STORY:
A year has passed since Ray successfully destroyed
the UAC and several of their Nukage production
compounds. Soon after Ray completed his mission,
the prestigious General Kawasaki, one of the last
surviving military leaders on Earth, sought him out
and rewarded him with a Medal of Courage for his
heroic effort.
As a result of the devastating effects of Nukage
around the world, about 80% of humanity has either
died or become completely zombified. The remaining
population has banded together in an effort to
reclaim their cities and hopefully start to rebuild
once the remaining bloodthirsty mutants and hellish
creatures are wiped out. Maybe the remainder of
humanity will even learn a lesson about not abusing
resources, if indeed they survive.
Under the auspices of General Kawasaki, Ray has
been receiving high-level training with almost
every kind of firearm known to man. Equipped with
his new set of skills, he has become nothing less
than a killing machine! No matter which weapon he
uses, he can lay giant crowds of mutants to waste
in a matter of seconds.
Ray's current and final assignment is to fight the
remaining infected mutants and demonic invaders in
his local area, a once-beautiful tropical region
consisting of beaches, small towns and old historic
ruins. Nukage took its toll on most of Ray's
friends and family and changed them from people he
loved into hideous monsters, so at this point he
wants justice. All uninfected survivors have been
evacuated to a safe zone in Japan, so he can now go
in guns blazing to help prevent this wave of horror
from spreading any further.
Ray misses his old life of surfing and drinking
with his friends, but all the chaos he's been
through has proven him to be as gifted a soldier as
he is a surfer. Can you help him complete his
mission and save what's left of humanity?

WEAPONS & MONSTERS:
Ray's new arsenal is, frankly speaking, absurdly
powerful.
Like in the first episode, the fists are replaced
with Ray's trusty knife, which does 5 times the
damage of Doomguy's fists per hit, and is more than
twice as fast.
The chainsaw is replaced with the gauntlets from
Heretic, but super souped up. They're twice the
speed of the normal saw, meaning they do twice the
damage in total.
The pistol deals 7 times more damage per shot than
the vanilla pistol, making it one of the most beefy
starter weapons you'll find in a Doom wad. It's
faster as well!
The shotgun is roughly 3 times tougher than it's
unmodified counterpart, firing 20 pellets rather
than 7 per blast. It takes two shells per shot
rather than one, but it deals enough of a wallop to
be worth it.
The auto-shotgun replaces the SSG. It's an upgrade
for the shotgun that makes it, well, automatic!
When it comes to clearing a path through hellspawn,
this weapon is like a hot knife through butter.
The chaingun is replaced by a cool futuristic
blaster. If you love the chaingun but have just
been wishing for a version with about 7 times the
killing power, this is the gun for you. (You also
don't have to shoot it twice every time you fire.)
The RL is replaced with the cell cannon.
It fires explosive plasma balls very rapidly that
are this mod's equivalent of rockets, but since it
uses cell ammo, your maximum ammo is much higher,
meaning you can blow away a whole lot more
baddies.
The plasma rifle is replaced with a
flamethrower! Those of you familiar with the Rowdy
Rudy wads have probably been wanting to use that
sweet flamethrower after being on the receiving
end, and now you can! To put this beast's power
into perspective, each flame does 3 times as much
damage as a standard plasma ball. The only minor
drawback is that it has a somewhat limited range of
about 900 pixels.
The BFG9000 has been upgraded to the BFG9002
(Nine-thousand and two). It only needs 25 cells to
produce a blast that took 40 for the old BFG, it
emits two waves of tracers rather than just one,
and it fires much faster. This gun's killing power
is simply off the charts, so naturally it only
comes into play later in the set.
Monster alterations:
Commander Keen is now replaced by an actual enemy -
Slyor, who has a cannon that shoots a volley of
flames followed by 3 imp fireballs in quick
succession. He has 250 health points (half the
strength of a Hell Knight).
I gave the Wolfenstein SS soldiers a new look
lifted from Kick Attack!, making them viable fodder
in between a shotgunner a chaingunner.
Finally, the Cyberdemon has been modified to fire
in volleys of 6 rather than 3, just to make him a
touch deadlier than usual. It's only fair
considering the player's firepower! I bleached him
to help signify that he's not your typical Cybie.
