[@snocone25]

As an Army veteran and avid Fallout fan I have to say that this is one of my favorite builds you have done. From the organization of rank in the sleep layout to the CQ desk you did a great job of capturing what I feel would be a very fitting military layout for this universe. I want to say thank you for all the work you put into your builds and videos. I have thoroughly enjoyed all you have done. I hope you are having a great holiday season and I look forward to your future posts. -Michael

WAIT an actual veteran

[@sabrelevine4241]

Kaiden Fisk legit right??

[@thebluehybrid756]

I’m surprised you like the BOS because they are enemy’s with the US remnants, the Enclave.

[@swadow11]

@@thebluehybrid756 I guess but BOS are closer to the idea of military and army at least maxon and his division look to protect the people and make it safer even if they do want to steal and bully people out of crops from what I remember the enclave weren't as nice but I stand to be corrected on that

[@talfuris644]

it took me 20 minuets to get you to realize you didn't build a bathroom during the stream, to the point where it looked like I was having a mental break down in the chat. never forget a bathroom or else chili night is hell. cheers to you oxhorn!

[@Stuartette]

Talfuris “chili night is hell” that fuckin threw me

[@Sarikiscool]

I counted. There are 29 beds including Maxon's. There are ~35-40 BOS on the Prydwn. However. This doesn't account for all of the Airport BOS or those roaming the commonwealth. The Police Station also has around 5 beds...

[@AFrostySn0wman]

Ethan Oswell They may have shifts, where some sleep at one point and the others at another point and they swap out, but idk

[@sgman9058]

Ethan Oswell or what about the Cambridge police station another idea is they sleep in vertiberds and out of Commonwealth camps.

[@headhunter-ty1zx]

Ethan Oswell recon/salvage teams don't do half a mission and see its 7:30 and run halfway across the commonwealth for a bed they're gonna sleep on the ground

[@mooreiche6547]

i think its like to be on a UBoot. In WW2 UBoots two man would have one bed together, is one of them sleeping the other is working so they dont have to sleep together.

[@onespringyboi2591]

Soldiers aren't all going to be sleeping at the same time they take shifts so not all soldiers are going to haven their own bed

[@tarheelmp20]

Dang oxhorn wish we had you building our barracks when I was on deployment can't tell you how many bombed out crap hole buildings I lived in. only thing you missed was the outdoor smoking post that was the nightly hang out for cigar smoking!

[@oxhorn]

Great idea!

[@raximousprime775]

Few notes, the knights are basic soldiers, not officers, the upper rooms would be more suited for paladins and above. Knight lancer isn't a rank, lancers are vertibird pilots, knights are soldiers. That flag is actually Lyons flag if I remember correctly, so I'm not sure they would have that up. Other then that it looks great, I'm not to sure I'd be able to build something like that but inspiration I guess

[@randy661]

Raximous Prime I'd seriously want to see you do better

[@daniellestryker6645]

Problem Cash Black Ops Clan dude calm down, he was giving valid criticism

[@raximousprime775]

Few notes for myself down the line, lancer knight is probably a rank as lancer do have ranks, and bos symbol with American stripes is still Lyons flag I'm still pretty sure

[@ronaldmcdonald2427]

Raximous Prime I think he meant paladins and paladin captains

[@truetocaesar5706]

Raximous Prime, the Bos flag w/ the stripes are actually the West Coast Bos flag. Which makes sense because the new elder “Idolizes” the West Coast Bos. The Lyons flag has a Lyon in the middle of the sword FYI. -10 Months late to comment-

[@Nightwing9597]

But wait… synth Shawn has a sitting animation. Why not these kids?

[@gavinramosiv6517]

That’s exactly what a synth would ask!

[@CrucialSlimm]

I literally thought of the exact same thing, I’m doing another play through and just did that mission

[@FREDDIE303]

Are the kids part of a mod

[@australisplays7615]

There must be some shooting annimation in Fallout 4. Theres an operator in Nuka world whose permently performing target practice on a Cappy statue

[@Arclight3983]

Yes?! Why doesn't a modder just take that coding for the shooting animation and put it on an animation mat?

[@benwillems8584]

There are 3 Brotherhood soldiers doing that not 100 meters away Wolf, because that takes work for the modder, and none of them appearantly thought about it.

[@helizaj2620]

I’ve got a mod for it? It has standing markers and shooting markers. Kind of annoying if you spend too much time near them tho

[@helizaj2620]

@@AugmentalGameplay think it’s included in a mod called animation markers I something like that. Idk I’ll double check when I next use my PC.

[@justins8484]

i would love to see a red rocket build thats themed for the lone wanderer just an idea but great vid as always

[@Lexilove2016]

The lone wanderer motorcycle isn't related to the player in fallout 3.

[@Scotttjt]

2:36 Lets be real: Thats something Cait would totally do just to annoy one of the soldier boys.

[@TheSigurdsson]

I built a BoS player home at the Red Rocket truck stop near Sanctuary on my BoS playthrough and a BoS "Museum", filled with desks, filing cabinets, etc at Abernathy farm. I like to think of that second settlement as the recruitment centre. Neither quite "works" however, but I have since added a lot more mods and have a lot more experience settlement building, so will be remodelling them soon. One thing I was proud of, however was my working Helipad at Red Rocket. I found that generally, the Vertibird transports tend to land near the fast travel marker for each settlement, so I build a raised area, placed some Vertibirds on it and left a blank space, where I placed the marker. Usually the Vertibird at least attempts to land somewhere near the Helipad. But I love your idea of a fixed barracks. Most of my BoS settlements are little more than field checkpoints. You've given me so many ideas to add more life to my BoS playthrough. Awesome work, Oxhorn :)

[@The_world_is_not_worthy_of_Him]

I can barely make a decent house, but here you are. Making _decorated_ living quarters. Hell, I had no idea that Place Everywhere even HAD a rescale mode

[@oxhorn]

I just learned that myself!

[@tazmania52d]

"I didn't want the soldiers to be spending their time playing games or gambling." What do you think we were doing with 90% of our time during the war? Working? :P Great videos by the way, I just subscribed last night and started binge watching your videos. For the officer room with the crappy view you could always turn it into a laundry room/showers. Most barracks have a built in laundry room, and how else are your officers supposed to wash their clothes? For the lower enlisted you could always replace some of the showers with a washer and dryer or two.

[@jakej8250]

tazmania52d not all have a laundry room my barracks had the laundry room 1/2 a mile away on other side of the camp and the showers were a mile away from them

[@tazmania52d]

"Most barracks have a built in laundry room".... Never said all barracks do. And your talking about in country, not garrison. The kind of base he built is more like a garrison base then one you'd find in the box.

[@jakej8250]

tazmania52d yes you are right but it's still funny remembering at 9pm finding someone asleep in the shower then waking them up covered in hair removal cream and cold water good times

[@jakej8250]

tazmania52d but I still remember the sound of one kid so desperate for sex he had sex with a plastic bottle

[@tazmania52d]

You didn't? I thought the bottle was a normal thing, the more you know I guess lol.

Thanks for watching!

[@TheNjweave05]

Your channel is growing... fast. Congrats!

[@oxhorn]

Thanks!

[@chill_fridge]

I’m not sure if I got a lucky bug, but I destroyed the BoS and for a long time I received the ‘You are not allied with this settlement” message at the airport. Then , one day, I was passing by, touched the workshop, and suddenly I was able to build. It’s a lot of fun having my main player home there, since the Brotherhood spawns there every once in a while and I get to have a nice little battle each time I come home. My settlement is super different from Oxhorn’s lol. I preder messy looking makeshift shelters. I placed a school bus with everything I need inside, and all the other space in my airport is either manufacturing equipment for butchering/recycling/nuke mine production or enclosed concrete cells filled with mole rat/insect/ghoul/super mutant/radscorpion traps.

[@valerieplaysgames4610]

Oxhorn, what are you doing there's another settlement that needs your help, here I'll mark it on your map lol

[@Pigness7]

put one of the children in a suit of power armor

[@jakz51]

It goes into stiffy mode.

[@SinnerBeta]

Good companion choice, I have Cait in my BoS playthrough as well, running around as a Brotherhood Knight in power armor. ROLEPLAYING ! Glad to see that I wasn't the only one that had the issue with no bathrooms or showers on the Prydwen - I wondered if on their journey to the Commonwealth they had to stop every day to send out search parties to check the nearby ruins for working canalization. Are you sure the BoS would want to have glass windows situated towards the city ? That's asking for some crazed raider sniper to take pot shots at them while they're eating or something. Although I have to ask if you though whether the barracks build by the BoS from premanufactured parts or is it a prewar building that was re-purposed by the Brotherhood once they arrived.

[@theclassysecuritron5766]

Ha! One of the best rooms in the barracks and doesn't even sleep in it. Now that's dedication. Ad Victorium !

[@balderknight7132]

Knight Lancer isn't a rank its literally just pilot and and knights(and all its subranks )are just soldiers whereas paladins are more or less officers

[@tylerellis9097]

3 years late but Lancer Knight is a Rank(lvl14) it goes Lancer Initiate Lancer Lancer Knight Lancer Sergeant Lancer Captain

Oxhorn isn't the citadel the headquarters the prydwen was just the finished airship after the many prototypes

[@devinirwin6481]

I love how we gives his settlers personalitys... He is one one the the best fallout players ever

[@Acirno]

I have stood guard duty in the barracks many times, hourly patrols, and occasional problem solving. Those were the days.

[@estebanyt5439]

I did see the brotherhood of steel troops training by shooting the barrels one time , so yes there is a animation for that.

[@nanotech1921]

I made the airport as a minutemen base to role-play that the minutemen were setting up base to spy on and eventually ambush the brotherhood, it was amazing

[@RiP-Phantom713]

One thing you could do to improve it a bit is too re-name the settlers to Brother knights, Scribes etc, and too make sure you don't get confused is put an 'S' in brackets next to there name to signify settler. Just an idea!

[@Nechrostriker4]

Josh Ellis you can do that?

[@blablubb4553]

GruffyD's Signs and Posters has some good BOS propaganda.

[@sniperwrecker7252]

Oxhorn I found a great mod for power! It's called settlement electricity overhaul and it includes this little generator that makes it to where lights will work without any pylons or conduits wherever you place them! It also works for other things too.

[@swadow11]

I know I'm mad late but you should get the mod " you can crash on the couch" makes all the couches beds but in the bed section so you still have not ql couches but you have also clean variations of them too real nice mod and I think really add to the realism of settlements that people would actually sleep on the couch and leaves you much more space for settlers

[@waah5901]

"This one has red rugs" *Shows room with Cait* lmfao

[@JoshuaSmith-fq8xy]

Cool build. That Cait part cracked me up! 😂

[@zauni-mm4wx]

nice build Ox saw the stream without the place anywhere mod, was hoping youd get it sorted, and you did! nice work pal!

[@joetylerdale]

Sassy Cait, now standing on the back of GI Joe, ROTFL! To quote from Cait; "Heh. I dunno. Seemed quite the performance from where I was standin'."

[@JimJim...]

Great build. I agree that for how big the BoS presence seems to be in the Commonwealth, they have very few beds (not to mention a total lack of lavatories) aboard the Prydwen. I've come to believe that they sleep in shifts and share beds, but still, bunkbeds would have been a better choice.

[@PogausorusRex]

Very nice, works so well with the BOS. Great vid.

[@wetmicrowavevlogs6603]

Nice build as always Ox I did something kinda like this build but I made the area a BoS vehicle depot with tanks, Apcs, etc

[@GrapplerS10]

You need to do a power armor warehouse for this character as well. Show off all the various rank paints. I've managed to collect all of them but elder on my PS4. Really loved your main character build of one. Would think it pretty fitting this one have something similar.

[@melcombrowne-tozer549]

You should use the barricades off thematic and practical for the entrance of the airport and the guard walls

[@ichijofreedman]

I love this, it has inspired me to build my own barracks in Boston

[@callmenorman631]

I use to think ya I'm pretty detailed in my builds and I do think of what the settlers would be able to have in such a settlement. I watch your videos and now I know I have a long way to go

[@mrhandy.hunter8716]

Amazing is this going to ever be a downloadable mod? This is 10/10 work really nice and lore friendly...

[@looking4afix]

A Nice touch would be to use a mod to give name to the settlers. And you said that kids don't sit on the floor, I saw synth Shaun sit on the workshop house of sanctuary, same place where vaultec rep sits to wait you in his first time there.

[@breadpilled2587]

[@Nilpherd17]

I’m a new subscriber! I love watching your Fallout videos, especially the settlement ones! Keep up the good work! 😁

[@papataz4443]

an airport settlement with BOS playthru makes a ton of sense. People will flock to be nerby bases even if those are temp bases. They will sell food, entertainment, counterban, etc. Some might be recruit hopefulls. Gouls that spawn could be considerd as second class and get asigned to mediocer jobs.

[@jodypasseno6065]

I get the impression that the BoS is less an invasion force, but set up more as a Peace Keeper force. Think real life Kosovo or Syria. Forward Operating Base Boston Airport, with near side security and far side checkpoints, and area patrols. This build is really pretty awesome in that context.

[@paladinmaguireofbos3347]

I know I'm 5 years late, but damn is this a cool settlement.

Amazing build Oxhorn!! Thank you for taking the time to share it. I was wondering if you will be uploading it's Blueprint to your nexus Sharable Settlement Blueprints list? Would love to pop it in my playthrough!

[@dirtydan693]

This is awesome but i think a power armour garage would be cool. I know there's one on the prydwyn but with all the knights on the ground it would be cool to have one

Only critique is that with a BoS base, your guards should be in T60 PA.

[@oxhorn]

I suppose. Some of the knights are in PA at the Boston Airport, and others are just in the uniforms.

Is hazing okay in the BoS? If so, is it okay to weld a BoS initiate into a basic suit of PA?

[@j.r.warren5794]

Hey Oxhorn, just a suggestion. I think maybe you want to put a spoiler alert on this because you have the main story line walking around behind you as you show this off.

[@Dgsbeast]

You messed up the ranking system the nights would be in the beds down stairs and the Paladins would be upstairs but other than that it's great

[@MegaJDizzO]

For the shooting range, is there a mat to have them stand guard? It wouldn't make them shoot, but could add to the immersion of it.

There's 8 on the platforms and 2 in the private quarters that's 10 on prydwn actually.

[@joshuahales641]

Hey Oxhorn, just curious, I don't know if this has been answered already somewhere but I wonder why you didn't use the concrete tileset for the bathroom/shower building too. That's the only thing that stood out to me the rest of the settlement is epic.

the reason why the pridwin has few beds is because the main HQ of the bos is the citadel in fallout 3

You could have used the bathroom stalls around the showers as well, it doesn't make much sense having the showers completely exposed if the toilets have stalls around them

[@diablog1621]

Deamons well in the military showers and toilets are exposed and since the BoS are military remains then it makes sense

[@ded2z405]

Portal2master I get that but he has the toilets with stalls around them anyway

[@nicholascross3557]

It may be a barracks in name, however, the fact that there are men, women and even children together might call for a hint of privacy in the showers.

[@VladProdigious]

Funny bit with Cait randomly walking and ending up on the back of one of the soldiers doing push-up's. On one hand we can say that hey, this is totally in Cait's nature to make things a little tougher for others. But people do in real life actually practice this activity in gyms that are frequented by Strong Men, Weight Lifting Sports Competitors and Body Builders, although they do not stand on each others' back. they take turns sitting on each other's back when doing push-ups, and it's done with the specific purpose of using simple methods to add more weight to the exercise, thereby forcing muscle growth and greater strength. Obviously this is not a common procedure in gyms where average guys and women work out. ....................................................... On a side note: I've practiced this method myself back in the day before I became disabled and therefore still was training budo, a group of various Eastern Martial Arts schools. The method is also still an integrated part of the normal training routine in dojos* all over Japan - and, I imagine, in other countries of the Far East - where they still honor the old ways where principles such as strong discipline and continually forcing yourself to the limit are held in high regard. * Dojo = Gym or Training Hall or House.
