Anyone else get a kick out of drowning adversaries? Favorite places for tempting them to their deaths:
Bafford's--Run laps around the pool, frequently changing directions, and guards will fall in.
Cragscleft--Easy to get Hammerites to chase you into the water and through the tunnels connecting the pools.
Haunted Cathedral--occasionally a burrick will fall into the water near the Grotto of the Keepers.
Strange Bedfellows--Ratmen will chase you into the water near the window where you have to bring the High Priest.
Shipping and Receiving--If you run up onto the upper deck railing on Davidson's ship, guards and Davidson's men will follow and eventually fall in. Sometimes they fall to the ledge lower down on the side of the ship, but they'll still shuffle backwards until they eventually fall in.
Any other good places?

I've never tried, but the thought occurs that those spiders around the waterfall at the beginning of the Lost City could be tricked into jumping in...

Persuading guards to jump into pools/rivers/seas is even more fun that blackjacking. Lots of FMs let you tempt sewer spiders to try swimming. Congratualations on drowning a burrick - I've never managed that one.

It is also a good way of getting rid of zombies:cheeky:

I remember I had been chased by zombies, my first time in the Bonehoard, and I was just trying to get my bearings. I hadn't learned many of the tricks, yet, so I was pretty tense. I was down the broken stairs, bobbing in the water underneath the cracked floor with a zombie above. It fell into the water and I swam away from it. It exploded, and my first thought after that revelation, was how disgusting the water would be if this was real.:eww:

The map for Ambush and Courier is good for getting guards drowned. And zombies too :)

Forgot about Ambush/Courier. That area in front of the gate that has some steps leading down to the water is a good drowning zone. Hiding in the tunnel after guards have been lured onto the steps then popping out from time to time to keep them in search mode works well there. Think I've used noisemaker arrows to good effect there, too.

lol, I like finding the hidden 'cracks' in the game world and making my unsuspecting victims either fall into water, or fall straight thru the world.
Still, i think TDS was awesome for drowning your opponents, or at least very, very fun. Hoard a ton of cash, buy some oil flasks, fire arrows, and noisemakers. Then, throw a volley of flasks near the start of the pier in the Docks, then a second volley a few feet infront of the first one. Then, fire off a noisemaker infront of the happy lil puddles and wait for someone to go and slip on the first row, theyll fall down on the ground right before the second row. Just a fraction of a second after they get up, fire a fire arrow onto the first row and set the oil on fire, thisll scare the shit out of em and theyll most likely run into the next line of oil, making them slip right off tha pier. Looks really cool if you nail it just right.

I pushed a puppet through the world with a book, once.

Have you tried to push Lauryl out of the Cadle? I tried, but succeeded only to the lower end of the staircase to the attic.
