Just started outfitting my settlers and minutemen at the castle and got to wondering...

I know settlers only need one round of ammo to fire a different gun endlessly, but what about the "minutemen" that show up at the castle? Anyone know if I need to give them extra ammo?

I'm guessing that they act just like settlers, but well, I need to know for sure if I want to give them that shredding minigun and 1 round, or if it's better to let them keep their laser muskets and give the miniguns to the settlers...

On the same note, what about Ronnie Shaw? How does she act with ammo/new weapons?

Anyone know?

well, i thought that if you give anyone a weapon, you need to give them ammo for it. if you give them a minigun and 1 round, they will fire 1 round with it, and go back to their ghetto pipe weapon. that's what i thought, but i'm not always right.

to clarify, whatever weapon they start with (ghetto pipe gun) will fire endlessly on the ammo they have.

The Minutemen act like settlers at the Castle.

just need a round for whatever gun you give them

Ronnie Shaw is a trader who you can barter with, not trade, as such.
