Gun/Bounty Hunting

Every town in the Wild West had outlaws running rampant, with the tagline "Wanted: Dead or Alive". Catch these outlaws to bring some order to the West and money in your pocket. The Bounty Hunter missions are triggered by reading Wanted Posters in Empire and Dodge.

George "Whiskers" Mahonee

 * Wanted: Dead or Alive

An easy one to start with run to the Alhambra then run straight up to him slash him with a melee weapon grab him and then knock him unconscious $15 in the bank. Of course you could kill him but you would only get $10. You can either go in through the front door if you want to risk it and Quickdraw his ass, or you can move around the side and attempt to kill him from there - shooting the windows once will break it, and Mahonee will move past them periodically. It's just a matter of getting a decent shot.


 * Wanted Poster:

Wanted: George "Whiskers" Mahonee for the wanton murder of an Empire barber following a bad beer trim. Known to be found gambling in the Alhambra saloon.

Butch Mainard
Butch is located around Piper Lake, near the Indian Hunter. If you began this mission in Empire, it's a fairly easy trek on a horse - just go across the bridge and locate the small passage in the hills. Follow the direction on the map but if you want to know where he is he's up by the lake. Butch is between the Indian Trader and the Indian Hunter, and he'll attack you when you get close. Take out your shotgun and make sure you aim low so the horse will take most of the damage. Once the horse is dead rush up to him attack him with a melee weapon grab him and then knock him out.Once again you can kill him and collect a reward but you may need that $5 extra.

John H. Greed

 * Wanted: Dead or Alive

Like Butch, John is to be found north of Empire, but unlike Butch, John bolts as soon as you get in range and you have to chase him down. If he gets too far away, he'll escape and you'll fail the mission; also, if you don't kill him quickly enough - before you reach the lakeside cabin - his henchmen will appear and you'll have to kill them as well. The best course of action here is to use your rifle and try to get a couple of headshots; if that doesn't work, Quickdraw his henchmen and use your shotgun once you get close. You can either take out his horse if you want to subdue him, or kill him if you're not concerned about the cash.

Shifty Scholz
This is the first mission to not have the option to subdue the target, Scholz is wanted dead. However, you can't do this by killing his horse then taking him out once he's on foot because the horse was stolen and it's wanted back in one piece. Scholz is to be found in the Canyons along with the rest of the gang, and by the far the easiest strategy is to come from Dodge and Quickdraw as many of the gunmen as you can - you should be able to kill them all with some luck. After that, Scholz is easy pickings; he's difficult to hit with your rifle because of his speed, so if you have any Quickdraw left, do as much damage to him with that as possible. If that doesn't kill him, you'll have to use your rifle unzoomed and just keep firing. Once he's dead, ride his horse back to it's owner in Dodge.
 * Wanted: Dead

Lee Hop Dong
Firstly head towards the lake then up into the river canyon, they're on the hill and Lee Hop Dong is just at the top beware because they have a gatling gun. Take them out with the rifle and make you way up the side of the hill. Lee is cowering around the corner so just grab him and knock him out to collect $20
 * Wanted:

Lulabell "Bloody Belle" Siddens

 * Wanted: Dead

Head towards the plains towards Dodge she'll appear with two henchwomen take out you shotgun and blast her away then quick-draw to take out her sidekicks. Don't worry about taking her alive, she ain't worth it.

Toby "The Torch"
First head on over the Dodge as that's where he is Go up and talk to Toby. Now quickly before he runs away grab him and knock him out. Then go down towards the bridge and quick-draw the enemies and rifle the ones that are coming at  you from behind, mission complete.
 * Wanted:

Mad Dog McGrady

 * Wanted: Alive

Wayland Payne
Head on over to the ferry man to take you across the river. He and his gang are ganging out right where the Blackfoot's should be as such they are a but mad and they will start attacking them leaving you to either use a snipe of a  rifle to take them out from a distance and then ride it to find Payne. Once found get off you horse slash him with a melee weapon and knock him out. Do it quickly for the Blackfoot's kill him.
 * Wanted:

The Bandit Brothers
The think you must notice straight away is that you must kill James but take in Bob alive. I always find them to the right after coming across the bridge out of Dodge but you may not be starting from Dodge. Anyway quick-draw James and kill him straight out then kill Bob's horse and grab him in the normal  fashion don't let either escape.
 * Wanted:

Blackbird Boys
Head towards the plains outside of the ranch. On the mountain side the same side at the ranch going towards Empire there is a break in the rock that is where they are hiding out. Remember you must kill all fifteen of the boys so it's a bit harder than other bounties. Rush in and quick draw all that are there. Should be about 10 once you've killed them the rest of the gang will turn up on horse back quick-draw those that come through the gap and that  would be the end of that.
 * Wanted:

Bob "The Blade"
You heard the man get to devils canyon the quickest way is to go over to the plains outside of the ranch and follow the trail in the mountainside, now kill all of the gang and Bob will challenge you to a battle of blades well you know  what to do now slash him with a melee weapon and grab him and that's the last  bounty you have to do.
