What if we drop the hollow caltrops from our drone, and when the truck crashes (or otherwise stops) we pretend to be a concerned citizen, arriving to render aid while using knockout-filled injector rings? It's not like we're on some wanted list, and even if someone questions us we can just flash one of our IDs and use our vastly superior intellect to convince bystanders we're legit.

Of course, should the caltrops fail, we could do the thing with the standing and the mask and everything, but if we can manage to subdue the personnel without alerting anyone else, what's to stop us from just driving the truck back to the garage lab and taking everything?

Other than that (and spending precious time creating a crossbow), I +1 Fallacy's plan.

We could claim to be to a off-duty Military Biomedical scientist if we're caught, also would it be possible to make some hollow caltrops filled with nitroglycerin to really mess up the truck. We also want to keep that truck as far away from the garage as possible, I feel Peaceforce might want a little revenge.

@Paphi  I'd suggested something similar.  I think the risk is a bit too high, but no one had weighted in on the idea.  This is one of the things were people need to discuss it before Chiefwaffles puts up an updating post.

Okay, we convince everybody we're legit. Then we drive the truck to where it's definitely not supposed to go. Through the CCTV cameras and everything. The next day, the exhibit still hasn't arrived. Witnesses know what we look like because we didn't use a mask.

So I'm -1ing this unless it's improved further. There are ways to improve this plan I've noticed.

Actually how do we plan to sell stolen arts once/if we've stolen it? we can't exactly just post it up on Ebay can we?

+1 to -1 to whatever involves showing our face as obviously being involved in the heist. Better to just wait for the next chance and have some robots/drones ready to do it all remotely...

Most art is just ransomed back, but this probably isn't worth enough. So we'll probably just hang it up in our garage.

I can't really think of anything to offer to improve it, so... yeah. Getting too personal in the heist is probly a poor idea.

We'll deal with the art when we have it.  For now, we pretending to be concerned is out of the question because:
A) unpopular. 
B) Risky.  This is why I was asking about the climate.  If it was cold/wintry to some degree, we could probably pull off wearing a balaclava and being a concerned citizen.  Without, we're dead in the water. 

For now, concentrate on 1)getting the vehicle off the road.  2) Breaking the lock.  3) not getting caught or killed.

We would need a gas mask and it wouldnt affect CCTV also where the hell are we going to get so much hallucinogens without being traced.

You know if we could gas an entire district we wouldn't be raiding a small time art truck.


EDIT: Lets go with the Caltrops and venom launcher idea since we already have the resources to do it and not get caught.


also sorry if I offend any one with my earlier post I had just got done working six hours in freezing rain.
