    The whole soldiers farming thing goes back before the romans. Most civilizations have required soldiers to produce their own food at permanent installations. With the romans, it was said they used their shovels far more than their swords, both for road- and defensive-construction, as well as farming.

    From the beginning until now (I am level 51), I ignored settlement building, The Minutemen, and, of course, the annoying Preston. I used Red Rocket to dump my loot. When I unlocked The Castle recently, everything changed. I loved renovating The Castle, I love establishing and helping other settlements, and I love Preston. Out of all the factions, the Minutemen stand above all others as truly worthy of defending.

    One of the rooms you used as Minutemen barracks was the one I used for my ''General's Quarters'', the room's actually my player home, I got a bed there, my Minutemen PA displayed at a power armor station, a bed on the side, a table I imagine my character uses to do paper work and all that you usually need for a player home! I put quite the effort into decorating the room, showing the love for detail I had while working on it.

In _My_ game my character, being General of the Minutemen, dresses them in the pre-war military gear, and arms them with Combat Rifles, to honor her dead husband who, if he were alive, and in the position She is, would do the same thing, and train them the way he was trained when he himself was in the army. You know, a bit of Nate's legacy to the Commonwealth. #ArmyWifeShit

    • @nobah8131
      @nobah8131 3 года назад

      @@shahnazfiaz2015 It plays VERY well with it. Also, don't be afraid of blackouts. The dizzyness is your inner ear, trying to adjust to you moving, while you are actually standing still - same as the "travelling sickness" some people get, while riding a car or a plane. Worst that could happen is, you get sick and have to stop playing for a while. The good thing about this is, that
      1.) you can train yourself to be better at this! Every play session you will build up resistance, until you don't get sick anymore.
      2.) There is a (of course) a Programm for this! Try "Natural Locomotion" on Steam, it uses you natural arm (and feet, if you have the periphery) movements, to move your character in VR. You basically jog in place and swing your arms. This tricks your inner ear into believing "oh okay, I guess we are moving! No more barfing!" Very good 3rd party software.
      Hope I could help you!

Also you have more room to do whatever you need when you're not working within a walled in area..

    That is awesome that you used vanilla stuff to repair the Castle. Really helps us console players. I also love the way you did it, where it's very minimal.

    When I saw The Cask of Amontillado reference I laughed so hard. Wasn't expecting it.

    I know this is really old but if you still play you should check out the military clutter mod if you haven’t. That’s one of my go to mods for the castle.

      It may sounds silly, but
      I start playing Fallout 4
      just in this year, in 2023.
      I wish I played it sooner,
      but was busy w/ Skyrim. :)
      Till now, I do like Fallout
      better than Skyrim ES V.

    You inspired me to create a little base at red rocket I’m still working on it but this really made me think like you did one day one day this will be a safe haven for travelers and minutemen

    Rewatch as I replay. I've got some mods like the castle wall patch though in vanilla repaired them with concrete. I did always like the real world lore lookup you did. The barracks solving the game mechanic issue of needing bed space. My own take is a bit different but I do like many of the things you did. For instance adding the gun range.

    Excellent video, it certainly inspired me to make some changes to my castle in the game.

    I really like how the back room is built into the interior of the wall.
