State of War

I am stuck on the Capture a gunner outpost step of the quest. I did recapture all my settlement from the Gunners after I learned the assault system. The scouting report returns a location of (...). I am wondering if I reacted to early and will need to roll back to the beginning of chapter 3 and wait until I get this quest before recapturing the settlements.
 
A good deal of people are experiencing problems with State of War. Myself, everything seemed to be going just fine until the last part of the quest with three territories. The last one simply won't clear so the quest can close down. All assaults were super simple to fire off, and win. No problems at all till that point.
 
I just loaded from an old save and see what happens this play through. I will wait until i get the missions before I make any assaults.
 
I'm stuck here too. I can win the battles but at the end of the assault in both settlements I've yet to recapture wont let me complete the quest. at the end of battle it tags the workbench as a remaining enemy. as well as a random spot off to the side.. can anyone help with this?

I wonder if they spawned under the ground. In my game the enemy would sometimes spawn a significant distance from the location. Sometimes they were vanilla enemies who happened to sorta kinda be nearby and needed killing too.

The same thing was happening to me at scrap palace. I don't think it's them spawning under the map in this case because a "kah" command did nothing for me. As far as I can tell the markers are just straight up targeting nothing - I just had to ignore the area for the rest of the playthrough. You can try just waiting for a while in real time (like 10 minutes). Like MisterKen said, sometimes the reinforcements spawn very far away from the territory so it could be possible that the markers got de-synced with the NPC's and they're still on the way. But I'm really not sure, and that was something I didn't have the patience to test.
 
Another thing that has worked, though whether it is relevant or this particular case, was to assault another random location. I've cleared more than a few markers (usually quest related) by that method! lol

No it has tagged the workbench. I even used place anywhere to move the workbench and the marker moved with it.

The second tag has nobody attached to it. I use the Cross Atom mask which marks anything with a heartbeat, including things through walls or underground like mirelurks underground before they pop.

Also the warriors I have with me dont try and attack either of the markers..

no dice.. I fast traveled to another outpost, and as soon as I did that the quest markers all disappeared and it didn't register that I completed or even failed the quest. It just vanished from the quest log... I assaulted a territory afterword. that worked fine but still no fix for previous assault and no way to advance forward in state of war....

That is in fact a success. State of War is a controller so it will stay for quite a while waiting for other things to happen, different quests and timers, etc etc. If the markers disappeared, that's actually a success. Mostly(R). You have a lot left waiting for you based on timers and other things and they will kick off soon.

oh, sorry meant the quest for the assault itself disappeared. Not the "state of war" quest line.

Yes I was having long wait times for enemy reinforcements as well. If you go to war settings and change the distance for assaults to "within range" rather than "everywhere" it also effects enemy reinforcements. So instead of saying "enemy reinforcements coming from... (destination)" it just says "enemy reinforcements have been spotted in the area" much quicker. I waited for a while and nothing. Fast traveled away and my Kingsport lighthouse assault quest just vanished. I tried another assault just on a territory, completed that just fine. but with this bug effecting both of the remaining gunner outposts left on my map im stuck on state of war with no way to advance..
