shooting the lord over and over with holy water until he finally runs for help is when the games become cat & mouse game
Soon after you chase him, he vanishes outta nowhere
Seeing the lord running around panic-stricken to check his vases was really scary.

Maybe I´m too early, but Is there a lootlist available for this mission?

Cool mission. I too completed, but 50 loot short. I've since searched for that last 50, but simply cannot find it. Another play through may be more fruitful.
I do have to admit I used AI limitations (I guess cheating) to escape if found. One last guard I didn't black jack became a super pest. He changed his rounds to all sorts of paths. He also could see me in complete darkness. Once alerted, he stayed on point for the rest of the game. This was a guy patrolling the first floor sitting room, etc. A bit challenging. He had to search for me in the snow a lot. Finally got him.
Fun FM overall. It took me about an hour, but I was going slow and trying to semi-ghost at first. I gave up on that after about 15 minutes of play :) Another good FM from the author Vegetables. Thanks.
How does one use "AI Limitations"? Asking for a friend.

For example, if you are seen by a guard, you can climb the ladder from the outside building to the crypt area, and wait there for a short time. The guard can't climb the ladder, but knows a way through the house towards where you sit now. But when the guard has just turned away and ran out of sight of you, you can go back to the other end of the ladder, walk a bit until the guard arriving at the other end will not see you, and then he will be confused and unable to follow you. You can then sneak away and continue thieving.
Another way would be to jump from a balcony if a guard is in pursuit of you, and run away from where you land before the guard arrives there. Again, he/she will be confused, and search for you while you might sneak away from your pursuer.
Tell that to your friend.:p

This was a really fun mission with great atmosphere. Nice work, Vegetables

I have a soft spot for snowy wintery maps and you really nailed the atmosphere with this one.

Fun, with a great attention to detail, and like others had mentioned, an engaging villain :p
If anyone has a problem finding Winter's Heart, It's on the Lord's cane, you can pick it up when he falls down.
8/10 for me

Congrats on the release, vegetables! I enjoyed the mission. Loved the textures in the mansion and the general layout, was fun sneaking through it. The bad guy was challenging but not too so, and added a nice bit of spice to the gameplay, lol. A thoroughly enjoyable couple of hours with a good story and nice thiefy gameplay. A classic little mansion mission and just what the doctor ordered. Thank you!

Cool short mission where the Lord was definitely a highlight of the mission. His unpredictable behaviour and patrols made progressing hard and interesting. In the end I used balconies to dodge guards and Lord as sneaking became harder still when smashing the vases.

Wow, quite original idea, congrats, the implementation added the scary factor too (almost cr*pped my pants when I heard the creepy main character hasting to check the first broken vase - in the basement, when I knew very well that last time I saw him he was upstairs - and I HAD read the diary about him 'disappearing', so I should have known...). Chilling atmosphere in a manor with a definite air of decrepitude...
Blind Supreme Ghost in 28:58 (with VERY few reloads, at silly first alerts) - but missing 50 loot, so I need to dive deeper, obviously something is ingeniously hidden.
PS: found the last golden plate, deviously indeed.
