Kenny thinks a rich buyer of stolen antiques knows where his stolen sword Yu Jian went. You intercept a dealer’s van, force it to stop without wrecking it, steal it and bring it back to his warehouse.
Before you start
Ramming or shooting the van both work, as long as you do not destroy it.
Objectives
- Intercept the dealer’s van.
- Force the van to stop without destroying it.
- Steal the van.
- Take the van back to Kenny’s warehouse, and watch your back for anyone trying to stop you.
- Park the van inside the warehouse.
Carpe ’Dime’ walkthrough
Kenny’s lead
Kenny has bought the warehouse and wants to use it. He believes a wealthy buyer of expensive stolen antiques connected to the Spanish Lords holds the key to his stolen sword. He asks you to steal one of the dealers’ vans and bring it back, saying it is your duty to separate such fools from their money.
Catch the van
Follow the intercept marker to the Meadow Hills area and chase down the dealer’s van. Stay close, because if the van gets too far away you fail. Ram it or shoot at it to force it to stop, but do not wreck it.
Steal it and drive back
When the van stops, jump in and take it. Other drivers try to stop you on the way to the warehouse, so drive the van back quickly to East Island City and park it inside the warehouse.
The hidden sword
Park in the warehouse and use the touch screen to cut away the panel and search the van for the sword. There is no sword, only a book listing recent deals made by the Spanish Lords. Kenny pays you in unlocks rather than cash. Visit the Liberty City Gun Club for the new Pump Shotgun round.
What fails this mission
Besides dying or being arrested, the mission ends if any of these happen:
- The van is destroyed
- The van gets too far away
After the mission
There is no cash payment, but you unlock a safehouse in Lancaster, the ability to steal gang Burritos for drugs and a Pump Shotgun round at the Liberty City Gun Club. Store Wars, Raw Deal and Driven to Destruction all open.
