Dossier
Robbery is confirmed explicitly in Trailer 1 with Jason and Lucia exiting a Vice City convenience store during a holdup. The activity spans from the opportunistic small-scale store robbery to the planned heist operation. Both ends of the spectrum are present in the activity.
The convenience store robbery is the baseline. Fast, simple, low planning requirement, and low reward per individual hit but high frequency of available targets. The armored car robbery is the mid-tier: Brute Security vehicles on their routes, higher yield, and a response that comes with the vehicle rather than arriving from outside.
Small robbery mechanics: enter the premises, display a weapon, manage the staff and customer response, collect the cash, and exit before the VCPD arrives. Speed is the primary variable. A fast small robbery generates minimal response. A slow one gives the staff time to trigger an alarm.
Large-scale robbery is the heist framework. Planning, crew management, approach routes, and the layered response that a major Vice City target generates. The heist framework in Leonida with the Leonida context: Vice City financial infrastructure, Port Gellhorn cargo, and the targets that the criminal economy provides.
