📋 About This Mod
Version 1. 01 Uploaded
now the patrols are always on the move, also added 4 new patrol groups so they will cover much more areas much faster
3 unique travelling merchants working for the Minutemen, they will visit almost all of your settlements on a weekly schedule
The short description says it all! just know that when i was making this mod, the assumption was that you have at least 4-5 settlement under your banner so if you install this mod even before saving the minutemen from concord, it's gonna look ridiculous! a group that has gone extinct patrolling empty settlements?...
oh and BTW, the colonels can call minutemen to assist them (spawn minutemen) so if the group runs into a pack of ghouls or raiders,they won't be outnumbered...
Adds 4 Minutemen caravans that patrol roads between settlements, each with a Colonel, lieutenant, doctor, dog, and guards. They respawn and are protected, making them useful for both friendly and hostile players. A simple NPC addition for Fallout 4 with 324 endorsements.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved (324 endorsements) and well-downloaded (7,902 downloads)
- Adds life to the wasteland with patrols that make sense for the Minutemen
- Protected NPCs mean they won't die easily, so your patrols stick around
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2021, so it might not be compatible with newer game patches or mods
- No mention of compatibility with other settlement or NPC mods, so conflicts are possible
- The description is vague on how the patrols are integrated, so you might need to test in-game
For Fallout 4 players who want more immersive Minutemen presence without overhauling the faction. Great for settlement builders who like seeing patrols on the roads. Skip if you're looking for major gameplay changes or if you use mods that heavily alter Minutemen or road spawns.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager, install this like any other mod and enable it in your load order.
- Since the mod adds patrols, you might see them near roads—fast travel to a settlement and look around to spot them.
- If you're hostile to the Minutemen, the protected status means they won't die, so you can't wipe them out—plan accordingly.
