Description             : Inside this community map pack lurk ravenous hordes
                         made up of monsters both old and new. Play alone or
                         gather your allies and test your strength against
                         the Hordes of Odamex!

                         Defeat the bosses of each wave to advance further,
                         and to conquer the map, or be laid low by the
                         overwhelming ferocity of the horde.
