The scrolls in the observatory do nothing. I assume you are playing on expert. You can pick up the scrolls, but you can't read them.

Sorry I took so long to reply. I suggest:

[SPOILER]Using a moss arrow to quiet your steps. (one can be found right outside the observatory in a bush) Then wait for him to turn his back, sneak up and back stab him.[/SPOILER]

Once I pulled my head out of the DromEd swamp recently, this has been the very first FM I've tried playing. Very enjoyable so far with a good mix of story and very nice terrain design. Just wanted to add my own praise for a job well-done :thumb:

Excellent mission, Hipbreaker.:D Great architecture, lighting, music, layout, and game play. I finished on Expert having BJ'ed all the AI that I could find except one who I gassed, missing 381 loot (:().

I tried ghosting it at first. I discovered with some trial and error that two AI spawn when you take the last candlestick in the dining room. That annoyed me just a little, but OK, I left the last one behind and proceeded. Then, when I went back into the music room for the second time to get some stuff I had missed, I got not only Daffyd's screeching lady on the stairway (for no reason) but an archer with eyes in the back of his head, wearing a nuclear-powered hearing-aid, plus a lady in a pew who would alert after a certain amount of time had elapsed, say 20 seconds, while I was standing invisible and motionless behind her. Well, that tore it. Got out the BJ and nailed 40 of them including the police in their upstairs quarters. :)

After a few failures, I found an interesting way to kill the bad guy.[SPOILER]I let him chase me into town, and I ran around like crazy with him right on my tail, attracting guards and blue coats to the retinue, who finished him off from the rear but left me untouched. Then I beat it back home with a train of guards behind me. Luckily, the guards did not follow past a certain point.[/SPOILER]

As for designing a mission to be ghostable, I am generally not in favor of that because, unless it is done with great skill and with the introduction of some difficult situations, it almost always makes the mission too easy for all concerned, even the ghosters. If you want to try that, however, I would be pleased to work with you.

Thanks for the mission.:)
