Stuck on State of War

[CHISEL]

I can't find a gunner outpost to capture. I think i may have already took back all the territory they took from me before. Is there a list of outposts? Every place I try to assault is either mutant hounds or raiders?

Incidentally, taking the Scrap Palace eventually (felt like several hours and save loads later) fulfilled one requirement for taking a Gunner Territory (as opposed to a Gunner Outpost). Presumably Milton Hospital and Mass Fusion Disposal Ground would also qualify but we can't do those just yet because the workaround for the Bethesda location bug hasn't been created yet in SS2. And no, I won't use the UFP.

Hallucinogen, Mass Fusion, Hub Auto also work. Try places that had gunners in the vanilla game.

The counter updated when I took the 3rd gunner territory.

On another note: 5 hotfixes since release. The team working hard to get those fixes done. And they're not even getting paid. Go get sleep...or something.

It says capture a gunner outpost and three gunner territories. I ended up using console commands to force complete the mission. A lot more bugs along the way. random crashes, extremely long load times entering new world spaces, assaults that never end from being stuck on hold off reinforcements, random gunners marked essential not dying in assaults and having to be manually disabled to get the quest to progress. Then i finally make it to the big Quincy battle and my pip boy won't work with the radio tower. Gunna probably wait a couple months and do a fresh start.

what commands did you use to complete the quest

Gotta be careful with console commands. Depends on what part of the quest you're stuck on, there may be workarounds that don't involve console. Like for "essential" gunners, that should be fixed in Hotfix g/h but if you're still getting that, try changing the policy in HQ meeting room to "no prisoners, we want gunners dead". For territory objectives not updating, save after assault and reload the game.

Hi what's the command to force complete the mission as I'm having the same problem. Please

I had issues with the assaults on the 3 gunner territories too, I tried University Point, gunners would eventually spawn but couldn't finish it with the reinforcements bugging out. Tried Revere Satellite Array, same issue, Poseidon Energy didn't even spawn gunners, the wreck next to Warwick Homestead didn't spawn anything at all.
The only thing that seemed to be working was Salem, but that didn't update the quest at all.
But when looking through vanilla gunner territories and attacking those I did manage to finish the assault, through the HQ planning and by using the flare gun. I cleared Hallicigen, Greenetech Genetics and the Mass Fusion Building and managed to complete all the assaults with no issues whatsoever and the quest instantly updated.

I seem to be stuck on two quests that are supposed to trigger more quests at certain points. State of War I'm stuck on the objective "Hold the Commonwealth against the Gunners."

The wiki says that the next quest Led By Example should start "after you complete an Assault while the "Hold the Commonwealth against the Gunners" objective for State of War is displayed in your quest journal or 24 hours after that objective appears - which ever comes first."

I have done many, many assaults but never get the radio call.

Another one is Under One Banner. I spoke with all the Envoys that I should have but the objective still says "Assist the Factions you've met to gain alliances and defeat the Gunners permanently." The next quest, Outside Assistance, is supposed to start after completing an Assault while Under One Banner is active. But as I said, I've done many assaults but nothing is updating .

I haven't been able to get Led by Example to start, but one of the quests that should start during one of the State of War stages requires Synth Retention to be either not active or completed so you want to make sure that's not in your questlog and complete it if it's there. I overlooked it and was like ???

Building the Embassy shouldn't impact that. Likely something fubarred with the dialogue.
Will look into it.



I agree that there should be quest flags for the locations for the State of War objective: Take back the locations the Gunners captured north of the river
The Outpost and Territories required are very specific. I'm not sure why they didn't include quest flags for them. We've requested that for QoL.

Spoiler: Locations For this objective:

Capture Outpost - Oberland Station
Capture Territories:

• Forest Grove Marsh
• Federal Ration Stockpile
• Lexington

If you trigger it from HQ, it will bring up a list of Gunner outposts. However, I too am now stuck and can't actually start the assault. After selecting which inwant to attack, then select what I want to convert it to, it brings up another screen with 1 empty box where I assume there should be choices, probably who to send, and just a confirm button. But everything is empty so there's nothing to confirm. One issue after another with this game man.
