So as a new player I am finding a couple of things a bit confusing in the settlement rules.
1.) So far I’ve built an armor stand and scavenging stand, which allows the drawing of a random card from those specific items, so I got the pack armor and a blood pack. In the 1st scenario I also found a western pistol, brought it back with my maintenance shed. So with that being said, I get these items to equip from the stores structure I believe but since I only have 1 I can only bring 1 item out, and I brought out the pack armor. Do the other 2 items get scrapped?
2.) How can I equip these items that I found, again? Do I have to pay for them using the caps I recieve from completing scenarios/finding junk? Or can I just purchase them using point cost of the item towards my force creation now? This could have a major impact on my following questions.
3.) How many stores do you build on average? I feel like the more equipment and items you get from structures/explore cards/Scenarios the more stores you need and is almost a necessity to build 1 store after every battle, but considering you only get 200 caps if you complete the mission progression is halted, but maybe it’s designed to feel that way? You all let me know.
4.) As for maintenance sheds. You can only bring 1 item back that isn’t on your default units AI card, from what I understand that includes the new items you brought with you from your settlement into the scenario. So this goes back to the concern of my previous questions. Don’t you need to keep up with this almost every time you get new items and gear, and purchase sheds all of the time?
5.) Can you make different lists of your force per scenario? Or should you be sticking with what you used from the start? Can you mix your faction? Have BOS and Enclave in your force? (Stupid I know haha) but I’m just wondering if that is completely against the rules somewhere and just couldnt find it or see it. This question is regarding standard campaign book as I dont have the Homestead expansion!
I know its alot of questions but I appreciate the answers in advance!
