Template:Infobox mission "Reclamation" is the third mission in Saints Row.

I got a tip that there's a turf war going on right now. If we crash their party, we can take all those sons of bitches out at once.
Troy to Julius Little and The Protagonist, while on their way to the docks.

Description

Julius Little is finally ready to clear out the Row for good, and, along with Troy, meets The Protagonist outside the church. Troy says he's received a tip that all opposing gangs in Stilwater are fighting in Harrowgate right now, and concedes now would be the perfect oppurtunity to clear them out of Saint's Row permanently.

After killing all three gang lieutenants and escaping the police, the 3rd Street Saints regroup back at the church, where Julius gives yet another speech on wiping out all three opposing gangs. Lin is introduced to The Protagonist. Julius assigns Lin to handle the Westside Rollerz, Dex to handle the Carnales, and Johnny Gat to handle the Vice Kings. He then asks The Protagonist to help his fellow gang in taking down their enemies, giving the player their first real choice in the game: what gang do they want to take out first?[1]

We did it, playa. Saint's Row is ours again. Don't think I'm finished with you yet, though. I'm holding a meeting at the church. Swing by when you can.
— Julius Little

Story

Upon completion of the Mission, this description is available on the 'Story' page, accessed from the 'INFO' tab of the pause menu.

After a phone call from Julius, you picked him and Troy up and drove them to the docks in Saint's Row, where a turf war between the Vice Kings, Los Carnales, and the Westside Rollerz was taking place. The three of you dropped all the rival gang members and secured 3rd Street's control over Saint's Row.

Gameplay

Gameplay from the mission.

This mission takes place after "Back to Basics", and becomes available after earning Respect by playing Activities and completing the "Abandoned Storefront" Stronghold. Once "Abandoned Storefront" has been completed, Julius calls The Protagonist and tells him to head to the church to begin the mission.

The mission is generally easy, pitting the player's knowledge of what they have learned from the game so far. After picking up Troy and Julius and driving to the destination, there are three gang lieutenants to kill: one Los Carnales gang member, one Vice Kings gang member, and one Westside Rollerz gang member. The gangs are fighting amongst themselves, as well as the 3rd Street Saints, making for a not-too-difficult mission.

Players should take their time as they slowly wipe out opposing gang members along the dock, being wary of enemy vehicles, explosives, and taking care not to run out of ammo or die. If the player runs low on health, take cover - health does recharge after a while of not taking damage. Alternatively, they can eat some food, which instantly heals a certain amount of health depending on what kind of food it is.

Once the player has wiped the waterfront clean, the police show up, and their final objective is to simply lose them. This is easier than it sounds; simply taking out the cops that show up is usually enough to complete this. If it isn't, though, the player may have to steal a cop car or a nearby Zomkah (or any other 4-door vehicle) and head to the Forgive and Forget. Either way, once the immediate threat of the police is over, head back to the church. Julius congratulates the player and is ready to give another speech to his gang.

After the speech, the game significantly opens up to the player, giving them the choice of taking down the Westside Rollerz (starting with "Stacking the Deck"), the Carnales (starting with "Crack Down"), and the Vice Kings (starting with "Aisha's Favor"). Each gang has their own story arc and missions, and as the player progresses with conquering each gang, Stilwater slowly comes under the control of the 3rd Street Saints, culminating with The Protagonist being promoted to second-in-command,[2] and a final trio of closing missions, beginning with "Stuffing the Ballot".

The mission can be failed by getting smoked or busted, or abandoning[3][4] or killing[5][6] Troy and/or Julius.

Trivia

File:Reclamation Julius and Troy hostile 2.JPG

Julius and Troy hostile.

  • At the beginning of the mission, the player must wait for Troy and Julius to join them. If the player shoots them enough times before they become Homies, they become hostile. The mission does not fail, but it becomes impossible to complete the mission, as it is not possible to drop them off at the church after losing the cops.
    • Using this method, it is possible to kill Troy or Julius.
    • It is possible to complete the mission using this method only if the player makes one of them hostile before they become Homies, not both.
    • It is also possible to instantly kill them using an RPG Launcher or Platinum Rocket Launcher before they become Homies or hostile towards the player.
    • If they do become hostile using said method, it is also possible to fight them using melee; they absolutely cannot die from fists or melee weapons, including hitting them using weapons (as long as they are not shot at).
  • At the end of the mission Julius Little congratulates The Protagonist on completely taking back Saint's Row, and states to swing by whenever they can for a meeting, despite the fact that the meeting plays immediately after completing the mission.[1]
    • Originally, the Divide and Conquer cutscene at the church was originally going to be part of a cutscene-only mission named "The Best Defense...", but was merged with Reclamation.
  • The mission can be completed quickly by staying inside a vehicle throughout the mission.
File:Reclamation car exploding.JPG

The scripted event involving a burning vehicle and an Aqua causing it to explode.

  • A scripted event can be seen after killing the Carnales lieutenant and moving further east towards the Vice Kings lieutenant - a Vice Kings' vehicle, already on fire, is smashed into by a Westside Rollerz gang member driving an Aqua, exploding it and sending it flying into the sea.
    • Furthermore, the Aqua cannot be entered.
  • Use the Forgive and Forget is not required in order to lose the police, although sometimes it is faster.
  • This is the first time Lin appears, the only 3rd Street Saints lieutenant not seen yet.
  • When Julius asks Troy to handle the Vice Kings in the "Divide and Conquer" cutscene, he answers back, saying "not a chance". Julius replies, "Fuck you say?". Although it is never expanded upon, Troy most likely does not want to fight the Vice Kings because they are colluding with the Stilwater Police Department, and Troy himself is an undercover cop.
    • This scene is also referenced in Saints Row 2; where The Protagonist has the same role as Julius and assigns Shaundi to handle the Sons of Samedi. She asks "it's gotta be them?", with The Protagonist replying "Fuck you say?"[7]
  • In the game files, there is an extra objectives regarding going to the Liquor Store to buy some liquor.[8]
  • The Saints Row demo ends upon completion of the mission, and the game exits to the main menu.

Julius Little: "Hope you're strapped, playa, cause we're about to go in hard."
Troy: "I ain't gonna lie to you, when we go in there it's gonna get rough... Julius, you sure it's cool we take this kid instead of Johnny?"
Julius Little: "Troy, you worry too much, the kid'll be fine."
Julius Little: "Don't worry playa, you stick with Troy and me you'll be fine."
Julius Little: "[If the player shoots Julius enough times to make him hostile (the mission will fail short after)] You never had a chance."
Julius Little: "[If the player shoots Julius enough times to make him hostile (the mission will fail short after)] I'd run if I were you."
Julius Little: "[Once the player has killed all three gang lieutenants] What did I tell ya, Troy? The kid's a natural."
Troy: "The cops are comin' man, we gotta lose 'em..."

"Divide and Conquer" cutscene

Julius Little: "Listen up, people. I got some serious shit to discuss. Yeah, we cleared out the Row. You think for a second that's gonna stop 'em? Unless we wipe all these muthafuckas out, they're gonna keep comin', and they ain't gonna be happy. It ain't gonna be settled until the Carnales, the Rollerz, and the Vice Kings ain't nothin' but a memory."
Julius Little: "Dex, you got the Carnales. Ever since they hooked up with the Colombians, it's like they own this town, and with that drug money rolling in, we can't compete. Be smart on how you move against 'em. The Lopez family been runnin' that gang for thirty years. There's a reason they still around."
Dex: "Got it."
Julius Little: "Troy, you're dealing with the Vice Kings."
Troy: "Not a chance..."
Julius Little: "Fuck you say?"
Troy: "Anyone but them."
Julius Little: "You scared of going against Benjamin King?"

Julius Little: "[To Dex] Keep an eye on ya boy."
Johnny Gat: "I don't need a fucking babysitter Julius."
Julius Little: "Keep an eye on ya boy."
Dex: "Who's got the Rollerz?"
Lin: "I do."
Johnny Gat: "Lin? The fuck you wearin' blue for?"
Julius Little: "I asked Lin to hook up with the Rollerz. We don't know much about these fuckas, so I wanted one of us on the inside."
3rd Street Saints gang member: "I didn't think the Rollerz pimped hos..."
Lin: "[After hitting him] Any other comments?"
Johnny Gat: "Yeah, when you punch, don't throw your shoulder so much..."
Lin: "Shut up, Johnny."
Johnny Gat: "Hey, I'm just sayin'."
Julius Little: "[To The Protagonist] Once we're done here go talk to one of these guys. They'll have something for you to do. It's our time now. Let's get this shit started."
