Description:	<--- I hate this trying to fill this line, but many people like a bit of story, so I better think of one >:-< Okay, hows this: It has been noted that some areas of America are more prone to UFO sightings/crashes than anywhere else in the world. However, it is not usual for there to be a confirmed sighting every day in a small village with a population of only a hundred or so. Couple this with the fact that contact with the town has been lost since the local authorities announced that they had captured a handful of extra-terrestrials. It is not known exactly what has happened, the most likely explanations are that either the population of the village has been infected with a fatal disease and are all dead, or that they are under alien control. It has been theorised that in the case of alien control, there must be some form of central command post, which must be infiltrated, investigated, and destroyed as quickly as possible. Due to the nature of this infiltration operation, you will enter the village alone, and with minimal weaponry. You are, however, authorised to use lethal force against any beings of unknown origin, or anyone who attempts to compromise your mission. \|\ \| \ ________________________\| \ \| \ \| NOW ENTERING THE \ \| VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED / \|________________________ / \| / \| / \|/

Anonymous	Not exactly vomit, but still not worth the bother. 1/5	x
Anonymous	I pretty much enjoy such 1994 style levels even crappy ones (at least if they are not very confusing). I searched for description UFO to find this. It's a funny level. Like the snipping holes. Miss many of then in doom levels. 2.5/5 - Optimus	x

Misc. Author Info       : I put this level together to take my mind off my
			  GCSEs, and now that they are over, I am beginning
			  to wonder why I bothered.  I have the answer though:
			  		I ENJOYED CREATING IT  :)
			  I don't really mind what people think of it, 
			  if you like it, please Email me to tell me so.  If
			  you have any constructive criticism, I suppose that
			  wouldn't go amiss :)

Okay, hows this:

It has been noted that some areas of America are more
			  prone to UFO sightings/crashes than anywhere else in
			  the world.  However, it is not usual for there to be
			  a confirmed sighting every day in a small village with
			  a population of only a hundred or so.

Couple this with the fact that contact with the town
			  has been lost since the local authorities announced
			  that they had captured a handful of extra-terrestrials.

It is not known exactly what has happened, the most
			  likely explanations are that either the population of
			  the village has been infected with a fatal disease and
			  are all dead, or that they are under alien control.

It has been theorised that in the case of alien control,
			  there must be some form of central command post, which
			  must be infiltrated, investigated, and destroyed as
			  quickly as possible.

Due to the nature of this infiltration operation, you
			  will enter the village alone, and with minimal weaponry.
			  You are, however, authorised to use lethal force against
			  any beings of unknown origin, or anyone who attempts to
			  compromise your mission.

* If you like this WAD *

This product is thankmeware.
You may distribute it as described below in the legal bit,
but you are encouraged to thank me if you like it.
If you do not like it, there is no obligation to
thank me.  Remember, it is the thanks wad authors get
which encourages them to create more wads.

I have made other wads, but they may or may not have been put on
this site, depending on whether or not I, and the cdrom.com
people think they are any good.  Even if I do release them,
I will probably have to change some of the names, which have
already been used by other authors ;-(

WARNING: THERE MAY BE WADs AVAILABLE WITH THESE NAMES.
	 THAT DOESN'T MEAN THEY'RE MINE.

ocatagons.wad - my first ever WAD, very small, pointless, too hard,
		it was full of bugs until I recently fixed them,
		ABIT IT5H

cross.wad     -	my second WAD, still not too good, but better than no. 1

temple.wad    - much better than previous two WADS, but ridiculously
		difficult to find the secret exit.

hives.wad     - AVAILABLE NOW - Try it for yourself.
		
secret.wad    -	took me only four hours, a bit cheesy, but no bugs or
		anything.

Alternatively, I may do another three and make a full episode, which
is what I originally intended to do.  I am not sure if people prefer
to play nine single levels, or a whole episode.

* Copyright / Permissions *

Authors MAY ASK ME if they can use this level as a base to build
additional levels.

You MAY distribute this WAD, provided you include this file, with
no modifications.  You may distribute this file in any electronic
format (BBS, Diskette, CD, etc) as long as you include this file 
intact.
