                          Please note that this WAD pushes the Doom II
                        game engine to its very limits.  As a result you
                        may occasionally get slight HOMs (especially in
                        the rail yard).
                          This WAD runs best under Doom II V1.9...

Time Taken              : About three months, on and off...

* Copyright / Permissions *

  I'd rather you didn't use this as a base for other levels.  But then, I
can't really stop you from ripping bits out of it for your own WADs!  If
you want to do this, or to use this level in a compilation WAD, or to
convert it for Deathmatch use, please CONTACT ME FIRST.

  You MAY distribute this WAD in any electronic format (BBS, Diskette,
CD, etc) as long as you include this text file with it and e-mail me to
let me know you're using it.

* Where to get this WAD *

  How the hell did you manage to get this text file without finding
the WAD?  Please e-mail me and let me know!  This section always kinda
puzzled me...

FTP
  ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/
   or one of it's many mirror sites

WWW
  My web page (address at top).

================================================================

* Other Info *

  This is my first multi-level WAD.  I've already written a lot of
WADs for Doom and Doom II, many of them rather on the large side.
Try finding Magnum Opus (MAGNUMOP) and the Garden of Delight
(GARDENSD) - they're my best two.  See my web page for a full list.

  Anyone interested in play testing future releases, contact me,
especially anyone who can test Deathmatch/Co-op.

  I'm also starting up a new WAD group, kinda like TWC or WTF, but
better :-)  It's called Black Star Coven, and if you think you've got
'the right stuff', e-mail me and let me know where I can find one of
your WADs.
  If you're an artist or a musician and you're interested in contributing,
drop me a line and tell me where to find some of your work, or attach
one or two smallish examples to your e-mail (try to keep it below 20k).

  For more details, and a proper application form to fill in, see my web
page (the address is at the top of this text file).
