NOTES: -UPDATED VERSION AT https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xb0NRoFYZSZngYTO3dO5H_Q7...
-Fixed Utilities door, minor patrol error, minor texture issue in streets, filenames fixed by Cardia
-Avoid using high-poly model mods, they will cause a texture error with at least 1 NPC. TY Ashfield

- The drunkard and the bartender are non-hostile unless you decide to hit them for some reason.
- This is my first level, so I made it in 64x64x64 to keep myself from getting too ambitious and getting stuck. However, there's still a couple routes for a more enterprising thief, so keep your eyes peeled.
- I'd expect most players to complete this in 10-25 minutes.
- I designed this around Expert, and recommend playing it on that difficulty.
- There is an inevitable level 2 (searching with sword up) alert, but that one NPC is isolated to one room and can't tell his buddies, and he is alerted by you leaving the room. Is not a ghost bust for you masochists who do Supreme Ghost.

Briefing

They want me to break into one of Tol Camrick and Sons' smaller foundries down in the Old Quarter, and steal the formula for their plate alloy. If it were a chemist daring enough to rob a bank or break someone out of Cragscleft, they would've stolen it already, so if I were a gambling man I'd say my client is some taffer from the Shemenov company.

The 550 coins they're offering up ought to cover my rent for the next month, but I'll need some more if I want to eat more than shoe leather. Nearby Hammerite church was sold and moved out of recently, but they still maintain a small compound in the utilities and sewer lines underneath this neighborhood. There's a taphouse I should also hit along the way, since the wine market is always reliable. Lastly, I should remember that Tol Camrick isn't the dumbest company around. I should scope the place out and do some research before I go in.

Enjoyable debut mission

This debut FM is quite short but it absolutely succeeded in creating a good T1/TG atmosphere. There isn't anything redundant in the mission and maybe that's one of the reasons that make it so similar to OMs. Good job and I'm definitely looking forward author's new FMs!

Pretty amazed how much gameplay fun and storytelling you can put into a tiny mission like this one. Thief fan mission builders, I salute you.

It's not overburdened with details, it feels just right

Fantastic bit-sized debut

Wisely simple, well designed and fun.
This mission doesn't try to change the world and the author has admittedly kept the scope low for their debut - which I'm really glad for! I really hope the author will have the chance to create other maps, and perhaps experiment a bit more with different themes. Either way, I've enjoyed this one quite a lot!
