Chapter 5 - Assassination Missions
Visit one of the four cellular towers located in Leboa-Sako or Bowa-Seko to initiate an assassination mission. Walk up to the base of the tower and use the action button. Answer your phone to receive the mission. There are six missions in each area; twelve missions total and they pay diamonds. Certainly worth the effort if you’re hoping to purchase every weapon in the game!
Act 1 Assassination Missions
Locate one of the cellular towers in the area (four of them total, basically one in each compass direction). For example, leave Pala to the east and drive toward the guard station. Eliminate the guards at the station and continue east. You’ll find the cell tower a bit further down the road.
At least regarding the eastern cellular tower, there’s a lot of road patrols. Likely because of the nearby guard stations! Be careful when moving toward the cell tower as you may encounter a mobile patrol up ahead of you; plus, there could be pursuing enemies from the guard station you bypassed.
Note that the targets aren’t assigned in the same order every time so expect the order to be different on your play-through. Just check the map for the target location and match it with the walk-through below.
Target #1: Located in Pala. He’s in an alley. Sneak around to an adjacent alley on the northern side. Equip the machete and sneak up behind the smoking target. When no one is watching, attack and eliminate. If you’re heard, run out of the city.
Target #2: Southeast section in Mokuba. Find it south from the eastern cell tower and beyond a guard station. He’s armed with a pistol. Take him out and attempt to avoid riling up the locals.
Target #3: Located in Pala. Find the target smoking in the alleyway. Sneak up behind him with a machete. Make sure no one is paying attention! If you’re heard, be prepared to flee the city.
Target #4: Located northwest from Pala. Find an airboat next to a dock west out of Pala. Your target is in the town of Shwasana. Approach in the airboat from the south. Ignore the guards just south as they shoot at you. Drive up to the bank south of Shwasana. Stick along the south of the village and keep moving until you’re south of the target. You should be able to find a vantage point to snipe from and eliminate the target from long-range.
Target #5: Directly south on the edge of the map-at the airport. Take the bus to the southwest station. Grab a car and drive east either engaging the safe house troops or avoiding them to the south. Continue to the southern side of the airfield. Park the car and look north into the open hanger doors-the target is just inside. Take him down from long-range. Or sneak into the hanger and eliminate him while he takes a nap.
Target #6: A convoy moves along the southern edge of the map near the airfield. Take the bus to the southwest station. Watch the convoy pattern. You can come equipped with a rocket launcher and blast the target or drop some IEDs along the convoy’s path (watch where it crosses north of the airfield for the easiest spot). The target is in the center vehicle; the front and rear vehicles are providing armed escort.
Act 2 Assassination Missions
Locate one of the cellular towers in the area; check the main map. Drive to one of the towers and use the action button next to the tower to activate the assassination mission.
Note that the targets aren’t assigned in the same order every time so expect the order to be different on your play-through. Just check the map for the target location and match it with the walk-through below.
Target #1: There’s a convoy moving through the northeast. It moves near the northeast bus station. Take the bus there and then set up camp alongside the road. Drop IEDs along the road and wait for the convoy to arrive. The target rides in the middle vehicle; it’s flanked by a couple of armed escorts. Destroy the middle car to complete the task. Spread the IEDs carefully and you can eliminate the lead and trailing escort vehicles as well as the target in a single explosion.
Target #2: Take the bus to the northwest station to reach the nearby target. He’s in the town of Sefapane. The target stands in front of the APR building. You can take him out using any method you wish just expect an uprising when you break the cease-fire. Be prepared to exit the city fast and avoid confrontation from the irritated locals.
Target #3: Proceed to the bus station in the middle of the map-the target is inside Mosate Selao. He’s just walking around the streets and he’s clearly marked on the map. Take him out by any means but just realize that if you cause a ruckus the locals will not be pleased and you’ll have to run out of town.
Target #4:Take the bus to the port just outside Mosate Selao-there’s another target hanging around town. Drive into the town. The target walks around the western side of the city. Take him out using any method you wish but just realize that firing a weapon will cause the locals to retaliate. Use a dart gun to maintain silence. Get out of town and back to the port bus station.
Target #5: There’s a target in Dogon Village; it’s west of the northeast bus station and west of the cellular tower nearest that bus station. The town isn’t friendly so it’s best to try and sneak inside. Use a silent weapon so you don’t attract too much attention. You can eliminate enemy guards as you move through Dogon toward the target but keep it quiet. There are some ladders attached to buildings; climb the ladders to get on rooftops for a better shot at the target. Eliminate the target and flee the town.
Target #6: Take the bus to the center station at Port Selao. Check the map and spot the target at the guard station to the east. Drive through Mosate Selao and exit to the east. Get out of the car as you near the guard station. Move on the right side of the road and into the brush. Use a sniper to scope the guard post. Locate the target and then eliminate.
