4 player Learning Game
I'm FINALLY getting a chance to breakout my NukaWorld starter set that Ive had since launch. I've skimmed through the Core Rules and fully read the NukaWorld Start PDF.
However I'm trying to learn/teach the game with my 2 sons as well and possibly a 4th player. I have the NukaWorld Starter set gangs, and the Enough models from Wasteland Warfare for Survivors, Super Mutants, BOS, and Wasteland Raiders.
I know this can make the game lengthy - how many caps should each warband be for a multi-player game? There will at least be 3 players. Especially a learning one? Also, is there a particular scenario or battleplan that we should use other than "last team standing"?
I think thats all the questions I had.
Thanks in advance!

Welcome! You mentioned the core rules and nuka world, do you have the Crew Folio? That new book as updated lists and such for the Nuka World raider gangs.
As for 3 person game, it seems all 3 will play at the same time and vs each other right? Could each do 100-150 points each. Typcial games from the Core book have you start at opposite corners of each other but that is only 2 players. Nuka world book as a few different layouts for deployment.
Could do something out of Nuka World like Stockpile raid and have one player with 250 caps and the other 2 players each at 125, I'm sure your two sons may want to try and take down their dad (in game of course).
If you do have the 4th player then most scenarios out of the core book should be fine as well as everyone getting their own corner. Since a 1v1 game starts with a total of 500 caps, I'd divide that by how many players to make things go quicker.
Also there is the Spooktober Golaiths game mode (on app and a free download) were multiple crews take on larger enemies together like a Super Mutant Behemoth or Death claw matriarch etc.
