Mission walkthrough

  1. Unlock and prepare

    Complete Benson Burner! or Greatest Hits! to access this yellow-phone follow-up. Bring health, armour and explosives for the army-base entry.

  2. Open the base gate

    Go to Camp Banks and destroy the generator beside the locked entrance. Move back from your own explosives, then enter once the gate opens.

  3. Reach the tank

    Fight through the soldiers guarding the route and the tank. Take the vehicle as soon as the approach is safe rather than remaining inside the base for optional combat.

  4. Deliver to Disgracelands

    Drive out and follow the route through the RV park to the delivery garage. A heavy wanted response follows the theft; keep moving and avoid getting wedged into corners where attackers can concentrate fire.

Key point

The tank must be delivered intact. Its strength makes the escape easier, but it does not remove the vehicle-survival requirement.
