How to unlock the Conqueror of Panau achievement in Just Cause 2 - Definitive Guide

This achievement is for completing all 9 stronghold missions, 3 for each faction.

To unlock these missions so that they show on the map, you'll need to meet each faction leader and start doing quests for them to increase their influence on the island. To start a mission, make your way to the icon on your map and you'll be transported to the mission start with a short explanation of the mission objectives.

All missions essentially require you to storm a government base whilst escorting a technician/hacker to an area where he can access the base defences. If the you or the hacker dies, you'll need to start the mission again.

General tips:

- Take your time but bear in mind the hacker and his team will slowly move forward and leave you behind if you're too slow. Try and keep youself between the enemy and the hacker at all times.

- The other team faction members you start with are useful but dispensible - only worry about keeping the hacker alive.

- If you see a gun turret, detach it and use it for as much of the mission as possible - the ammo will never run out. Bear in mind carrying this will slow you down, so try extra hard to keep up with your team.

- As you move through the base, take out any SAM sites you see. If you find a military helicopter, by all means use it, but beware of further SAMs you may not have found yet - these should be your first target and once they're out of the way, you should be able to dominate from the air.

- Try not to get distracted by destroying other targets while you move through the base - only base defences should be removed, everything else can be mopped up after the stronghold is yours.

- The end of the mission will always be a standoff while you wait for the hacker to do his thingand this usually ends with the base commander appearing in a tank or a helicopter. Usually there is a gun turret at these locations, so man it to take out the enemy troops and destory the commander's vehicle.

- Remember you can use your zip line to pull enemies from high walkways and roofs. There are usually many enemies in high places during these missions.

This helps with hardcore as there's more places to stage your base assaults from.

See the comment above yours, stitch. If you complete the main storyline before Stronghold takeovers, they won't be possible

When you bring up the map , you will see 4 bars in the lower right of your screen. The second one represents the amount of chaos needed to unlock the next 3 stronghold missions.
Earn chaos points by doing missions, destroying military objects, finding faction items and achieving 100% on locations.

Note: Strongholds serve as re-spawn points when you die outside of a mission. Having them all equals less traveling, so I suggest to do them whenever the occasion arises.

As explained above there are 3 stronghold takeovers for each faction, this totals 9 & you need to complete all 9 for this trophy. As you go through causing chaos and completing faction missions you will unlock more stronghold takeovers. On the map they look like a star and will be in the colours for each faction, see below for the missions available:

Reapers
– Red on the map
– Missions = Rocket Science; A Second Amendment; Chemical Compound

Roaches
– Blue on the map
– Missions = Free Trade; Oil For Blood; Paradise Valley

Ular Boys
– Yellow on the map
– Missions = Power Surge; Pilgrimage; Boys With Toys

If you open the PDA and press you can bring up a menu, go into ‘statistics’ and in here you can see how many stronghold takeovers you have completed.

Missions to storm a fortress are indicated by a five-pointed star. Blue, red and yellow.

Due to the fact that there are only nine of them (three fortresses for each of the three factions). To win the trophy you will have to capture everything . This is a banana plan.

1. Skirmish at the gate. Usually nothing complicated. We cross the perimeter of the fortress, win the mini-game to open the gate and go on to exploits.

2. Skirmish in the base. Also, nothing complicated; we monitor the health of the technician; we don’t get distracted by clearing the base; this can be done after capturing the fortress.

3. Contact point. You have to act quickly because behind the barricade there is usually an easel gun or a grenade launcher. you have to take it out first. The best tactic is to strike in the rear.

4. Defense of the communication point while the technician hacks it. Everything is simple until the helicopter appears. Most often, there is an easel tool, we stand behind it and crush everyone into a vinaigrette. When a helicopter appears, we grab it with a hook and go through the hijacking mini-game.
