I’ve just finished reading the book (which is fantastic btw - cannot recommend enough) and was interested to see how the episode held up against it. I saw the first season of Sherlock years ago so can’t remember the story - am I missing anything if I just jump in for the Hound episode?

Big to get him back and have a leader in the LB room

Baskerville is a serif typeface designed in the 1750s by John Baskerville (1706–1775) in Birmingham, England, and cut into metal by punchcutter John Handy. [...]
According to Baskerville, he developed his printing projects for seven years, releasing a prospectus advertisement for the project in 1754, before finally releasing his first book, an edition of Virgil, in 1757, which was followed by other classics. At the start of his edition of Paradise Lost, he wrote a preface explaining his ambitions.

I'm on the 2nd escalation, & it says to kill all targets with am accident. I tried killing Rebecca twice yet when I do, it tells me 'mission failed'. does anyone else get this too.
I’m making a conference poster for my English class right now. I want to use Baskerville for my body text and I’m looking for a good title font. Any suggestions?
One would wonder if PETA is going to complain about all these maps abusing doggies.

Basic Information:
5 heroes, 20 turn time limit. The time limit is not a factor here, as the map is more or less over before you even hit T15.
You'll be provided one Miss Mage to protect against three waves of Burning Hounds. You have to clear all of the hounds to win the map. Individually the hounds are not particularly strong, but rather the fixed damage mechanics that ignore immunity have to be managed.
All hounds are immune to stun, active and passive silence, anti-buff, and stat debuffs as map mechanics will trigger the debuffs instead. They also attack at 2 range with physical attacks.
Miss Mage has:
- Drainage - Removes all enemy terrain markers within 1 block. If in water, applies the [Current] terrain marker on the area of effect, which prevents most mechanics on the hounds and reduces their stats if they end their turn in the Current.
- Mysterious Potion - Removes all ignite stacks, and gives immunity to Ram and Ignite effects. Unlocks when the second wave of hounds attacks.
- Will to Live - Removes all enemy terrain markers within 1 ring, and pushes enemies hit 3 blocks to the right. Also triggers an act again. Unlocks when the last wave of hounds attacks.
The first wave of hounds has:
- 112k HP
- Will-o'-the-Wisp - If not in Current, drops a fixed damage tile that inflicts 20% HP fixed damage if enemies stop in it. If the hound stops in a tile already affected, aoes in a Blizzard size range and inflicts Ignite. Cannot be dispelled, ignores immunity.
- Shred - After actively attacking an enemy, DEF and MDEF are reduced by 15% and healing effects are reduced by 15%. Stacks. Cannot be dispelled, ignores immunity.
The second wave of hounds has:
- 85k HP
- Will-o'-the-Wisp
- Shred
- Ram - Note this does not ignore immunity.
The third and last wave of hounds has:
- 148k HP
- Will-o'-the-Wisp
- Shred
- Strike - Note this has 0 turn cd.
The hounds will only attack Miss Mage, and they ignore enemy obstruction. However, you could always block off the legal squares around Miss Mage to make them waste a turn.
The second wave will attack on turn 4, and the last wave will attack on turn 7.
Strategy Info:
Hilda trivializes the map, as she's immune to the Ram debuff. Otherwise, the dogs don't do much damage on counterattack, so it doesn't particularly matter if you're field

Because I'm bored asf
The world's greatest detective suspects you of attempted murder. Can you best him? Can you convince him to take a walk in the mist with you?
A MATTER OF CHARACTER
Why Mr. Holmes! I almost passed you by here in the mist. What brings you back to this dreadful place on the moors? A few more steps and you’d again be in the clutches of the Grimpen Mire. You escaped it once, albeit with the help of others. I fear it would not be so careless as to let you go a second time.
No, don’t leave. I’m not here to mourn my husband. He was a beast and a fool. To be swallowed in the Grimpen’s smothering muck was too kind a fate for him.
(amused)
Does my honesty shock you, Mr. Holmes? I would not have thought a man of your intellect would be so provincial. My husband conspired to murder Sir Henry. Should I not celebrate that such a heinous act was averted, that justice was done? Is the mire any different than the hangman’s noose? Slower, more torturous perhaps – the way it moves… and grips… and sucks – but the end is the same.
(breezily, confident)
Sir Henry understands me. He sees kinship in our shared victimization. Once a proper amount of time has passed – a year or so – he’ll propose to me, and I shall become the Lady of Baskerville Hall. The land and riches my husband sought by murder, I will achieve by marriage.
We’ll not stay here in Dartmoor, of course. In truth, sir, the mire terrifies me. The thick, syrupy grip of the bog. The way it turns your every attempt to escape to its own advantage. The heaving, horrid softness of it.
It is a thing to inspire nightmares.
(with bitterness)
My late husband knew my fear. He relished in it. That’s why he made his lair on an island deep in the Grimpen’s heart. That’s why he insisted I aid and accompany him… though “insisted” is such a pale word for the way he brutalized me.
It’s why I come here still, Mr. Holmes. To conquer my terror. To face that which most frightens me.
The same reason I face you now.
When did you realize the plan to murder Sir Henry was not my husband’s… but mine? Pray, be honest, sir. Your condemnation is plain in your cold looks and in the stern, formal way you address me. T’was how you treated my husband when you began to suspect him. Your every sneer is an accusation.
So, tell me, what clue did we drop unnoticed? What word whispered our falseness?
(surprised)
A matter of character?
Ah, yes. I see now. My husband was not a subtle man. He fancied himself clever when he was barely cunning

So, there is one part where Sherlock says that he was in his chair all day physically, but he was observing Baskervilles spiritually. Does he have psychic powers or something?
