This game guide for The Godfather II offers a very detailed and thorough walkthrough of all the missions of the singleplayer campaign. Description of each mission offers insight on completing objectives, building an illegal empire and eliminating enemies without taking too much risk. There are a lot of screenshots in the walkthrough, providing much needed help in recognizing important locations and showing areas on the game's map.
Aside from the primary assignments you can find descriptions of all available side missions which are about corrupt officials and bank robberies. It's also worth mentioning that this guide contains a separate chapter describing all of the game's main elements like crime rings, the ring's connections, the books and family tree.
The Godfather II is the second instalment in the series of games based on the book and the movie trilogy. You control Dominic, who is building his family and earning respect, to finally become a powerful Don.

Cities
You will be using this tool all the time. The action takes place in three different locations: on Cuba, in New York and in Florida. The first two are similar in size, while the third one is significantly bigger. You will travel between them using a plane.
Safehouse - you're always safe here
Compound - the mob's headquarters
Front - you can launder money here
Business: Gambling
Business: Arms Smuggling
Business: Diamond Smuggling
Business: Chop Shop
Business: Adult Entertainment
Business: Prostitution
Business: Drugs
Business: Construction
Business: Gun Running
Airport - You will get to other locations thanks to it
Hospital
Bank - you can rob it
Police station
Corrupt Officials
New York
It's not too big and you won't find anything else here, apart from a couple of businesses, police station, courthouse, one bank and a hospital. There are three mob compounds here - one of Corleone and two belonging to the Rosato brothers.
Florida
It's the biggest location in the game. There are a lot of businesses to take over and quite some corrupted officials looking for someone to take care of the dirty work. Apart from that there are also two banks and hospitals, a police station and two mob compounds. It's worth learning the map to move freely here.
Cuba
It's quite a small location. You will find some businesses here, president's Castro palace, a bank, police station and of course the airport. One mob has its compound here. Unlike the American cities, there's lots of police and road blocks here. So in case you steal a car or run over a pedestrian, be ready for the police to work faster.
Family Tree
You see the members of the family that you created here. You can improve their abilities, choose weapons and send them to a given location to take it over, blow it up or defend from an attack.
In the beginning you are all alone, but you recruit more soldiers with time. Being the Don, you are the strongest. Your men have special abilities. When one of you soldiers has a speciality, you can promote him to a capo and choose a 2nd speciality for him. Capos also are more resistant. After that you can promote one of them another time and he becomes the underboss, letting you choose a 3rd speciality.
There are several specialities, which offer various possibilities:
- Engineer - he will cut fences in some places allowing you to get into inaccessible locations; near each Business there is a case - the engineer can cut the cables so that the attacked guards won't call for backup;
- Bruiser - he breaks down some close doors and destroys phones so that the attacked guards can't call for help;
- Safecracker -a very important speciality, he will open every safe and some doors (locked with a lock)
- Medic - he can revive you men if they fall in battle; he's essential in the later part of the game;
- Arsonist -he sets fire in designed places, like containers with flammable substances or a bar;
- Demolitions - he can demolish broken walls; by placing explosives at a designed place, he can blow up a business or even a whole compound; he can also blow up a car.
Each time you can use a special ability, an icon representing it will appear. It means that a bruiser can't break each closed door, only those that have a yellow fist symbol on them. To use a given speciality, target the place (a car, fence, a door or a safe) and press "C". Formally you don't have any abilities, but you can reanimate a fallen mate.
Upgrades are also an important aspect. You can improve your own abilities, as well as the abilities of your family members. By doing so, you can get out of the prison quicker in case of getting caught, get the special actions done faster and inflict more damage. Improve your men and they will be more helpful. Don't forget about upgrading yourself (in fact it should be your priority).
Your family consists of several men, but only three at a time can work as a crew. Of course you work with normal soldiers at the beginning, later on try to work with the best (in the end with the underboss and two capos). When you will have more family members, use them to defend your businesses - send them there in case of an attack.
At the same time you can see the members of other families, get to know it they're alive or not and if they're hospitalized.
The Don's Connections
Corrupted officials are people on high positions that give you certain missions (you will find a description of those missions in the last chapter of the guide). In exchange for completing them they will repay you by letting you use their connections - they can call of the police, rebuild your business or heal your wounded soldiers or capos quickly. When you complete a task, those actions will appear at your Back Pocket.
In Favours you will find missions taken from common citizens - pedestrians. There can be missions for cash or info (on the whereabouts of enemy families and the best way to kill them)
The Books
Each mob has its book-keeping. Here you can check how much you earn and how much you spend on security or bribes. You can also check how many businesses you own. In the other sections you can get info on the safes you cracked, execution methods and other achievements.
Crime rings
All the places of one Business type form a Crime Ring. Owning every such place gives you a full control over a given kind of Business, which involves a certain bonus. There are several Business types in the game and as many Crime Rings. Here are the bonuses for each:
- Gambling - you and your team inflict double damage with guns;
- Arms Smuggling - you can carry double the amount of explosives;
- Diamond Smuggling - you and your family members (including the guards) receive bulletproof vests that will cut the damage you receive by half;
- Chop Shops - you will be given access to armoured cars; you will find them in every hideout and in the Chop Shops;
- Adult Entertainment - you will pay less for the guards;
- Prostitution - you and your family will receive knuckle-dusters and will inflict more damage while fighting hand-to-hand;
- Drugs - the income from selling drugs will be doubled
- Construction - rebuild your blown up Businesses twice faster;
- Gun Running - ammo capacity will be increased;
When a one of the Businesses will be blown up or the owner will get killed, you will lose the bonus until you rebuild the building or the owner recovers, so it's wise to defend your places.
Places of interest
Apart from Businesses, in the three cities you will find police stations, airports, banks, hospitals and Fronts, in which you will launder your cash. Additionally there are family compounds, but also hideouts - each in a different location.
Your goal is to take over the cities, by killing the rival families and take control of their Businesses. Although the police are present, you won't have too much problems with them, apart from some situations. When you do, it's always wise to run to one of your hideouts (you will find one in each of the three locations).
You will be led through the game by receiving missions. Basically everything limits to taking over Businesses and sending guards there. If anyone tries to get their Business back, you go there to prevent it, or send your man to do it for you, later in the game. Eliminating a family is possible only after taking over every Business that they own. It's worth to kill their men first: soldiers, capos and underbosses. You can do it by just killing them, but in a specific way. To get to know where to meet and how to kill them, you have to do favours to the pedestrians with a key symbol above their heads. Then you drive to the place and kill according to the given instructions. You don't have to follow them, but if you do, there will be less defence at the family compound. One soldier is as strong as a couple of guards.
In fact you don't have a house of your own, not counting your three hideouts. Each time you enter it, the police will leave you alone and in addition inside you'll find a black mob car (+it's armoured) with guns and ammo inside. This way you can recover your ammo, bombs etc.
The key to success is to have a strong team. You can control it by sending it to different Businesses in order to take them over or defend them. You definitely should have a man with medic speciality. Although every one of your men will slowly recover (you can also heal them with the blue bottles that you will sometimes find) it's wise to have a medic, who will save us or our comrade in case of falling down. While moving with the team you can also show them where they should go (target that place and press "C"). To call them, whistle by pressing "V".
001
002
After some historical facts about the first game and the general history in The Godfather, it's time to begin the adventure. But before you do it, you have to create a character. There are many possibilities, but it doesn't influence the game in any way. Facial hair, eyebrows, lips, clothes etc. Design you character while keeping in mind that you will have to watch it for several hours to come [001] [002].
003
004
The game begins with a meeting on Cuba [003]. After the initial movies, talk to Michael Corleone, who's standing right next to you (by default, press [004] while standing next to a character).
Objective: Talk to Aldo downstairs
005
006
Enter the building and run along the hallway [005]. Turn right and go down two floors using the stairs [006]. Remember that you can turn off running ("Left Alt"), which is useful while moving inside buildings. You can also run faster if you want (hold "Shift").
007
008
When you get to the base floor, [007] find your objective using the map (green X) approach it [008] and talk to Aldo.
009
010
You will have the possibility to choose a statement [009]. Your choices don't influence the game in most cases, not counting the different reactions to what you say. Of course it was too quiet, so trouble appears quite fast [010].
Objective: Escort Michael and Fredo to the exit
011
012
Use the map and go to the back of the hotel [011]. The characters that you must escort will follow you [012].
013
014
The fun begins. A soldier will enter [013]. Run to him and fight [014] (you hit using the right and left mouse buttons).
015
016
After taking care of the first one, another one will appear. Grab him (press the right and left mouse buttons) [015] - then you can hit him by moving the mouse forward and backward and you can finish him off while he's on the floor [016] (right or left mouse button). Exit the hotel.
Objective: Escort Michael and Fredo to the airport
017
018
Now you have to go north, to the airport [017]. Run to the gate [018]. You can take out your gun by pressing "space" (you shoot with the left mouse button, reload with "R" and enter a targeting mode with the right mouse button).
019
020
Exit through the gate and move forward [019]. Look out for the enemy soldiers (shoot them). Remember, that the dangerous characters are marked with red, while innocent civilians with green. Run to the concrete barriers and hide behind them [020] (you crouch by pressing "Ctrl").
021
022
From here kill the enemies hiding behind the cars [021]. Afterwards run left to the target [022] (use the map all the time) while killing the incoming soldiers.
023
024
Look to the right and kill the guard in the building [023]. Afterwards run through the bridge and at the same time get rid of the enemies in the distance [024].
025
026
Run to the other side and shoot the enemies hiding behind the boxes [025]. Turn left and go to the green X marked on your map. After the explosion [026] wait for everything to calm down and kill the remaining soldiers.
027
028
Finally run to the target [027]. Unfortunately not everything goes as the family has planned [028], your adventure at Cuba ends.
This kind of a tutorial should familiarize you with the basic game elements. I won't mention some of the obvious things, assuming that you already know them.
You come back to New York, but because of Aldo Trapani's death, the city is now what it used to be. While still on the plane, Michael entrusts you with the role of the new Don and a mission to take over the city. Although as a Don, you will have to start with small beatings and harassments.
Objective: Talk to Frank Pentangeli
029
030
After the cut scenes, talk to Frank, who's in the same room as you [029].
Objective: Recruit a soldier for your family
It's time to choose a comrade who will help you in achieving your goal. In the nearby room you can choose an arsonist or a medic [030]. During the talk with a soldier you can ask him about his experience and speciality (it works the same throughout the whole game). Choose wisely, because you will have to take over the whole city with your team. After asking about the speciality, a window with info on the character, the speciality itself and gun level will appear. I would suggest you take the arsonist; the medic isn't as useful so early in the game.
Objective: Break Carmine's crime ring. Take over the Sweet Life Bakery
031
032
Before getting out of the Corleone Compound, talk to Michael and the others once more. Get into the car, your soldier will do the same [031]. Remember that in order to call a family member you whistle, by pressing "V". Drive to the target marked on the map - try not to run anyone over to not have any witnesses calling the police. After you arrive [032] get out of the car and go into the Sweet Life Bakery.
033
034
At the back of the bakery you will find a guard [033]. Talk to him. Because he doesn't understand your arguments, beat him up a bit (look at his health bar, you just need to cross the first red line). After some hits talk to him again and notice that he changed his mind. Enter the place and go downstairs to meet the owner of this Business (green X on the map). But before that, you have to beat his men [034]. During such a situation, an icon representing the Business type along with the strength of the attacking and defending team will appear on the right side of the screen. In this case you will have to deal with four guards, who won't pose too much of a threat.
035
036
After you take care of them [035] go to the owner and talk to him [036].
037
038
Because he doesn't want to come to an agreement, you have to find his weak point - as Michael said before, everyone has got one. This time you just have to catch and just hit him a couple of times [037]. This time you just have to catch and just hit him a couple of times. Remember that during extortions you must cross line for someone to start to cooperate [038] (red line). Once you cross it you can continue to earn more money. Just remember that later a second red line may appear and if you cross the person will start to resist you and you won't be able to cooperate with him, so don't let that happen. At the same time, keep an eye on the red meter showing health. If you hit someone too hard you will kill him, and there will be no chances of taking over the Business. After a couple of hours he will come back, but during this time the Business will be closed, so there will be no benefits for the new owner.
039
040
After taking over the Business you will be told, that you haven't assigned any guards. Press "Tab" and set two [039], or three guards. If your rivals would want to take over one of your places, a message will appear and you will be able to quickly react and go aid the guards in defending the Business.
Objective: Talk to Frank Pentangeli
Exit the place and talk to Frank who is waiting for you by the door [040].
Objective: Take over at least two of Carmine's Fronts
041
042
It's time to take over more of Carmine's businesses. You only have to hit two places, but it's a good idea to take over all three - those in the city centre that aren't heavily protected [041]. Begin with Richie's Tavern. Enter the place and go up the stairs [042].
043
044
Take care of the enemies together with your companion [043]. You will find two ladders on the wall - the owner probably used them to escape. Go up - you can meet some more thugs along the way [044].
045
046
After dealing with everyone, go to this Business owner [045]. Once again change his mind using your fists (look out not to kill him) - the place is yours [046]. Set two guards here. In Don's View ("Tab"), choose Richie's Tavern and then security management.
047
048
It's time to take over another Business, let it be Appaliance King. Deal with the five guards [047]. While doing this you can notice that the owner's weak point is destroying his belongings. You don't have to soak your fists in blood, just destroy some TVs [048] and the Business is yours (remember to talk to the owner after reaching the red line).
Objective: Find a phone a call the next contact
049
050
You have a phone at your place - approach it and pick it up ("E"). There is a baseball bat nearby, so take it with you if you haven't done it yet [049]. Although a new objective has appeared, you should take over the third Business - - The Empire Room [050].
051
052
You can bump into problems even before entering the place. Generally, it's protected by five guards and it can get really got once you enter. Try to kill everyone from the doorstep [051]. Then approach the owner and force her to cooperate with force [052]. Of course get two guards to protect the Business once you're done with her. In case the police show up, just run away, they aren't too persistent.
Objective: Talk to Michael Corleone at the compound
053
054
Go back to the Corleone compound and talk with Michael [053] - he will order you to recruit a demolition expert. Talk to Frank on your way out.
Objective: Head to Triboro Park and recruit a demolition expert
In order to recruit a new family member, head to Triboro Park [054].
Objective: Recruit Bill Bardy to your family
055
056
Talk to Billy Bard [055] and accept him as a new family member.
Objective: Complete your crime circle: take over La Maison Rouge
Take your soldiers and head to the next Business - La Maison Rouge [056].
057
058
Entering from the front is impossible - the doors locked. Head to the back of the compound [057]. Your new family member will prove himself useful. Use him to blow up the door and enter the compound. Target them and press "C" [058]. The soldier will plant some explosives which will explode after a couple of seconds.
059
060
Guards will start to show up - deal with them of course [059], there are around 10 all together. You can order your soldiers to move a certain point. Press "C" and they will move to the place that you're targeting at that moment. Make them enter every room like that [060].
061
062
Enter the main room and kill everyone on the ground floor [061]. On your way to the 1st floor you will encounter some guards [062] - kill them.
063
064
Once o the top, kill the survivors on the right [063]. In the last room you will finally get to meet the owner of this Business. Just use your fists and she will gladly cooperate [064]. Because you control every place of this kind, you control the whole crime ring. You and your soldiers receive knuckle-duster - a bonus which will increase the damage you inflict. Set three guards in your new acquisition.
065
066
It's possible that when you exit the La Maison Rouge you will receive a message that someone is trying to take over one of your places.
Objective: Defend your business from Carmine's attack
Quickly go to your destination (you can turn on Don's view to quickly localize to place [065]). Kill the enemies and defend your Business [066].
Objective: Find a phone and call the next contact
067
068
Answer the phone at the bakery [067].
Objective: Go to the meeting at the safehouse in New York
Go to the apartment. Talk to Frank, who is standing by the door [068].
Objective: Talk to Michael Corleone
069
070
Walk upstairs and talk to Michael [069]. From now on the apartment is your safehouse. You will always find guns and ammo here. In addition once you enter, the police will stop chasing you. You will also find your mob car nearby.
Objective: Talk to Frank Pentangeli
Talk to Frank and go outside.
Objective: Find someone who needs a favour
You won't have to search for too long. On the other side of the street you will find someone in need - it's the one with a key above his head [070].
071
072
Talk to him [071], you can ask him why he you to beat somebody, or just take the job.
Objective: Beat the target, to do a favour
Locate the target by using the map [072]. Just hit him a couple of times and you will complete the mission. Just look out not to kill him!
073
074
Press "Tab" and you will see a screen presenting the Carmine family [073]. You will have the info on the whereabouts of one of the soldiers.
Objective: Find and kill the Carmine family member
Remember that in order to permanently eliminate a soldier you must kill him in a specific way, following the kill conditions. Go to the car park where the soldier is - drive through the gate [074].
075
076
Get out of the car, grab him (both mouse buttons) and hold down "space" in order to strangle him [075]. After a while it will be all over and the soldier will be permanently eliminated (which you can see on the Carmine family screen). Find a phone and answer it [076].
Objective: Meet with Carmine in Richie's Tavern
077
078
Carmine got your message and wants to meet at Richie's Tavern. Go there, but don't forget to take a gun and some ammo with you (you can get those in your safehouse). Unfortunately you fell into a trap [077] - you'd be dead if not for a random policeman. Run to the roof using the stairs and get on the stairs behind [078].
Objective: Force your way through the cops
079
080
Go upstairs using them - kill the policeman that you will bump into [079]. Run through the roof to the next stairs [080] - jump over the small barriers by pressing "E".
081
082
Another cop will show up [081]. Run upstairs, there will be three more cops there. Remember that if one of your men falls you can reanimate him [082] (approach him and press "E") - if you have a medic on your team, he will do it for you.
083
084
Run to the designed points according to the green arrows and more cops will show up [083]. You're near the end; just kill three cops on the last roof [084].
085
086
Approach the stairs and the last policeman will shot up [085]. Go downstairs.
Objective: Jump through the window
Well, well - you're right next to your safehouse. Jump through the window ("E") into the apartment [086] and you won' have to worry about the cops anymore.
Objective: Find a phone and call the next contact
Use the phone at your apartment.
Objective: Meet with Michael Corleone at the compound
Get out of the apartment and go to the Corleone compound together with your soldiers - talk to Michael once you're there.
Objective: Take over every Business belonging to Carmine Rosato
087
088
Recruit another soldier before you start this mission. In the kitchen next door [087] you will find three volunteers: a safecracker, medic and an engineer [!!!]. Please note, that the safecracker is really useful and if you don't consider yourself a newbie, recruit him. The medic is very important in later in the game, but if you have experience with this kind of games, take the safecracker. Remember that you can also recruit new members in places you own - there will always be someone waiting there [088].
089
090
If you have chosen the safecracker you should revisit every place you own and get him to open the safe [089] - there is one in EVERY SINGLE Business. Just target the safe and press "C" just like with the arsonist. At the same time look out for incoming messages - Carmine will constantly attack your Businesses. Try to react as fast as you can and don't let him take over any of the places you own. If he manages, regain it quickly. It's time to start the next mission: hit the SaniCo Incineration [090].
091
092
Use the door from the street side and enter the building. It will get nasty in the third room - kill the guards below [091 and then those higher up. Afterwards go to the 1st floor using the stairs and kill the rest. There are two rooms here, one with a ladder leading up - go there and check if somebody's there [092]. Go down again and to the last room.
093
094
Get rid of the remaining guards - afterwards, crack the safe [093] (if you have a safecracker) and take over the Business with fists or a gun. Set some guards - two or even three. If Carmine's men aren't attacking one of your places, attack his last Business. SaniCo Dump and Disposal is near the last one.
095
096
Drive from the front and run over some of the guards [095]. You will bump into some more enemies in front of the building and behind the corner [096].
097
098
You will also find a door that you can blow up there. But that doesn't change anything, so enter from the front [097]. Kill the guards with the help of your soldiers. Look out; it's possible that Carmine Rosato will send reinforcements to defend his Business (a message will appear telling you this). In that case, step out of the building and kill them as soon as they arrive [098].
099
100
Go back into the building and into the small room at the end [099]. The last guard should be there - kill him and don't hurt the owner. He's afraid of guns, so just target him and he'll be all yours [100]. Because of that you should look out during the first fights not to target him, because you can cross the red line, and the attack will end with a failure.
101
102
Set three guards. Crack the safe in the room before (I'm still assuming you took the safecracker instead of a doctor).
Objective: Find a phone and call the next contact
There's a phone in the same room as the safe - use it [102].
Objective: Meet with Michael Corleone in your hideout
Drive to your apartment. Speak with Michael. He will give you three rapid recoveries (accessible from Don's View - Back Pack) - I don't think it's necessary to explain what those do and that you can use them at any time. By now you can go to Carmine Rosato's compound. But you don't have to do it just yet - you can make the thing easier by eliminating the rest of Rosato's soldiers, robbing the bank or doing favours for corrupted officials (you can read about the bank and the officials in the last chapter of this guide).
Eliminating Rosato's soldiers
103
104
In order to eliminate them you must do favours for some people to learn about their whereabouts and for to permanently eliminate them (kill condition). You will find such persons all around the town; they show up on the streets. You pretty much have to just exit your apartment and you'll bump into some [103]. The missions are easy, you have to steal something, kill someone or demolish some place. Remember that in case of problems with the police you just have to go back to your apartment.
Take care of Clyde Lando first [104]. To eliminate him, you must run him over with a car, which is quite easy.
105
106
Enter the Pod Midtown Expressway and drive through the gate [105]. Don't get out, order your boys to shoot the enemies from the car (press "space"). If the target doesn't run to you, run over the boxes and the barrels and then the soldier (remember that this is the only way you will eliminate him for good). If he does come out to confront you, the task will be even easier [106]. Carmine's second soldier won't bother you anymore.
107
108
Now it's time for the third soldier - Jimmy Guidalatto [107]. Drive to where he stays, you'll find him behind the Spicher Waterfront [108].
109
110
Kill the guard, but don't shoot the target [109]. Run to Jimmy and grab him. While holding him, approach the barrier until you see an adequate message and swiftly move the mouse forward to throw him into the river [110].
111
112
There's only one man left - capo Norman Rossi [111]. Go to the Baja Inc. Construction Site [112].
113
114
Drive into the construction site through the gate [113]. Eliminate the enemies on the upper floor and move up. Once there, kill some more guys [114].
115
116
Slowly move upwards [115] while eliminating the oncoming enemies. Look out for those upstairs. Also look after your man and reanimate them if they get killed [116].
117
118
Remember not to shoot your target. Kill every single guard and get onto the roof. While having your pistol equipped, run towards Norman Rossi [117]. When you approach him, a message on the top of the screen will appear, telling you that you can execute him - press the corresponding button and your character will kill the capo [118].
Objective: Drive to Carmine Rosato's compound
119
120
Head towards Rosato's compound [119]. Of course before you do that, stock up on weapons and ammo. The road to his compound leads through the only opened gate in that area [120].
Objective: Destroy Carmine Rosato's compound
121
122
Get out of the car and start eliminating the guards. Remember that if you took out Carmine's soldiers, you will have an easier task. Kill the guards on the left [121] and right side of the house - don't forget about the balconies [122].
123
124
Eliminate the guards coming out through the main entrance [123]. Look out; some of them can come out of the window on the left [124].
125
126
Enter Carmine's compound. On the ground floor you will find some weapons. Go up using the stairs. Eliminate the remaining guards and some soldiers and the capo if you haven't dealt with them yet. On the cabinet just before the room in which your target is, you will find a new weapon - the Magnum. In the last room you will meet Carmine Rosato - talk to him [125]. If you have a safecracker, tell him to deal with the safe located in this room. As for the demolitions expert (you must have one), order him to plant the explosives [126].
Objective: Get out of the compound
127
128
Get out of the compound as fast as you can, using the same route [127] and head towards the car. Carmine Rosato will die, his compound will be destroyed [128] and you will take it over.
Objective: Find a phone and call the next contact
Get to the nearest phone for example in the Corleone compound. Hyman Roth, who you met back at Cuba, has an offer for you at Florida.
Upgrading the soldiers
129
130
Before you go to the airport it's worth checking you soldiers and upgrade them (if you haven't done this before). You should have a lot of money from the missions and cracking safes. You will have even more if you were taking missions from the street.
Take care of yourself first [129]. Increase the two first stats and those connected with guns in the first place. When it comes to your soldiers, [130] also increase their health and regeneration and definitely upgrade their specialities. You can also invest in accuracy; depending on which type of gun a soldier uses (remember that you can always change the type).
Objective: Drive to the airport and book a ticket to Florida
131
132
Head to the airport [131], get inside through the door and find the travel agency agent [132]. Choose the trip to Florida!
Welcome to Florida which, as you can see after looking on the map, is definitely bigger than New York.
Objective: Meet with Hyman Roth at his place
133
134
You can speak with Freddy Corleone. Afterwards find a four door car on the parking lot nearby [133]. Localize your destination on the map. Turn left after leaving the airport in Palmetto direction and follow the map to the target. Once you get to the house [134] go inside and speak to Roth.
Objective: Save Roth from the Granados family
135
136
Drive according to the map to the place where the associate is being held [135]. You have to take the stairs, but before you do that, take the garrotte from the chair right next to them. Crouch ("Ctrl"), equip your new weapon [136] and go up the stairs.
137
138
Don't get up, sneak up to the guard and strangle him with the garrotte (press and hold down both mouse buttons - just like grabbing enemies). Hold down "space" in order to strangle him [137]. Go forward and you will see another guard [138] - kill him the same way as the one before.
139
140
Two guards will jump out of the corner - you have probably already noticed, that they're wearing bulletproof vests. In this situation, try to shoot them in the legs and head. Afterwards pick up the silencer [139] and slowly go up using the stairs. Once there, quickly take down the guard with a headshot [140]. Afterwards talk to the saved Roth's man.
Objective: Phone to Hyman Roth
141
142
Go down, you'll find a phone on the other side of the street [141].
Objective: Meet with Hyman Roth in his hideout in Florida
Drive to the meeting place, enter the house [142] and talk to Roth. From now on this house will be your hideout. You also have a room in the Family Tree for a capo. Open the Tree and promote one of your men to capo - remember that he can have two specialities, so chose him the second one. Of course choose one that you don't yet have, for example a medic or a safecracker. Generally it's good if, for example, you promote a safecracker (who you always have beside) to an engineer. If you have enough money, upgrade your capo, the other soldiers and yourself. Whatever your choice will be, you will have one free soldier slot, which you should fill up as fast as you can.
Objective: Talk to Fredo
Fredo is standing in front of the house, talk to him. He will tell you about the influence you can gain in the city thanks to corrupted officials.
Objective: Weaken Granados and Tony Rosato: Take over one of their Crime Rings
143
144
Not far from your new hideout in Florida you will find a weakly protected Foreplay Pictures [143]. Drive there [144] and firstly get rid of the guards outside.
145
146
Step inside, search the rooms, crack the safe and eliminate every enemy in sight [145]. Afterwards go to the back of the house where apparently a party is taking place, kill the guards, find the owner [146] and as always, induce him to cooperate. Set 4 or even 5 guards to protect this place.
It's almost inevitable that while you're taking over the 1st Business, the Granados will attack one of your places in New York. You can of course send your soldiers there immediately, but it's better to finish your attack and then go to help. Also don't be fooled by some messages - they can refer to a fight between the two other families and have nothing to do with you.
147
148
Go to New York (head to the airport and talk to the travel agency agent) and get your Business back. Send some guards there as well. Afterwards visit your places [147] in order to recruit a new soldier (in place of the one promoted to capo [148]). Of course try to find one with a speciality that you don't yet have. If you still don't have an engineer, search for one until you find him.
After you find a soldier, remember that you can have only 3 people with your team at once. It means that you must have your capo (who has two specialities) and two soldiers with two most needed specialities (medic, safecracker, an engineer). From now on you can send the others to a location, not only your hideout but also a certain Business in order for them to defend it. In case of an attack you can send all of your free men to defend it, or even add one or two from your team. Sometimes its worth to go yourself, if you're not doing an important mission at the moment or the attack is strong (note the number of people above the building).
149
150
Your objective is to take over one of the Crime Rings. Firstly you should weaken the Granados by taking away their bulletproof vests - you will do that by taking over one of the Diamond Smuggling buildings. I remind you, that the bonus is active only if a family possesses every building of one kind. Go to the one protected the least, which is the one to the south of Bertolli Thrift Company [149]. Enter through the door on the side [150].
151
152
Kill the guard by the stairs [151]. It will be really hot on the next floor [152] - kill the remaining enemies.
153
154
Go up the next pair of stairs, deal with the enemies and take over the Business [153]. There are two safes here that you can crack. Don't forget about hiring some guards.
Unfortunately the other diamond Businesses are protected far better. You can try to take them over, but at the same time you can concentrate on the Drugs and take over the whole Crime Circle. You already have two building of this kind in New York - you will find two more in Florida. They're controlled by Tony Rosato. Take care of the SaniCo Hauling Depot first [154].
155
156
You have to clear the area, eliminating about 8 guards [155]. Enter the building, take care of the enemies [156], crack the safe and persuade the owner to cooperate by grabbing him. In the end hire 4-5 guards.
While you try to take over, one of your Businesses will probably get attacked - send two soldiers there (one "free", who's staying at one of your places and one from your team).
157
158
The forces you sent should handle the attack. If not, you should definitely go there and take over that place. It's time to take control of the 4th and last of the Drugs buildings - SaniCo Truck Depot [157]. If you have an engineer with you, command him to take a look at the box beside the building, which will prevent the guards from calling for backup. If you won't do that, it's quite possible that Rosato will send his soldiers and capo here [158].
159
160
You don't know the kill conditions to permanently eliminate them, but if you're lucky, you'll eliminate Jimmy Vecchio [159] by using a Tommy Gun - the rest of them won't bother you for some time. Afterwards eliminate all the guards [160] and then do the usual - crack the safe, take over the place, set guards. This way you have the whole drug crime ring in your possession.
161
162
Set 6 guards in every place of this ring - don't forget about those in New York [161]. There will surely be an attack soon, and don't be surprised of one of your four drug places will be the target. Send one free soldier and one from your team to defend it [162].
Objective: Find a phone and call the next contact
You will find a phone downstairs.
Objective: Meet with Hyman Roth at his house in Florida
Go to Roth's place and talk to him and the others. It's time to hit the other families. You will be probably attacked again - send your people if it will be in New York and go yourself if the attack will take place in Florida.
163
164
Objective: Weaken the Ganados and Tony Rosato: kill at least 2 of their men
Its worth to recruit a new soldier before you get on with this job. Of course try to get someone with a speciality that you don't yet have. Go to your places in Florida, if you don't find anyone suitable, go to the airport in order to fly to New York. However when you arrive to the airport, you will find that there's no one at the terminal and the travel agency worker is nowhere to be found.
Objective: Talk with Fredo Corleone
Near the airport you will meet Fredo [163] - talk to him.
Objective: Speak with Hyman Roth
He will send you to Roth, who is at the airport [164] - he will explain the situation to you.
Objective: Talk with Henry Mitchell
There's a CIA agent by the plane, talk to him.
Objective: Interrogate the strike leader at the airport
165
166
Striking people are blocking the entry to the airport, talk to their leader. Use your fists and he'll tell you all that you need [165].
Objective: Kill Alejandro Almeida
Drive to his whereabouts [166]. There will be a long fight with his guards.
167
168
While going up the stairs, eliminate the guards before you and on the sides [167]. Unfortunately one of your places will be attacked in the meantime. Send two soldiers there, as always. Continue forward [168].
169
170
When you get to the top, clear the terrain, replenish your supplies but don't shoot Almeide, who's at the balcony on the other side [169]. You must get down and go the other way, on the left [170].
171
172
Some more guards to eliminate [171]. After killing everyone run up, where your target is, but don't shoot him. Grab Almeide [172], approach the barriers and throw him down (just as you did with Jimmy Guidalatto in New York).
Objective: Meet with Michael Corleone in New York
173
174
Head to the airport, you can also talk to Agent Henry Mitchell and Fredo Corleone [173]. Fly to New York.
Objective: Drive to your Compound in New York
You must go to the Corleone Compound, but before you do that it would be wise to fill up the empty soldier slot [174] (if you haven't done it yet). Visit your places and find someone. If you can't find anyone with a speciality you don't yet have, just take anyone. Florida isn't asleep during your trip - if someone attacks you, send your soldiers or even capo, depending on the strength of the enemy.
175
176
Michael Corleone will explain many things to you [175] and hand over his consigliere, Tom Hagen.
Objective: Talk to Tom Hagen
Talk with your consigliere.
Objective: Meet with Rosa at La Maison Rouge in New York
Go to the nearby La Maison Rouge. Rosa Scarletti is at the top of the stairs [176] - she will agree to help you, but firstly you must do her a favour.
Objective: Destroy the evidence in New York Federal Building
177
178
Drive to New York Federal Building [177]. You will meet some policemen at the entrance that are willing to help you [178]. Bribe one and they won't bug you later on.
179
180
In the room on the right you can crack a safe. In the room on the left you will find your objective hidden in a safe [179].
Objective: Return to Rosa at La Maison Rouge
Come back to Rosy and talk with her.
Objective: Talk to Tom Hagen
Hagen is at a cafe [180]. He will tell you that he arranged your meeting with a senator who you must manipulate.
Objective: Participate in a sitting with senator Geary
181
182
Drive to the meeting point and talk to the senator [181]. You must be smart during this talk. Remember that you're interested in business. You should definitely choose the girls as a method of returning the favour. The senator will go to the La Maison Rouge. In addition, he will 'accidentally' find himself in a troublesome situation [182] and your family will be able to help him.
Objective: Talk to senator Geary
Chat with the senator.
Objective: Talk to Tom Hagen
You will meet Hagen by the door.
Objective: Drive to the airport and fly to Florida
183
184
You've finished everything in New York. You can only (if you want to) rob the bank one more time. This time order your engineer to cut the cables in the box at the side of the building [183] - do the rest the same way as before. Drive to your safehouse [184] in order to hide the loot. Head to Florida.
Objective: Talk to Michael at the airport terminal
185
186
You will find Michael at the airport [185] - he will tell you about a new family that has appeared in the area.
Objective: Meet with Don Mangano and form an alliance
Look at the map to localize the meeting point. Drive there [186] and talk to Don Samuel Mangano.
Objective: Weaken the Granados and Tony Rosato: Take over 12 of the Businesses
I remind you that you haven't completed the task of eliminating the enemy soldiers - the strike at the airport prevented you from doing that. You can find some people that need help and gather the required information. After that eliminate the enemy families members (you can read about this in the last chapter of the guide).
However you can start with taking over the Businesses. Start with the diamonds - by owning this crime ring, all of your soldiers and guards (including you) will have a bulletproof vest. Strike the Emilio Packing Company.
187
188
Firstly climb the ladder at the side of the building and order your engineer to cut the power off [187]. Beside you will find windows [188], through which you can enter the building.
189
190
Crack the safe and eliminate the guards afterwards. You will find the owner at the top [189]. Take over the Business with a couple of punches. Beside, behind a net which your engineer can cut, you will find a better sniper rifle [190]. Set up a strong defence, even 7-8 guards in every place of the diamond crime ring.
191
192
There should be only one place left - Lansky's Deli [191]. Attack the place and prevent the guards from calling for backup [192] or send your engineer to the box located on the roof.
193
194
Eliminate the guards, crack all the safes [193] and use your fists to take over the Business, set 7-8 guards.
Objective: Find a phone and call the next contact
A new objective will show up before you know it - never the less, finish taking over the diamond crime ring in order to obtain the bulletproof vests. Afterwards find a phone.
Objective: Meet with Fredo at your safehouse in Florida
Drive to your house in Florida. You will find out that someone wants to eliminate you [194].
Objective: Talk with Fredo
You don't know for sure who it was, but after talking to Fredo think they were Mangano men. You also receive one more capo slot.
Upgrade one of your soldier to capo, find s new soldier
195
196
Choose a soldier with a speciality that the first capo doesn't have. If it's possible, it would be great if it would be someone with good gun knowledge. Upgrade him to a capo [195] and choose a speciality that no one else has (for example - bruiser)! Of course try to quickly fill up the empty space by recruiting a new man [196].
Objective: Meet with Charlie Green to get into the warehouse
197
198
Once more you have an option to choose - you can either follow the objectives or start to eliminate the enemy soldiers and capo and take over Businesses. However there will be always time for this. However it's worth to take mission from pedestrians while cruising the streets. You will gain important info regarding the enemy soldiers that will come in hand later on. The assassinations and beating are by far the easiest but you can also take on robberies and sabotages, but they're more complicated.
Go and meet with Green [197]. He will agree to help you, but not for free.
Objective: Assassinate Hector Santos
You have to kill Santos, who should be quite near Green. Do it quietly - use a pistol with a silencer, strangle or beat him to death [198].
Objective: Use your connections to enter Mangano warehouse
199
200
Drive to the designed place and talk to the man by the bridge [199]. Green already phoned to him, so you don't need to do anything - he will lower the bridge.
Objective: Set fire in Mangano warehouse, to lure their firemen out
Go to the place showed on the map [200] - eliminate all the enemies in the area.
201
202
You will come upon a closed door on the right [201]. Let the safecracker open it, you will find a better shotgun inside [202].
203
204
Let one of your family members set fire onto the target [203] (you must have a soldier or a capo with this speciality). Some guards will come out of one of the building - eliminate them [204].
205
206
Afterwards get into the building from the front with the help of the demolitions expert or the engineer (from the side) [205]. Don't forget about the safe in one of the rooms. Go to the roof. From there shoot the enemies [206] - you can use a sniper rifle to do that.
207
208
Walk the foot-bridge onto the roof - of course look out for the explosions [207]. Jump down through the hole in the roof and eliminate the guards [208].
209
210
Get out of the building and get on the crane, on which you will find the owner of this Business. Hit him a couple of times to take over this place [209] and set guards, as usual. Get out of the location.
Objective: Find a phone and call the next contact
Get to the nearest phone [210] and talk with Mangano.
Objective: Participate in a sitting with Don Mangano
211
212
Go to the place where the meeting will take place - of course react if one of your Businesses will get attacked and send soldier or capos there - also those from your team. Drive to the side of the building [211] and enter through the large door on the back (they will open once you approach them). Manganos are waiting inside [212] and they don't have good news for you.
213
214
As it turns out, the Manganos [213] will take out some of your men and take over a couple of your Businesses. Unfortunately there isn't much you can do about at this moment. Your soldiers can die during the defence. You can heal them using the Rapid Recovery from the Back Pocket menu (Michael gave you three some time ago).
Objective: Talk with Fredo
Talk with Fredo at your place.
Objective: Meet with Hyman Roth
Drive to the meeting place and talk with Roth on the jetty [214].
215
216
Together with agent Mitchell [215] they will assure you, that everything will turn out well thanks to completing a mission on Cuba.
Objective: Talk with agent Mitchell
Talk with the CIA agent standing beside you.
Objective: Drive to the airport and book tickets to Cuba
Go to the airport and go to Cuba with the help of the travel agency agent [216].
Objective: Find a phone and call the next contact
You come back to the place where it all begun.
217
218
Run forward and across the bridge through which you were escaping to the airport [217] - on the other side you will find a payphone.
Objective: Meet with Mitchell in his safehouse on Cuba
Use your map and get to the meeting point [218]. You can either run there or steal a car (just look out for the police).
219
220
You will find him behind a pillar [219] - talk to him. From now on you will have a safehouse with a guns and a car nearby.
Objective: Assassinate the leader of the dissidents
You have to deal with some people [220].
221
222
Firstly go south-east, next to the police department. Enter the area where the targets are through a back alley. Unfortunately you will probably have to eliminate some members of the mob [221]. First of all, remember to eliminate every single target [222]. You will probably have some trouble with the police, so just run to your safehouse.
223
224
After dealing with the police, head north-east to some more dissidents. Climb the ladder [223] and then the stairs to the very top. There eliminate the targets [224] and escape the area.
225
226
Now drive to the north-west part of the area [225]. You can meet a policeman, who you can easily bribe [226]. This way the police won't bug you for some time.
227
228
Locate the entrance, through which you will get to the dissidents (it's marked [227]). Enter by using the stairs alone - leave your men by the door. This way you can quietly eliminate the first dissident by using a silenced pistol [228].
229
230
Further you will meet another one - on the other side of a barrier [229]. After getting rid of everyone, evacuate and move to the other dissidents [230].
231
232
It's time to get to the east of the airport [231]. You can use a sniper rifle firstly [232].
233
234
Kill every target in the area [233] and head to the airport [234].
235
236
Get to the top of the tower [235] and eliminate the last dissidents [236].
Objective: Find a phone and call the next contact
A new objective will appear after a while. Search for a phone.
Objective: Drive to the president palace
237
238
Your actions haven't been left unnoticed. Head to the president's palace [237].
Objective: Find Fidel Castro
Your weapons have been confiscated and you have prohibited from leaving the room, however the door has been left unlocked and you have a mission to complete. Crouch ("Ctrl"), leave the room and head to the balcony in front of you [238].
Objective: Kill Fidel Castro using a sniper rifle
239
240
There's a sniper rifle on the balcony on the other side [239]. You have to get there unnoticed. To the left of your room there are stairs - use them to get down. There will be a guard there [240] - kill him quietly (for example, strangle him).
However if the guard does notice you, you will have around 15 seconds to eliminate him before he turns on the alarm - a counter will appear on the screen. Don't try to struggle him then, just beat him till he dies.
241
242
Afterwards go left from the stairs. Look out not to get noticed by the guards standing at the centre of the room. You will see another soldier on the left [241] - eliminate him. Go forward, and there will be another soldier in the corner on the room - kill him as well [242].
243
244
Continue going down the hall till the very end and you will find a door [243] - don't let the enemies notice you. Eliminate another guard behind the door [244].
245
246
The last enemy had a gun with him. There are two soldiers on the right, on the bottom of the stairs [245] - eliminate them using your newly gained gun, aim for the head. There's another guard on the top of the stairs [246], but just ignore him. Head right where you can be noticed by another enemy - eliminate him quickly.
247
248
Go up the stairs right - you're close to your target. Kill the last guard behind the door [247]. On the left, near the barrier, there is a sniper rifle [248].
249
250
Shoot Saddam Hussein from the sniper rifle [249]. A new, powerful family will appear in the movie [250].
Objective: Escape from the palace
251
252
Immediately run to the room before you [251] and kill one enemy soldier while you're on it - however hurry. Gather the weapons from the room [252].
253
254
Kill the enemy soldiers [253]. Head to the stairs on the right and go down - don't be surprised if you will be attacked the whole time [254].
255
256
Head towards the door while eliminating every enemy in sight [255] - finally, get out of the palace.
Objective: Escape from the palace and get to the airport
Get into the car and escape the palace [256].
Objective: Get to the airport
257
258
Drive to the airport [257] - however you can go to your safehouse as well, in order to lose the cops, but that won't make too much of a difference. After arriving, watch the cut scene [258] during which you escape from Cuba as well as see who was also there during your stay.
You will find yourself in New York, but the action will from now on take place in every city in the game.
Objective: Find a phone and call the next contact
259
260
You're on the airport, you shouldn't have any problems with finding a phone [259].
Objective: Meet with Michael and Fredo at the compound
Head to the Corleone compound. During the long talk, many things will be explained [260].
Objective: Talk with Michael Corleone
Talk with Michael a little bit more.
Objective: Talk with Tom
Tom is standing by the door - talk with him again.
Promote people in your family
Before you take on the mission, promote one of your capos to an underboss - I think I don't have to remind you that it would be great if he would have the most useful skills and gun skills. Afterwards promote one of your soldiers to a capo - follow the same rules. Generally speaking, try to do this in such a way, that your two capos and the underboss will have all the skills together and the highest gun skills. Of course fill up the empty positions. You have assembled a full family. Don't forget about upgrading and changing the guns to better ones.
Objective: Meet with Vincenzo Pentangeli in your safehouse in New York
261
262
Go to your apartment in New York [261]. It seems that Vincenzo is gone and his bodyguard was shot [262].
Objective: Phone to Tom Hagen
Immediately use the phone and talk with Tom.
Objective: Investigate Vincenzo's disappearance
263
264
You must now find out what happened. You will find a dozen people around the building to who you can talk to [263] (use the map). Every one of them will give you some information, unfortunately now everything will be true. When you will gather all the info you need you will have to decide where to go - you will find all the places on the map [264].
Objective: Find Vincenzo's kidnappers, but where?
Go to La Maison Rouge.
Objective: Interrogate Vincenzo's kidnappers
265
266
You will find the kidnappers having fun on the upper floor [265]. You will get them to tell you where Vincenzo is being held with your fists (just like when you try to force a Business owner to cooperate with you).
Objective: Save Vincenzo Pentangeli
Go to the building site showed on the map [266].
267
268
When you arrive, you will have to deal with some guards on top. Afterwards step through the door and head downstairs [267]. There you will have to eliminate some more easy guards [268].
269
270
The last group of guards is behind the marked door [269]. Inside you will find Vincenzo Pentangeli [270], all safe and sound.
271
272
Afterwards you will see a cut scene during which Vincenzo's presence will influence his brother to change his testimony during an interrogation [271].
Objective: Talk with Tom
Speak again about the whole thing with your consigliere.
Objective: Meet with Michael in the defence room
Go to the defence room, right next the interrogation hall. Michael will explain many things to you during the conversation [272].
Objective: Talk with Michael
Speak with him once more. He will inform you that he's leaving to Las Vegas and you have to tidy things up around here. It means eliminating every last enemy.
Objective: Kill Henry Mitchell on Cuba and eliminate every rival family
273
274
Head to the airport and fly to Cuba. Find a four door car [273] and drive to the target, according to the map. Go up the stairs and try to eliminate the first enemies using a pistol with a silencer [274]. When in the building, go up all the time, using the stairs and corridors.
275
276
There will be a big fight on the rood [275]. Look out for Mitchell, who uses a shotgun. Eliminate him [276] and run to the airport - go back to Florida.
Eliminating the Granados
I remind you, that during the game its worth to take assignments from pedestrians, thanks to which you will get to know the kill conditions needed to eliminate the enemy families' members. The assassinations and beating are the easiest and basically you should accept only those two (you will find out what you have to do during the conversation with a person). Complete these assignments while running around town - you will know the kill conditions.
While eliminating the Granados soldiers, take over their Businesses at the same time. Before attacking a given family's compound, you must first take over every single place it owns.
277
278
Theodore Ruiz [277] is now staying in Florida [278]. You will have to kill him using for example a baseball bat.
279
280
No matter which side you choose, get pass the obstacles using your engineer [279] and the others and get to the target while eliminating his guards. Use a baseball bat or a similar weapon to kill the capo [280].
281
282
It's time for Thomas Ramos [281]. While still outside, eliminate his companions [282]. Now you can search the building.
283
284
Afterwards throw a bomb [283]. You have 5 seconds to escape the building - there will be an explosion, which will kill the Granados soldier [284].
285
286
Take care of Harry Reyes now, you can find him near the hospital [285]. You have to shoot him between the eyes. Drive to the area where the target is [286], but don't approach him.
287
288
Eliminate his bodyguards using a sniper rifle [287], however don't shoot Reyes himself. When there's no one around to interrupt you, order your team to stay by the car and go to the soldier yourself. Approach him while hiding behind various things and at the right moment, when he will face you, shoot him in the head [288].
289
290
Anthony Espinoza is your next target [289]. You will find him in New York. Go there [290].
291
292
You can enter with your men and shoot everyone in sight, however it's easier to eliminate the capo with a sniper rifle [291]. Find your target and shoot him from a distance [292].
293
294
Go back to Florida. Paul Morales [293] can be found under a flyover - drive there from the left side. [294].
295

299
300
At the rear of the ground floor you can find some Molotov Cocktails (they're behind a fence; your engineer will cut through it easily). Drive your car to the highest floor accessible by a vehicle [299] and get out of the car. You can replenish your weapons by the boxes. Get higher while eliminating every single enemy [300].
301
302
Wait for Salazar to come down to you, or go to the top floor yourself. Whichever option you choose, throw a Molotov cocktail at your target [301]. Once he's on the ground, throw another one [302].
303
304

305
306
Let the engineer cut the fence [305] and get rid of the guards together with your soldiers [306].
307
308
Look for your objective inside the building if he hasn't showed up yet. Grab him as fast as you can and start to strangle him [307]. This way, you have eliminated almost the whole Granados family [308].
Bruce Rivera is still alive (you may not be able to kill him, because no one has information about him in Florida and he's staying on Cuba), as well as the boss himself.
309
310
I remind you that in order to hit a compound, you must take over every Business owned by a family. Once you do that, go to the Granados compound, located near your safehouse in Florida [309]. There's so philosophy here. Strike the guards at the first gate. Afterwards eliminate the others, to secure the back [310].
311
312
Go deeper into the compound. Eliminate the Granados men together with your best men [311]. The sniper rifle can prove useful [312].
313

315
316
Move forward, crack the safe and take the MP38 [315]. Use the map and get to the place where you must plant the explosives [316].
317
318
Let one of your men plant the explosives [317] and get out of there as quickly as possible [318]. The Granados no longer pose a threat. You have earned much money - use it to upgrade your men.
Eliminating Tony Rosato's family
It's time to get rid of the second family. I remind you that you should take missions from the pedestrians while you eliminate the soldiers and complete them between eliminating and taking over Businesses. You will gain more info on how to kill the soldiers this way.
You can eliminate one of the soldiers by accident with a Tommy Gun, as he can be on the team that will be sent as backup to one of the Businesses you try to take over.
319

325
326

327
328
Leave your men at the bottom of the stairs, go up and eliminate the first guard. Eliminate some more guards once you get to the middle [327]. Finally get to the top, hide behind the wall and shoot the survivors. When only the soldier is left alive, hurt him with a Tommy Gun or any other weapon until he has minimum health [328].
329
330
Rush to one of the tables and grab ("E") a bottle [329]. While moving all the time, let the soldier empty his clip. When he stops to reload the weapon, quickly throw the bottle at him [330]. If your health will drop dangerously low while you try to kill him, run behind the wall near the stairs, wait for a moment and try again until you succeed.
331
332
For Philip Giotti [331] to disappear forever, you have to throw him from a certain height. Drive to the place [332] and eliminate all the enemies, including the ones on the top.

Don't forget about the sniper rifle on the "balcony" on the side [333]. Once you kill everyone, go up using the ladder [334].
335
336
Localize the target there [335]. Quickly run to him, grab and throw him through the barrier [336]. Capo Tony Rosato has been permanently eliminated.

355
356
Run to him, hit a couple of times [355] until a message that you can execute him appears (press "F"). Don't take out any guns until you kill him - you can eliminate his two bodyguards later on (if your men haven't done it yet).
Tony Rosato has five soldiers. You could have eliminated the fifth one earlier - he could have appeared as backup at one of the Businesses you were taking over.
You have eliminated all of Tony Rosato men [356]. It's time to hit on his compound. I remind you that in order to do that, you must take over every Business he owns - you don't have to eliminate his men (but they will defend the compound if you don't).
357
358
Use the map and go to Tony Rosato's compound - it's in New York. Drive in through the front [357] (you can also enter through the fence on the tight side). Use your sniper rifle to eliminate the guards on the balconies [358].

421
422
There you will find many doors leading to balconies [421]. Your target is on one of them [422]. You have very little time to run, so firstly test your way out and afterwards blow up the residence. Another family has been eliminated.

The robbery looks identical in every location. There are a few banks throughout the game and each of them can be robbed the same way.
519
520
In order to rob a bank you should have at least a demolitions expert on your crew, but a safecracker would be the best. Additionally, if you have an engineer, look for the god old box on the side of the building (one of the banks in Florida has it on the roof) and order him to have a look at it. This way the bank's security won't be able to call the police. Having a demolitions expert, search for a cracked wall on the side of the building, where your soldier can place some explosives - you will enter the safe deposit from the back. Having a safe cracker, enter through the front door [519]. Get to business at once and shoot all the guards [520].
521
522
Lead your safe cracker to the safe's door [521]. After a while he will open it and you will be able to enter. Inside, apart from money bags, there is also a small safe [522] - have your safe cracker deal with it. Take all the money with you.
523
524
If you have entered from the front you can exit by demolishing the cracked wall - let your soldier do it [523]. After getting out, run from the police and quickly find a car [524]. Drive to your safehouse - upon entering it, the police will give up and the money will be added to your funds. Using this tactic, you can rob every bank in New York, Florida and on Cuba.
