If you like undead missions, you've got to give this one a try. I've played the beta version and started the final and it's lots of fun!

I just finished it on Deadly and had a blast. I lucked out because I happen to kill one of the fly infested Zombies in the middle of a walkway. The Zombie blew up but the flies stayed. Many of the Hammers where caught there while I hid in a grave near by. I watched them go down and didn't lift a finger. This one is one I definitely want to play again. Great job Tomi. <img src="graemlins/thumb.gif" border="0" alt="[Thumbs Up!]" />

Hey, thanks for your comments! <img src="smile.gif" border="0"> It's a great feeling when someone plays your mission and really likes it! <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0"> <br />And thanks for advertising my FM, Nightwalker! <img src="graemlins/joker.gif" border="0" alt="[Joke]" /> <br />Anyway, I think that it's not just an undead mission... at least it's not an ordinary undead mission. Yeah, there are some zombies in my FM but not too many... so you who hate undead missions should also try this one. <img src="smile.gif" border="0"> <br />Yeah, you're right. Maybe I'm saying this only because I'm talking about my own FM!! <img src="graemlins/joker.gif" border="0" alt="[Joke]" />

Oh, I didn't know that the flies could be so lethal! <img src="smile.gif" border="0"> Well I guess that I have to fix it and release a new version. Actually one of my betatesters once told me about that bug, but I thought that he/she was talking about something else... btw was it you Nightwalker?? <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0">
One thing that worries me is the difficulty level in my FM. Is it too easy or too hard or what? Please tell me what you think. <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

I don't think you can fix the flies and I hope you don't. Sometimes it's fun when the baddies get killed by other baddies. It was an isolated incident because you would have to try to kill this particular zombie at that particular spot or it won't work. Propably couldn't do it again if I wanted to. I was trying to get the zombies to fight with the Hammers but it wouldn't work in your FM. Sometimes it helps when you can turn them against each other. I did have a tough time killing the archer at the top of the stairs on my way to the tower. One thing that did happen you may need to fix is that after I got the orb I ran back outside, to get away from the main character Garrett is supposed to kill, and he followed and was killed by the flies. It wouldn't click off the objective because I hadn't killed him myself. I started at my last save and did it right. Had a lot of fun leading these Hammers to the flies and hope I can do it again. Do Not Like Hammers!!! Oh BTW can you get into the locked <br />cemetery. I couldn't and wondered if it is accessible. <img src="graemlins/thumb.gif" border="0" alt="[Thumbs Up!]" />

Hawklette, I asked that same question about the cemetary during testing and was told it was not accessible.
I was the one who found the trick with the flies during the beta, Tomi. I thought it was hillarious and I certainly wouldn't bother trying to change it.
For an Expert thief, even on the hardest setting, it isn't very difficult, but that's not always a bad thing. I'm just playing the final version and, though I'm not finding it terribly challenging, it certainly isn't too easy and I'm having fun! It would be an excellent mission, too, to introduce some people who are afraid of undead to them, because you're right, it's not entirely undead and the ones you do meet are manageable.
So, Congratulations on releasing a fine mission! <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

There are some places where you can't go in my FM...<br /><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, sans-serif">Spoiler:</font><div style="background-color:#000080"><font color="#202080">...and the cemetery is one of these places... sorry!</font></div></blockquote>
