I went to
level 4, in the most southern tunnel there's a river of lava coming out of the mountain wall. Since I like to explore I jumped straight into it and discovered that even though I died I could still move and swim on through. I found a small room behind containing a zombie. I wasn't able to find a way around the lava into that room.lol... I found it too, following your directions, and the subtitles wrote "did you missed me?"

Awesome mission. Just finished this one with a few hints. I hope you were not offended by my monitor comment. I did just fine on my 17" laptop.
Really appreciate all your effort to produce this campaign. Thank you Zontik

Posted here, but deleted it as I figured out what I needed and finished the mission. I have a few comments.
[spoiler]
1. Getting down to the 4th level of the mine was a pain and I thought I would have to go back to a previous save in order to finish the mission. I initially jumped down the elevator hole by throwing a crate down and landing on it. Took some damage but got me down. A rope arrow would have been good to put the crate on the edge of the elevator shaft and rope down. I didn't initially find the key and only took 1 fire arrow, not realizing the 2nd was there. I thought I was screwed because I went back up, just to realize that I needed a 2nd fire arrow. I lucked out and jumped down landing on a crate again and barely survived. This time I had the key, but didn't really need it.
2. I had no idea on the brakes of the train and would not have found them if not reading hints here.
3. Since you need the bedroll, it would be nice to "FAIL" the mission if something happens to it. I know she said something when first finding it that it would be used for something, but if you happen to lose it somehow, you can't finish the mission and have to go back. I could not jump back from the locomotive to the box car on the roof of the train since I had left the bedroll behind and didn't get the gas mines. I kept getting stuck on the edge of the boxcar and couldn't make the roof. I had to reload a previous save. 4 were definitely unnecessary too. I brought the bedroll to the locomotive, just to hold it. I think maybe the bedroll should have been an inventory item. Also, when I removed the brakes, each time I had a problem dropping them.
4. Didn't mention this earlier, but when I first went to Victoria, within 1 minute, my mission kept failing. I didn't get enough time to go through the town. So I proceeded with doing more with Garrett and then went back to Victoria and eventually it was fine.
[/spoiler]
I have to say that these missions so far are quite unorthodox. I do say they are extremely challenging and enjoyable. I'm about to start mission 5. I commend you for your ingenuity and creativity. Though without some hints, I probably could not get through them. I try and explore as much as possible, but keep coming up short with the secrets.

Well done for getting through that one.
You should enjoy Saboteur even though it is not easy to beat without looking up in the forum, Pathfinder is similar in style and even more obscure than Partner, and Heretic is just extraordinarily good, a monster sized monastery mission that will have you running around for hours.
I'm 3/4 through writing a walkthrough for this campaign, should be able to post in about a week or so.

I had a great time playing the Garrett side of this mission. Not so much with Victoria.
I got her on the train and Garrett was poised to destroy the arches, but the two crucial tools Victoria needs to finish would randomly disappear from my inventory before I could use them or would fail to appear at all.
I resorted to the "force end of mission" control sequence to get to the next mission.
An interesting concept which I was eager to see play out which, sadly, didn't work because of some minor, but absolutely critical, glitches.

I also noted that the key or whatever it was that opened the locomotive's cabin did frequently disappear during the mission part with Victoria. I have not determined a reason for this, though, and was usually able to complete the mission with a few tries. Still, some bug seems to hide there somewhere.
The only other frequent problematic bug I found was in the "Pathfinder" mission, where a Pagan sometimes accidentally burnt to death during his strange ritual.
