Thief 2X -07- Down Among Dead Men
It seems like the Hammerites could be able to help out with the smuggler problem, but the question now is how to best entice them into action.
Apparently they've sent an expedition to retrieve a powerful artefact, the Orb of St. Basmus, from some haunted catacombs to aid them in their war against the Mechanists, but the expedition was lost and never heard of again.

There's a new type of arrow, the flare arrow, and one way to use it is as a lightsource in the absence of Thief 2's flare item, but that's a pretty terrible waste of valuable (to some) arrows to light up a single spot. Their main use is actually forcing undead enemies to flee in terror. When shot near undead, the enemy will look like they're getting hit by flashbombs and then run a good distance away, very fast, even if they're in the middle of combat.

I'm really saddened that my original recording of this mission was corrupted (again!) because in that one I actually made a couple of little mistakes and 'had' to use the flare arrows for real. It was more fun and funny than this playthrough, but alas, some things just aren't meant to be. Like good videos.
Another new item introduced in this level is the spider egg. It works like the frogbeast egg in Thief 2, except it releases a spider that shoots magic projectiles at enemies for about half a minute before disappearing unless killed. Problem is that any damage the spider deals is counted as the player dealing damage and I'm sort of casually going for 0 damage playthrough because there are so few reasons to deal/take damage and so many w..
