Libertalia

Libertalia is a raider encampment in the Commonwealthin 2287.

Background
Some enterprising nutcases have gathered a variety of rusting ships, docks, and debris and fashioned a ship's graveyard into a stronghold. This settlement was eventually overrun by mirelurks. After the death of General Becker in 2282, and as the Minutemen started to fray, a detachment broke off and cleared the mutants out of this location. They tried their hand at mercenary work, however they were routinely taken advantage of. Initially, he tried to enforce the Minutemen way of helping other settlers in exchange for caps and food, but after a while, their food supplies reached dangerous lows. Eventually they started to take to raiding to keep from starving: two of Wire's best men raiding caravans. After Wire discovered the actions of his men, he had them executed. Eventually, Wire himself gave in to the raider lifestyle after caravans repeatedly stiffed his men on their escort jobs. Afterward, Wire seems to begrudgingly accept that he must do what it takes for him and his men to survive, but notes in his last terminal entry that his former leaders would be sickened by his actions and that he no longer felt like making entries. By 2283, they had been getting paid off from Bunker Hill to not attack them. Libertalia eventually fell under the control of Gabriel, a synth, at at the start of Synth Retention.

Layout
Libertalia is a raider settlement made up of destroyed watercraft linked by wooden bridges. At its center is a capsized supertanker with its stern pointing straight up; the uppermost level - where a Master level computer terminal guards an otherwise-inaccessible safe - is accessible via a ladder in the captain's cabin.

There is a cooking station on the southwestern land access to Libertalia, next to a beached ship. A weapons workbench is in the middle of the map, on top of the red ship next to the disposal barge. An armor workbench can be found on the second floor of the barracks attached to the capsized supertanker and a chemistry station is one level above the armor workbench.

Notable loot

 * U.S. Covert Operations Manual #7 - By the red chair and oil lamp on an exposed outlook on the main shanty ship, on the last level before the entrance to the captain's cabin, the same level as the white metal cabin.
 * Le Fusil Terribles - A unique combat shotgun with the added effect of +25% damage and limb damage, but with more recoil. It can be found on a wooden crate partially hidden beneath a life preserver in the captain's cabin.
 * Mini nuke - In the captain's cabin in the room to the right as the player character enters under the bottom level of a shelf. This is the same room with the ladder up to the roof.
 * Libertalia password - Given by Gabriel during Synth Retention. Gives access to the terminal on the ship.

Appearances
Libertalia appears only in Fallout 4.

Behind the scenes
Libertalia is a reference to an alleged 17th century "pirate utopia" of the same name, founded by the notorious British pirate Henry Avery in northeastern Madagascar. The settlement was first alluded to in the 1724 book A General History of the Pyrates, though modern historians generally agree the location was fictional.

Bugs

 * After killing Wire and not fast traveling out but instead going through the captain's cabin, the replacement raider in raider power armor may immediately spawn and notice the Sole Survivor (but not interact through the two doors).
 * When looking at the title of the U.S. Covert Operations Manual on the table, it appears to be the "Getting the Drop on Communists" issue, but is in fact the "Bushes, Boxes, and Beehives, Camouflage Special" issue.
