Mission walkthrough
-
Use the helicopter's firing angles
Lance handles the flying while Tommy shoots. Track enemies as the helicopter turns and give priority to gunmen with an unobstructed view of you. Use sustained fire when targets are exposed, but shift aim when a roof edge blocks the shot.
-
Clear the mansion approaches
Shoot the defenders around the grounds and upper levels as they enter view. Vehicles near enemies can provide explosive damage, but do not keep firing at empty scenery while an armed target remains active elsewhere.
-
Advance on foot
Once dropped off, take the entrance and stairs carefully. Tommy is now exposed without the helicopter's movement, so clear the next doorway or landing before running through it. Keep enough health for the upper-level confrontation.
-
Collect the rooftop money
Follow the objective to the roof, deal with the remaining opposition and pick up the money. The recovery completes the mission. Afterwards, mainland access opens, giving you more routes, shops and contacts to explore.
Key point
The flight and ground sections need different pacing. Shoot quickly from the helicopter, then slow down at doors and stairs once Tommy is on foot.
