Hello,
I remember a nice stunt in TMA while trying to get into Garrett's (guarded) house. Things went quite poor, so I was soon chased by guards, even before I made a single step inside Garrett's house. I tried to escape by running around the building, the sword-swinging guard on my heels. Reaching the backside of the house, another guard just came round the corner...uh-oh an archer! I pulled out a rope arrow while running, put it to the bow, still running as fast as possible (not very fast while aiming as you all know), pulled the string only half the way, because I had to be faster than the guard-archer and the swordsman came really close...aimed for the wooden plank of the balcony, which was 2nd-floor on the backside of the building...the arrow hit, the rope came down. I jumped onto it and made my way upwards...half a second later I heard a sword swinging through the air, right were I was just before...another moment later the guard with the sword was hit by the arrow of his guard friend, while Garrett reached the balcony safe and unhurt. Hehehe, this was fun. I never managed this again.

...another one...
TDP - Bonehoard (my favourite Level of the whole series)
Destroyed all undead by using the traps, saved most of my fire arrows and holy water. Then I collected all zombie heads and some skulls and brought them to one place. There I stacked all the heads! I had a "tower" of more than 20 heads! It was a lot of work, but it is possible! The "tower" was bent a lot, but it held (the Pisa-tower of bonehoard). After that, I shot one head after another down with broadheads...afterwards - after reloading - I scattered the heads with a fire-arrow. What a chaos of flying corpse-heads! The "landing-sounds" were quite disturbing... :eww:

One of the funnest thing i tried was during a FM, i forget the name. But i was pretty much though the mission i was out of moss, gaz and water arrows and had just a couple of objectives left involving getting into the Master's room, unfortunately i couldn't get past the 8 guards left without them being aleted by the tile floor.
So i ran back to the basment and freed a zombie and made him follow me all the way back to the main house which took a good 20 min, mostly cuz undeads freak me out. After finding a safe hiding place i threw a plate towards the stairs and watched the zombie pick a fight with first 1 them 2 and eventually all the remaining guards ganging up on him. it took them about 2 second to kill it, but it regenrated itself every time.
With no guards payng any attention to me i proceded to unlovking the bedroom door and getting the last objective. I wish i would of saved a pic of that cuz it was hilarious seeing a bunch of guard in a circle just hacking away at the poor dead bastard.

Similar to the eternal struggle between the zombies and statue in the graveyard in TDS
