Description             : War rages in Hell.  Three blind lords rise up
                         to stand in judgment as their brothers battle
                         for dominance in some petty squabble....
                         Unfortunately for you, they decide to bash each
                         others' silicon-brains out right in the middle
                         of your marine practice area (map 01).

                         Man, have you got problems. Thought this was going
                         to be an easy run through the same-ol maze? Just
                         go take a peek around that pillar to your right
                         and tell me what you think... :)

                         Still alive?

                              LORDS OF HELL - DEATHMATCH VERSION
                          ==========================================

                          Had a chance to test it in deathmatch mode last
                          weekend. Noticed a few bugs and got a few ideas.
                          Several new minor changes. The "shield-walls"
                          are especially fun if you don't know about them.

                          There are four or five major areas that provide
                          interesting fortresses. My favourite is
                          "the snipers pit" which opens up on the main
                          hall. Almost impossible to get into with just
                          two players.  But get a pal to help you
                          root out your common enemy and... =)

                          Actually, each of the beta testers last week had
                          their own favourite places... some of which I just
                          enhanced by their desires, while I think I
                          didn't just introduce any major bugs, there
                          are no promises.

                          If you play WITH the monsters, be aware that
                          you don't HAVE to kill the cyber-demons to win.
                          But these secrets are best left for you to
                          figure out....  And there are several secrets.
                          "He who knows the secret ways shall prevail."
                          ... everyone else gets fragged.

                          Hope the modifications I just made don't
                          change the balance of the game too much.

                          The play is JUST barely acceptable on a 486sx25
                          but a 486sx33 seems to be a good minimum.

                          BTW: Careful what buttons you press! <grin>

                          Oh,...and sorry 'bout the UAC room. It was just
                          so bloody easy without it, so....  It does present
                          some problems doesn't it? :)

                         Beyond the few "visual" problems it seems to work
                         ok... but I haven't tested it multiplayer yet.
                         Also, I think there's some kind of "recursive" bug
                         in the main room that is slowing things down
                         more than it should.
                         Well, just don't sit there... play it! or debug it!
