[Fallout] Why does the Commonwealth have so many more suits of power armor than out west or in the Capital Wasteland?
gpt
There weren't many factions who desired or knew how to use them. The Brotherhood was well established on the West Coast and in DC, they picked any good armor out of facilities that they could.

There is also a far larger amount of experimental labs in the Commonwealth. There are a fair amount of special armor you can find that you find in labs.
