Regulator HQ

The Regulator HQ is a farmhouse that serves as the headquarters of the Capital Wasteland Regulators. It is located north of the Wheaton Armory and west of Canterbury Commons.

Background
The coordinates for this location are only given to you once you have the Lawbringer perk. It is impossible to get inside without said perk as the door will be locked and will require a key. Also, the Regulator HQ marker will not appear on your map, even if you go right up to the door.

Layout
Inside the Regulator HQ, three Regulators can be found along with Sonora Cruz who will take the fingers you retrieve from dead bodies of evil non-player characters (if you get the killing hit on them and have the lawbringer perk). The bounty is normally five caps per finger, but players with a Very Good karma rating (above 750) will receive ten. Outside stand four brahmin which can sometimes be seen being tended to by Sonora.

Notable loot

 * There is a copy of Guns and Bullets under the bed next to Sonora Cruz.
 * There is a Nuka-Cola Quantum in the room with the tub, in one of the locker's open compartments.
 * The nearby Chinese Army Mobile Command HQ is home to a copy of Chinese Army: Special Ops Training Manual and a possible random encounter location.

Appearances
The Regulator HQ appears only in Fallout 3.

Bugs

 * On the east wall of the first floor, between two lockers, there is a wooden panel. At the bottom of the panel there are two empty whiskey bottles which can't be picked up, even with significant attempts to use camera & perspective tricks.
 * Placing a waypoint near this location and then trying to follow it on the compass will result in you facing the wrong way.
 * Sometimes when entering the HQ, a deathclaw or albino radscorpion may spawn inside. Simply exiting then entering again seems to solve the problem.
 * As mentioned above in the Notes section, Sonora Cruz may flee from enemies outside the Regulator HQ and disappear permanently. If she does come back however, she may constantly be stuck in 'flee' mode, and attempting to interact with her will result in the message "Sonora Cruz is fleeing" making it impossible to interact with her, or receive rewards for fingers.
