Just wondering..what triggers the reward for Blair's rescue? I escorted Blair and his wife to the airport and it was recorded down in my log. This was Day 21. I forwarded to Day 40 but no SAW?? Is there something I missed?

Thanks in advance for any help. Cheers!

I believe the trigger is number of towns liberated (probably 5). I received Blair's message, even though I hadn't met him yet, after taking most of the major towns (Atremo, Calisto, Galileo, Troy, and Drake).

I think you're wrong Ninth

I was nowhere near that far when they showed up. Had calisto, sheraton, and was fighting in port kip. They showed up bout a week after I dropped Blair at the airport just like the automags.

If you havent recieved them in that long Blade, something else went wrong

Did you go through all the dialog options (he's so greatful, the queen may knight you) and get the money from his wife?

LOL BTW does anyone else think blair looks like john cleese? I was waiting for him to silly walk to the plane Smile

Looks like I'm not the only one having trouble finding people in the game :wave:

I'm at the point in the game where I have reached a kinda stalemate. Just took care of the bug problem in Calisto and retraining militia again, lost my central SAM site, Troy morale still bad, and my 2 merc support squad in Rudesa being surrounded by a host of elite red dots.

Pretty spread out now my squads, and was hoping to find Carmen cos I got a head for him, and also to get the SAWs to arm Morgan and Haywire.

btw, with regard to my Blair/SAW problem, I killed the pablo guy sometime in between, and Sal took his place. Then I move a merc to speak to him and he says,' I got a heavy delivery for you' or something. Greased his palms but still no SAW..arghhhh

But all in all, it's a darn good game. All these 'snags' just makes it all the more challenging and realistic, and makes me wanna keep on plugging away, just like in real life Smile

The only thing you need to do is to rescue Blair, escort him to Calistio and walk him to the chopper.

Then wait a week or so, you'll get an e-mail.

When you open the crate where Bobby Ray shipments arrive you will notice 1,2 or no SAW. All depends on if someone stole the MG's.

No Blair in my game either. Mad Mad I've looked every where. But I guess part of the fun of JA2 games is the randomness of some event and the different ways you can do things.

As soon as I received Blair's email, I sent two mercs to the airport. As soon as they entered the sector and before walking over to Pablo, I checked the sector inventory screen and found both SAWs sitting there. Grabbed them from the inventory screen and then talked to Pablo. Got the usual bull from him, gave him a couple of bucks but he didn't mention the special shipment but I already had the two guns in my posession.

Interesting! Very Happy

Possibly, but I don't think so. I received Blair's message as soon as I liberated my 5th town, Drake (and right after the Queen cutscene). I hadn't even met Blair yet, which naturally caused some confusion.

This does not mean, however, that there couldn't be another trigger. Naturally, if you've conquered Sheraton earlier and met Blair, you'll get the message sooner. However, I did not touch Sheraton when I received the message...I did however conquer FIVE cities. So there are probably two triggers:

1) Conquered Sheraton, rescued Blair, and escorted him to airport.

OR

2) Conquered 5 towns (even if one of those towns is not Sheraton, and you didn't talk to Blair!)

@Blade: Maybe in your case,trigger #1 didn't work because Sal, instead of Pablo, was overseeing the shipments?

I still think you should take a 5th town and see if that works.

@ Ninth Hour,

I'll give it a go. It will be interesting if it confirms that there is more than one trigger for the SAWs Smile

Hi.

I got two SAWs a week or so after escorting Blair and wife to the chopper.

THEN I got two more (and his thank you mail) when I had liberated five cities.

Go me!

After liberating 5 cities Miguel & Carlos became available for hire in the original JA2.
Dont know if this trigger and all the .exe hacking is connected to a second shippment of Blairs 2 SAWs.

@ Bearpit,

that brings up another question. Which cities are considered the in the 5? The ones that provide mine income, or are shown as having percentage loyalty? Port Kip/San Mona doesnt, does it count?

Hey Blade, Pablo or Sal didn't steal the SAW's.
CatNRice did, he got 4 of them, LOL Wink
Well, I never found Bruce, and I checked every sector 3 times, of course I said hi to a lot of bad dudes, but they fell asleep.

Anyways, so I got rid of Miranda, moved on to Sheraton, got Blair out, now I am waiting for the reward.

Always works for me - I get the two SAWs. I've never tried anything else, though, except break out Blair after I take the (um, what was the name of the Northwest town? Chitzena in the original, I think) SAM site and hiring Trevor to lockpick the jail house. And, I only give Pablo $100 once and it's good enough to keep his hands off the merchandise for the whole game.

I got my reward kinda strange actually.
Because with those 2 M249's I got 2 clips of 7.62 NATO 20 Round Clip AP ammo.
LOL, guess that was a little funny actually.
