Location: Quincy
Nickname: Gunners - The military-like raider group held a solid grasp on the southern portions of the Commonwealth before Nate Howard and the Brotherhood of Steel's efforts against them. Not your typical raider group, the Gunners were well-trained, formidable fighters. After the group was either killed or converted to the common citizenry, Gunners' flags reminded people of the Commonwealth just how tough they had been. Quincy decided to use those flags as a mascot of a rough and tough group of scrappy players willing to fight until the end.
Owner: Smiling Larry
Back Story: This man and his Reckoning were once bathed in the blood of a dozen super mutants. That's how Nate Howard met him. Smiling Larry held up the ripper and, well, he just smiled. Nate recruited him at first in the Southwestern settlement, Somerville Place, to be a weapons liaison for battling the Gunners near Vault 95 and the Gunner's Plaza. After Quincy was liberated from the Gunners, Smiling Larry asked Nate to move his weapons emporium there. Along with the quarry, Quincy became a wealthier part of the Commonwealth.
Stadium – The Stone House - When not busy on her pet project in Vault 88, Valery Barstow manages the Quincy Quarries, also called Quincy Quarry. She does little of the trading of the stones produced there, leaving that to Lucas Miller in Jamaica Plain. However, she did have the idea to build the one and only purely stone stadium in the Commonwealth. Sure, the outfielders will get banged up going after long fly balls, but the stadium is a rock. No, a stone house.
Location: University Point
Nickname: Deathclaws - One of the fiercest beasts in all of the Wastelands, the deathclaw is agile, strong, and deadly, just like this baseball team. Interestingly enough, when settlers repopulated University Point, they found a terminal entry of a small gang that used to run out of that area called the University Point Deathclaws. The name stuck.
Owner: Ronnie Shaw, aka Gen. Shaw, aka Quartermaster Shaw, aka The Minutewoman
Back Story: The former Minutemen quartermaster, later general, decided to retire while she could still walk, but retirement was never going to slow down Ronnie Shaw. She knew that Nate Howard assisted the Minutemen in retaking the Castle, the Minutemen's fort headquarters, and she wanted to repay Nate in whichever way she could. When he told of the desire to create a professional baseball league in the Commonwealth, she was all in. After retiring to University Point to be near The Castle but "not up everyone's *** there," Ronnie used her retirement caps to invest in purchasing the team. Even though Heather Casdin had thought about investing, she decided to continue he rediscovery of her old home and let Ronnie do her thing. With Ronnie's military background, she is one of the more demanding owners in the league, but she will build a team of respect and discipline.
Stadium: Gwinnett Brewery Park - Rufus Rubins, with the help of his trusty protection Drinkin' Buddy, left the confines of the Hotel Rexford in Goodneighbor to get the Gwinnett Brewery up and running. One of the favorite watering holes in the Commonwealth, the Gwinnett Brewery and Restaurant serves plenty of the Minutemen stationed at The Castle, as well as other travelers coming from the Southeast or Downtown Boston.
Location: Warwick Homestead
Nickname: Mirelurks - Those pesky crab-like beasts are scattered throughout every waterway of the Wasteland, including every ocean, river, lake, and pond in the Commonwealth. The reproduce at fast rates, laying about a dozen eggs at a time once every 3-4 weeks. With strong claws and a voracious appetite, these hard-shelled beasts are dangerous and ugly.
Owner: Roger Warwick
Back Story: It was discovered in time that Roger Warwick was not who he claimed to be. Nate found out and did something about it, but Roger was always grateful for what did. At first, the Warwick Homestead was a struggling small settlement with barely enough crops to feed the Warwick family, much else anything else. However, Nate changed that fate when he showed Roger and other settlers how they could fix up the nearby wreck of the FMS Northern Star and use that ship to catch, prepare, and distribute mirelurk meat to the Commonwealth. Soon, Roger and friends started the Warwick Homestead Fisheries Company and also learned how to better grow crops for exporting a new Commonwealth favorite dish, the Crustacean Salad.
Stadium: The Homestead - Simple and elegant. Roger Warwick expressed a desire to name the stadium after the nickname bestowed on his settlement instead of after his company, Warwick Homestead Fisheries Company.
