Episode VIII of Queen’s Gambit is out! The three target trope will never end with me, haha
Objectives:
- Eliminate Emmanuel Bourgeois
- Eliminate Charlotte Bolton
- Eliminate Irina Vladimir
- Do NOT pacify or eliminate Olvin Shillingford
This one was interesting because all four key individuals of the mission are around the bar area. At first glance, it seems difficult to get a flowy route. I also enjoyed throwing the complication of not hurting Olvin because he always is near Irina and displays many opportunities to kill him.

"Push Comes to Shove" Tutorial
Raoul Blanc is the CICADA bodyguard who is frantically searching for his pistol. He is located near the visitor entrance of the auction. There are multiple closets as well as a room to hide Raoul’s body in. His pistol is under the one of the couches he looks at.
Enjoy!
