Once upon a time, the Minutemen community was large and respected among ordinary people. But, there was one episode after which the Minutemen disbanded... it is known as the "Quincy Massacre". Once, mercenaries attacked Quincy, and the residents signaled to the Minutemen, but only Hollis’s squad, which included Preston Garvey, came to the rescue. The forces were unequal, and many died. After this event, the reputation of the Minutemen was undermined.
Preston Garvey was left in charge of a small detachment of 20 people who were looking for a place where they could hide. Within a few days, their squad was reduced to 5 people. And it is unknown how many of them would have remained if the main character had not met them.

First step

After arrival Preston Garvey V Sanctuary Hills, he will ask you to help him restore the Minutemen organization in the Commonwealth. To do this, he will give you the first task - to arrive at the settlement Tenpines Bluff, and help its residents so that they join the Minutemen. Upon arrival at the settlement, one of the settlers will ask you to deal with a gang of raiders who occasionally terrorize the settlement. The gang is in the Corvega car assembly shop.
Corvega car assembly shop: kill the raiders
The workshop is located in Langsington, which was captured by raiders. The entrance is guarded by turrets and several raiders. Inside the workshop are a couple of dozen raiders and a turret. In the basement of the workshop there is the leader of the raiders, surrounded by turrets. In addition, there are about one and a half dozen raiders on the roof of the workshop. To complete the quest you must kill them. After clearing the workshop, you will be asked to turn in the quest in the settlement.

Return service

When you reach Abernathy Farm, talk to Mr. Abernathy. He will tell you about the raiders who killed his daughter and took her medallion, and will ask you to return it, adding that the raiders who killed her are hiding on satellite station "Olivia". At the station there are raiders, dogs and a named raider in power armor. After killing everyone, pick up the medallion on the lower floor of the station.
Report success to Blake Abernathy.

Assault on Fort Independence
Soon after restoring Senctuary Hills and helping the Minutemen, Preston Garvey will tell you about Fort Independence, and that it used to be the main base of the Commonwealth Minutemen, until the “monster from the Sea” destroyed the base and the Minutemen. Now, Preston Garvey is determined to get him back. This is how the quest starts.
Meet the Minutemen outside the castle walls
Follow the marker and you will reach a small diner near the location Lock, where the remnants of the Minutemen gathered.
Develop a plan of attack
Before attacking the Castle, the Minutemen will offer you three plans of attack:
- Storm the main entrance head on
- Split and attack from both sides
- Lure enemies from behind the Castle walls and ambush them
Having chosen a plan, attack the Castle. There's a whole lot living in the castle Bolotnikov. Try to aim for their face, as the Swampmen's body is protected by a Chitinous shell, which protects them well from damage. Try not to let them get close to you, their claws do a lot of damage. There are many swamps, most of them are buried in the ground, and they will pop up as you approach or a certain number of their fellows die.
Destroy the swamp eggs
After destroying all living swamp creatures, you will have to destroy all clutches of swamp creatures eggs. They are located in the castle courtyard, in the castle rooms and on the walls. Be careful, bogworts are often waiting near the clutches, buried. Destroy the eggs quickly, because... they can hatch into swamp cubs (they resemble radcockroaches in appearance)
Kill the swamp queen
During the destruction of the eggs, or after that, suddenly, from the water, through the destroyed wall of the Castle, that very “monster” will enter. They will turn out to be Uterus of Bolotnikov. The uterus is a very strong enemy. It deals massive melee damage, spawns swamp babylings that attack you, and spits poison that can kill you in a couple of seconds even with full health. Try to stay inside the castle premises, occasionally looking out of cover to shoot the Matka. In one of the rooms you can find a Launcher and a couple of missiles that can help you destroy the enemy.
One way or another, you will destroy the Swamp Queen. Finish off the cubs and proceed to the next part of the quest.
Meet the Minutemen in the yard
Preston Garvey will gather all the survivors in the courtyard, thank you for your help and ask you to turn on the radio transmitter located in the center of the Castle so that people in the Commonwealth will know about the return of the Minutemen.
Turn on the radio transmitter
To turn on the radio transmitter, you need 10 units of Energy. Build 2 large generators, connect them together and run a cable to the radio transmitter. Then turn it on so that the signal begins to broadcast throughout the Commonwealth.
Talk to Preston Garvey
When you're done, talk to Preston Garvey. He will thank you for your help. As a reward, you will receive covers and a Castle - as a new location for arrangement. The quest is over
Old Guns
The quest starts some time after completion" Assault on Fort Independence". Talk to Preston Garvey and he will tell you about a certain Ronnie Shaw, another surviving Minuteman who is waiting for you in the castle and awaiting a meeting with the general (that is, you).
Return to the Castle
Returning to the castle, find the new “tenant” of your fortress - Ronnie Shaw.
Talk to Ronnie Shaw in the Castle
After talking with her, you will learn that under the castle there is a huge arsenal of the Minutemen, which was blocked on the day when the Swamp Queen attacked it. Follow Ronnie to the descent into the armory, enter construction mode and remove the rubble. A tunnel will appear in front of you. Go into it.
Infiltrate the Castle's arsenal
Be careful when entering the tunnels. There are a lot of mines and various traps in the location. Plus turrets. Move forward slowly and carefully. Having reached the large hall, he will wake up Sergeant- a security robot that guarded the arsenal even before the attack of the Swamp Queen. Upon waking up, the robot will begin to attack you.
This is a very serious opponent. Try not to go into the hall, stay in the corridor, and shoot carefully. Better from energy weapons. Be careful - volleys of his missiles can kill you almost instantly. Ronnie and your partners are immortal, so let them distract the Sergeant from you. After killing him, move on. You will find the corpse and suicide notes of the last Minutemen general, learn about his unenviable fate and reach the arsenal.
Talk to Ronnie Shaw
The arsenal has a lot of weapons, mines and other things. You can take everything for yourself. In addition, take the drawing of a new defensive weapon - it will be an artillery installation. Talk to Ronnie - she will ask you to create such an installation, install it in the Castle and test it.
Place an artillery mount in the castle and assign an operator
Enter construction mode, select the column Special. In it, select an artillery installation and build it. Then assign one of the Castle residents to it.
Find Ronnie Shaw
After building the cannon, talk to Ronnie. She will give you signal lights and ask you to check the functionality of the gun.
Get to the goal
Get to the goal using the marker. You need to get to the diner where you met with the Minutemen before storming the Castle.
(Optional) Leave the radio on the Freedom wave
Turn on the radio on Radio Liberty and listen to it
Throw a smoke bomb into the target area
Select the checker that Ronnie gave you, throw it at the indicated area and move away to a safe distance. Enjoy the fireworks.
Talk to Preston Garvey
Return to Preston and report everything. He will thank you, Ronnie will begin to live in the Castle, and you will now be able to build an artillery installation in your settlements. The quest is completed.
Expansion
Expansion- one of the recurring Minutemen quests that gives Preston Garvey.
The essence of the quest is that you need to get to a certain settlement, clear this settlement from enemies - raiders, ghouls, super mutants, etc. Having cleared the territory, in this settlement you will have access to Workshop. Build in a settlement Recruitment Beacon. Return to Preston Garvey and turn in the quest.
After this, after some in-game time, settlers will arrive in this locality and begin to live there.
The settlement is threatened by enemies
The second type of repeatable mission for the Minutemen.
Having reached a certain settlement, a settler will run up to you and tell you that from time to time the settlement is attacked by enemies - ghouls, raiders, super mutants, etc. And these enemies attack from some place. Follow the marker to the location, clear it, killing all the enemies in it (often they will be marked with markers) until the status of the location in your Pip-Boy becomes [CLEARED] and a corresponding notification appears. Return to the settlement where you were given the task and turn it in.
Settlement defense
From time to time, you will receive signals for help from settlements that belong to you, that the settlement is under attack.
Move to the indicated settlement and get ready. After some time, enemies will attack the settlement. Your task is to kill everyone and prevent the death of all the settlers. After the last enemy is killed, the task will be completed.
If you strengthen the settlement well - build walls, defensive structures, turrets, traps, etc., then the chance of an attack on the settlement will be significantly reduced.
If you do not respond to a signal for help for a long time, the settlement will be attacked successfully, you will be counted as an uncompleted task, and the settlement will no longer be yours.
