Call a Sitdown
Travel to the old mansion (1) in the Bayou Fantom and enter the front door to trigger a long cinematic. Lincoln’s three new Underbosses meet for the first time, and it’s not a happy gathering. Bad blood flows through the criminal underworld, and it takes a strong hand to keep troops in order. Fortunately, Lincoln Clay has everyone’s attention and respect now.
Lincoln details his plan to lay waste to Marcano’s organization from the bottom up. The first step is to take out the three remaining lieutenants who run the Barclay Mills, Tickfaw Harbor, and Downtown districts. Then hit the capos in Frisco Fields, French Ward, and Southdowns. Once all the Marcano soldiers have been taken down, Sal and Giorgi will be isolated, defunded, and vulnerable. Finally, Lincoln reveals the news about Marcano’s casino. Afterwards, he meets Donovan who monitored the meeting.

What Now?
After the sit-down, your map suddenly explodes with possibilities. You can meet up with Donovan and continue plotting your takedown of the Marcano organization in New Bordeaux by hitting three new districts: Barclay Mills, Tickfaw Harbor, and Downtown.
Or you can pursue a number of optional side missions that bring in cash and keep your Underbosses happy. Check out our Optional Missions chapter for guidance through those opportunities.
Our Story walkthrough will stick to the plan devised by Lincoln and Donovan to bring down Sal Marcano. We’ll work through districts in the order they’re listed on your Objectives Panel. Each district takeover begins by meeting Donovan in his mobile tac-ops center, a blue Marquis’ Fine Liquors delivery van.
