Mission 74 of 90Story mission
Briefing
A cocaine shipment has to be collected by sea, and Phil comes along. The mission runs van, boatyard, boat, and then a running fight down the water as rival craft come in on both sides before the drop-off.
It is the mission where Phil stops being a voice on the phone and becomes somebody Niko works alongside — including the part where he gets ahead of himself.
Objectives
- Go to the truck
- Drive to the boatyard on Charge Island
- Get through the boatyard with Bell
- Go to the coke boat
- Follow Bell to the drop-off point
- Protect Bell from the attacking boats
- The attackers have been killed — follow Bell to the drop-off point
- Disembark onto the jetty
Walkthrough
The shed
Get out of the van and take the first Russian before the yard knows anybody has arrived. Then work the shed from cover — there are men above as well as ahead, and Phil pushes forward faster than is good for him, so he needs watching.
To the boats
More of them stand between the shed and the water. Phil takes the right-hand boat and Niko the left.
On the water
Two Russian boats come in during the run to North Holland. Aim for the driver rather than the boat — he is not protected, and once he is down the boat stops following.
The jetty
Disembarking is its own objective, so the mission is not over until Niko is off the boat and in the marker.
