Thanks :)
Since I really liked it I will play all difficulties :)

I've just started this mission for the first time yesterday. I'm still somewhere in the guard house, frobbing locked doors alot. I hope I find some keys soon, because it's getting boring to run around all those corridors without anything to do. I've started it on Expert (I do it all the time with new missions nowadays... must be getting good at it) and some of the bluecoats on the streets... irritate me. And there isn't even a zombie or haunt to let lose in the streets either (if there is, I haven't found it yet). Ghosting past the police gets boring rather fast for me :erg:

Hi zapman,
You mean to say you're actually "running" down halls and around the guard house?!!! Are you playing expert? Man, you must be good. :-) :eek:

zapman, to find the keys you need to [SPOILER]go into the jail, up the stairs and into the cell with the chest in it. That springs a trap, which locks you in. Pick open the window, drop down onto the ledge and follow it to the far end. Jump over to the balcony and in that room, you'll find the keys you need to continue with the mission. [/SPOILER]

Thanks, but I already found those keys. I've just about cleared the guardhouse, even found a zombie. To bad it's not going anywhere, I would've liked to let him indulge in some cops, but alas. I've returned the poor captain to the starting house (how many times do you have to sneak past those cops there, this was my fourth time I think), but now I'm in doubt as to who is the captain of the guard. I don't want to make that whole trip again with the wrong guy on my back ;)
And running through the guardhouse becomes really easy once you find out that [SPOILER]you can blackjack all of the guards except the ones dressed in blue[/SPOILER], which makes life inside the tile ridden building a lot easier.
After that all you have to deal with is [SPOILER]one of those stupid golden children[/SPOILER] which I've become to hate by now.
And I'm embarrassed to say I can't find my way into the evidence room :erm:
But a great mission overall :cheeky:
Nightwalker on 26/9/2002 at 18:38
The captain of the guard is the guy in the balcony room, where you found the keys.
To get into the evidence room, [SPOILER]go back into the room with all the skulls around the doorway, into the secret tunnel, up the ladder and turn around! You'll see where to go from there.[/SPOILER] It's funny, because it's really in plain site, but most people miss it.
Zapman on 26/9/2002 at 20:58
I never look around in secret tunnels, there's never a second branch. Well, this is the first time I've seen it. Must be getting sloppy.
I'm glad to say I've found a solution to the police problem. Thirteen poor sods have drowned themselves in waist-high water so far :laff:
StephenD on 27/9/2002 at 05:01
zapman, you mean that I could have...
[SPOILER]conked all the guards except the ones in blue?!!!!! OMG! thats just......thats just......oh!!![/SPOILER]
so,......I suppose ghosting this mission is just this side of impossible then? Has anyone ever ghosted this mission, I wonder? If so, I'd like to know how they did it. There's so much marble/tile flooring, and the guards are sooooo sensitive to noise in this mission too! I was beginning to think that my sneak/creep key didn't work! So I wonder why the blue boys have immunity? Interesting twist.
SD :-) :wot:

Sorry to break the news to you, but the objectives state that you "can't blackjack or kill the police (blue coats)". So I tried to knock out the first guard that wasn't dressed in blue, and it worked ;)
I've now drowned the entire police force, except one. Anyone have a clue how to drown an archer that doesn't run up to you like swordsmen? I'm a bit stuck :confused:
Goldie81 on 27/9/2002 at 10:43
You've drowned almost all police officers? As in blue cotes?
How can you do that on expert? I've tried but if I drown someone I kill them, and you can't kill police on expert. Is it a bug?
