There's an archway down the street from that Cambridge PD across the street from the Fraternal Post 115. The Raiders and some robots gather inside that arch. Sneak up from either entrance and you can tale them all out with a single blast. Cait will jump for joy and remind you to share everything you find and then you loot them. Come back later and they'll have more loot on them. At times I can loot the same corpses all day long.

 
 
I'll check that out this weekend.
 
What's your opinion of the latest DLC?

Bleh! Build 3 things for experiments and I think it's over. I can't build anything yet. I'm still trying to learn how all of the blocks go together. I did find a section of stairwell in a lower level and was able to put a building on it and fill it with beds but that's it so far.

The reviews said that this was a very huge area to build in. In your opinion, is the review correct? I haven't gone their yet.

Hey Ducky,
 
Any problems with that mod that expands the building areas of the settlements? I haven't installed it yet due to the release of the DLC's and patches.

Oh, it is a massive underground complex extending as far as University Point in one direction. I haven't checked the map when I was in the other locations. I think there are 3 workbenches but they are different than the settlement ones. You have to find the circuits to activate them and then clear a lot of rubble and cave-ins.

Sounds like a lot of settlers are going to be needed to clear all that rubble out of the way. I imagine that there are new building methods and structures just for the Vault. Can you confirm this?
 
When doing those experiments are you the "evil" guy or are you playing nice?

I am in cahoots with the Evil Overseer Ghoul lady. She is absolutely shameless. There is a poor 'idiot' named Clem who volunteers for everything. I had him riding an excercise bicycle until an electric charge blew him halfway across the room. LOL When I saw Cait get on that same bicycle contraption to kill time I started to fear for my life.

Should put Nick on that bicycle and see if he would get short circuited.
 
Cait may be charging her batteries for something (ahem) later.

Cait calls me "Treasure" now. I don't know where she comes up with that one but it's OK with me. Whenever I ask about her 'Thoughts' in the dialogue option she says she's having naughty thoughts about me followed by "Wanna find a bed?". I spend more time making beds for Me and Cait in my settlements than anything else. Feeling that Lover's Embrace always gets me extra XP when I finish a mission so I have to spend some 'quality time' with Cait before I turn them in.
 
IDK about the Vault building stuff. I can't get any of the pieces to go together and there are so many different options I may never figure it out. Waiting for Nuka-World myself. The only thing I am doing now is the two repetitive quests for the BOS out of Cambridge PD just to level up. Boring, I know, but there isn't much else to do. It's much more fun with a Legendary Tri-Barreled Rocket Launcher with a lock-on targetting sights. Fire and forget! Poof and they're gone!

I haven't played since the new DLC dropped.  But I can speak of older mods like Far Harbor and such.  
 
If you are referring to the mod that expands the budget of the settlements, I haven't seen any ill effects.  If you are referring to the mod that increases the physical build area, then DLC's will have no effect on that mod.  BUT, that mod is settlement exclusive and only expands the settlements that the author edited.     There is another mod that also expands settlement borders, but sadly, neither mod is being supported any longer.

Treasure???? Hopefully it's not buried treasure that she is referring too. Check her inventory to see if there is a shovel in there. 
 
That missile launcher sounds bad and well worth obtaining. I have the 4 launcher unit but it has no option to fire and forget. Got to keep the eyes open.
