Hello fellow vault dwellers I would like to propose some changes to the minute men faction management mainly there being no management system aswell as for other factions. At this point in time as you already know the only management options you do have are script prompts being the flare gun, artillery smoke, vertibird grenade and the synth relay grenade. This allows as you know support from your faction to aid you in your time of need, there is also the settlement management system. The settlement system allows you to resupply, get rich and defend your settlements but does little in terms of supporting the faction besides "calling for help".


This is where I propose this idea that could drastically change the way fallout 4 is played as well as enhance the player's experience in fallout. We know from previous titles and in this one factions have the ability to launch attacks, defend locations, manage supply and assign leaders. This is limited on script prompts but as you are aware in regards to the BOS, NCR and other factions they have managed to conquer the land and established new nations. How awesome would it be if this is possible for the commonwealth since this is the last title under licence where the player can shape the commonwealth into a nation it deserves to be. The player would have access to create squads, recruit (faction specific recruits), take control of land and assign patrol routes ect. This could also allow research and development to take place and start reclaiming the land to serve society once more aswell as allowing a massive boost to content. If these changes were to come into effect however I understand some programing and scripting would have to be carried out so in order to sell the idea I sugguest that this item could be a DLC addon or in a new patch.


What I ask from the community is simple please put forward some input into this regard (negative or postive)because this will be the only way we can further improve an already great game and establish a continued lonjevity for the fallout series.

I have the same idea. Plus in fallout 4 there are many intact facilities like fort strong ( mini nuke) and Saugus ironworks (forged) for examples. New mission about raid and claim those places for your faction. And yours facilities got raided not yours settlements.
