1. The Buccaneers 2. The overboss of the gang would be the Admiral or Commodore, likely named Bloodbeard or something of the sort. Possibly he named himself after Blackbeard personally. Following the boss would be his First Mate, then the Buccaneer Captain as the highest level common raider. As for heavy hitters, I see them having some kind of 'whaler' or other hunter-type that uses the Harpoon Gun from Far Harbor. Possibly a Mirelurk Queen Hunter? Ultimately, the hierarchy would be something like Swabbie -> Deckhand -> Pirate -> Marauder -> Whaler -> Captain -> First Mate -> Admiral 3. As for armor, the lower rankes (Swabbies, Deckhands, and Pirates) would be largely ragged-looking, clothing themselves in the Tattered Rags, Drifter's Outfit, Radstag Hide Outfit, Winter Jacket and Jeans, Hooded Rags, Longshoreman's Outfit, possibly MacCready's Duster, if you're up for using unique outfits. As for hats, I would say the Minuteman's Hat, Wrapped Cap, Fisherman's Hat, and Grey Knit Cap. As for proper armor, metal and raider gear would fit just fine. The Captains, First Mates, and Admiral would naturally be in higher quality clothes, likely wearing the Faded Duster, Colonial Duster, and the Hunter's Long Coat, with pirate and tricorn hats. The Hunters and Marauders would be fully decked out in Coastal Armor, Trapper Armor, and the Hunter's Pelt Outfit. 4. The Buccaneers would be heavily melee-based, preferring Bladed Tire Irons, Machetes, Boards, Meat Hooks and Pole Hooks. Officers (Captains and above) would carry Chinese Officer Swords and Revolutionary Swords. As for guns, pipe weapons are the clear go-to, though I also see them fielding .44 Magnums and Double-Barreled Shotguns. As said before, the Whalers would use Harpoon Guns as their sole heavy weapons. 5. Being pirates, it's fitting that the Buccaneers can be encountered all across the coastline, from Salem all the way to Warwick, as well as Spectacle Island and possibly the large rivers leading inland. Their main base of operations would be Libertalia. 6. Libertalia shares its name with a legendary pirate community supposedly founded on Madagascar, so it's only fitting that it also be host to the pirates of Massachusetts Bay.
