How I finished this on expert without hints is beyond me, 4hrs & 10 minutes without getting a single secret lol. Congrats on a great mission.

2.) Its the english one patched to german (so german i guess)

Having a great time with this mission. The warehouse area is so beautifully constructed - the big crane is a very clever construction.
The 2 kinds of warehouse keys I have won't open a number of doors leading to one section (the forge must be in there?).
Is there another kind of key for this or should I keep hunting around for another access route?

@ redleaf

Those doors open from the other side. Try checking the outside base level of the building.

Thank you, Gort. I will start looking.

This game has a bug. Got into the room of statues. Got locked in when the gate closed. Used a key to open the panel with the button but unable to reach the button to rotate statue due to the gate. No way to get pass them. Used rope arrow to jump above them but still no dice.

@ onetruekeeper

Let me see if I'm reading this right... You were able to get all the way to the Hand of Fate, right?
Did you grabbed the Hand of Fate? If so, you should put it back if you don't have the item that replaces it. Only putting the Hand of Fate back will open that gate right now.

Thanks.
I managed to get out of that room of statues by climbing the rope arrow then I had to land at a specific place among the statues then make my way to the place where I got the Hand of Glory then placed a bag of dust on it to open the gate. There was one statue which I could cross in front of and it did not zap me back near the door.

I seem to be stuck near the beginning of the mission
[spoiler]i have knocked out everyone except the guard with the helmet/pot over his head. Obviously I can't get past the 3 guards standing outside a door so now I'm stuck.How to proceed? Do i have to get in the warehouse? If so,how? All i see is two unfrobbable doorknobs on an unfrobable door![/spoiler]

dedaki, knocking out everyone can indeed lead to problems, at least near the beginning of the mission.

After beginning the mission, the player should look for a scroll carried around by a civilian woman. She usually comes around a corner at the first junction the player reaches, shortly after the player arrives there. The player can steal the scroll from her. Whether she may be blackjacked before stealing the scroll, I do not know.

Once that is done, the player should read the scroll. There's something about a servant (I think) and a yellow house mentioned in there. The house can be found near the southwest corner of the map. Once there, one should walk around a bit, since the scroll said the servant should live near the yellow house. Indeed, he shall be leaving from a house the player reaches by going through some arch near the yellow house.

This man should not be knocked out, and better not even be alerted. He might not react when the player just passes by, but attacking him might stop him from doing what he set out to: Drop a gas mine near the three guards in the opera entrance. So, let him be on his way. If he has fallen victim to the blackjack already, one has to do what the man wanted to do: Get a gas arrow or gas mine (perhaps the servant has one) and use it to put the three guards in the opera house entrance to sleep. If that is not possible, the player has to restart the mission or load a savegame from before knocking this man out.

When the guards have been gassed (and sometimes even the servant himself, but that does not matter), the entrance is open, and the player may step in and proceed with the mission.

The warehouse can be left alone until later on. The opera house comes first.
