MODERATORS
The brotherhood actually are partly the east coast branch. The airship is the one from 4.
Fallout 4 says that Maxson reunited both east and west faction (no comment on semi-canon Midwest group from Tactics) to create the new fascist BoS in that game. Which is what is in the show.
Oh dang. I didn’t realize.
I assumed they were West Coast because they were fucking losers and not the Bestest Good Guys from Fallout 3?
The ones in 4 had a much more old-school BoS ideology. The old elder died, his heir disappeared (presumed dead?), and the next guy changed them back, reintegrated the outcasts, and rejoined the main faction over the radio. Imo it's kind of a lazy retcon. But yeah anyway IIRC the airship that shows up in the show is the same one that they had on the east coast in 4 (the Prydwen).
This also establishes that the BoS ending in 4 is canon because IIRC it gets blowed up in every other ending.
Small correction, minutemen don't have to blow up the prydwyn, you can if you want to but it's a bit like parthanax, you don't have to to progress the story
It makes sense, of course the people LARPing as colonizers would support the fascists.
