After clearing out the houses by the railway, they head deeper in the turf on an alleyway. The Vagos manage to injure Hazer shortly before being completely cleared out.

Los Desperados is the penultimate central storyline mission and one of the last two in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, given to protagonist Carl "CJ" Johnson by Mexican-American Varrios Los Aztecas gang leader Cesar Vialpando from deuteragonist and Grove Street Families leader Sean "Sweet" Johnson's house in Ganton, Los Santos, San Andreas.

Mission

Carl drops by Sweet's house in Grove Street and starts to talk about the hood and the riot going on. After a little argument, Cesar Vialpando, a close friend, appears and says that his hood is screwed up and he needs to get his gang back together. Carl agrees and they recruit two Grove Street gang members for help while meeting up with three Aztecas veterans, Sunny, Hazer and Gal in Unity Station.

Upon arriving there, they all start to attack the waves of Vagos gang members protecting El Corona. After clearing out the houses by the railway, they head deeper in the turf on an alleyway. The Vagos manage to injure Hazer shortly before being completely cleared out. The crew go to the serious part of the district and the last wave of Vagos have gang members carrying flamethrowers and rocket launchers. Carl and the rest of the team manage to survive the gunfight, thus the Aztecas taking over El Corona. Cesar and his fellow homies decide to get Hazer to a hospital and thank Carl for helping out.

Reward

The reward for completing this mission is an increase in respect and the final central storyline mission End of the Line is unlocked, however atleast 35% of territories , nearly around 19-20, must be taken over by the Grove Street Families in order to start the mission.

Trivia

  • Successive to this mission, the gang warfare mini-game sub-mission that follows suit before End of the Line can be skipped if Carl acquires enough gang territory after Riot. However, while there is also a method to skip the gameplay of this mission itself, the procedure to that in itself is quite complicated and may not work in most versions of the game, especially the PC version.
  • Curiously, while this mission states that it is the Vagos who have taken over the Aztecas' turf, before the mission, the gang war radar has it as the Ballas instead, meaning that drug trade relations between the two gangs had naturally expanded to include territory, but only for the Aztecas, as the Ballas had assumed complete control of all turf belonging to the Grove Street Families after The Green Sabre, since they were first allies to secondary antagonist Melvin "Big Smoke" Harris, who only included the Vagos later on when they agreed to drive out the anti-narcotic Aztecas and cooperate with Smoke in plaguing the city completely with drugs.
