We who are About to Die

Well, that was quite the surprise. A "Cabal series" map that diverges from the usual formula of ammo + health starvation in order to blow the difficulty artificially up. Even if the premise sounds like the weakest out of all the series, (an arena, seriously?) and the whole thing looks like a lamer's first WAD (...only superficially) this is actually a solid and action-packed map. Those 130 monsters (on UV) have to come from somewhere, after all.

The progression, while seemingly linear, has its little secrets that can make or break one's completion of the map, and rest assured, you will NOT find the best way to complete it on your first go. Oh and there's no SSG. Let's say it makes for a quite interesting speedrunning map ;-)

Ammo is, for once, adequate, but health really is at a premium, so there's no reason to trade one for the other: just try to do a clean job whenever possible, and be really wary of hitscanners and that PE in the starting area: those can really chop you up badly and set you up for failure before you even get to the really tricky parts.

Highly recommended. After all, not many maps make you say "OK, let's try this one more time, I'm sure I can do better than that" for the 12th time in a row :-p

The 5th Cabal, small arena deathmatch to solo-play transformed map, many humans have lost their souls to hungry demons but they won't stop you...
