Sometimes you will see a skull icon in the city. Go there and you will find a poster #1 with the drawing with the description of one dangerous bandit #2. All places where you can find these posters are described in the chapter [Maps] Bounty Hunter. Wanted posters are appearing only in the evenings.
You can take a look at the poster and you will see: 1. the name of the bandit, 2. his description, 3. informations about his gang, 4. last localization (when you will accept this mission it will be marked on the map) and 5. informations about the reward. For bringing the bandit alive you will get 200 honor points. In the game world there are 20 locations, where your enemies can hide. All of them are described in the chapter [Maps] Bounty Hunter. The total number of bandits is 45.
After killing all his guards, try to catch your opponent. To do this use you lasso #1. Then put him on your horse #2 and go to the nearest police station to get your reward.
If you will decide to kill wanted bandit, you will get a smaller reward. In addition, you won't get any honor points. Remember to take a proof that the bandit is dead.
Remember than during your journey, some bandits will try to free his companion. Note that when you are getting close to a town, chasing groups are disappearing. A very important thing is to have a good horse - you will be at the police station much faster. The next important thing is to keep one bandit alive (and hurt his horse). As a result he won't be able to follow you and no new group will appear in the future. If the bandit is alive and his horse is dead, after some time he will stop chasing you but some new groups will appear.
