This is my second released level.
Description : After radio calls to Substation Alpha
have garnered no response for four days,
UAC send you in to find out what happened
to the marines and staff. Little did they
know that this research and development
station would have become so infested so
quickly. Grabbing your trusty pistol
(though secretly despising it's wimpy
discharge sound), you descend the lift...
Additional Credits to : Everyone who wrote me about 3x-play, saying
"do another!"
Adam Windsor, beta-tester extraordinaire,
and the person who I grabbed the "blind them
with lots of items" idea from. HURRAH! :)
Blain Newport and Sam Taylor, for additional
beta-testing and commentary.
Brian Vannatta, for giving me and my friends
the best deathmatch levels I've ever played,
and for the corner TV screens idea from
DANZIG2 (level 20).
Obligatory nod to the geniuses at id.

* Copyright / Permissions *
Authors may NOT use this level as a base to build additional
levels. Think up your own; it's not that hard. Sheesh.
(If _I_ can do it...)
You MAY distribute this WAD, provided you include this file with
no modifications. You may upload this file anywhere to anybody.
However, the (c) stays with the author -- namely, me. If this
level is included on any compilation that is not distributed free
(i.e., if you're charging for it), you'll need my permission to do
so, as well as sending me a copy of whatever this work appears on.
If you want to make money off my work, it's only fair that I do, too.
* Where to get this WAD *
FTP sites: ftp.cdrom.com and it's mirrors.
Other: My second effort, folks. Lemme know if you like this one,
too. I mean, if it sucks, tell me quick before I inflict
another one on the world, y'know...? Oh, and a quick note:
this one doesn't have "monster randomization" like 3x-play,
but it does have a few (nasty) twists depending which skill
level you play. All of the skill levels are fun to play,
and the UV one promises a slaughterhouse. I make levels for
the maximum amount of enjoyment for the player, so play this
one at all difficulties (even though Not Too Rough does seem
kinda wimpy, it's still a good warm-up). Enjoy!
