Gunners

Gunners are a hostile faction appearing in Fallout 4.

Background
Essentially the largest criminal gang in the Commonwealth, the Gunners are a well-organized and equipped group of trained killers with their own customs and signage who control numerous large strongholds in and around the Boston area.

Similarly to Capital Wasteland's Talon Company, although they claim to be soldiers for hire they are never actually seen in this role, instead attacking anyone that approaches their territory in much the same way as common raiders. Where they differ from raiders is their lack of drug dependency, their use of superior equipment - they usually come equipped with combat armor and rifles - and other heavy duty military gear, such as Assaultrons and Mister Gutsys. Their vocalizations also suggest much better training.

Interestingly they also posses functional Vertibird which they use to transport attack teams usually composed of 2-4 gunners along with 1-2 attack dogs. Though they are a rare sighting and seem to only appear south of boston ruins and never to the north. Players should be especially cautious near the edges of the glowing sea as a Vertibird showing up there will either mean the BOS or gunners attack team dropping in.

Many Gunners also get their blood types tattooed onto their foreheads by their medic. This is both a practical measure and a rite of passage. This can be seen on some but not all Gunners.
