I need a good Holiday themed FM or 2 to play

I've recently heard Christine has made one (or several?) Holiday themed FMs.. think there was another or others?

While we're at it, which of Christine's other (non holiday themed) missions would you recommend I play first?

Yeah, she has some available over on Cheap Thief Missions. I haven't played them in a while so maybe it's time to dust them off. I think that one of her missions has holiday in the title so I can't remember if there are others of her's that are holiday themed. Of course there is always A Thief's Holiday by Yandros. There are a few others too and I think they are listed in the mission thread by type. I'd post the link but I'm too lazy right now.

Haha, no worries. It was Yandros' I was thinking of, now that you mention it. Thanks for the reminder. I had forgotten there was a "mission thread by type" as well. I'll go looking for it. I appreciate the help.

There's also Christmas Present by Naks and P Forth and The Night Before Christmas.

There's also A Thief's New Year for Thief Gold but I still can't get the textures to render correctly and get a bunch of solid blue textures.

Christine's winter missions are perfect for this time of year, ohh yeah she make some of the best sweets in thief universe

Thanks for those, mxleader: I'll also check out Thief's New Year by SneakyGuy101 as well, see what I can find out. I don't think I even have TG installed at the moment, but it doesn't take too long.. normally.

Definitely going to check Christine's missions out. Downloaded several tonight, soon as I can finish Rowena's Curse.. I might not ever get that done, though. Missing so much loot on Expert and I haven't patched (with that DML thing) to fix the Horn of Quintus gate bug... so little time.

Also not a holiday FM per se, but there is the demo Snowball Fight! from Yandros as well :)

If you mean "Have a nice Holiday", it's for SystemShock 2, and it's not a winter mission (http://www.southquarter.com/christine/urlaub.html) :joke:

The Lord Ashton Series has a winter mission (working since more than a year on the update, and I'm still in the 5th mission :tsktsk: )
The Night Falcon and the Curse of the Falcon has also some winter missions :)

The wintry FM Happy New Year Mr. Lambert! has a Xmas-Tree with lights in the house. BTW one of my favored FMs ever. :)
