Commonwealth Contactor | Military Barracks Building

Are you trying to build a military fort style settlement but you just can't quite quite get the barracks right? well no worries, The Commonwealth Contractor has you covered.

Thanks for the tutorial, I was getting sick of making my barracks look like a generic concrete rectangle and thus looks amazing!

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but the best place in the game by far to get glass is the Beantown Brewery. Tons of empty bottles inside, and they respawn every few in game days.

I'm pretty sure I listed it in my top strategies for collecting build materials video. if not, that was a glaring oversight on my part, since that very fact was what inspired me to make that video in the first place.

Hello from Bulgaria. The video is wonderful and I enjoyed it very much. Your idea is just great! What I would change is, on the four corner towers I would put doors to the second floor and terraces. I would place guard posts and turrets there. Also around sandbags, guard posts, turrets... And if the settlers are dressed in military uniforms and battle armor.... Just wonderful...

[@carlbowen9220]

I like it. A good footprint for a site with lots of building room.

[@sensualsquelch]

Nooooooo I’ve caught up with all your videos 😩
It’s kinda weird but I’ve been falling asleep to one of your Settlement/Contractor videos every single night, they’re so lowkey and soothing to listen to

[@Theegreygaming]

glad I could be of help, sorry that you've run out, I'm working on it though... very slowly, but I'm working on it.

[@RewardedRocki]

It's good to see the settlement system used properly, I usually just scrap everything at the Red Rocket outside of Sanctuary and build a fence around it.

[@zarkthepirate]

Definitely looks better than any barracks I ever stayed in lol fantastic build

[@Esper320]

I definitely dig it, reminds me of some of the semi-temporary plywood structures we would put up in the Army especially in overseas bases without a ton of infrastructure like Syria and Brazil.
Def want to give this a go with a secondary level on on it with catwalks and place guard stops on top of the turrets

Nice build...a bit different than the barracks I had in 1980 (no turrets) but a second floor. With small rooms at each end ...40 man open bays the small rooms for the platoon Sergeant and offices. Nice build as I said ... might use it on Nordhagen Beach or the castle

[@GrimDarkness1972]

Nice video and cracking timing! I was just putting on paper an apartment block to try in my settlements and I was wondering about inner walls and stuff. I did not know the farm and barns sets had all that variety of walls and this video is really making me think to riconsider my plan! 😂

[@caveranger369]

Amazing video and great build as well 👏

[@nicholaskrauss8191]

Definitely like this build, there are so many options as to what you can do inside

[@str_]

That’s a really cool design

[@donwright5020]

Heck yeah, I’m gonna try this. Most of my buildings look pretty, well wasteland

[@burgerboi166]

All your builds are awesome. There's something magical about building in vanilla fallout 4. It takes skill and a lot of patience 😅
Keep up the great work

[@patrickweaver9481]

Love these build videos!

[@Natallica0]

I absolutely love your videos!! Please keep making more

[@havoksaar7905]

Wow I love this! I definitely will be including this in my settlements!

[@Steve00036]

Looks great as usual, thanks for the inspiration. I would definitely use something like this

[@ng_reed]

i feel like this type of build would be right at home at the castle (i know size/build parameters wouldn't allow for it), but with the castle being minutemen hq, it makes a lot of sense to have a barracks filled with a standing army to respond to distress calls

[@natesworld3122]

I really like this build idea

[@tankaroonie8943]

Same tower design as my one on spectacle island

[@humm_vee_wusky6273]

I keep looking for videos on putting power in the building you build.

[@Theegreygaming]

I have a commonwealth contractor video on doors and powered doors, there's a bit of a power tutorial there, but it's pretty basic, we don't do the wireless power glitches or anything like that.

[@elrondorio]

I plan on building this on my next Fallout 4 session as soon as I figure out which undeveloped settlement I intend to use (probably Far Harbor settlements.)

[@wod5203]

Have you messed around with any of the factory manufacturing kits? This building may be useful to facilitate that as well, with the turret sections housing the control terminals or power plants needed to run manufacturing machines and conveyor belts.

[@JDMDorisha]

Amazing video keep up the good work, but where was this built

[@Theegreygaming]

spectacle island.

[@Rattaz]

this might be a stupud question and might not get attention but when starting a build where should i start? which pice should i place first?

[@residentrump3271]

*NICE!* The only thing missing is a garrison of BOS soldiers! 😋

[@Theegreygaming]

so long as they don't answer to Arthur. :)

[@MassiveMaleMonkey]

mate you misspelled the name of the series
