Overview:
All faction workshop npcs are completely workshop functional and can be assigned to any job or object (including mod added), assigned to supply lines, moved etc. All NPC's use level list weapons and armors.
They are all true members of their respective factions: if you are enemies with that faction they will attack you, if you walk into their settlements with a member of an enemy faction they will attack them.
Factions:
Brotherhood
Unlocked following the completion of the quest Show No Mercy (the slaughter of Fort Strong); this seemed like a logical/lore-friendly point as this is when the side quest Feeding the Troops is unlocked (oppressing settlements to supply the Brotherhood resources).
Brotherhood classes are as follows:
Initiate - csRaider01Melee,BoSStandardOutfit, auto-assigns to Food Resources;
Scribe - csBoS01Ranged, BoSScribeFieldOutfit;
Knight - BoSPowerArmorRanged, BoSPowerArmorFurnitureKnight;
Paladin - csRaiderRangedOffenseHigh, BosSoldierOutfit, auto-assigns to Guard Posts;
Maintains supply lines with: Atom Cats, Civilians
Unlocked following the completion of the quest The First Step; you've just been made the General so naturally you can do whatever you want.
Minutemen classes are as follows:
Recruit - csRaiderRanged, Min02MinutemanOutfit2, auto-assigns to Food Resources;
Minuteman - RaiderRangedOffenseHigh, MinutemanOutfit, auto-assigns to Guard Posts;
Veteran - Default, MinutemanOutfit;
Dragoon - csPowerArmorMelee, LvlPowerArmorFurniture;
Maintains supply lines with: Railroad, Civilians
