Sheriff Black
Objective: Deliver these supplies to the Northern Watch Tower.
The Northern Watch Tower needs to be resupplied, but the bandits aren’t making it easy.
Now that you’ve got a Cuprino, you need to run the supplies up to the men at the Northern Watch Tower. My men can’t hold out forever.
Help my guys, and I’ll give you a little something for your effort.

New Objective: Head north and west to the Watch Tower
Before leaving Wellspring, take a moment to check out your new Cuprino waiting in Mick’s garage. Like the Dune Buster, you can assign quick use items and apply any new parts through the tune option. By default, any new parts purchased are automatically added to your Cuprino. If you purchased a ramming grill or spiked tires back at Rusty’s, it is already installed by the time you get to Mick’s garage. When you’re finished admiring your new ride, exit the garage to take it for a spin.
The first thing you’ll notice about the Cuprino is that it has two primary weapons. Use the weapon select button/key to toggle between the Miniguns and C3C Rocket Launchers. The currently selected weapon appears in the gray bar in the bottom left corner of the screen. The Miniguns are represented by three bullet icons and the Rocket Launchers are indicated by a rocket icon. Get ready to face some bandit vehicles when you reach Scorcher Territory. The Cuprino is heavy, and as a result, not as maneuverable as the bandit buggies. While the Cuprino has more armor than your Dune Buster, the damage adds up fast when ganged up on by bandits, so when you’re taking fire, immediately deploy Shields. Rely on your rockets to inflict heavy damage on the enemy vehicles. As with the Miniguns, you must have a target selected and in front of you before you can score a hit with the rockets. Once a target is selected, the rockets will home in on the enemy vehicle once fired. However, avoid firing rockets if the enemy vehicle has deployed Shields—wait until the Shields have worn off before firing. The Cuprino’s added armor is always welcome, but learning to maneuver this heavy vehicle in combat takes some practice. Consider backing up along one of the on-ramps, allowing the bandit vehicles to chase you. This allows you to keep your forward facing weapons pointed at the enemy while preventing flanking attacks.
New Objectives:
- Give the supplies to the guard
- Return to Sheriff Black
The Northern Watch Tower isn’t far from Scorcher Territory. Once you’ve wiped out the bandits, follow the highway marked on the minimap to reach your objective. At the Watch Tower, exit your Cuprino and walk over to Curtis, the guard standing watch. Once Curtis thanks you for the supplies, your work here is complete. Hop back in the Cuprino and head back to Sheriff Black in Wellspring.
During the drive back to Wellspring, watch out for bandit activity near the Shrouded Clan Bunker. The bandits here operate Remote Controlled Bomb Cars that detonate if they get close to your vehicle. These RC Bomb Cars can be destroyed with your Miniguns once targeted, but if one gets behind you, simply boost to avoid taking damage from the inevitable detonation. Eliminate any bandits and then get back to Mick’s garage in Wellspring. Have Mick fix any damage to your Cuprino. On your way to the Sheriff’s office, be sure to see Sally in the Second Chance Bar to receive payment for any bandit vehicles you destroyed. Sheriff Black has some money for you too, paying you $175 for the delivery of the supplies to the Northern Watch Tower. But the Sheriff isn’t finished with you yet. He has another job for you.…
