armory stormed the exit and left the vault. As they wandered the Mojave Wasteland, they fought many tribals with their weapons, easily outclassing the comparatively-primitive wastelanders. However, for "every 43.6 savages" they killed, one of their own died. Thus, they sought a home, and found Nellis Air Force Base, long since left empty because of the residual radiation, which the Vault dwellers easily circumvented with the use of their Geiger counters.
因为各方面的原因，避难所很快就变的超载了。预见到可能发生的问题，避难所监督用他个人的终端远程锁定了避难所军火库。一部分居民要求开放军火库，言称他们需要自卫的权利，但是监督一口回绝了他们的要求。然后避难所就发生了暴乱，要求开放避难所的一部分人随后砸开了避难所大门出走。在他们漫游莫哈韦的途中，运用手中的武器和很多部落进行过战斗，他们强大的火力能轻易轰杀那些相对原始的多的废土居民。不过“每干掉43.6个蛮人”，他们就要损失一个成员。所以，他们迫切需要一个家，这使他们找到了内里斯空军基地，因为辐射的关系这里一直空着，利用盖格计数器这些避难所住民很快就到达了这里。
In 2231, the group of dissidents from Vault 34 struck out on their own and began using Nellis as a temporary base. Over time, they eventually decided to call Nellis their home. They learned a great deal of information from the Air Force's records and used that information to open the weapons storehouses at Area 2 and the Hawthorne Army Depot, neither of which are present in Fallout: New Vegas. The result of their efforts was an enormous stockpile of heavy ordnance, artillery, and a small number of nuclear weapons.
转眼到了2231年，这些自行离开的34号避难所反叛者开始将内里斯作为一个临时的基地。随着时间流逝，他们最终决定把内里斯当做家园。他们从内里斯基地的数据储存中获得了很多信息，并利用其中一部分数据开启了基地第二区的武器仓库和附近的哈索军火库，虽然它们在辐射：新维加斯中都没有出现。爆破者们由此获得了海量的重型武器，火炮，甚至是少数核武器。
They trained themselves in the art of aerial combat by using the virtual reality flight simulators already there inside nellis Despite having no planes or fighters to fly. Except for The destroyed bomber in the hangar which may be used for new parts for the new bomber in the lake to make a new bomber in the quest Volare!
他们利用基地内保存的虚拟现实设备对自己进行空战训练（虽然基地里已经没有能飞的飞机了）。除了一架坠毁在附近湖泊中，还可以修复的轰炸机，通过“起飞！”任务这架轰炸机会得到翻新。
Due to the tribe's paranoia, hostility, and excessive reverence for explosives, the New Vegas locals started calling them "Boomers." The Boomers didn't mind their name as long as it meant outsiders kept their distance. No matter who approached them (Mr. House, the Vegas families, NCR, or Caesar), the Boomers had the same response: artillery. While the Boomers' attitude has kept away trouble, all of the major players in the Mojave Wasteland want to get on the tribe's good side. People simply have no idea how to accomplish that. Intelligence indicates that the Boomers have a clean water supply from Lake Mead, power from solar panels inside the base, and thriving farms that they've learned to develop "the hard way" over the decades they've been in the base. Once, the NCR attempted to shut off the Boomers' water supply. The Boomers' response was to shell sections of the NCR's water pipeline in eastern New Vegas. The NCR promptly restored the flow.
鉴于这个部落顽固，偏执，又对过分的爱好爆破，新维加斯的居民们也就开始称他们为“爆破者”。但爆破者并不关心他们的名号让人敬而远之。对于任何试图接近他们地盘的人（不管是豪斯先生，新维加斯三大家，新加州共和国，或者是凯撒军团），爆破者的回应一视同仁：轰杀至渣。虽然爆破者对外界的态度通常是明哲保身，但莫哈韦废土的其他势力还是愿意想他们示好。人们只是不知道如何把这个态度传达给他们而已。情报表明爆破者可以从密德湖获取清洁的水源，以及从基地内的太阳能电池板获取能源，并利用基地的跑道种植作物，这种生活方式已经维持了十数年。新加州共和国曾经试图切断爆破者的水源供应，而爆破者的回应则是炸断了新加州共和国在东维加斯的输水管线，新加州共和国马上就闪了。
In the months that followed that experiment, no one has tried to approach the Boomers, which is just how they like it.
有鉴于此，没人再敢接近爆破者了，而这也让他们则乐在其中。
Boomer Museum Mural
爆破者博物馆的壁画
The left part represents when the boomers were in and then emerging from the vault while destroying "savages" the middle section represents the present where the boomers are living inside nellis airforce base. The right part represents the future when the bomber from lake mead destroys ignorant "savages" by dropping bombs on them.
画面左边表现的是爆破者从避难所中的迁出和摧毁“蛮人”，中间部分则是爆破者在内里斯基地的定居生活。右段则是在未来爆破者将驾驶密德湖中坠毁的轰炸机用轰炸毁灭无知的“蛮人”。 Society 社会 爆破者警卫
Having left Vault 34 and finding the Nellis Air Force Base, the Boomers had to find new clothes that reflected their independence. They found old military jackets in the base and used them over their vault jumpsuits. Each jacket sports several military medals for decoration, and embroidered on the back is the number "34", as to never forget where they came from.
再离开34号避难所并找到内里斯基地之后，爆破者需要一套新的服装来显示他们的与众不同。他们将基地里找到的军用夹克套在他们的避难所制服外面。每件夹克都挂满了各种军事勋章作为装饰，并且在背面缀上数字“34”，以此表示他们不会忘记自己的起源。
They are a self-educated society, produce their own food and weapons, live in self-sufficiency, and have no relations with the outside world.
这是一个独立的社会，生产自己所需的食物和武器，生活自给自足，和外界没有任何瓜葛。
The Boomers believe that self-armament is the key to a peaceful society, meaning that each Boomer carries a weapon and will not hesitate to use it when the time calls for it.
爆破者认为自我武装是实现和谐社会的关键，也就是说每个爆破者都会随身携带武器并在需要的时候毫不犹豫的使用它们。
The Boomers are attached to their history, whether past or present. A large fresco in their museum tells of their great epic, out of Vault 34 to the future acquisition of the Boeing B-29-100-BW Superfortress at the bottom of Lake Mead.
爆破者很注重种族的历史，不管是过去还是现在。博物馆的巨型壁画向他们表现历史，从34号避难所的出走到未来他们将驾驶密德湖底的波音B-29超级堡垒轰炸机。 Structure 社会结构
Their structure is very basic; there is a doctor, a teacher, a leader, a guard, mechanical technicians, and a keeper of the story to keep their history. Only the leader can give orders to the others and has absolute power over everything.
爆破者的社会结构非常简单：一个医生，一个教师，一个首领，一个警卫，一些机械师，和一个历史讲解员负责保存历史。只有首领可以发号施令并拥有绝对权力。 Military 军事
The Boomers have an extremely basic military hierarchy, consisting of basic guards, mortar teams, the acting Master of Arms, and the Elder. A combination of guards armed with man-portable explosive launchers and howitzer teams will bomb the area south of Nellis when somebody enters targeting range, with the exception of the intruder making it close enough to the fence, where they will either detain the intruder or kill them. The commanding officer, called the Master of Arms, coordinates the guards in both defensive and offensive (mainly diversionary) operations, and the Elder of the Boomers has the ability to issue new orders and alter or override existing orders with all forms of military and security procedures without contest.
爆破者也只有很简单的军事结构，包括基本的警卫，炮组，以及军队指挥官和长老。警卫们装备着单兵式的爆炸物发射器，炮组则对任何进入内里斯南面瞄准区域的人狂轰滥炸，除非闯入者成功的靠近了基地的外墙，这些人要么被抓起来要么被干掉。军事指挥官被称为武器大师，负责指挥战斗中警卫的进攻（主要是牵制性的）和防御，爆破者长老则有权利发布新的命令以及不经讨论的修改和撤销现有的军事和安全命令 Relations with the outside 外交
They are hostile towards anyone who tries to approach their base and refuse to trade with anyone. However, due to the powerful weapons that the Boomers have in their control, they have attracted the interest of the main factions in the area. The NCR hopes to establish diplomatic and trade relations with the Boomers, while Caesar's Legion seeks to absorb them into the Legion. Mr. House wants their weapons aimed at his enemies.
虽然爆破者视一切试图接近他们基地的外人为敌也不和任何人交易。但他们拥有的强悍武器还是吸引了这个区域内主要势力的共同关注。新加州共和国希望能和爆破者建立外交关系，而凯撒军团则希望能把他们吸纳进军团。豪斯先生需要使用他们的武器对抗敌人。 Technology 科技
从二号区回收的榴弹炮。
Coming from one of the most heavily-armed Vaults in existence, Boomers are extremely well-equipped. They each have a Pip-Boy 3000 and are well versed in the use of explosives. They have missile launchers, grenade launchers, fat men, and many old military howitzers that they use to repel anyone trying to make their way to the base. Many Mister Gutsy robots have been reprogrammed by the Boomers to protect them, these robots can also break down and transport large objects quickly and efficiently, as stated by Loyal when returning to him after raising the bomber.
来自面前所知拥有最强火力的避难所，爆破者的装备极为精良。每个人都有一个哔哔小子3000型个人电脑，并精通于使用爆炸物。他们拥有火箭发射器，榴弹发射器，“胖子”战术核武器和一些用来抵挡任何入侵者的旧榴弹炮。还有一批被爆破者重新编程用来防御基地的“狂风先生”军用机器人，这些机器人同样也能快速装卸大型机械，比如帮助机械师罗伊打捞湖中的轰炸机。 Notes 注意：
[li]If the player has a good reputation and helps out enough with the Boomers, they will be offered the Volare! quest by Loyal. During the Second Battle of Hoover Dam, the Boomers will assist you and your chosen faction by bombarding the enemy from the plane. You can actually see the plane flying and dropping the bombs.[/li][li]如果玩家在爆破者中有着良好的声望并给他们提供了足够的帮助，罗伊将给你“起飞!”任务。在第二次胡佛大坝之战中，爆破者将用对敌高空轰炸的方式帮助你所效忠的一方。你将看到他们的飞机在空中飞翔和投弹。[/li][li]Despite the Boomers having never left Nellis Air Force Base in decades and the Courier being the first outsider they have let into their gates, NCR currency can be found in the Boomer's solar energy generator building.[/li][li]虽然数十年来爆破者从来没离开过内里斯空军基地而邮差又是第一个接触他们的外人，但你还是可以在他们的太阳能发电场中找到NCR货币。[/li][li]If you have a negative reputation with the Boomers, they can be extremely difficult to fight (but extremely useful because of the rare weapons they often carry), mainly due to the fact that they carry heavy weapons such as the missile launcher, and one or two Fat Men. The Boomers with Fat Men can be especially challenging, because of the frequency with which the Fat Man cripples limbs.[/li][li]如果你把爆破者惹毛了，他们会相当难打（都是很值，他们的武器通常都很稀有），因为他们都会用各种重武器比如火箭筒，还有一两个胖子，带胖子的爆破者尤其难打，因为胖子很容易造成残废（——||）。[/li][li]Despite The Boomers' relative hatred of all outsiders, becoming not just accepted or liked but Idolized is pretty easy. Saying nice things about The Boomers to Pete, turning in scrap metal to Jack, and completing their relatively easy quests/tasks all give you good amounts of reputation. The Boomers can be considered as the easiest faction to heighten your reputation with.[/li][li]虽然爆破者一般不喜欢外人，但把声望刷起来却很容易。在彼德面前多说好话，给杰克交废铁，做他们给的比较简单的任务都可以给你很高的声望奖励。和其他声望相比爆破者声望可能是最容易刷的。[/li][li]Pearl, the eldest Boomer and leader of the group, predicted that one day an Outsider would get past the defenses of Nellis and help connect the Boomers with the rest of the world, even if "only a little." The Courier can choose to kill Pearl or simply leave the Boomers alone. Also the Courier may help them raise a crashed Boeing B-29 Superfortress from the bottom of Lake Mead, which they will restore and fly.[/li][li]波琳，爆破者的长者和领袖，曾预言有一天将会有一个外人穿过内里斯基地的防御来帮助爆破者和外界交流，虽然只有“一点点”。邮差可以选择干掉波琳或者干脆不理爆破者。当然邮差也可以选择帮助他们从密德湖底打捞上一架坠毁的B-29超级堡垒轰炸机，他们会翻新和驾驶它。[/li][li]The Boomers are not hostile to the player in person when first encountered.[/li][li]爆破者不会在第一次遇见玩家时敌对。[/li][li]While having Veronica Santangelo as a companion, a Boomer will sometimes say "I can spot a Brotherhood spy from a thousand yards. Even the cute ones."[/li][li]如果玩家带着维罗妮卡，爆破者有时会说：“我在一千码外就可以瞄到一个兄弟会的间谍，就算是漂亮妹子也一样。”[/li][li]While having Raul Tejada as a companion, a Boomer will sometimes say "Never seen a ghoul this close up before. Not sure that I've wanted to"[/li][li]如果玩家带着劳尔，爆破者会说:“我从来没在这么近的距离上见过一个僵尸，这样做好吗？”[/li][li]While having ED-E as a companion, Boomers and even the Mister Gutsies might say, "I can take care of that robot problem for you. Just saying."[/li][li]如果玩家带着ED-E，爆破者，甚至基地里的狂风先生则会说：“如果你觉得那个机器人成问题就交给我，只需要你说一声。”[/li][li]Once the Boomers are turned hostile via combat (even after completing Volare! or with Idolized reputation anyway), they will never become friendly with you again.[/li][li]一旦爆破者因为战斗而敌对（就算完成“起飞！”任务或者把声望刷到了崇拜），他们就不能再变回友善了。[/li]
