Capture Arms Dealer

Capture Arms Dealer

The dealer has been spotted in a vehicle on the city streets of Peshawar’s eastern district. When the Ghosts reach the nearby insertion point via Blackhawk, they’re already under fire by hostiles. There’s no need to sneak around anymore, so prepare for an all-out assault. Once you’ve found cover behind a car, immediately get the UAV up in the air to spot hostiles hiding among the congested city streets. The UAV makes it easy to spot hostiles hiding among the cars. In addition to spotting enemies, the UAV is also useful for issuing focus-fire orders. Start by marking enemies nearby, as they pose the biggest threat to your team. By having your team focus their fire on one enemy at a time, you can quickly prioritize and eliminate threats.

Caution

Soon after arriving on the city street, there is a sniper on the second floor of this building near the intersection. If you don’t stay behind cover, you’re likely to be picked off by this guy. While behind cover, use the UAV to locate this sniper and issue a focus-fire order on him. You need to take him out quickly or else he’ll inflict heavy damage on your team.

Enemy Profile: Sniper

The sniper is a long-range static threat, similar to RPG soldiers. Snipers don’t move much and it can take them a while to acquire targets and reload. When encountering snipers, stay behind cover and never run out into the open. It is also wise to scan the snipers (with a Sensor or UAV) as it will show their laser sights in red. This is a good feedback to know when they are about to shoot. After that, it is a cat and mouse game in which you have to peek out of cover and shoot the sniper when he is reloading or acquiring a new target. Issuing focus-fire orders on snipers is also strongly advised.

Even after you’ve dealt with the first group of hostiles, always assume you’re under fire while moving through the streets. Fortunately, there is plenty of cover in the street. Instead of moving out of cover and advancing down the street, always utilize the cover swap method to move from one car to the next. This allows you to automatically sprint between covers, greatly minimizing your chances of getting hit by incoming fire. Even if you spot an incoming grenade, don’t pull out of cover manually. Quickly find a nearby vehicle to take cover behind, and use the cover swap feature to move out of the path of the incoming grenade. Moving from one vehicle to the next, work your way toward the intersection at the end of the street. Watch your fi re during this engagement. If you accidentally kill a civilian, the mission ends in failure.

Soon after reaching the intersection, your team comes under attack by more enemies, some of them armed with shotguns. Once again, deploy the UAV in an effort to identify the locations of the hostiles and mark them for your teammates. After using the UAV to pinpoint the locations of hostiles, exit the UAV view and help your team pick off enemies. The UAV continues updating enemy positions in real time if you leave it hovering above the street. There’s no need to be quiet any longer, so don’t bother using a suppressed weapon. You’re better served by a weapon possessing significant stopping power (such as an assault rifle or LMG). Pay close attention to the enemies equipped with shotguns. These guys are very aggressive and will attack at close range, potentially downing you or your teammates with a single shot. Identify and neutralize these shotgun-toting bad guys before they get too close for comfort. If necessary, consider retreating to maintain a safe distance.

Tip

If any of your teammates are brought down, you’ll need to heal them. Approach the body and then press (and hold) the button shown on-screen to begin the healing process. Before rushing toward a downed teammate, make sure the surrounding area is clear of threats. While healing a teammate you are exposed for a few seconds, making you vulnerable to incoming rounds. You won’t do your downed teammate any good if you get shot while trying to heal him.

Further down the street you encounter a few hostiles armed with RPGs. These enemies are extremely deadly, capable of destroying the very vehicles your team is using for cover—you don’t want to be near a vehicle that explodes! Either use the UAV to track down and mark these guys or simply follow the smoke trail of incoming rockets back to the shooter. Don’t waste any time taking these guys out. As soon as you identify them, take aim through your weapon’s scope and take them down with a headshot.

RPGs aren’t the only thing you need to watch for. You eventually encounter a couple of GAZ-2330 light vehicles, each armed with an automated machine gun turret. You need to destroy these vehicles before you can reach the target vehicles. Fortunately, GAZ-2330s can be destroyed with small arms fire or frag grenades. Mark these vehicles with a focus fire in order to take them out quickly. But when these vehicles open fire, make sure you are behind cover and access the UAV to mark each GAZ-2330. By ordering your team to focus fire on each vehicle, you stand a good chance of taking them out without exposing yourself to incoming fire. Alternately, peek out of cover and fire a quick burst at each vehicle to assist your team. Stay behind cover until both vehicles are destroyed.

An all-terrain 4x4 vehicle, designed for maximum performance in even the roughest environments, from scorching sand dunes to the freezing cold of Siberia. The armor on the Tiger will withstand considerable fire so find cover and have an extra magazine ready. The assault version comes equipped with a remote sentry gun.

Tip

Don’t forget to utilize your Sensors and Flashbangs during the advance through the street. Sensors are a great way to spot enemies hiding behind cover, highlighting them as red silhouettes on your HUD. In many instances, you can fire through the cars they’re hiding behind, allowing you to engage enemies without exposing yourself. Flashbangs are perfect for engaging enemies hiding among civilians. When these nonlethal devices explode, they temporarily blind and deafen anyone in their blast radius. This causes enemies to stumble around for a few seconds before they regain their composure. While enemies are stunned by Flashbangs, target them before they recover. As you near the target vehicle, you can restock your supply of Sensors and Flashbangs by interacting with an ammo crate in the middle of the street. There’s also a weapon box on the left side of the street that contains a PKP LMG.

Despite the urgency of the chatter, there are no time constraints during this advance. So there’s no need to rush. Stay behind cover and methodically identify and engage enemies as you encounter them. When you’re not shooting enemies yourself, use Sensors and the UAV to reveal the locations of hostiles for your teammates. Swap cover from one vehicle to the next while advancing toward the target vehicle, which is marked with a waypoint. When the word “Clear” appears on the HUD, all enemies have been eliminated.

Unfortunately, the arms dealer has gotten away. There’s nothing in the target vehicle but a beeping cell phone … attached to an explosive device. The Ghosts recognize the booby trap, giving them just a few seconds to get away from the vehicle before the bomb goes off. As the Ghosts regain their composure and brush the dust off themselves, Overlord reports that the dealer has secured a new vehicle and is on the move. You’ll have to track him from the air.

Overlord Intel Update:
Arms Dealer Identified

We’ve got positive ID on the dealer. She’s Russian. Katya Prugova. We’re working connections to see what we can find, but we’ve already got enough to be worried. Early reports have her linked to an international import-export corporation with known ties to criminal elements. These people are very good at making things disappear … weapons, money, people. If she goes to ground, we’re going to have a hell of a time digging her back up again. DIA’s involved, and our boys at NSA have a file, but nothing’s as good as a face-to-face. We need her alive, gentlemen. It’s a hornet’s nest down there. Looks like everyone with a gun is coming out to play. You’ll have to deal with them before you stop her. And you will stop her. Our birds don’t have the range to chase her into Afghanistan. If she makes the border, she’s as good as gone.
