About this mod
Croup Manor in a 'Fort' configuration. Easily defensible. No DLC required. Only Transfer Settlements and one mod required. Now updated with Transfer Settlements V1.48.
- Permissions and credits
So now I use my settlements as my perimeter. I know of the mod to expand the settlement budget, but I saw it as a challenge to make all of my 'Forts' keep within the game budget using only what I actually scrounged.
This 'Fort' has -
- 20 Beds
- 24 Water (Better Generators )
- 20+ Food
- Defense 182
- 4 Stores
- All crafting workbenches
Required Mods
Transfer Settlements

Additional Fort Croup Notes
Croup Manor is a major pain to build a settlement on. That useless eyesore of a building needs to be scrapped. I was going to do that on a future blueprint when I ripped the place down to it's foundations. But I thought I would make a 'Fort' for people that do not wish to go through the effort.
After spending many hours building this I decided I liked it so much that I would forgo scraping the entire thing. :)
*** IMPORTANT *** The statue base and ramps leading up to it in the courtyard will need to be scrapped as well.
(See last screen capture.)
The main lines of attack will always come from the west near the road or the south towards Nahant Chapel. I would not bother with many turrets on the northern side.
If you decide to reject the BOS as an ally these defenses trash vertibirds in seconds... ;)
Installation
The folder needs to be extracted and placed in your 'Transfer Settlements' folder. 7zip

If you like this design could you hit that little 'Endorse' button for me? I would really appreciate it. :)
None of my blueprints are designed to be pretty... :)
What they are designed to be is to not require all DLC, two mods maximum required, easily defensible,
stay within the 'Vanilla' game budget and have everything you need.
