Features
This mod adds Institute laser weaponry to the We Are The Minutemen mod. In the basic base file, it gives regular troops a high chance to spawn with a random Institute laser gun, while giving Veteran soldiers a low chance to spawn with a powerful, randomly modified Institute laser gun.
If you use the version with Institute Pulse Carbine instead (highly recommended), alongside the additions mentioned above, it also gives regular Minutemen a low chance to spawn with a Pulse Carbine, while giving Veteran ones a high chance to spawn with one.
The optional Power Armor file gives Power Armored Minutemen soldiers a 50% chance to spawn with a full set of Institute painted X-01. There is also another optional file that gives Power Armoed soldiers a 50% chance to spawn with an Institute Gatling Laser.
Lore
My own headcanon for this mod is that, as both General and Director, the Sole Survivor decided to integrate the Minutemen as the armed forces of the Institute, so they can have a friendlier, human face to rule over their "subject" settlements, and also to have more ground troops for the possible return of the Brotherhood of the Steel.
But, you can also use this for a post-Minutemen, post-Institute destruction ending, and say that all the weapons and armor from this mod were loot from the Institute/reverse engineered from the Network Scanner holotape/created by the Institute scientist refugees.
