    I'll try to explain this achievement because the game doesn't exactly explain rackets-attack and enforcers-killing very well.

    Some time into the game, you'll start getting missions to attack rackets. These rackets usually take the form of illegal businesses like prostitution, contraband, union extortion, etc. To initiate an attack, you'd first need to speak to a contact. Once this is done, several icons will appear on the map. These icons are the locations of the various establishments forming the rackets.

    To attack a racket, your task is to cause enough damage to these establishments, until the racket boss appears in the main warehouse. The damage required differs from racket to racket. It usually ranges between $20,000 to $30,000 per racket during the earlier missions, but may go as high as $100,000 later. To "damage" a racket, you'd need to go to the locations where the icons are, and start wrecking havoc. Again, the tasks you need to do varies from racket to racket. You could hurt them by stealing money, helping prostitutes escape, stealing medical supplies, destroying contraband items, and killing enforcers.

    To unlock this achievement, you'd need to ensure that in the process of dealing damage to a racket, you never, ever kill an enforcer. These enforcers are easy to spot - their locations appear on the map as some sort of a skull/ alien icon. To be safe, I'd suggest never even approaching these locations at all. Focus on dealing damages at other icons instead - there's definitely enough things to do to deal sufficient damage to force the boss out without killing the enforcers. You can kill all other enemies, just make sure you don't kill these dudes. They also have the word "KILL" above their heads to make it easier for you to spot them.

    Note: Always use the cn_back button to use "instinct", Hitman-style, to spot the locations of enemies during fights. This makes things so much easier. Instinct also usually points you to your objectives, show the locations of medical/ weapon cabinets (so that you can refill), locations of money to steal, etc.

    Once you deal enough damage to a racket, i.e., reduce the required amount to $0, the racket boss will appear in their HQ. Go talk to your contact to launch a final attack on the racket. Select cn_A to accept that all undone missions in this racket will be forfeited forever, and the achievement will unlock. Yes, you don't even need to take on the boss. The achievement will unlock before you head to the boss fight.

    PS: Do note though that enforcers that are not killed during the earlier attacks will appear at the HQ to make the boss fight somewhat harder. Also, it'd be better to try to get this achievement done in the earlier rackets, because the later ones are much harder to do. One later mission has as many as eight enforcers - you won't want to spare them before going to the racket boss.

    Jayrg79First instance this can be done was "Smack" mission. Game tells you to kill Charlie's enforcers. I was curious and went to both missions. killed all the enemies except the enforcers. Lured enforcers out so I can loot all cash, and destroy objectives. In the end, I was able to get enough to progress to the racket boss. Achievement popped after speaking to Donovan.

    This achievement is pretty easy once you've understood it. There are lots of opportunites to get this achievement. I personally got it while conquering Tickfaw Harbor.

    An enforcer a has skull symbol on it. So do not complete these missions when conquering a district. Complete all of the other missions to get the required amount of damage.

    Once you have caused enough damage talk to your contact and the achievement will unlock when you're finished speaking to him/her.

    Hope this helped.

    After the initial 3 districts you have to take control of, the game opens up a bit. During this time there are rackets that do not have enforcers (such as the Garbage racket in Barclay Mills). When I chose to go after the boss for the Garbage racket, the achievement popped for me. Getting this through this natural progression allows you to continue to complete all the racket missions to increase your "take" on each racket before taking it over.

    NOTE: As noted by other users in the comments, this may occur with other rackets and not necessarily the Garbage racket in Barclay Mills. Either way, the natural progression should work at some point in the story.

    BertieHothWill just try another one, Burke or Vito probably, without attacking Enforcers, and see how it goes. The only reason I can think this didn't pop was that I did kill an enforcer BUT it was one of the ones from the Garbage racket, who turned up in a car and attacked ME while I was attempting a Guns mission elsewhere. That shouldn't count should it?

    Warboy925If it did count, that is one hell of a glitch!! Try doing ONE racket at one time without messing with any enforcer missions and see if that works......good luck!!!!

    FlabyoI suspect they've patched this at some point, I didn't get this pop when completing a racket that had no enforcers at all, only when I did one that had enforcers and I left them alive.
