Thanks Downwinder! :)
I'm planning to build other FMs. So let's hope, I'll have the time for it (and finish it before 2030) :cheeky:
And congrats on mission completed, over 5k loot is a nice job! :)
The thieves aren't actually downwinders, rather a smaller rival group. And for Dewdrop(s), the other two are unfrobbable, because those kids need their dolls more than Garrett does. :)
Presuming, you're playing on expert, the fourth fire arrow is on the balcony with the ladies you just mentioned: look under the table.

Congratulations on your first mission. I look forward to sneaking some time to play.

Congratulations Taylor on your first FM - fills me with joy to see new authors having a good crack at the Dromed beast. I shall download and get my sneaking shoes on. Thank you :thumb:

That's a really nice mission, but I have no clue where treasure is located.
Edit: Nevermind, I read downwinder's post more carefully and I figured it out. Mission finished in over 3 hours, got 5048 loot and 13 secrets. I also scored 64 picked locks (!), that's a lot. Mission was fun to play, I like design, different apartments look unique. Map wasn't helpful though. I tried to locate myself on the map when I was on street, but I never could do it. City's layout is different than what map shows. Captain's treasure is located in random place. On the other hand I liked that you can access many places from different routes. I also liked humor with 2 ladies balcony. Though I think this joke with everyone losing their keys is a bit overused. I also had really unfortunate accident with long picklock crate. I spent 2 min to unlock it, found key for it, used it on lock, so crate got locked and key vanished and in the end I saved game. Sigh, I was forced to spend another 2 min opening this crate to grab loot from it. Pretty fun mission. Thanks for making.
Edit 2: One more question: Is there any key for Boathouse? Or am I suppose to use force to open it?

Amazing city mission, just perfect for Christmas days.
Many thanks and keep up your work!

Thanks for the review. Please put a spoiler on your loot / secret result just in case, thank you!
The map shows some streets outside the actual mission, use the sewer route as a standard, as the marked sewers cover the area available as well as mark the places where there's something outside the severs.
For that crate I tried to make it obvious that it's meant to be opened with the key. Sorry it didn't work out for you.

Due to many reasons I rarely post my opinions of Thief missions here, but in this case I'll make an exception:
@Taylor You have outdone yourself, and that on your first FM! There's a lot to see and do here. It's not without fault, but those faults can easily be attributed to a beginner making his first steps... well, as far as people are willing to buy that one for a dollar. ;)
And I thank you for the Christmas present you brought to all of us! It shall keep us warm during the holidays!
