Here’s my rough layout for Basset.
I say rough because I can’t make out how I want it to look in the final version since I don’t know of all the set pieces already in FO3. I think I’ll be using the buildings from the Republic of Dave since that gives me three different buildings. I wanted to use the homestead buildings but there’s only one or two types of them. I’ll use them for a town closer to the city.
I was thinking about having a wall of cars around the city to reinforce the either chainlink fence or wall around the town but that would actually makes it easier to climb over so if I do decide to, I’m going to need to place it about 10 feet away. I might just end up putting a moat. These are defensive people with a lot of guns so I’m going to emphasize that.
In the middle of the town is the main building where the “king” lives. I decided the descendant of Walter Basset ended up running the place and then his son after him. I always imagined Walter as having kids that had moved out by the time the war happened but I’m now making it that they were allowed in too as one would imagine. This could lead to a situation where Walter the… 3rd-5th, doesn’t have any children and problems insue. Heck, I guess your character could end up becoming king. I’m not sure if I’m going to go by “king” though. Maybe “chief” or adopting “walter” as a title. 
The hole in the middle is the entrance to the bunker. The thing next to it is the foundation of the origional house. Why is that the only one there? Well it’s still in use for some reason so it was cleaned off and the ground may have covered over the old ones. Maybe the new houses are built on the old foundations. Maybe they broke up and got moved out of the way. I based the area off of a neighobour hood from where I plan on placing Basset. All the houses there are gone but the cars would have been left as big rusty heaps. I could not have a bunch of cars in the forest by putting up that wall though. Oh yeah, Basset is far to the south, outside of the northern DC radiation and then area has trees and what not growing in it. I’m not going to make a dense forest everywhere (Some areas have completely grown back though) but the “normal areas” around Basset will have have sporadic trees and bushes. Having greenery is something that’s going in regardless of what anyone else thinks. Bethesda said they left it out because it didn’t feel Fallout-y but that’s faulty logic. FO1 and FO2 took place in the desert and already have things growing back like I’ve said before.
I’m super tired now so what else do I have to say. Brahim pens are in the back. There are guard towers around the wall. I need some space for crop growing.
