Description:	Slaughter map, apparantly. That's what they call these kinds of maps, right? Man, it's been years since I last dabbled in any doom editing. Anyway, I tried to put in the extra bit of effort to differentiate this from your average slaughter map, but this is a bit of a new concept for me, so I'm not completely sure how it'll turn out. I wanted to try out a few neat ideas I had with this, so be sure and let me know what you think!
Credits:
Base:	New from scratch
Build time:	About a week. Wanted to see how hard I could push myself. ;)
Editor(s) used:	Doombuilder, XWE
Bugs:	There's probably a few lurking around that I missed. Email me if you find any.

Description		: Slaughter map, apparantly.  That's what they
			  call these kinds of maps, right?  Man, it's been
			  years since I last dabbled in any doom editing.

Anyway, I tried to put in the extra bit of effort
			  to differentiate this from your average slaughter
			  map, but this is a bit of a new concept for me,
			  so I'm not completely sure how it'll turn out.  I
			  wanted to try out a few neat ideas I had with
			  this, so be sure and let me know what you think!

Gameplay Information	: One important thing to note: About mid-way
			  through you are required to use a Chainsaw to
			  "chop down" a set of tall pillars to continue.  I
			  wasn't sure of a good way to make this function
			  more obvious than the way I did it, so just keep
			  that in mind.  Be sure to "chop down" the pillar
			  with the invincility spheres, first, to make your
			  life a lot easier for the remaining pillars.

Note also that the enemy spawns run on a fixed
			  schedule, so you must kill off enemy forces as
			  quickly as possible (but not recklessly!) or
			  you'll likely get swamped.  You'll probably need
			  a bit of planning to get through this, but it is
			  doable!

Story			: With the cleansing of the terrible demon presence
			  on Earth, hope for humanity's survival is
			  rekindled.  However, the war is not won yet.  It
			  appears a final UAC Gateway is still active and
			  is brewing hell's largest invasion force yet!
			  You must hold off this invasion long enough
			  for the last remaining UAC scientist survivors
			  to hack into the Gateway system and disable the
			  link between this world and the next once and for
			  all!

Humanity's final hope for survival now rests on
			  your shoulders!

Running this level:
I've only tested it on PRBoom and Zdoom thus far, but it should run on any
boom-compatible engine that supports voodoo dolls.
