Description             : This is my second released WAD, and is my latest
                         attempt at a level. It's a short single player map only,
                         and I have no plans to make it a Death Match map. It's
                         only intended for people who want a quick challenging
                         blast without too many special effects.
Story                   : You're a worker in a military research centre codenamed
                         UAC. Your job is simply to analyse samples given to you
                         in your laboratory, and then send the results to some
                         other lab monkeys next door. It's all pretty dull, and
                         your only highlight is seeing the armed guards posted
                         at station seventeen of the underground railway. It's in
                         there that the real top secret stuff happens, and you
                         hope to be posted their soon to see some real action.
                         It was when you was approaching station seventeen that
                         it all began, starting with a couple of brown outs. The
                         lights dimmed slightly, but it was nothing out of the
                         ordinary. You fancied that you could here a dulled
                         explosion off in the distance somewhere, drowned by
                         hundreds of metres of thick concrete. Then the power went
                         off totally, emersing you in complete darkness. The train
                         carried on under it's own momentum, and stopped right
                         outside station seventeen. You half expected the guards to
                         arrest you, incase you were some kind of spy planning the
                         whole happy coincidence. Instead there was no-one there.
                         the train lights came back on, but there was no power for
                         the tracks. You decided that you'd have to go inside the
                         station and get help to fix the train, so you picked up your
                         pistol and blue access key and headed to the train door...
What Really happended   : ** WARNING ** ONLY READ THIS AFTER PLAYING THE MAP **
                         After you played the map, read this then play it again. That
                         way you may understand the little details etc I included.
                         1. The power out for the tracks was caused by the hellspawn
                         inside the power conduit next to the train. Open the wall
                         (secret) and you'll find them.
                         2. The base was overun by the hellspawn which came from the
                         crashed ship outside. It only recentley landed (you heard the
                         boom) so the ground is still red-hot.
                         3. There is a gateway to hell which the marines were defending
                         to stop the hellspawn gaining a foothold in our world. You
                         took this to the 'other side' where you shut down the gateways
                         power source. (That's what that whole machine thing was in
                         hell.)
                         4. You took all the higher access keys from the bodies of the
                         other commanders of the base, and you can see how bravely they
                         were defending themselves by the amount of hellspawn corpses
                         littering the  floor!
                         5.There are a couple of secrets in this map if you know where
                         to look!
