Complete walkthrough for the Les Invalides Social Club missions in Assassin's Creed Unity: Spiked Bourbon, Special Delivery, and Smoky Yet Robust. Learn how to take down targets and complete objectives.

Alright, let's dive into the Les Invalides Social Club missions in Assassin's Creed Unity. These are a bit different from the main story, focusing on taking down specific targets to disrupt the Templar influence in the area. We've got three missions here: Spiked Bourbon, Special Delivery, and Smoky Yet Robust. Renovating the Les Invalides Cafe unlocks these, so make sure you've got that sorted!

Spiked Bourbon

This mission kicks off with the Council of Five Hundred wanting some major players taken out. You'll start by teleporting to the search zones near the Palais Bourbon. There are four Templars walking around, each with their own patrol route. First things first, you absolutely need to deal with the snipers on the rooftops. They're a serious threat, so take them out before you do anything else. Then, work your way from south to north.

The southernmost Templar patrols in a figure-eight around the gardens outside the restricted zone. Since you're not in a restricted area, you can take your time finding him. Once you spot him, blend into the crowds and go for a Hidden Blade kill when no guards are looking. Easy peasy.

Next, climb the palace walls again and head for the central plaza to find the second Templar. Follow him until he's on one side of the plaza, making him a good candidate for an air assassination. Use Cherry Bombs to distract the guards at either end of the plaza. With them looking away, you can air assassinate your target and then quickly climb back up a wall. The key here is to do it without being spotted.

For the third Templar, cross the rooftops to the west side of the palace. You'll find him in a small, fenced garden below. If you time your air assassination right, you can immediately run to the nearby lift and get back to the rooftops to escape any guards who spot you.

The final Templar is up at the north end of the palace, outside the restricted zone, patrolling around the cannons. Like the target in the south garden, use the crowds to sneak up behind him for a Hidden Blade kill when the coast is clear of guards.

Once all four targets are eliminated, just escape the area to wrap up this mission.

Special Delivery

This one's about a series of robberies in Les Invalides, pointing to someone in an official position. The Council wants you to find and assassinate this leader.

Head to the heavily guarded search area and use Eagle Vision to spot your target. Instead of going in, hang back in the alley south of the zone. The officer you're looking for will leave the search area and head down a dirt path. Follow him, but don't try to steal from him yet. He'll eventually turn left into a narrow alley between a stone wall and a wooden fence, which is conveniently guard-free. Once it's clear, pickpocket the officer to get the package and update your quest.

Now, make your way to the next waypoint and drop off the package with the entry guards. You'll learn the leader is a guy named Colonel L’Au. Head east along the restriction zone and look into the first courtyard; L'Au should be easy to spot with Eagle Vision. He walks a long path between courtyards, so if you spot him quickly, pull out your Phantom Blades and go for a headshot to end this quickly. If you miss your chance, you'll have to wait for him to loop back around or restart from the last checkpoint. Once he's dead, just lose any pursuers to finish the mission.

Smoky Yet Robust

This mission involves Royalist Chouans attacking vineyards to pressure locals into supporting their cause. Your job is to head to the vineyards and take them all out.

This is a tough one because the vineyard has 13 targets in a pretty small area. Make sure your consumables are fully stocked, and consider using the Assassin Cache ability if you have it. The easiest way to handle this is to get onto the roof of the building next to the shop. From there, use Berserk Blades on some nearby guards to make them fight each other, clustering the enemies. Then, hit them with Poison Gas. After that, use your Phantom Blades on any remaining enemies to thin the herd. You can buy more consumables if you need them.

Once all 13 targets are dead, the mission is complete.
