Dafydd -
Hint: The drillbit is in the attic over the coach house. Search the coach house for a lever that will open a secret passage.
Spoiler: Look at the torch to the left of the bed in the coach house.

Hint: There is a note in the research office that will give you a clue.
Spoiler: Look at the floor in the research office and the dining hall. The pattern on the floors is the same as the pattern for the rods to open the door. They must alternate, in - out - in etc.
Iceblade - There are 5 secrets. From your list it looks like you are missing one secret passage in the main building.

Tannar, et al -- Aha, there are two different attics! That's what was confusing me... when folks talked about "the attic," I thought they meant the one reached from the wand room.
Thanks, that did it: Found the drill bit (nowhere near where the note in the dining hall suggested), the last secret, and that was enough to finish.

What skull?:confused: What red star? :confused:
I'm in the catacombs and I have the evil skull as well as the 3 unholly gifts but I cannot see a way to the tombs. Lady Rowena spoke of "killing" the evil head. How would I do that?

room behind one of the coffins but there was nothing in there that I could see and there's nothing in any of the numerous readables I'm carrying that mention how I might deal with the evil skull. I'm usually good at figuring Thief puzzles but I think I need clearer hints here :nono:

Are you sure you are in the right room?
There is a small bare room behind one of the coffins. Is that the one you are in? If so, look closely at the back wall of this room.

Yes, that can be easily missed. I know I missed it when I was there at the first time.

I'm in act 2, and having difficulty getting past the aquaduct. the arrows on the map show going to the southern tower, but I can't get in or use it to get over the fence... and the ledge by the ladders is too narrow to mantle onto.
help? :sweat:

I'm not really certain where you are but have you been into the room near the aqueduct with the loot on the floor under the table? If so, you can pass through that room, go alongside the aqueduct, then through the aqueduct to the other side. From there you should be able to get to the fortress with no problem and continue the mission from there. If the gate to that room is closed you can open it by turning a valve down at street level.
