I bet a lot of people shy away from the Japanese fan missions because they can't understand the objectives, but those people are really missing out on good stuff. For instance, this new Makiko fm by jis is fun. I figured out what the player is supposed to do - kill some unarmed lady. Sounds evil? Easy? An ordinary task? No way! The mission gives you plenty of weapons (by the hundreds), but the guards are nearly immortal. I estimate that it takes about 200 frogbeast explosions to kill one guard. You do not have any weapons to KO oppenents, just weapons of destruction. This was a really odd challenge, since it breaks you away from the traditional Lytha challenge. It was a load of fun though.

So what you are saying is that the mission isn't ghostable? Hmmmmm...challenging, eh?
How about a link to the download?

Ok, Xious. I took your advice and played this one. I have laughed my butt off.
I stayed in the shadows at the beginning and threw a frog beast egg. I got the attention of 4 people and contined the throw eggs one at a time until 200 eggs later 3 of them dropped. Everytime a frog exploded thay would all yell in unison. It sounded like I was at some strange sporting event. Thanks for bringing this one to our attention. I haven't laughed that hard in a while.
I have some great screenshots of glitches that occured. I managed to get the "lady" on the central tower to fall off and eventually end up on the lowest level with full run of the palce AND ME! I also got one of the archers off his tower, then he would fire arrows at the frog beasts and explode them in his face. No accounting for brains, aye?

Yeah, this is another one of those weird unique little missions. I think it would have been better with a few hundred explosive devices, though. :ebil:

Strange little mission this is indeed. Haven't quite figured out a good strategy yet. I wonder if there is a good spot to run to where I can leisurely attack everyone? After reading the first post here I at least know what to do now!

Hmm no wonder they are tough to kill. She has 5000 hitpoints and the rest I checked have about half.

fyi, the English translation of this FM's objective is (
http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1155681#post1155681) here:
Makiko
Objectives:
(1) Auntie Makiko is in the central tower. Make sure her soul rests in peace.
[this is roughly the literal translation, with the same ambiguity as to whether she's evil and you're supposed to kill her, or she's actually a really nice, dead lady whose soul you want to rest in peace. My bet would be the former.]

That would just be hilarious if JIS were super-cheeky by saying "make sure her soul rests in peace", as in, "Soldier... Engage the enemy over there... Make sure he has the best funeral money can buy, God rest his soul!" .. Err, not sure that came off right, but I'll just laugh by myself if that's the case :laff:.
Now I've gotta download this...
