I was so so so happy to see a new mission from my favourite FM-author :cheeky:

Finished loot with 4487/4792, found 3/5 secrets and all 8 wands

Amazing mission as usual. Mansion missions like this are my favourite type of missions. Interesting storyline, some hidden loot and secrets and those new guys... really creepy! But creepy in the way I like it, not zombie/haunt like. Not to mention those new mage-types.

Nicked, I know how much work and how time-consuming working with dromed is, but I hope you´ll keep on giving us new missions in the future aswell. I can´t express how grateful I am for all this amazing missions you make. I enjoy playing them over and over again. We will never get new OMs from our beloved thief, but being able to play your missions makes the feeling less painful :)

Thank you very much for making this mission, it's great to see such a well polished mission again! Finished it with normal and expert difficulty.

I liked the custom content and the storyline, everything came together in a coherent way. The construct guards were pretty scary, it's a nice touch how they make a loud noise when they hear you and pretty frightening how fast they get to you.. The level looks very well put together and I enjoyed exploring every part of it. + points for having a more or less linear path in the mission. While I don't mind huge levels in thief, sometimes it get's boring or too time consuming to find the missing key or a random room in a huge mansion. The level here is still big, but the plot and partial map guides the player in a way that I don't end up mindlessly searching behind every piece of furniture for a button or item after blackjacking everyone in the level.

While I appreciate the ghosting optional objective, I didn't find it fun enough to actually try ghosting. It results in me saving/loading way too often that it breaks the immersion. And there was no way around saving often because sometimes I would run into bugs like climbing a bookshelf and an invisible force randomly catapults me into the wall killing me instantly. Also, I did finish it twice, but I found the second half of the mission to be pretty repetetive. Too much going back and forth between the astronomy tower and the keep. There are many areas that I missed entirely on my first playthrough that had nothing of interest in them objective wise (captain's house for example) that I think could have been used instead to make it more interesting. But other than that I really enjoyed this mission, thanks again! :thumb:

Super cool mission. I played on Hard and gave up on ghosting around the time I got to the Astronomy Tower. Not because of anything about that section in particular, I just got impatient. Anyway, I really like wizard missions because they tend to have strange and unusual stuff, and this one certainly did. I appreciated all the new additions and thought there was an overall sense of believability to the place. Yes, things are mystical and weird, but I could really imagine the wizards working and living there. And the auto-notes feature was very slick. Thank you Nicked!
