I am happy to Annonce my new quest mod. Smaller that others, yet it may still offer something to those that already know Athkatla too much!
ATHKATLAN GROUNDS: BRIDGE'S BLOCK
INTRODUCTION:
Bridge's Block is a small quest mod from the Athkatlan Grounds quest mod series, which adds new areas and quests to Shadow of Amn's main city location. This project adds two interior areas inside the great wall that's part of the Bridge District. From now on, you may enter that massive block and see what's inside. There you'll be able to meet new characters and see what they're up to. You'll also be able to take a new job - an investigation, as the Block's caretaker believes she saw a strange monster roaming the halls. Is that true, or was it only a figment of her imagination?
The mod adds 4 new quests, 2 new medium-sized areas, and a few new items and spells.
INSTALLATION AND COMPATIBILITY:
As with any other WeiDU mod: unzip the archive into your Baldur's Gate 2: Enhanced Edition directory and run Setup-BridgesBlock.exe. Note that this mod requires an up-to-date EE version of the game. With time, this mod will become available to those who use the old version of Baldur's Gate 2.

I forgot to mention that this is part of the Weasel Mod' Winter Releases 2021
The new tomes were well-balanced.
I loved that Hommet's custom spells are now available in BG2.
I especially liked the connection to the World of Greyhawk!
(In my pen-and-paper games I use Greyhawk and have been a fan of that setting for decades.)
I am still on an older version of BG2:ee (iOS), so I will have to wait a bit to try it. But can anybody share what tomes you will find? The suspense is killing me
I've got a problem with one sub quets
THANK YOUUU))))
This mod is not on the EET Mod Compatibility List (https://k4thos.github.io/EET-Compatibility-List/EET-Compatibility-List.html), and also it has no EET tag on your website.
Does it mean that I really shouldn't install it as part of a big EET install (with Project Infinity)? Or can I try to make it work?
EDIT : I'm also curious about your Faldorn mod, which is not on the list. Thanks for all the great mods btw. I've loved the ones that I've tried so far.
Bridge's Block may actually work because I don't think there is anything in there that would special adjustments for EET. The new area is not added to the worldmap, so no problem with X Y coordinates, I don't think there are any chapter checks, and there are no NPCs in the mod, so no additional stuff is needed on that front... I guess you may give it a try and let me know if you feel like you want to test it. Once I know it works fine with EET, I will add the tag on my website
As for Faldorn: nope, she is not compatible with EET, there are few things I need to check with her and once I'm done with the checking, she will surely need some adjustments to work on EET.
Thanks for the info!
Big fan of your work. I've just played through all your 'Athkatlan Grounds' quests and 'Skie: The Cost of One Girl's Soul', they were incredibly well written with great exploration and overall of a quality I've never encountered before for community mods. I'm really looking forward to 'Eilistraee's Song' when I make it to chapter 6.
One thing that's driving me insane however is I can't find the 'moboogold apple' for 'Mr. Rat in the Bridge Block'. It's my last quest and I've searched everywhere I can find, and google has shown me nothing.
Any help from you or anyone else who's finished this quest would be great
Can't say the same about Athkatla grounds i'm afraid. For the most part those mods felt too much, like forced in a pretty busy city anyway. Too many overpowered items on top of that. Had to delete those mods because they broke the immersion for me.
I stick to the assassinations mod and back to brynlaw, my favourite two quest mods.
Really enjoying the Bridge Block mod - thanks.
Noticed a small bug maybe - in Lion's room the chest at the end of his bed cannot be opened - it highlights green when you put the cursor over it but you cannot unlock it - not sure if this is a bug or just something with my installation
I finally got to meet Mr. Rat
Argh, I have to fix that chest one day. There's nothing importan in there, it will be fixed though.
And yeah, Mr Possum was actually taking about that Mr Rat, you just met his friend. Cheers!
Liking the mod. 1 question, though. Regarding the investigation quest. I've spoken with everyone that I could find and searched the dressing room and the other rooms, but I've found no sign of any apparition nor spoken with anyone who has seen anything. What did I miss?
Cheers
