Mission walkthrough

  1. Recruit two gang members

    Use the recruit command on suitable Grove Street members and take them with Cesar to the meeting at Unity Station. Bring a vehicle with room for the group.

  2. Clear the neighbourhood

    Advance with Cesar and the veteranos through the marked enemies. Use cover and avoid running so far ahead that the allies remain in an uncleared firing lane.

  3. Fight through the alley

    Follow the alley objective and protect Cesar as attackers arrive from the surrounding positions. Watch the radar and clear close threats before moving to the next corner.

  4. Eliminate the heavy-weapon enemies

    At the final positions, prioritise attackers with a rocket launcher or flamethrower. Engage from a useful distance and keep CJ out of the flames and blast area.

  5. Finish the remaining Vagos

    Clear the last marked enemies and complete the reunion. If the finale is not available afterward, continue taking gang territory until Sweet provides the final lead.

Key point

Do not bunch up directly beside the heavy-weapon attackers. Their attacks can harm several companions at once, making them the first targets to deal with.
