Do settlers need ammunition?
Do I need to supply my settlers with ammunition if I give them a new gun, I know that followers require ammunition but does the same apply for settlers.
Why?
I'd like to role play and give all my settlers Institute weapons so that each fight in my settlements becomes a disco. But I don't have fusion cells to give to them all.
Best Answer
I belive that if you give a settler a gun with 1+ ammunition it will be unlimited. I have personally tested. Hope this helps :)
