The FM is very good. But was it all? No zombie fights, no killed Arbez.
But where does the seize of almost 9 mb come from? I attended some cool fights.
But good work at all.

I just finished this one on Killer. Very fine job as always!
One thing though,[SPOILER]I was hoping to facilitate an undead invasion of the fortress. With that in mind, I looked for door controls but didn't find any. I think I explored most of the structure but because I didn't blackjack any Mechanists or disable any robots (anticipating the later fight), I may have missed something. Is it possible in this mission, perhaps on a different difficulty level?[/SPOILER]

[SPOILER]The doors were supposed to lead to the outside area which got cut out of final production because of the errors. There is an small AI fight you can trigger by flipping the switch to the medlab doors, I had a bigger AI battle planned for the outdoor area but it had to be cut too.[/SPOILER]
Dont worry, barring catastrophic errors, the next one will have
some [SPOILER]SERIOUS MAYHEM[/SPOILER] :sly:

[SPOILER]There is one AI fight (see above) Arbez isnt home, you have to get to the old Hammer Citadel on the other side of the island to reach him (that will be in my next FM)[/SPOILER]

It's one of the features in the Dromed Deluxe gamesys.
apparently if you could the shield would end up floating
in mid air. As a result you have to be more strategic about where
you take someone out. A bit of a handicap, but I think
the shields look good, especially with the helmeted Mechs.

hehehe
i like the idea :cool:
since i didn't test this harder level i just wasn't sure if it was a bug
but its a cool feature just don't kill em in the light hehehhehe:ebil:

John D.
What is it with you, switches, and total mayhem? Not complaining mind you. In this mission, a taffer has this sense of impending and immediate doom-flip a switch and your work is done. I really like the notes on[SPOILER]losing a friend on patrol[/SPOILER] . Nice touch! I have another question [SPOILER]When did the mechanist invent plasma screens and a warp engine?[/SPOILER] Those have to be some custom work on your part. All in all excellent work!:thumb:
John D. on 28/1/2003 at 23:35
The custom objects are from Dromed Deluxe.:D
[SPOILER]The glowing crystal is supposed to be the results of the energy crystal research mentioned in Brawl in the Tombs, although it does resemble
something Scotty would be working on! [/SPOILER] :laff:
