One time I got a call to take out an assassination target, and he was so close to my base that even my settlers got to pitch in to help. I’ve had them happen while I was on the furthest reaches of the map as well as when I was simply puttering around one of my settlements. Missions from the Committee can take place just about anywhere you happen to be wandering in Fallout 4. Not that I mind! It’s a welcome distraction from my junk collecting, and sometimes your target will drop some high-end legendary loot. I’ve always wound up in a full-on war and had to wipe everyone out. You don’t need to bring all the protectors down, just your assigned target, but that’s easier said than done. In the elimination missions I’ve completed, my targets have always been surrounded by raider bodyguards or other tough packs of goons. This is a good chance to use a bit of stealth and approach carefully from a distance, because not only is this target typically very tough, but they’re also not alone. The Committee has decided they need one particular scumbag in the Commonwealth dead, and they’re calling on you to do their dirty work.

It’s up to you how to handle it.īest of all, there are assassination missions.

They’ll swarm your location, looking for you, but to complete the mission you can also just escape safely without so much as firing a shot. These are fun because you don’t need to kill all the bad guys. There are also defence missions, in which the Committee basically needs to use you as bait for some of their enemies. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to either destroy the massive gun or kill the artillery crew-but since you’re headed all that way into the wasteland you might as well do both, right? Artillery crews are really tough and can take a major pounding, but battling them is fun with the massive cannon periodically blasting into the air to remind you what you’re fighting for.īlowing up the giant cannon is satisfying, too, especially after a long and brutal fight with its operators. An enemy faction has dragged a massive cannon out into the Commonwealth and they’re bombing the hell out of a target, something the Committee is none too happy about. Then there are artillery destruction missions. I fail my first rescue mission-they kill their prisoner before I can take them all down-but on my second rescue mission I manage to bring down all the slavers and save the poor person they’ve captured. They are, in fact, beating the hell out of that prisoner, which gives me a little extra motivation to kill them quickly and free the captive. While I’m running back to my settlement a while later I get a notification that a group of slavers are transporting a prisoner nearby. In addition to these control point style missions, you can also opt in for rescue missions.
