Three Leaf Clover
Introduction
Packie introduces you to his brothers. Once everyone gets to know each other, it's time to rob a bank. Just like that...
Bank Me Off
Grab a four seater vehicle and pick up the guys. Once they're in the car, make your way to the bank by following your GPS. Once you arrive, head inside and watch the cutscene that looks like it's come straight out of a movie. Once the safe's been blown open, you need to head downstairs and get the money.
Making A Withdrawal
Once that's done, you'll see another Hollywood-esque cutscene where the cops surround the place. Head to the doorway and fire off some shots at the cops outside using an assault rifle. After you've taken a few of the closer cops out, Packie and the guys will run around the corner to the right into an alley. The area is infested with cops, so take some cover behind whatever objects are available to you and take out all of the cops in the alleyway. Cover is vitally important to you if you don't want to end up dead.
Once the first batch of cops are taken care of, head down the alley and kill a bunch more to both ends of the street. You can take cover behind one of the police cars. Make sure you zoom in with the M4 Carbine, and try to get headshots to save ammo. Remember to reload whenever you get a chance to save you from having to do it in the middle of a firefight.
China Town Shootout
Once these cops are dead, Packie will tell you to head down the street. Make your way across the road, firing at the cops who are close enough to pose a threat, then go into the back streets of China Town. Take cover against the wall and fire at the two or three cop cars which have just arrived. Keep emptying bullets into them until they're all gone. Firing at the car and making that blow up is a quick way to clear them out but it'll take a fair amount of ammo.
Move further down the street and take cover again. Kill all of the cops in close proximity, then when you get the chance, run to the end of the street. Take cover against the wall and fire at the cops in the road blocks to either side. When it feels safe, sprint across the street and into the alleyway.
Airborne Attack!
You'll see a cutscene where you escape from a chopper by moving into the subway. Head down to the ticket machine area, killing two or three cops as you go. No doubt you'll be low on health by now, so stay in a lot of cover. You'll need to kill about 10 cops before it'll be safe enough to head down to the platform, but Packie and Derrick will take out a fair few. Fire at those you can hit, then once they're all dead, go through the gate.
To The Platform
You'll find a health pack stuck to one of the pillars up here, so grab it, then head down the stairs to the platform. Take cover against the support pillars and shoot at the cops on the other side of the platform. After a few of them are down, Packie will tell you to run into the subway tunnel. Once you get a hundred yards or so along it, you'll need to turn around and kill a good twenty or so cops who are trying to pin you down.
Packie and Derrick will run off down the tunnel, so make sure you follow them, and head off the tracks and up into the next platform. Go into the door and grab the health pack from the wall if you need it, then head upstairs to street level.
Escape The Cops!
More cops will show, and you'll need to find a four seater car again. Luckily there's a Huntley parked right outside the station entrance on the road. Break into it and steal it, then make your way to the bridge. Follow your GPS to get you there, then run the road block and speed across the bridge. If you're lucky, about half way across you'll be out of the wanted radius and you can sit still for a few seconds to lose your wanted level. Now just make your way back to Packie's Ma's house.

Mission Tips
- Stock up on health and armour before this mission. You WILL need it.
- Pick up weapons from dead cops only if they're close enough to do so.
- During the China Town and alley way shoot outs be sure to check some of the side alleys. You will find bits of wood on the floor that are covering steps down to cellar doors. Stand on the wood to fall through and land on some first aid.
- Keep an eye on Packie. He'll usually run off and leave you, so make sure you don't get left too far behind or the cops will overwhelm you.
- After the mission you'll receive a load of calls and texts unlocking Gerry and Derrick McReary's mission sets.
- Alderney Island is fully unlocked and can be accessed via bridge without getting a wanted level.
