Batman Arkham Knight Own the Roads Most Wanted Mission

There are a total of 20 checkpoints in the game, all of which are provided below:

As we all know segmentnext messed up and forgot to add the 4th location, So I went ahead and added for you all. I will not be giving a guide for every location as its not very needed but segmentnext went ahead and did that for me! So I will be leaving a spoiler with some tips on how to do each checkpoint, But afew tips that helped me is use the bat mobile as much as possible. Some places you'll be able to bring in with you so do so! It will help!

EDIT: Some places require you to activate a console to open.

Credit to segmentnext for the map!

Checkpoint tips:

Checkpoint 1
Location: Bleake Island – Chinatown, south of Scarecrow’s safe house

The checkpoint commander is protected by 3 Sentry Guns. Use the Remote Hacking Device to blind the one on the outer side and use a Smoke Pellet to destroy the one in the center. A Silent Takedown can be performed on the commander after destroying the last one.

Checkpoint 2
Location: Bleake Island – Chinatown, next to Perdition Bridge

Start off by disposing off some soldiers and a brute followed by using the Remote Hacking Device to turn the security access panel off.

Head inside the newly opened area on the right side of the building and perform a Ledge Takedown on the soldier on the ledge before disposing of the commander inside.

Checkpoint 3
Location: Bleake Island – Chinatown, next to Tattoo Parlor

This checkpoint is located on the north of the Clock Tower, protected by 2 Sentry Guns along the north wall.

Inside the walls, you will come across 16 thugs including 2 Medics, 2 Brutes, 2 Combat Experts, and 2 armed thugs. Use the Batmobile to destroy the Sentry Guns outside and knock down enemies before finishing them off one by one – Medics first and Brutes last.

Checkpoint 4
Location: Bleake Island – Chinatown, northeast of hospital

This checkpoint is weakly guarded by a single Brute and 4 unarmed thugs. Start off with a Gliding Kick and finish the rest by any means you find effective.

Checkpoint 5
Location: Miagani Island – Kingston, west of Mercy Bridge

This checkpoint is protected by 7 unarmed soldiers and a Brute. While staying undetected, perform a Fear Multi-Takedown on the enemies in order to thin their ranks and finish off the commander.

Checkpoint 6
Location: Miagani Island – Kingston, Ranelagh Ferry Terminal

You will come across 2 Checkpoint Drones and 5 armed soldiers protecting this checkpoint.

It is recommended to use the Heavy Cannon to destroy the weapons and use the Riot Suppressor to deal with the soldiers before taking on the commander. Moreover, remember to check the crates hiding enemies inside.

Checkpoint 7
Location: Miagani Island – Bristol, Elliot Memorial Hospital

This checkpoint is protected by 8 unarmed soldiers and a couple of Brutes. Start the brawl with a Fear Multi-Takedown or Silent Takedown and dispose of enemies one by one before focusing your attention on the commander.

Checkpoint 8
Location: Miagani Island – Bristol, Urbarail Station

Use the Batmobile and enter the area from either northeast or southwest edge, but beware of the Shock Mines placed around the area. Deal with the soldiers inside and move to the commander to finish things off.

Checkpoint 9
Location: Miagani Island – Bristol, Botanical Gardens

This checkpoint is surrounded by 8 armed thugs and 2 Checkpoint Drones. In order to deal with the weapons, use the Batmobile and enter from the northeast edge of the area using the Heavy Cannon.

Grapple to a high point to deal with 3 armed soldiers using a Fear Multi-Takedown and then dispose of the commander.

Checkpoint 10
Location: Miagani Island – Kingston, Grand Avenue intersection

This checkpoint is protected by 5 soldiers and 2 Medics. Start off the brawl by disposing of the Medics and then divert your attention to soldiers and the commander.

Checkpoint 11
Location: Miagani Island – Bristol, west of south bridge

6 armed soldiers consisting of a Boa Sentry Drone Operator protect this checkpoint near the west of the south bridge.

Start off the brawl from the south side and use Silent Takedowns to deal with 2 lone soldiers and move to the west side to deal with 4 more; one at a time using Fear Multi-Takedown.

Checkpoint 12
Location: Founders’ Island – Ryker Heights, base of City Vision Construction building

This checkpoint is protected by a Checkpoint Drone and 5 armed thugs.

Head over to the north side and grapple to the left side of the wall to find a security access panel that can be used to disable the Checkpoint Drone. Once this is done, use the Riot Suppressor to deal with the armed soldiers and then look for the commander.

Checkpoint 13
Location: Founders’ Island – Drescher, east of City Vision Construction

Start the brawl with a Glide Kick on the soldier outside and make your way inside the area. You will encounter 4 soldiers and 4 Combat Experts inside. Avoid getting hit by the Stun Sticks and use the Remote Electrical Charge to deal with them.

Checkpoint 14
Location: Founders’ Founders’ Island – Drescher

Head over to the northwest edge and use the Power Winch to destroy a weak wall followed by using the Batmobile to destroy the Sentry Guns and soldiers inside the wall. Once you have taken care of everything, find the commander and dispose of the controller.

Checkpoint 15
Location: Founders’ Island – Drescher, southeast of Perdition Bridge
Start things off with a Glide Kick and begin the brawl with 7 soldiers, 2 Brutes, and 2 armed soldiers. I recommend dealing with the armed men before anything else.

Checkpoint 16
Location: Founders’ Island – Ryker Heights, south of Wayne International Plaza

This checkpoint is protected by 6 Checkpoint Drones and a handful of armed soldiers. In order to deal with everything, drive the Batmobile to the north wall and grapple onto the overhead power cable.

Use the Remote Hacking Device to toggle the remote switch in order to open the area for the Batmobile and use your Heavy Cannon to destroy the Checkpoint Drones followed by disposing of the thugs and the commander.

Checkpoint 17
Location: Founders’ Island – Otisburg, northeast at T-intersection

To start things, deal with 3 weapons along the north wall and use your Fear Multi-Takedown to thin the ranks of 5 armed soldiers near the north side of the area before looking for the commander and destroying the controller.

Checkpoint 18
Location: Founders’ Island – Otisburg, next to Amertek building

A squad of 9 soldiers and a Brute protect the commander from any harm. Use your Fear Multi-Takedown to thin the enemy ranks and dispose of the soldiers before looking for the commander.

Checkpoint 19
Location: Founders’ Island – Otisburg, south of Penitence Bridge

This checkpoint is protected by a handful of armed soldiers. Just beware of the Stun Sticks and weapons in the area and you should be good to go.

Checkpoint 20
Location: Bleake Island – Chinatown, southwest of the Clock Tower

You need to head across the water and deal with the cannons and soldiers on the other side. Find any stragglers before finding the commander and destroying the last controller.

If you have any question or having trouble on one of them just leave a comment and I try to help you as best I can!

I'm not going to write a walkthrough for each of the roughly twenty militia checkpoints, but will give an overview/tips to completing the mission.

Thanks to good Super man for this map of checkpoint locations! -

(From Hydrolex the map is missing 1 checkpoint on bleake island. there are 4 and your map shows only 3.
the missing one is left of oracles clock tower and right of the perdition bridge. roughly you can say its on the lower left side. moving there you should find it.)

The checkpoints will need to be unlocked by playing through the main story campaign (you won't get all of them unlocked until after 90% of the main campaign is completed), and will be identifiable by the large red barriers with the Arkham Knight's symbol on them. The goal is to take down all the militia soldiers inside of them, and then identify the checkpoint commander with detective vision to find his body and pick up and destroy his command radio.

As you progress in the story, the checkpoints will become increasingly more difficult to clear: they start with just simple batches of villains, and then will start to incorporate small sentry guns that you will need to blind with your remote hacking device. Some will have giant sentry guns that you will need to destroy with the Batmobile, which means either finding a ramp to launch yourself into the area, or using detective vision to identify an electronically-locked door which you will need to hack open to give your Batmobile access to the inside of the compound, allowing you to shoot down the giant turrets.

It is always a good idea to scope out the checkpoint before attacking, using your disruptor to sabotage any medics, chain gun brutes, or drone pilots. Take your time, play it smart, and eliminate the threats.

If you're going to downvote, at least tell me what I can do better.

Adding!

may want to mention that the big sentry drones can be Disrupted with an upgrade so they explode when they target you. Number 9 is really easy to clear like that. Disrupt the two turrets and takedown the lone guard on the East, the turrets notice you, explode and take out everyone.

Can this achievement be gotten prior to defeating the Arkham Knight on the tank?

By Crazie Irish on 20 Jul 2015 19:00

No, not all will unlock until

By unequalized joe on 20 Jul 2015 19:10

Completely cleared all objectives throughout Gotham before finishing the game but this is the only one that didn't pop for me. Gonna try again on NG+ and see if that pops it. Anyone else have that problem?

In order to earn the trophy that's called "Streets of Gotham", you have to explore all three islands and search for militia checkpoints. If you are nearby one, the game will alert you to that checkpoint and it is up to you to destroy it in the way you see fit.

One piece of advice that I'll give is that you leave this as one of the missions for last as you should make sure to upgrade both Batman and the Batmobile to its fullest extent as best as possible. That way, you'll be fully ready to tackle on this trophy without much problem.

Here is an excellent video guide for this trophy, as it shows you all the locations and what's necessary to do for each checkpoint. All credit goes to BatmanArkhamVideos for creating and posting the guide on their Youtube channel.

Have fun and good luck!

This achievement is earned for completing the "Own the Roads" Most Wanted Side Mission.

This side mission will unlock a little later in the game, there is no notification for this one it will simply unlock as soon as you get close to your first militia checkpoint. Unlike the other side missions you will not be prompted with new locations for the checkpoints, however they are quite easy to find while you fly around the islands and they will pop up on your mini map as soon as you get close. There are a total of 20, 4 on Bleake Island and 8 each on Founders Island and Miagani Island, if you are missing any all 20 are show on the map below.
