As detailed in the Necrognomicon?

I'm really enjoying my SIM Settlements 2 play through. The mod integrates well into the main game, the new ways of managing settlements are different enough to feel fresh, and frankly the story missions are significantly more compelling than the main game storyline.

Sometimes it just takes time for them to arrive. If they haven't turned up after 24 hours, then it's time to worry.

Thor: Ragnarok, Captain America: The Winter Solider, and The Avengers are the ones I can go back to time and again when I want a good, entertaining movie. Beyond that, Iron Man and the first two Guardians of the Galaxy movies are always fun. Infinity War / Endgame and GotG 3 are very good, but...

These are both quantified to an extent based upon Position and Effect. A partial success is effectively "you succeed but the opposition also succeeds", so the consequences are the same as if you failed outright. If you're getting partial successes on a lot of Desperate rolls, the pain from them...

Hall of Silks inspires tailor.

Yes, it is. Characters travelling between settlements are subject to the same dangers of the wastes as you are - but only if the cells they're walking through are currently loaded in (i.e. you're nearby). If you stay clear of the path between the two settlements, they should be fine.

Deadly oldster, unexpected near TPK. Playing Baldur's Gate: Descent into Avernus, we're in literally the starting dungeon, just levelled up to 2nd level, and run into an elderly necromancer who initially opens up with some 1st and 2nd level spells, plus a rat swarm. Then he pulls out a...

Legendaries are such pot-luck, it's rarely worth trying to deliberately farm them. Last game I played, I was picking up great ones all over the place - Instigating sniper rifles, multiple stat-boosting armour pieces before I hit 20th level, incendiary combat shotgun. In my current run it's all...

There are also radiation suits that provide almost complete radiation protection, so if you don't want to fuss with power armour for your companion, put them in one of them.
