Ronnie Shaw’s Revelation
While speaking to Preston Garvey after another successful recruitment mission, he mentions someone named Ronnie Shaw has arrived at the Castle looking for you. Head over to the Castle (using the workshop here to build defenses is wise if you didn’t think of this already).
Ronnie tells you about an old Minutemen armory located in the west bastion of the Castle. Unfortunately, the old entrance is covered in rubble. Fortunately, your Workshop skills allow you to scrap the rubble.
Venture into the Castle tunnels with Ronnie. Eliminate the defenses, including a vicious Sentry Bot named Sarge. After Ronnie opens the security door, you spot the previous leader of the Minutemen. Feel free to dress in his attire if you wish to look the part. Then find the button to open the piston door to the exterior courtyard.

Enter the armory and gather as many impressive pieces of killing equipment as you want to test out. Don’t leave without the Artillery Schematic or smoke grenades.

Artillery Smoke Grenade (20)
Bombs Bursting in Air
An Artillery Piece would be a huge boost to the hitting power available to the Minutemen. Time to build one! Place it anywhere you wish within the Castle’s perimeter.
- Build with: Oil (4), Screw (8), Gear (11), Spring (5), Steel (16), Concrete (4), Wood (4)
- Requires: Person (1)
Locate any settler within the Castle. Highlight them and press “Command.” Move over to the Artillery Piece. Press “Assign.”
Ronnie Shaw wishes to conduct a test fire of the artillery. Head down to the ruined snack shop, and lob a smoke grenade (access it just like any other projectile). Back up, and witness the artillery test fire. You can now return to Preston Garvey to finish this quest and secure additional Radiant activities.
