Now I'm trying to decide what I'm gonna do. Do I let the girl die (and have to kill Dan since I told him about the Compound and he's already left to join me there), or do I save the girl, piss off Covenant and then have to systematically wipe them out?

I searched for a way to try and accomplish both (save the girl and keep Covenant friendly), but it doesn't look like it's possible.
I did Covenent a lot later in the game so I had to follow my story. I saved the girl and went back to town... And well they fired first but I fired last! I then resettled and it is a thriving settlement intact with smoking turrets and corpses...
