Commonwealth Minutemen Vs East Coast BOS

I like to think the BoS forgets that the Minutemen really aren't as weak as they seemed. Especially if you think about their experience of facing down perhaps hundreds of power-armored raiders, mercenaries, and wildlife, mostly with ballistic weapons and laser muskets in their prime, and even in the tail-end of it.

The Chad Minutemen vs Virgin BoS

BOS: got modern equipment
Minutemen: I own a musket for home defense,just as the founding fathers intended

Minutemen + A-10 Warthog + Minutemen Radiant Squads + You and What Army + Sim Settlements 2 + any tacticool modern armor and weapon replacer = The Ultimate Faction

minutemen in lore, are just the best faction ever, like damn, wasteland heroes decided to rebuild a new world

Most underdog faction there ever was

Preston was kinda hot ngl 🥵

The Minutemen don’t care if your ghoul, synth or even a mutant

Just as long as you play nice and don’t hurt nobody

Ewery body gangsta untill u get the Botomless Laser musket

Virgin BoS: Power armor is rare and only the ones who prove themselves are allowed to use it.

CHAD Minutemen: We can deploy an entire regiment of soldiers in power armor and most of them are recently-recuited farmers.13
Were did we found it? in the trash obviously.

yes but enclave here where is your power armor

I got to be honest I think anyone who likes new Vegas either likes or really wishes the minutemen has been a better faction. But they only get like 2 actual names characters that are part of their quest line not to mention their is very little run up. Like rather than making the first few mintment quests like proper quest line quests with a story. They could have easily had a couple quests where you built up statuary or even concord as a new outpost for the minutemen then sent you to places like Abernathy and Tenpines and starlight and had those three locations have more reasoning. Like Starlight was on a road intersection that lead from Sanctuary into the city and had plenty of scrap metal to fortify a large staging ground. Abernathy farm could have been given the lore reason for supplying the new army with food and Tenpines bluff was good vantage point form where they could see any major raider or gunner threats coming from the south. Then after that they could have opened you to the radiant system as making every single settlement in the game have a unique quest would have been a pain. But consider the minutemen are the build it yourself faction. It would have been cool to have a bit more history. Could have had the Tenpines family have been former minuetmen or even black Abernathy or even have it so as you claim those settlements you could put up the minuteman banner and maybe after some time a couple minutemen would start coming around. Could even bring in like a few names elite groups like some rangers than come down from the north and find you at sanctuary and test you out as their new commander and if you prove worthy they agree to serve and will join at the castle. Then maybe we could get some named minutemen in Diamond city or you hear word of a empty settlement that set up their own radio beacon and put down roots to try and help but weren’t prepared maybe it could be like the coop or croup manor or something. Some former minutemen who heard the radio call and attempted radio in but it got picked up by gunners and now their under siege and you have to go in and break the siege and save them and if you succeed then rather than another empty settlement croup manor maybe could get some preplaced minutemen with some unique dialogue about you coming to save them. Even the Longs imagine if after you help fix up sanctuary and Mr Long talks to you and thanks you that you could start a quests with the pair of them that sees Mr long get some confidence back and they could become the founding family of new Sanctuary and maybe they forms bit of a new trade hub in the north where capital wasteland traders could arrive in the commonwealth or something along that line or even make it more inline with the minutemen and lone wanders who saved them and turn the town and vault 111 which is kind of sad goes unused in the base game after you leave even though it’s like the prefect starting base for the minutemen. Into like back lines retreat for minutemen where they can go to get equipment and also recover after seeing actions like the airport is for the Brotherhood. Cause it never really made sense to me that one the minutemen have like no proper quests between rescue and taking the castle nor that they never really have a gathering the forces section. Like the other factions do. Like institute even though their go against their entire doctrine of staying secret still build up to the big moment. The brotherhood also they send you to fort strong and to the glowing sea and into the institute before hand as a secret agent. The minutemen just make you general and call it day. Feel like a lot of solid development was missed by not giving them more of run up.

Minutemen literally needed an MC Saviour to revitalize their faction from the brink of death.

I know making fun of Preston is popular, but the Minutemen really are the best faction in Fallout 4.

Oh no! Hard work to actually build up a faction!

The Virgin Arthur Maxon Simp vs. The Chad Owyn Lyons Supporter

"NOOOOOO YOU CAN'T JUST USE TECHNOLOGY TO BEFNEFIT EVERYONE IN THE WASTELAND"

"Random Vault Dweller, take this Power Armor, and go get your father's water purifier working. Clean, fresh water is the right of all people."

Really wish more was done with the Minutemen, like there was a way to upgrade their gear as a hole, give orders that can help the faction like "recuite more troops", "Help x settlement", "muster x Troops at x settlement" and etc.

Just something that made you actually act like the General of the minutemen.

Preston Garvey(Michael Jordan voice): “If you’re doing chems, stop it. Get some help and save a settlement. The Minutemen need you”. (This video is sponsored by the Takahashi noodle stand) lol 😂. Seriously though the Minutemen is an awesome faction & Preston is a cool character. Yeah it is flawed but it’s just so much fun customizing everything for this faction. I put a lot of hours in every single settlement and I always enjoy it.

Virgin "You must obey my totalitarian yet incompetent rule and submit all your technology to my pseudo military force with lots of guns but little skill" vs Chad "I have endured Depression and Trauma from extremely violent and horrifying events but still believe in the inherent goodness of Humanity and will raise a competent military out of popular militias defending their neighbours"

You’re telling me to choose an arrogant edge lord bs. A useless NCR reject with depression. Where is the chad here?

Strongest Brotherhood fan (glorified raiders in Power Armour) vs weakest Minutechad (has windup toy gun, still defends settlement despite collapse of his organisation and probably hella PTSD)

Betahood of Steel vs Minutechads

The thing about the minute man is you can't identify them lol they can be even inside the brotherhood or the enclave waiting to be called this is why I like them

liberty prime a W but BOS kinda stinky

The real ones know how to not kill any faction but the institute

Minuteman and Followers of the Apocalypse could be a great combination.

Brotherhood: “We got an airship! That’s how they’ll know we’re superior!”
Every faction in Fallout 4 that’s enemies with the BOS during their main quest: “ok but consider the following *hydrogen explosion*”

the minutemen is the most interesting faction because you build it up, you don't just do a quest and boom you are high rank and have the best weapons and armour, no you actually have to put in effort that pays off in the end

the ironic thing being that Preston "another settlement needs your help" Garvy was the last minuteman until you rolled out of your cryotube. Also the fact that vertiburds are paper mache for some reason.

Yeah but I fucking hate Preston Garvey

when the brotherhood arrived to the fort, their vertibirds got wiped out by rocket turret spam before they even landed

The Minutemen proves Trevor Philip's quote:

The bigger the gun, the bigger the pussy.

I don't mind Preston's radiant quests.

BOS: “Reeeeee! Synths might threaten my techno dictatorship! We must destroy them all!”

Minutemen: “‘Ate Tyranny, ‘Ate Raiders, Love me Flag, Love me Country, Love me People, Simple as

It is rather for us, the living, we here be dedicated to the great task remaining before us that, from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here, gave the last full measure of devotion that we here highly resolve these dead shall not have died in vain; that the nation, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

Imagine if we got to send our troops on radiant quests that would normally be easy and then do the hard stuff ourselves.

Let’s be honest the Minutemen should’ve been the canon ending

Why have I never heard of the Minutemen and the railroad working together? Together they could literally unite all of Boston in peace and prosperity.
Railroad: has synths that need a place to stay
Minutemen: Has MULTIPLE SETTLEMENTS that are in need of populating and a CASTLE that needs defending

BOS: Wannabe authoritary government that fully depends on it's own machines or they will litterally lose
Minutemen: Musket.

BoS is even worse than the Institute. At least the Institute have a plan for the Commonwealth, the BoS no, they just want to collect technology, rob settlements and kill innocent ghouls, synths and supermutants. And let me tell:
Erickson (Far Harbor) > Maxson
Nick Valentine > Maxson
Hancock > Maxson
Curie > Maxson

Minutemen ending was the first thing ending I got

You hate the minutemen because of the non-stop settlement, i grind those settlement quest for the XP

We're not the same

If the Enclave (the Reformist kind, not Purist) met the minuteman, do you think they would get along or just simply fight each other?

Saving the people of the commonwealth for eventual NCR control

The minutemen wouldve been my favourite faction if done properly image retaking quincy from the gunners and starting a whole questline of establishing it back into a city like diamond city or something

The minutemen get even more ridiculous when you realize that their general runs a factory capable of building a robot army and have several surviving Institute scientists working for them after they blew it up.

The Minutemen Prove you don't need to have a faction written with ten layers of complex ideals and idiotic goals to make them likeable.

The minutemen will rebuild America unthreatening the minutemen republic

A group with highly powerful technology gets defeated by a group of hillbillies and farmers

Average bos fan vs minuteman enjoyer
