The Quincy 5 have been through a long, grueling trek since they were forced to flee their homes, and paranoia about @Karvoc and his raiders finding them again is high. As Marcy is fond of reminding us, keeping their location in Sanctuary Hills quiet is key to avoiding more depredations.
This will be a very minimal settler-count plan, being just the Quincy 5, Codsworth and perhaps one other companion/settler - no room for Old Paul or Lily and her friends here!. Secure homes defended by stout walls and automated defenses will be the order of the day, with no reliance on constant caravans that raiders can follow to find them. Planned to be compliant with only start-of-game plot options until hitting Level 3, this is going to be a tough exercise in trying to balance production and upkeep using only early-game plots and vanilla items.
