Objectives of The Fine Joys of Tobacco
1. Get on the wagon / Go to Caliga Hall
When you get close to Caliga Hall, Sean will take over the reins and you will hide in the wagon to avoid being recognized by Grays' guards.
2. Hide in the wagon while Sean drives into Caliga Hall
Sean will drive up to the estate gate, where he will be stopped by a guard - Hamish Gray. Sean will introduce himself as a new coachman and offer him a free bottle of liquor.
Hamish will get on the wagon and show Sean the way to a place where he can unload the goods.
3. Hide in the wagon until it's safe to exit / Take out the guard silently / Help Sean to hide the body
Sean will distract Hamish by talking to him. Get out of the wagon, come to Hamish quietly from behind and take him out. If you don't do it fast enough, Sean will do the job, but then forget about the gold medal in this mission.
You'll pull the body in and close the door. Then you will stay at the barn until dusk. Sean will prepare some fire bottles that can be used to set the fields on fire.
4. Follow Sean
Follow Sean from the barn and hide when another car pulls up. It's a payroll wagon.
When the wagon departs, Sean will quietly eliminate the guard who's left, and you will be able to enter the fields and start pouring flammable liquid.
5. Douse the tobacco fields with moonshine
There are seven areas that need to be doused. They are marked on the map. If you want to earn the gold medal, then you have to douse all fields within 2 minutes 20 seconds.
Go to each field and pour the moonshine as you walk. When you pour enough, the yellow area will disappear and you can move on to the next one.
Watch out for the guards patrolling the paths between the fields. To avoid detection, cross to the other side only when the guards are turned backwards to you.
Note: When hiding amongst tobacco plants guards will not be able to see you easily.
Note: In the upper right corner of the screen you can see the amount of flammable substance left in your container.
6. Meet Sean at the barn / Wait for Sean to douse the barn / Burn the barn
Head towards the barn. Sean will arrive just before you and quietly eliminate the guard there.
Then he will start to pour flammable substance inside the barn. When he's finished, take the fire bottle and throw it inside the barn.
The barn will start to burn.
7. Burn the tobacco fields
Now toss the fire bottles in the tobacco field until the yellow target area disappears.
8. Take out the Grays' guards
You will be attacked by a few guards. Before you can move on, you will have to kill them.
9. Follow Sean to the horses
Follow Sean through the burning fields, taking out any guards you meet, until you reach the horses attached to the payroll wagon.
10. Free the horses while Sean looks for the payroll / Wait for Sean
Cut the horses off from the wagon.
Get on one of them and wait until Sean gets on the other one.
11. Escape with Sean
Follow Sean. If you want to get the gold medal, you have to kill 5 opponents before you leave the ranch, which can be quite difficult as Sean also shoots at them and he is very good at it. An additional hindrance could be poor visibility. That's why Dead Eye is very useful at this point.
When you get away to a safe distance, you will stop and share what Sean found in the payroll wagon. You will get $212.50. At the end you can choose whether you want to automatically return with Sean to your camp or stay where you are.
