Got this account an hour ago, and Darkloader 3 days ago.
So my question is: which FM I really HAVE to play? (atm rather human than zombie levels.)

Heist Society is a great way to start. I think its probably one of my favorite missions to recommend to folks as a doorway into fan missions :D
Check out the original post in this thread to get screenshots for it to see if it is your thing.
As far as what you HAVE to play - it will all depend on your playstyle. You mentioned you don't really want zombies - so I'll say The Seven Sisters is probably not for you - though it is fantastic.
I'd recommend Pirates Ahoy! (as always) as a starter "must" play as well. Alot of the best fan missions have some undead touches to it (Broken Triad, Night In Rocksbourg Series) so you'll have to play around to figure out what you really enjoy.
If you want to post a few missions you've enjoyed after you get your feet wet with a few missions played and under your belt already - please do and we can give you better recommendations from there.
A couple sites to find missions: thief-thecircle.com, southquarter.com and keepofmetalandgold.com in case you need them.

Also heard much about "a night in rocksbourg". Is it good?

Absolutely. The first two missions in the series (Discovery And A New Beginning) will be more up your alley if you are not a fan of the undead. They are both city based missions with one or two undead touches but not nearly as many as most missions based around zombies and undead. The Third (Ink And Dust) is.. frankly put.. scary.

Great post AndrewPhD - thanks for sharing that with us! :) A Lucrative Opportunity is a good starter FM indeed.
You are welcome SneakyJack. I am currently playing
The Three Crowns.
Lots of
ratmen, and I have read there are other nice things down there.
Best,
AndrewPhD

I loved Three Crowns. It starts off like a typical city mission. Next thing you know...it's totally not. It a very fun mission with a great variety of scenery. :thumb:

Just played it. It reminded me in some ways to Gervaisius' mansion. :p
Now playing Rocksbourg. When I looked at some screenshots, I first thought it was T3!

Amended undead count!!!

[spoiler]Two ghosts, two hammer haunts (I did trigger them just to see what would happen I admit), two skeletons, two hammer haunt archers, three zombies and a ghost mechanist. The last one doest really count but if we're getting technical there you go! :laff: Thats 12 in my world![/spoiler]
OK I'm now going to add
a 3rd skeleton, the wandering female zombie (you must have worked hard to get her to follow you though) and another inactive zombie in the same area to the list. :D So that's a new total of 14? I think? Quote Posted by pavlovscat
I think there's a switch under one of the cups?
Well I know I made a right mess of Podroz but I really, really can't see or blind frob a switch on that shelf. Must be descending into the realms of insanity again. :)

Although I did have a good laugh at how absurd this goal of ours to figure out how many undead were in the mission has become. :laff:

I'm currently helping test the new mission from Kfort, "Wicked Relics" - and it is (thus far) quite a treat.
It is a large mansion style mission with gameplay that is fantastic - so everyone should grab this one when it is released!
Edit: Didn't realize I had double posted with this one and I can't delete this post to edit my previous one. :(
