Description:	A set of 6 small, tight deathmatch maps, tested and refined over several hundred games. These maps capture the feel of classic old-school deathmatch. Detailing was done in moderation as not to sacrafice gameplay and level flow. Play with "vanilla Doom" settings if possible for the most balanced gameplay.
Credits:	Bastard Man, Dr. Kevorkian, Dr. Lector, Dr. Rapenstein, SuperFijian, and Verapamill for their hundreds of hours of play-testing and suggestions. Also thanks to HeX9109, Mr. Crispy, and Ralphis for their suggestions and support.
Base:	New from scratch

Reviews:

Excellent for old fashioned dm, but some maps have spawns you might have trouble getting out of.	x
One of the best old fashioned DM wads. Highly recommend!	x
The BFG's are WAY too easy to get especially if these maps are for DeathMatch. - The maps have an extra Player 1 start. - Other then that, the maps are pretty good in according to playability and hunting overall.	x

* Level Information *

Map #                   : MAP01
Name                    : Rest In Piss
Synopsis                : This map is designed for duels, though it does handle
                          up to 5 players (albeit with some easy spawn-kills).
                          The switch in the outdoor area lowers a lift leading
                          to a lava-filled hallway with the BFG.  Suitable for
                          2 - 5 players.

Map #                   : MAP02
Name                    : Ripgut Bangin'
Synopsis                : Most spawn points are enclosed in protected areas
                          to allow the player a chance to bring up their weapon
                          before entering the fracas.  The BFG is located in a
                          room at the bottom of the lift, which is quite
                          vulnerable to rocket splash damage from above.
                          Suitable for 2 - 8 players.

Map #                   : MAP03
Name                    : The Warehouse
Synopsis                : Sometimes a little tight, but plays extremely fast.
                          The BFG is accessible behind a door that is
                          activated by a switch near the top of the metalic
                          staircase.  Suitable for 2 - 6 players.

Map #                   : MAP04
Name                    : Tha Siccness
Synopsis                : A switch in the outdoor courtyard opens a hidden
                          slime tunnel where the BFG is located.  A switch
                          in the hallway between the two windows lowers the
                          plasma rifle.  Suitable for 2 - 8 players.

Map #                   : MAP05
Name                    : Orgy of Death
Synopsis                : This map has an arena feel, centering around an
                          outdoor courtyard.  The plasma rifle is in a room
                          behind the ledge bordering the outdoor area,
                          accessible by a switch in the center of the grass.
                          There is no BFG on this map.  Suitable for
                          3 - 8 players.

Map #                   : MAP06
Name                    : Mining Outpost
Synopsis                : A bit more organic than the rest of the tech-base
                          maps in the set and also features darker lighting in
                          the underground areas.  The BFG requires finnese to
                          get, particularly under fire from an enemy.  Suitable
                          for 2 - 6 players.
