After returning from her mission in Europe with the Black Diamond, Marcia L Croft, decided to request a meeting
with those who hired her to retrieve this, and the Star of David.  She was curious to know what exactly they
were planning to do with these 2 artefacts.  The meeting took place at Koscil Manstov, Karlostov, in Poland.  Marcia arrived a couple of minutes early, and saw a black cab arrive and a gentleman step out onto the pavement.
He motioned for her to enter the church.  Upon sitting rather uncomfortably on a pew, he began to speak.
"Marcia, it's always a pleasure to see you", Marcia replied "Lets get down to business".  
"Right.  There's a global conspiracy by some very sinister and very powerful people.  They believe themselves 
to be vastly superior to all, and refer to their organisation as 'Le Bureau d'Acuity', and we believe them to operate from somewhere in Central France, hence the name.  
According to our intelligence, they have been training up special agents.  These individuals are brainwashed and used to assasinate certain high ranking targets.  Their latest recruit goes by the codename of 'Agent 40'.  I need you to track them down and stop them before they reach their target."
"Marcia replied, all sounds a bit far fetched to be honest".  He said "Please trust me, this is something we do know".
"He went on, we required the powerful artefacts you have retrieved for us to defeat these evil forces".
Just then, a loud bang was heard near the entrance to the building, and maybe half a dozen mercanaries stormed the building.
Marcia looked up to the roof, and thought of a way out...

Helpful Notes
.............

1. You may need to change the resolution in the 'The_Iron_Cross' exe if you can not see the inventory too well.  Just keep ctrl key down and double click on the exe.  I chose to name the file differently to the usual Tomb4 in the hope that it does not interfere with settings for your existing TR levels.
2. If you push a pushable block off a ledge and the collision has disappeared from the block below, save the same and reload the game.
3. If you have difficulty in doing what has been dubbed 'the superjump' in the church cellar (on the tile which will have steam rising from it), just line yourself up with the edge of the tile, press jump, and just before you reach the attic with bell, keep down action, and she will grab the ledge.
4. Several characters in this game are interactive, just walk up in front of them and they will speak.
