You're welcome clearing. I do what I can.

@Gloria...first off...big hug....second...Dew Drop will be very happy to see you.;)

I can see Dewdrop, but can't for the life of me find a way to get to her. Helpful hints (or downright spoilers) welcome! I've swung & jumped & leaped til my knees are bloody and still can't get there. :( Might help if I had a prehensile tail.

Btw, Sly; every time you release one of your FMs I think you couldn't manage to outdo your last one. Once again, you've proven me (happily) wrong. Excellent mission, Sly; I'm having the time of my life!! :thumb: Thanks so much for your hard work & efforts and to all who contributed.

But really, Garrett singing opera? Puhleeeeze!! ;)

Hey..it's one of those artistic risks that I take from time to time. I actually do sing well in real life.;)

Just teasin'! Your 'Garrett' voice can make a lot of us (who've admittedly had a crush on his character) go a tad weak in the knees. You do it so well, my dear. :cheeky:

Nowwww; about getting to Dewdrop ........ help please.

@Sticky...[spoiler]At one point that was the mission. I had a working title of "Get Your Bloody Black Blackjack Back" or some such thing. Back story about Bafford boasting to everybody about besting Garrett and having a cocktail party to show off his new trophy. Garrett being laughed out of The Crippled Burrick and not allowed back until he redeemed himself.

But at some point I felt Garrett wouldn't give a crap about what Bafford said or how his snooty noble friends felt. Plus the get your blackjack back thing had been done before. So Bafford can keep is fasle trophy along with all the others.;) [/spoiler]

I see your point - [SPOILER]at first I was peeved that a nit-wit like Bafford was getting away with this ridiculous claim. Then again, if his snooty (& therefore rich) pals are stupid enough to believe it, they may be somewhat more lax with their own security :D And find out, in due course, that Garrett's still got his BJ :ebil: [/SPOILER]
Should have said before - those trophy-room plaques were a blast :thumb:

Just finished, 2456/2991 potential loot. I never made it into the guard towers, I saw no way to get into them on expert difficulty (which I cannot believe I played, I love my blackjack and going without it means I'll be playing this again on a lower difficulty), is there loot in the towers? If so, any advice on getting in? I'm not a very good ghoster.

I did find the secret room, and the secret area within the room. Also, I found the wine cabinet, but never found the way into it. I did find Benny's pilfered bottle, though.

I also saw Dewdrop, and wasn't able to get to her either. I tried speed potions, safefall potions, both at once, and every manner of tricky jumping and strafing and leaping and twisting I could imagine, and my only reward was to go splat, a lot. I'm a klutz, though, so I'm accustomed to going splat! Hah :)

Thank you, SlyFoxx, for this fun, funny, and beautiful little mission!

Shaz : [SPOILER]there can't be much, if any - I fell 85 short & didn't have enough water arrows to even try the towers. Pity you can't use your sword on the wine cabinet (on Expert)? No idea where that key is...[/SPOILER]
