This mission will unlock the main sector of the city. The western half of Vice City. This mission will start with you in the doorway of a helicopter with Lance Vance piloting it. You will have a rifle with unlimited ammo. You will reach a small bungalow and start the action. Your health will not be affected when those henchmen attack you, but the heli's health will deplete. Before you are downed you have to go on shooting down those people. At the end, you are dropped off in front of a mansion and told that the money is on the terrace. You should now advisably use an auto-targetting weapon, especially a submachine gun and shoot down more people in the deserted mansion. Be carful, as they are everywhere - lurking in doorways, stairways, etc. You have to reach the easily accessible roof as soon as possible. Grab the money and Lance will take you back to where you started, Diaz's mansion. You now have access to the Escobar International Airport, Little Havana, Little Haiti, VCN building, Downtown, Hyman Memorial Stadium and many more hot places in the other side of Vice City that were never accessible before.

Phnom Penh '86 is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City given to protagonist Tommy Vercetti by drug baron Ricardo Diaz from his mansion on Starfish Island, Vice City.

Mission

Diaz is aggravated by some Sharks gangsters who tries to screw with him. He orders Tommy to go to Prawn Island and kill the gangsters. He wants Tommy to fly there, using the help of his associate, Lance Vance.

Tommy and Lance travel to Prawn Island via helicopter from the mansion. Once they arrive, Tommy uses the M60 to take on little groups of the gang on the roofs. Once Tommy has cleared enough of the gang, he'll have to run in on-foot and take out any remaining hoodlums inside. He fights his way through the gang house and walks up the stars. He then runs up to the roof, kills Diaz' betrayer, picks up the cash, and gets to be airlifted back to the mansion.

Script

Post-mission phone call

Colonel Juan Cortez: Tommy, it's me, Colonel Cortez. Look señor, I believe you are a man who can get things done. So please help me. You can find me at the boat.

Reward

The reward for this mission is $2,000. The missions Sir, Yes Sir!, Two Bit Hit (if Demolition Man has been completed), and The Fastest Boat are unlocked. The player may now also access the Vice City Mainland. The player can also keep the M-60 from the mission. The Sniper Rifle is unlocked for purchase for the player at the North Point Mall Ammu-Nation store. The ability to obtain a 5-star wanted level is also unlocked.

  • A worker, like ones seen in Riot, can be seen jumping off of the bridge that the helicopter flies under. The camera must be pointed behind the helicopter to see this.
  • Lance's Maverick in the cutscene has sliding doors, much like an NPC-controlled VCPD Maverick, but outside this cutscene, the rear doors on helicopters swing open instead.
  • When approaching Leaf Links, a Sparrow and a Sea Sparrow will fly by. They can be destroyed with no penalty.
  • It is possible to shoot and kill the Thief before he shouts "You're on my turf, asshole!" which will cut the scene short or completely skip it if the player acts quickly enough.
