Quest Group: Chapter 3 - Clemens Point
Category: Story Mission
Prerequisites: To play this mission, you must first complete the mission American Distillation.
To start this mission, you must first complete the American Distillation mission and then talk to Molly O'Shea. You will find her in your camp at Clemens Point.
Molly is worried about Dutch and wants to talk to you about him, but then Uncle interrupts your conversation and you start talking with him, Charles and Bill about something completely different.
Uncle receives a tip-off and rides out with Arthur, Charles and Bill to rob a wagon carrying payroll.
Follow Uncle. When you arrive near a crossing where a wagon should be passing, put a bandana on your face. After a while, you will see the wagon you are waiting for.
Ride up to the wagon. After a moment, the coachman should stop it.
Get off your horse and check the box at the back of the wagon. You will find a lot of cash in it.
Unfortunately, when you enjoy your take, another wagons and their guards will arrive and you will have to escape as quickly as possible. The guards will start chasing you.
Follow your companions as fast as you can. At some point you will turn into a forest and some time later you will reach the farm and decide to hide in the barn.
You will hide inside the barn and wait until nightfall.
After dark, when you were about to leave the barn, Cornwall's people, who are still looking for you, will come to the farm. The farm owner will tell them that he heard the sounds in the barn some time ago, and two guards will head towards the barn to check it out. One of them will enter the barn.
You have to stay hidden while the Cornwall's guards search the area. Just don't move.
When the guard is about to leave the barn, suddenly one of your companions does something that draws his attention and a shooting starts.
The opponents will attack the barn from all sides. Remember about the requirements to get a gold medal, i.e. high accuracy and a large number of head shots. Most of them you need to get during this shooting.
After some time the barn will start to burn so much that you will have to leave it.
Bill made a hole in one of the barn walls. Leave the barn through this hole and then run into the forest.
You split up, you follow Uncle.
Hide with Uncle behind a big rock.
Wait until the two enemies on your way pass through the rock, get behind them and quietly kill the one on the right.
Unfortunately, uncle will not be successful like you and will be knocked to the ground. You have to help him to score one of the requirements for a gold medal. If you don't do it fast enough, the old man will free himself after a while.
Run toward Charles and Bill and help them kill a few remaining enemies. It will be a few more opportunities to get some headshots.
Once you've dealt with all your opponents, your group will split up and this mission will be completed.
After completing this mission, you will be able to play the mission Preaching Forgiveness as He went.
