Remember that this mission, and by extension every mission made for the contest, is for
THIEF 2. As such, do not load it with Thief 1/GOLD! It is highly recommended you do not use the Enhancement Pack and/or HD texture packs to play this mission. It is also recommended you uncheck all optional features T2Fix comes with if you update to the latest version of the full executable.

What a fabulous FM! Atmospheric, looks beautiful, plays like good old Thief ... but with some twists!
I want a house like that! Together with the underground Hammerite church! Didn't see that one coming to be honest, I thought it's gonna be one of those short and sweet FMs and I'll finish it tonight. Also, awesome Planescape:Torment reference!

Time to polish my lock picks, dust off the blackjack, pickup a few rope arrows and give the boots a good spit shine. No point in waiting. It's time to begin.

Cute mission :). Short and sweet, very cool.
Unless you find the (admittedly easy as hell to do so) Hammerite Temple stuffs. This area is like 3x the play area of everything else but optional for... Reasons, I guess? Would have been really cool to have this be the main meat of the mission and have the lore of it expanded upon. As it is, its a really cool side area and probably like 500x better than the main areas, if I'm being frank :P

I really quite liked this one, I liked the architecture of the castle. I'll always give props to people Hiding things behind bannisters, if only because when I first played through Thief those were the only secrets I could find.
I enjoyed the optional quest, especially how I just expected you to go down and get a bunch of loot then leave, and that it was likely 2/3rds of the level entirely, which is a bit of an odd choice admittedly.
This was a solid first level to play in this contest.

Mine, too. ;)
I was all about to leave this "small" mission when I thought it was done but then I realized that there must have been much more loot hidden. So as a master thief I restarted, loaded back and then finally discovered the
underworld. That was really unexpected! :eek:
Finished playing hard with
3514/3944 loot. :D
BTW did anybody else
transform the guards into rats?

I've picked up all of the glowing body parts except for the leg. IDK if it bugs out from quicksaving/quickloading, but I can't find it wandering around anywhere. If it's in a secret place, I just want a hint.
