The Path of the Righteous - A New Unofficial Thief 2 Expansion (In Development) - by Kommando

Hey there folks!
Now I know I'm very new to TTLG officially but this forum has solved many problems for me, I've been tinkering with Dromed for years and the Thief series are some of my favourite games of all time! So an idea came to me in the shower and I just had to do it.
Before anyone gets too excited, this is going to be just a difficult as it sounds and will not be completed in a day. But I have done a lot of the ground work so hopefully it won't be taking too long to release each part. Demo's will be released as soon as possible along with screenshots and story updates.
Here's the basic outline:
It will be set a short time after the death of Karras and it will not follow Garret, rather it will follow two brand new characters. One is a Mechanist and the other is a Hammerite, both have been trained in a similar way to Garret (this is explained at a later time). As either character, you'll be working against the opposite organisation to come out as the dominant religion in The City.
Based on which side you choose at the start, you will be treated to an entirely different campaign, unique melee weapons, custom mechanical gadgetry for the Mechanist side, custom blessed artifacts for the Hammerite side and of course... A gripping storyline.
All comments and questions are welcome and if there's anyone looking to get involved with this then feel free to post or message me with details on what you think you could add to :D

Sounds interesting, Kommando! Good luck with your project and I would be happy to beta test for you, when it gets to that point.

Thanks for the support guys I'll look forward to getting some feedback.
Hopefully the mission 1 Beta will be done in the next few weeks itllrun10s, just for a nice wee preview for everyone to enjoy :D

It kind of sounds like you're planning on public beta testing... I'd strongly discourage that. A small group of dedicated testers to iron out the bugs in private will server you much better IMHO.

It'll be more like the original demo's for Thief 2 and Shock 2, a more watered down mission to gather some interest, but cheers for the advice. I'll definitely have a proper private beta for folks I connect with during development :D

Your story sounds really promising. Can you provide us with some details regarding the amount of missions you're planning for?
