Very near the start, there is a guard in a small tower. You can mantle onto an area that gives you access to a grill behind him, and from there you can see there is also a lever inside. But I cannot open that grill. Does anyone know how you get in there (on Expert)?

Keep going and you'll find the key to get in there.

I've done all the objectives, I'm just re-exploring things I missed! Actually, just after posting, I managed to mantle in that tower from the open side. All the lever does is open a gate you can mantle over anyway. But I'm still intrigued to know where the key is!

Thanks Downwinder - worked my way back to start - then found Nigel's house.
Never did find the sceptre though. Next time I will look for it (any hints anyone?).
I think that you have only completed the first bit of this FM...it is huge,and I just wanted to check you have seen the Hammerite cathedral?...if you havent then...
When you have opened the upper gate,with the key from the top guard post...where an archer is patrolling...go through that gate and jump over the balcony down into the water,...you have a lot more to do yet to get at the Sceptre!I must just say that this is an exceptional FM,and I have thoroughly enjoyed it...just when you think you are near the end another area opens up.....
I loves the fight between the blues and yellows (Craymen) and the red spidy,lol,lol,I didnt have to do a thingVery well done!!

Marbrien, I think you missed an entire section of the mission or you should have found the key. I never thought to try mantling over that gate during testing! You need to go through to Nigel's house, get the cave door key from inside then go through the first set of caves that is through the metal door near Nigel's. At the very end, there's a room where you'll find the key to the Guard Tower and get a new objective to get inside.

I entered opened the small cave door but then entered the caves from the other side, but dropping in the water after all the roof climbing. I thought the two sides of the caves would probably join up - they don't!

BBB, what a fun mission. Thinking I messed up my chances of finding the scepter after going way too far from my objective, I doubled back and it was actually very cool doing that.
The flow of the mission was great.

OK, I´ve made ok this far, but now I´m stuck: I´m in a cave with two ratmen patrolling and two standing by the fire. Is the only way to proceed a jump across the lava pool? I can´t make it, have tried tens of times.

Has anyone found a way to
steal the holy hammers on the altar without alerting the Hammers? I couldn't find any moss arrows, and I've been racking my brain for the past half hour on this...

There should be a spot where you can
jump and make it to the other side. If it's the same area I'm thinking of, it took me 3 times (each time almost getting on the ledge), then I took a long enough jump and made it.
