Misc. Author Info       : This episode was created for
                         the 1997 Con of the North
                         game convention in St. Paul,
                         Minnesota.

Description             : Many years have passed since
                         the first bloody encounters
                         with the enemy, and so, the
                         war against the demon invaders
                         continues, unabated, despite
                         the heroic efforts of the UAC.
                         Time has taken it's toll as
                         well. The resources of the
                         once mighty UAC are nearly
                         exhausted, while the enemy
                         seems to grow stronger and
                         bolder all the time...
                         You (and possibly, your
                         squadmate) are the last hope
                         of the UAC. You have been
                         chosen, from among the last
                         remaining space marines, to
                         penetrate the Caves of Steel,
                         formerly a UAC moonbase, and
                         somehow gain knowledge of (or
                         access to) the legendary
                         "ShadowGate", by which the
                         enemy transports most of its
                         troops and supplies. This gate
                         cannot be destroyed, but it
                         may be able to be used to
                         penetrate the supernatural
                         defenses of the enemy,
                         somehow. You will be inserted
                         directly into the base via
                         confiscated enemy slipgate
                         technology and from that point
                         on, you'll be on your own.
