📋 About This Mod

This mod adds stronger variants and much greater gear variety to the minutemen. It also makes the Minutemen get stronger as they gain more settlements. This is an esp replacer for Minutemen Overhaul 2 because that's a lot easier than

Like Everyone else on this site, I noticed that the minutemen are rubbish and dress like post-apocalyptic farmers no matter what you do. I didn't quite mesh with any of the other options for minuteman overhauls and I plan to use other mods to add things to settlements, so I decided to make my own using assets from other mod authors. This esp has the same name as the one from minuteman overhaul 2 as I built my mod from that. Not compatible with minuteman overhaul 2 in that only one mod will actually do anything.

This mod has three main features:

1: Minutemen now have more unique gear and power armour

2: The minutemen randomly selected by the game will be stronger the more settlements they control and as you advance in their questline

3: Minutemen now have distinct tiers with slightly different possible loadouts

MInutemen now have several variants and subvariants

  • []Minuteman wastelanders. These men and women are mostly farmers who got fed up with being pushed around by raiders and look similar to how minutemen appear in the base game. They are equal to raiders in the early game and if you level up without doing minutemen quests they will soon get outleveled. They spawn with no armour, and either pipe weapons or laser muskets

    []Minuteman Volunteers. They have a bit more training and proper uniforms and although they can take on low- mid level raiders they will again get outscaled by everything in the commonwealth. They have a chance to spawn with armour and decent weapons as well as pipe weapons.

    []Minutemen (no epithet). These guys can spawn with armour and aim as well as gunners. They can take on pretty much all raiders and can go toe-to-toe with gunners and have a decent chance of winning.

    []Professional minutemen. These spawn with good armour and consistently good weapons. They are usually stronger than gunners and on par with the Brotherhood of steel. They usually spawn with some kind of assault rifle, but have a low chance to spawn with power armour and a medium chance to spawn with a sniper rifle or missile launcher.

  • Veteran Minutemen. These are the strongest variant. They always spawn with a full set of combat armour and have the same variants as professional minutemen, but with slightly stronger weapons and a chance of spawning with better power armour. They have the same stats as elite brotherhood soldiers, but are still usually weaker as they have a lower chance of spawning in power armour

    The minutemen now have 8 tiers that define what variants can spawn. They start at Tier 0 and will level up as you progress though the game. Essentially, if you ignore the minutemen and don't do their quests while you do everything else, they will remain a bunch of scruffy farmers. If you obessively do their quests and ignore everything else, you'll find that there is a phase where the minutemen are overleveled. If you just play the minute
