- Description : The best thing about these levels is they're fairly
- straight-forward. That is there's no find
- the key, spend 20 minutes looking for where
- to use it, 20 seconds of death-dealing, find
- a secret switch and so on. That's not to say
- that this kind of level doesn't have its
- place, it does, but i don't design that.
- I've had enough of that from DOOM II.
- These levels (i think) are original. I haven't
- really played anything like them. Anyway,
- please see what you think, and let me know.
- NOTE: The above email address is mine only
- until the end of '95.

- OK. You were one of the unlucky ones, you weren't
- killed. Trying to rid that sector of Caco-
- demons was useless, and you knew it. Command
- HQ knew better and sent you in at the head of
- a bunch of inexperienced soldiers, most of
- them useless. All are dead. Except one who
- was captured. You.
-
- They've got you bricked up in a small room. You
- thought you had an idea why. After you found
- the pistol there you knew why. Rumors had
- infiltrated back to base that the Cacodemons
- liked to play soldier bating with any captured
- soldiers. You know what's in store.
-
- A feeling wells up in your gut you know to be fear.
- You look at the tiny weapon in your hand and
- groan. You'll be lucky to take out one. All
- is lost. You wait for death.
-
- Visions of those red bastards killing killing killing
- roar through your mind, slowly enraging you to
- accept the inevitable. Surfacing through
- these thoughts of death, however, is another
- thought, revenge. Not with a pistol. You'd
- walk through hell for a shotgun. Maybe you
- will...
-
- NOTE:- Level 3 is a bit more unprofessional than
- the rest. It originally was a DOOM level.
- It's good however. SO PLAY IT!! Play them
- all. You'll feel better.
-
- HINTS:- (1) Play at least skill 3
- (2) DON'T CHEAT!!!!
- (3) There is no third hint
- (4) Or fourth
