(Spoilers) Is it possible to activate Liberty Prime without destroying the Railroad?

[Jimmy Lander]

I’m trying to get the Minutemen ending with Liberty Prime activated, but I’m not sure if I can also keep the Railroad alive and allied with me. Cpt. Kells forces me to attack them in order to proceed with the Brotherhood quest line. Does anyone know if there’s a way?

If you want to not kill off the Railroad, you need to reload a save game before talking to Kells about attacking the Railroad, and not talk to Kells again before completing the main game. If you deliver the agitator to the Brotherhood and activate Liberty Prime you are then locked into the Brotherhood ending. To get the Minuteman ending while keeping the Brotherhood and Railroad alive, you need to stop with the Brotherhood after delivering the nukes for Liberty Prime, dont talk to Kells for the kill the Railroad quest, and make the Institute hate you at that point.

How do I prompt the quest where I have to retrieve the Agitator though?

You dont. Once you start that quest you are locked into either a Brotherhood ending or the Institute.

Ok, then how do I get the Brotherhood ending without destroying the Railroad? Can I trigger that quest where you have to retrieve the agitator or am I forced to destroy the Railroad first no matter what?

You said you wanted the Minuteman ending. If you want the Brotherhood ending the Railroad are toast.
edit: the only way, without mods, to end with Liberty Prime fully activated and walking on his own is to finish with the BrotherHood and to do that you have to kill the Railroad. The only way to finish with 3 factions not killing each other is the Minuteman.

Ahh that’s too bad. Thanks for the info though!
