Overview

In Home Invasion, Ryder wants military weapons for the Families and has learned of a retired army officer, Colonel Fuhrberger, who keeps a stockpile in his East Beach house. At night CJ sneaks inside to steal the crates while the old man sleeps. It is the game's first stealth mission.

Ryder's plan follows a tip from LB, another Families member, about the colonel's stockpile. The mission introduces stealth mechanics, including the noise meter, which return later in missions such as Madd Dogg's Rhymes. On the drive back, CJ urges Ryder to give up drugs, a small moment that adds to the tension between them.

Walkthrough

  1. Wait until night, then get into the black Boxville with Ryder.
  2. Drive to Colonel Fuhrberger's house in East Beach.
  3. Enter crouched and move slowly to keep the noise meter low.
  4. Pick up crates one at a time and carry them back to the van.
  5. Collect at least three crates (six for the full haul) before dawn.
  6. Drive to the lockup in Willowfield and unload.

Tips

  • Crouch and walk; running and bumping into objects raises the noise meter.
  • If the colonel wakes, wait in another room for him to settle.
  • Plan a route that avoids his bedroom where possible.
