Objectives of The Tool Box
1. Follow Charles to Manzanita Post
Charles and one of the hired guns will drive the first wagon. You and the second hired gun named Willard Wayne will drive the second wagon. The route to Manzanita Post will run smoothly. Your companion will turn out to be a very nice guy.
2. Acquire some tools from Nils
When you get to the Manzanita Post, you and Wayne get out of the wagon and go talk to the smith.
Nils is not very talkative, but you will eventually get a set of tools and you will be able to move on.
3. Follow Charles to Beecher's Hope
You will go on your way to the ranch.
After a while you will be ambushed by the Skinner Brothers Gang. Your companion will be shot with an arrow.
4. Defeat the Skinner Brothers Gang
John will jump off the wagon and find a cover behind the fallen tree. Start shooting at your attackers. If you want to earn a gold medal, you can only use the sidearms. You will be attacked from different sides and some of your opponents will try to rush to you and attack you close up. These are particularly dangerous, don't let them get too close to you.
After this group is defeated, it will turn out that Wayne was taken. The toolbox has also disappeared. So you have to go to the rescue of Wayne and get your tools back.
5. Pursue the kidnappers into the woods / Defeat the Skinner Brothers
If you want to earn the gold medal, you must now find Mr. Wayne within 2 minutes and 15 seconds.
Head east, to the location marked on the map. When you get there, take cover behind the fallen tree. You'll be attacked by another group of Skinner Brothers. Two of them will be sitting on the trees. They are hardly visible, one is on the tree on the right and another is on the tree on the left. One of the requirements for a gold medal is that you headshot both of them. Do it before Charles shoots them. Then kill the others.
6. Follow Charles / Find Mr. Wayne
Once you've dealt with this group of enemies, keep on moving on with Charles and kill any more Skinner Brothers that stand in your way.
Eventually, you'll reach a few trees growing in the midst of the rocks. You should see a toolbox lying on the ground between the trees. When you come closer to pick it up, you will also see Mr. Wayne. Sadly, he is dead.
7. Pick up the tools / Return to the wagons / Place the tools onto the wagon / Get on the wagon / Go to Beecher's Hope
Charles will take Mr. Wayne's body and you will carry the toolbox. Go back to the wagons and put the box on the back of the first wagon.
Get on the first wagon and drive it to your ranch.
When you get there, you'll be greeted by Uncle and you'll start unloading wagons. And that's where this mission ends.
After completing The Tool Box you will get or will be able to get A New Jerusalem.
