	'''Drug Wars''' is a [[:Category:Side Missions\|side mission]] in [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]]. In these side missions, [[Luis Fernando Lopez\|Luis Lopez]] helps his friends [[Armando Torres]] and [[Henrique Bardas]] in build up their drug empire, by stealing it from other drug gangs in a variety of ways. There are 50 drug wars, similar to [[Grand Theft Auto: The Lost and Damned\|TLAD's]] [[Gang Warfare in The Lost and Damned\|Gang Warfare]], introduced to Luis by Armando after completing the mission [[Corner Kids]]. Their starting locations are marked on the map by pill icons. They become progressively more difficult, but the money earned increases as well. Every 10 Drug Wars completed gives the player a respawning weapon in Luis Lopez' [[Northwood Apartment]]. Completing 25 Drug Wars will raise the player's [[Completion in The Ballad of Gay Tony\|completion percentage]] and also unlock the "Snow Queen" [[Achievements in GTA IV\|achievement/trophy]].

Even after completing 50 of them, Luis can still engage in more Drug Wars as they are infinite; this was likely done by Rockstar to provide players with a playable activity after the primary story missions and other side-missions are completed, as well as the ability to continue earning money for the remainder of the game.
