📋 About This Mod

Let the turf war begin!

I have no idea how much of an affect this might have on actual gameplay, but I couldn't shake the idea of territorial raider gangs attacking each other on sight. This should hopefully allow for the possibility of randomly stumbling into just such a turf war.

It started as a personal project for Raider Gangs Extended to learn how to use RobCo Patcher and quickly evolved to incorporate a bunch of different raider mods.

       The file for Raider Gangs Extended is still a Work In Progress

I haven't had time to figure out the gang to which each Named NPC belongs yet. All Named NPCs in RGE are currently part of their own separate faction which is Friendly to all other factions so their gang doesn't slaughter them.

Friendly made the most sense to me because it might feel like unique NPCs would be respected (or feared) enough to not be attacked on sight by anyone but the lowly vanilla Raiders if they happen to be in an area with multiple factions. Friendly also means they should still join the fun if nearby meat sacks are attacked, and vice versa.

They will eventually be added to their respective factions. 

==================================

If you're not using 4estGimp Edit - Raider Gangs Extended, I recommend grabbing the file for Capital Wasteland Raider Pack if you want to see Raiders fighting each other with any regularity as its raiders spawn alongside the vanilla Raiders.

I'd also recommend the files for Unique Raider Gangs and Patrols 1 and Unique Raider Gangs and Patrols 2 as those mods each create 4 unique gangs and custom factions (8 total if combined). Each gang/faction from those mods covers a fairly large territory, and they are hostile to vanilla raiders.

Ack-Ack's Harlequins, Rags Pirates, Revere Beach Raiders and Toms Bruisers are very good in their own right and should be a staple for any Raider overhaul setup in my opinion. Those gangs are fairly isolated, however, and adding my custom factions may not have much of an impact as they may not actually come in contact with the other factions, especially without Raider Gangs Extended.

They were included as part of the effort to learn RobCo Patcher, so they're included as part of the mod. At a minimum, their respective files will allow them to join the fun if one of the other factions happens to stumble into their territories.

==================================

A few of the included mods had NPCs renamed to reflect their respective mods & factions

Ack-Ack's Harlequins:

[*]Raiders are re-named to "Harlequin"

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Solid download-to-endorsement ratio (16,703 downloads, 85 endorsements) shows it's being used and appreciated.
  • Fills a real gap: makes raider gangs actually fight each other instead of teaming up.
  • Works with several popular raider mods, so you get more bang for your buck.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only covers four mods so far — if you use other raider packs, you're out of luck.
  • Last updated July 2024 — might not be updated for newer raider mod versions.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Fallout 4 players who run multiple raider overhaul mods and want more realistic gang warfare. If you're tired of all raiders being buddy-buddy, this adds the chaos you crave. Skip if you only use one raider mod or prefer gameplay changes over faction tweaks.
