one last thought for now: how were the Purples in the bell tower
supposed to get down? there's only one
slow fall potion for the two of them! :eek:
One rides piggyback on the other.
"Slowfall potions do not work that way! Good night!"

I have a question......what was the thinking behind....I am able to be beaten to death without a care...by any colour team member...And they can also kill each other...... yet I can do no more than knock out or gas/mine to render an opponent unconcious...Why are there obviously two sets of rules for the teams....
This is the only prob I have with the games logic....and one I have diffuculty,in seeing the point.
Please enlighten this taffer.

Well I've completed it, and you guys certainly did a good job bringing this juggernaut to term, it really came out great and I'm glad to see most of the script stuff I did back in 2003 survived into the final product, kudos all around.

We thought about trying to make it appear that the AI are only subduing you, ie rendering you unconscious, when they pummel you with their swords. After all, if they kill you it's breaking the rules and they'll be punished. But aside from trying to prevent bloodstains from showing, we weren't really sure how best to convey that.

I believe it was Redface who pointed out that they use wooden swords? I suppose they just beat the crap out of each other, not actually kill them...
hey, I found the ice bombs once, but immediately died and never found them again. where are they hidden? also, any more hints about (

Ahh...so I am only hammered unconsious...hehe...and when the bow/crossbow opponent is firing loads of bolts into me they are eventually making me unconsious...I see.
With the lack of Kill option...I have been very frustrated at times which resulted in many "I'll show you" attacks to satisfy my bloodthirsty steak....even if they do all end in a "Game over" screen....my bad...but it felt great..

I curious to know if anyone besides the beta testers has ghosted this mission. :)

pretty sure they all shoot gas arrows, so yes? nm, only the Silvers have gas arrows, the rest are broadheads.
perhaps those should have had large boxing gloves on the tips so we would know they weren't lethal? ;)

Oh no..then does it mean I won't get punished when i let practically every hammer go unconcious underwater? I mean, I didn't touch them...well I DID touch the wrong end of their sword anyways.
