Once a historic pre–Revolutionary War ironworks, this location was reopened during the ramp-up to provide materials for the war with China. The location is now run by Slag, a particularly ferocious Raider and his clan, the Forged.

Fig 2.19C: Saugus Blast Furnace (Interior)
The interior is a confusing maze of catwalks and ramps, so take your time and try not to fall into the molten forges. Slag and Jake Finch both carry a Saugus roof key if you can’t manage to unlock it (Expert), as well as his Holotape. Don’t overlook the Bobblehead, trunk, and magazine in this fiery chamber.
