Skier — briefing

Well, well. Look who decided to drop by. You had something important to chat about? It'll keep. I've got something pressing, and you fit the bill. I've got a big shipment lined up through Customs, but the lads moving it are just my usual muscle. In this weather they won't just struggle to fight, they'll barely be able to move. Funny thing is, that actually works in our favor. Less chance of bumping into anyone. That's exactly why I picked this moment. Still, the load's heavy, so I want some cover. Make sure my boys don't cross paths with anyone on Customs, yeah? And wrap up warm yourself. These frosts don't care who you are.

Objectives

• Eliminate any 20 targets on Customs

Tactical notes

• The whole task stays on one map: Customs.
• 20 targets to rack up — that is several raids, not one evening.

On completion

Skier: So, safe corridor's clear? Lovely, mate. If this cold hangs around, we might as well keep cashing in on it. Don't go vanishing on me. I'll be needing you again.
