Help Ironsides or Scavengers?

[Tanya]

Which is the "good" choice?

The Scavengers seem greedy but I don't want to pick the wrong party >_<

[Panda-Bishop]

There is no good choice, only which side you like more.

Boring scavengers or a sentry bot with an accent and tricone hat.

But if it helps you decide, siding with Ironside will ultimately reward you with a truly unique heavy weapon, the sight of a boat flying in the sky, and a friendly place to rest in the city. Siding with the scavengers does not.

If you side with the scavers .... and having Hancock as your companion urges you to do so if you "think about it" then talk to Hancock ..
you get double crossed by the scavers

It's a good reason not to have Hancock as your companion at that time.
It's a feel good payoff by helping Ironsides.

the logic is obvious attack commies that no longer exist or parts in diamond city. i like the robit he souds funny and has a big hat....

The scavs are very clearly the bad guys in that quest. They're basically jerks to you before you even start the quest, and have no kinds of noble or righteous cause, they just want to bust up robots and take the parts, and see the crew of the ship as a 'claim' they own.

Meanwhile the robots (while somewhat misguided), just want to go off and do their own thing and want the scavs to stop attacking them.

Indeed. I'm not sure there's any good reason to support the scavengers except variety, or maybe roleplaying for a specific character type (like an anti-robot activist).

Siding with the scavengers isn't fun, noble, or rewarding.

I sided w/the Scavs but then betrayed them.

Ironsides.

You get to see a sail based ship with rocket boosters fly across the city and smack into a skyscraper! Awesome and payment enough. But he also gives you a cool gun and a safe place to stay in Boston.
