I'm new to the whole Conqueror thing, and I don't want to be a raider. I have Minuteman (Liberators) installed but a) How do I kick things off, and set that as 'my faction', b) Preston's not getting me to clear the Castle and c) When, exactly, is the best point to tell Jammer to do one so that I don't have to betray my character's morals, so to speak, and attack innocent settlers?

I'm having a hard time being able to make the Minutemen Liberator faction pack work as well, but the mod says once you complete Preston's first quest for Ten Pines and makes you the general you should be able to place a war planners desk in a settlement and make it an outpost for the Minutemen. If you don't want to play as a raider, you can just ignore Jammer entirely.

Slight confusion on my part - I thought War Planners Desk was for Conquerors and the Field Command Center was for Liberators. Based on further research, the Field Command Center is probably only for the BoS Liberator mod.

PS: the BoS Liberator Faction Pack mod has worked relatively well for me and, if you use the SKK Fast BoS mod, you can start as a BoS Liberator fairly early in the game. This mod has the Prydwen arrive immediately after the ArcJet quest.

Does this mod also stop Preston wanting me to free the castle 'till I've got outposts? 'Cause I've got an unusually high number of settlements and he's not told me to do that yet

sorry, hudmenu should read HUDFramework. Do you have that installed? The latest/last version is 1.0F on Nexusmods.
If you don't have that, download it, install it and you should then be able to see the HUD.

AFAIK if you don't kill Preston when you first encounter him, you need to get him as a follower, then after your affinity with him hits a certain point and you find enough settlements, the quest for The Castle triggers as normal.

i don't use liberator mods, so i dont know if that has an impact or not - my advice is play on with preston as your companion and see if/when he gets around to telling you about the castle.

This has been an issue popping up on Steam lately.

Some cases it had to do with We are the Minutemen mod which allegedly delays the quest.

Aha! So I need a Minuteman raidiant quest from him.

Which he's not giving me XP

Fixed! It was 'enough about the settlements' XP
