This was the first T2 FM I've played in quite a while and I enjoyed it.

I think it's easy to miss the warehouse, but I did look for it harder after reading in here that the idol was the third piece of evidence.

How did you get Sean Connery to voice the opening cut scene? :cheeky:

I was testing a new game coming up and also going back to writing a story for another mission. lucky me! Thanks for this mission. I must return to my storytelling duties now, but I got this one under my radar. So I'll be back, after all I'm a Creepy Taffer! :sly:

Very solid, enjoyable fan mission. 8/10 from me.
I do admit, the warehouse was a bit awkward, considering it has no doors... but anyway, got 2/4 secrets and finished all objectives I believe (including optional ofc.)

I'm very glad Conall is back, do we know where this mission stands on Conall FM's timeline?

Couldn't figure where the spyglass is, what to do with the lantern and how to open the door on the ship. 10/10 Perfect.
Thank you for two hours of my life spent well. <3

Last night I finished blind supreme-ghosting this one, oh boy, what a treat!!! Thank you, Random Taffer!

I enjoyed it very much, despite spending an awful lot of time hunting for the last pieces of loot. I initially missed all books, few silvery candlesticks, and a wine bottle in plain sight (that's on me). The loot I ultimately had to skip for supreme (the coins in 2nd upper floor) were referenced in a readable, so while finding them was easy, taking them w/o alerts was a different game. My plan was to come from below, with a rope, but I gave up hoping for the perfect opportunity in the position of the pivoting guard and timing of the patrolling maid - plus the perfect execution from me, given the marbled floor and the finicky railing. So 2620/2682 for me.

Couldn't take the map for this mode, obviously (but luckily this was a hidden objective). I spent also a lot of time figuring out where to use the decrepit key, I suspected the general area, but I passed like a million times by the key lock w/o noticing it. The key to the bedroom safe required also an extra visit to the office, since the first time I was there I was careless, thinking that the loot and the readable are enough.

I will record today another, more efficient, run for the ghost report, now that I know all placements and I devised the optimal route. It is technically not needed to take the manor key, nor Master Willy's key, nor to pick the corresponding doors - so I will try to make it extra challenging (I guess I was influenced too much by klatremus :D). I already went multiple times into (and out of) the office by sneaking past the guard in front of the master bedroom (right positioning of him, and the right opening in the nearby archer's patrol were required...), so it definitely doable. Also, it's possible to "let" Master Willy unlock some doors for us :)

PS: Ghost report (https://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=150710&p=2526482&viewfull=1#post2526482) here. I realised that master's key MUST be taken for supreme, to relock Lady's and servant's bedrooms, and the display for dices (and can also be used to avoid picking their locks in the first place). Thus, my blind run failed supreme, because I should have locked the said doors and the display. Silly me...
