Solved Conqueror Faction Packs

[BelGarion]

Ok. So, I am getting ready to start a new run and thought I'd give a faction pack a whirl. But for the life of me I can't find a tutorial on how to run Conquest with a faction pack, how to set it up, etc. So how do I get a faction pack installed and working?

Most faction packs have basic instructions in description.

Simply put: get Asam sensors and holotape, build war planners desk in EMPTY settlement, pick faction pack.

Do note some faction packs have prerequisites

Well, if it's after getting the sensors and holotape, that usually rules out Sanctuary since Preston will have arrived after Concord. *hmm* Unless I don't rescue him right away, run to Sanctuary, set it up, run back to Concord, then rescue him. Or run out to ... Starlight and kill the molerats so I can claim it's workshop. Hmm. Anyway, cool. I didn't see any installation instructions on the Minutemen faction page. BoS did but didn't mention the empty settlement and war planner board part. So thanks. :D

was fairly deep in story with Enclave Liberator faction pack and hadn't visited Concord (avoiding Preston on purpose to curtail any homicidal impulses). set up output in Starlight. built up the place. took over Abernathy as a vassal.

With Conquest you *can* just "Execute" Preston. Just you have to leave Sturges alive, unfortunately, when you go to teleport to the Institute for the first time the game checks to see if he has the network scanner holotape that the quest giver (Ingram or Tinker Tom) gives you. I found that out the last time I did a Raider run and I couldn't use the network holotape. I had to resurrect Sturges *then* build the relay and then everything worked. >.<

The minuteman faction pack actually allows you to build the warplanners desk with the Quincy 5 in sanctuary (or at least it did for me on Xbox).

BoS, the prydwen must be in Commonwealth and you have to start the quest to take ft. Strong.

Institute you must be at the stage after meeting father I believe.

The conqueror framework does not include the execute perk, just an FYI for those using that.

Oh? I thought I saw an option to enable the Execute perk? I'll have to take a peek again to see.

The option is still in the holotape, but the actual perk does not seem to be implemented in the framework version
