Nice! I think I've heard of The Night Watch before. What is it about?
It is a 4-mission campaign, mostly happening in a mountain mansion, but you later visit many other places. Here is the link to the story and first mission thread:

The puzzles tend to be quite challenging, but if you play the first two difficulty levels, all important information on what to focus is automatically stored in your diary as you progress, while in the last difficulty level it is not the case. Different and interesting enemies, big mansion, fantastic skyline, elements of magic, scripted sequences, variety of places, skillful opportunities, especially climbing and much more... and in the 1st mission you actually play as undercover. Not the mission pack for one evening, but for more patient ones. :) When you finish it, you will need to take a break, because it goes through all your body cells, from brain to legs. :)

Holy... crap. Well, it looks like The Night Watch is going to be next on my list. I'm especially intrigued by the 'different enemies' part.
Thanks!

Feeling nostalgic lately, and now that thiefmissions is back up, have been browsing there. Playing Embracing the Enemy by Kung Fu Gecko. It has great gameplay, and looks pretty good too, especially considering this one was released in 2000.
@H3H3, you will love Night Watch - has a unique atmospheric feel and gameplay.
And I second (or third?) the motion that a new crap contest is in order :cheeky:

I recently played the C4 missions. Then I played The Gift and ran around for hours looking for the last 25 of loot without remembering that I posted about that last 25 not being obtainable. :o I also played another one of Cardia's missions Melancholy in Porto. Now I'm playing Tarnhill.
Oh I played Yandros' A Thief's Holiday about three weeks ago.

What Brethren said ! I love replaying the crap contest FMs from time to time. I usually have a little vodka cocktail first and then laugh my head off.
Otherwise, I've been trying to catch up on TG FMs. In another thread someone suggested a whole bunch of them. I completed about 3/4 of the list.
I'm now thinking of playing King's Story with an attempted ghost. It's been a few years since I've played it.

For me, it's Broken Triad. Excellent level design, great visuals... and the story. Woah. :wot:
I should've seen the twist coming after playing OB
Wow, Ethan! Great heist, keep it up, proud of you!

Ranstall Keep, one of the first missions I ever played. Damn shame there was never a sequel.

After some break, I decided for the first time to replay a FM. Note that I still haven't played many missions, because I am saving them for the later time (e.g. still haven't played the likes of Broken Triad, King Story, the majority of 2015 and 2016 missions and many more, even some much much older).
So I went for the Trickster Gem mine campaign and I have just finished Making Tracks which I consider one of the best if not the best single FM I have ever played. It is funny, because to replay the FM, there must be some specific circumstances - the time of year must be the same as it was when I first played it. I gave TTGM a debut in January 2014 and gave it a replay exactly 3 years later. When I revisited some places I remember also what other things I had been doing back in 2014. Even what I ate. :D

That's funny. I like that mission also. I don't think my memory is good enough to remember what I ate 3 years ago, though.
