His wife's name is not in the security report, it's on a card with the flowers in their house.

Since words cannot adequately describe how outstanding this mission is, here's all I can offer...

Extra Special Congrats, Eshaktaar!! After watching me play FMs for years, my husband has played all 3 the original Thief games but never tried an FM. He was watching me play Broken Triad and asked me to help him get set up to play FMs because he really wanted to play it. I did & he's playing right now. I'm hoping to convince him to play Ominous Bequest next! :D :thumb:
I'm quite jealous of him, I've played FM's for years and they've provided me with hours and hours of fun the thought of only just finding them and having this treasure trove to play through for the first time :wot: ... you realise you've probably lost him to Garrett now don't you :cheeky:

and I have to say this is a fabulous mission just starting part two now, got 7 out of the 8 (thanks to hints in here) secrets sadly I drank the potion before I found out about one of them and can't go back for it I do have a save tho so I may go back and try for all of them but the thought of those ash zombies is sapping my desire to do that a little ..... but only a little :ebil:
excellent :thumb:

Just finished both missions, very well done on both.
The first starts out as standard Thief fare - though the explanation of 'all those horns' was quite funny. Just when you think you've got it... It's Shyamalan time: "What a twist!"
The second one the 'new' bad guys were interesting, but could have used a bit more 'depth' to them. In the end I ended up needing to work out a little frustration and cut a bloody swath through them - NOT my typical thief playstyle. Would also have been nice to have been able to loot the bodies given the adornments... Had the same reaction all over Tempest as I was trying to frob every single light-source because they all looked like loot.
I stumbled upon the treasury by accident since I never saw the scarabs - I actually got the code before I read the bit about the waterfall, and must have made it through on blind luck. Ended up botching the jump off the top of ladder trying to get out (without a save - I'm usually in the habit of saving within 10 feet of any ladder just because I end up doing faceplants off the top of them so often), went back and... hey, where'd the treasury go?
In Mission 1 - silly question about the music... Was that ripped from VTM:Redemption by any chance? The twinkly piano parts just really remind me of that game for some reason.

Two really great missions. Full of surprises and thoroughly enjoyable.
It must have required a huge effort to produce such a high quality FM!
For that I Thank you! :thumb:

Any news on those little "Easter eggs" hidden in the mission(s)? Haven´t heard anything new for some time now.
Thank you for a few hints in the right direction!

I have a list, but I leave that up to Eshaktaar. I don't think any of the testers should post them, even under spoilers, without his consent.
Eshaktaar on 4/7/2008 at 15:30
There will be a list of things you might have missed in both mission soon. Should I post it in here or make a separate thread?

zil made that particular piece for the Hammerite Imperium, and allowed me to use it in the mission.

I think it could be in its own thread, if you include with the hidden things the "things you never knew about BT" that you posted on the test forum.
