==Plot Elements==
*In 1998, Leone mobster Antonio "Toni" Cipriani, forced to live abroad for four years following his murder of a made man, returns home to Liberty City. His boss, Don Salvatore Leone, welcomes him back and assigns him to work under another Leone mobster, Vincenzo "Lucky" Cilli, who despises Toni.
*During his work for Vincenzo, Toni meets JD O'Toole, a member of the rival Sindacco family looking to switch allegiances, and begins working with him to take down the Sindaccos.
*Later, Vincenzo tries to set up Toni to be arrested during a job, but the latter escapes and cuts ties with Vincenzo as a result.
*During this time, Toni finds that his mother disapproves of his low rank in the Leone family and attempts to impress her, but is eventually forced to stay away after she calls a hit on him.
*After Toni helps JD to take over a Sindacco club, the latter is invited to officially join the Leones as a made man. However, this turns out to be a ruse and JD is killed on the orders of Salvatore, who feared he could betray the Leones just like he had the Sindaccos.
*Following JD's death, Salvatore begins to personally assign work to Toni, including looking after his trophy wife Maria. Vincenzo soon becomes jealous of Toni's newfound position in the Leone family and lures him into an ambush to be killed, but Toni survives and kills Vincenzo.
*Toni later uncovers evidence that Sicilian Mafia underboss Massimo Torini is orchestrating plans for minor gangs to take control of the Leones' territory, whilst they're engaged in a war with the Sindacco and Forelli families.
*After helping to escort Salvatore downtown as problems arise, Toni earns his trust and becomes a made man within the Leone family, causing his mother to call off the hit on him.
*Toni soon finds himself entrusted with killing the city's mayor, controlled by the Forellis, and assisting business tycoon Donald Love into becoming his replacement.
*However, Donald goes bankrupt after his ties to the Leones are discovered and loses to his rival Miles O'Donovan, who promptly has Salvatore arrested on several charges soon after his election.
*Toni remains loyal to Salvatore, and continues to take jobs from him in prison, including killing Don Paulie Sindacco as revenge for having Salvatore arrested.
*Later, Donald enlists Toni's help in rebuilding his fortune and hires him to kill his former mentor Avery Carrington, steal his city development plans, and destroy the Forelli-controlled district of Fort Staunton with explosives, so that Donald's company would receive funding to re-develop it.
*During this time, Toni is also manipulated into committing crimes to further the career of news reporter Ned Burner, whom he later kills to prevent him from exposing Toni and Donald's involvement in Avery's murder. He also takes on jobs from Toshiko Kasen, the neglected wife of Yakuza leader Kazuki Kasen (Keenan Shimizu), to sabogate her husband's operations.
*After Toni kills Kazuki during a confrontation, a guilt-ridden Toshiko commits suicide.
*With the Leones now the most powerful Mafia family in Liberty City following their victory over the Sindaccos and Forellis, Salvatore finds himself targeted by his rivals, forcing Toni to protect him before his trial.
*Upon being released on bail, Salvatore deduces that Torini organized the mob war and rigged the mayoral elections, and suspects that his next move will be to kidnap O'Donovan to prevent him from dropping the charges against Salvatore.
*After killing Torini and rescuing O'Donovan with Toni's help, Salvatore coerces the mayor into granting his family immunity from the law. He then goes with Toni to confront his uncle, the true head of the Sicilian Mafia and Torini's boss.
*Although Uncle Leone feigns ignorance to Torini's actions and elects to return to Sicily, Salvatore knows that he was responsible for all the attempts to weaken the Leones' control over Liberty City, as revenge for Salvatore not paying him tribute.
*Nevertheless, with his uncle no longer a threat, Salvatore settles in with controlling the city, while Toni is promoted to caporegime as repayment for his assistance.
