  Ok I checked this game out by online reviews. Looks like a good one. By 
all the Thief inspirations in it were there some original Thief creators 
involved in the making of it? As for new Thief fan missions, have you tried 
the Bathory one? It's pretty good but the ending was too brief. Best 
missions were the ones by Christine and Andrea Allotti and Istan Varga.
