Description:	Somewhere on the moon of Phobos, a school sits in a big crator. This school takes dumb daemons from hell and teaches them how to become REAL FIGHTERS! They go to classes durring the day, and they go out and do their "homework" on the streets of the inner Phobos city at night. YOU HAVE TO SHUT DOWN THE INSTITUTION! Well, well, well. Looks like they hide the entrance to the school grounds fairly well, don't they? But you, B.J. BLASKOWICTZ, are too smart for them! (You'll see.) You go through the corridors of the building, and you're suddenly telleported into a classroom! The daemons, as well as the "professors", turn their excercises into applicastions! But you'll blast them all to kindom come, even the Barron "professors"! As you go on a classroom rampage, many daemons in the cafeteria will be shooting at you! After all of that, you might take a trip to the Administration Offices are share a little of your lead over there as well. You finally reach the "final exam" room, filled LITERALLY with about a couple hundred daemons, and could be as high as SEVERAL hundred ALL AT ONCE! And if that wasn't enough, when you get on the balcony, up to TWENTY Barrons Of Hell will join in on the fun! (Now you know why this is soooooooooooooooooo jerky!) No need to pannic! You got a GIGANTIC room full of ammo! After giving your best educational lesson to the daemons of Hell, you go through the exit, and you can play a level you'll have control over!

Anonymous	For reasons sufficiently described above, this wad can be ignored without getting the idea of missing something interestingly.	x
MajorRawne	A mess and a total waste of time, even for lovers of vintage mapping from Doom's days of naivety.	x
Anonymous	This is an old-style "school massacre" wad, back from the innocent days of late 1994. It crams in over 800 monsters, which was pretty rare for 1994; lord knows how well it played with Doom.exe on a 486SX25. It doesn't play very well with Zdoom today - it works, but it's really just a bunch of square rooms filled with hundreds of monsters that tend to kill each other. Gameplay consists of shooting 843 monsters and then winning.	x
Anonymous	Fun, in a braindead "here's a ton of ammo, kill the hundreds of demons" way. Still, architecture is mostly plain, texturing is repetitive, inescapable sludge pits, a sludge maze, makes regular doom.exe crash on occasion, the secret area is STUPIDLY hard to find, and it's not that challenging despite the monster count. 1/5 -VV	x
Anonymous	This school...nothing. Back when I went to school, I had to wear an blouse with oversized peter-pan-collars, knickerbockers, walk 10 miles uphill in 6 feet of snow, and the nun would crack my knuckles with a yardstick if I so much breathed too loudly. As for the level 3 stars.	x
Anonymous	A pretty crappy level.	x
Anonymous	This is basically Fiffy experimenting with how many monsters he can throw into a Doom Level with little thought on the Gameplay. Avoid......	x

PLEASE SEND APROPRIATE MAIL TO THE APROPRIATE PERSON(S)! HOWEVER, if you
have SOFTWARE CRESTIONS BBS access, but you have no AOL or INTERNET 
access, I will relay your questions about the music, or I'll talk to you
about the actual level construction.

PS: If you have any suggestions for the next REoL TOUGH levels, contact me!
   I can't change the graphics (SOB!), and someone else does the music
   (NO RAP, dance or hip-hop please. It doesn't fit in DOOM).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
  This game can be played in all modes. In 1 or multi-player games, you'll
all start out in the same room. You'll have a shotgun to start with.
  In DEATHMATCH, there's no exit. Some of you will start in the same areas
(uh oh!). You'll start off with a shotgun, some ammo, a backpack, a plasma
gun, and a energy pack. USE YOUR SHOTS WISELY!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW TO PLAY THE NEW LEVEL

At the DOOM prompt, type:          DOOM -FILE WAR4.WAD

Although you can choose the level of difficulty, it's gonna' be one hell
of a battle! I hope you're good, and have a Pentium!

PS: A 486 cpu of at least 20MHz will play this game somewhat decently, but
   will be awful jerky! A high speed 486 (50+MHz) or a Pentium will make
   this playable at even the highest levels of difficulty.
    From all the complaints I recieved about TOTAL WAR II and TOTAL WAR
   III that I read (all 3 of them!), The easy levels of difficulty has  
   significantly fewer monsters than the medium level of difficulty. Plus,
   a much simpler building design also helps reduce jerkyness even more.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Didn't you wish that you could go to school one day and get even with
the teachers or professors, as well as the staff and bullies? YOU CAN! Go
into classrooms. Inturrupt class! Shoot 'em all dead! REVENGE IS SWEET!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  WE DON'T NEED NO EDUCATION.... You'l all be toasted anyway!
  HEY, TEACHER, LEAVE THOSE KIDS ALONE!.... I'll belt them for you!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

STORY:

Somewhere on the moon of Phobos, a school sits in a big crator. This
school takes dumb daemons from hell and teaches them how to become REAL
FIGHTERS! They go to classes durring the day, and they go out and do
their "homework" on the streets of the inner Phobos city at night. YOU
HAVE TO SHUT DOWN THE INSTITUTION!
   Well, well, well. Looks like they hide the entrance to the school
grounds fairly well, don't they? But you, B.J. BLASKOWICTZ, are too smart
for them! (You'll see.) You go through the corridors of the building, and
you're suddenly telleported into a classroom! The daemons, as well as the
"professors", turn their excercises into applicastions! But you'll blast
them all to kindom come, even the Barron "professors"! As you go on a
classroom rampage, many daemons in the cafeteria will be shooting at you!
  After all of that, you might take a trip to the Administration Offices
are share a little of your lead over there as well. You finally reach the
"final exam" room, filled LITERALLY with about a couple hundred daemons,
and could be as high as SEVERAL hundred ALL AT ONCE! And if that wasn't
enough, when you get on the balcony, up to TWENTY Barrons Of Hell will
join in on the fun! (Now you know why this is soooooooooooooooooo jerky!)
No need to pannic! You got a GIGANTIC room full of ammo!
  After giving your best educational lesson to the daemons of Hell, you
go through the exit, and you can play a level you'll have control over!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
                              PLAYING TIPS:

(1) The action is jerky beyond human belief! Don't try to "floor it" in
    areas where you'll fall off the edges of ledges and into pools of
    toxic waste. Make small movements and you'll have good controll over
    this horrifying School of Hell (and the scrolling).

(2) In order to get into the cafeteria, you will need to get the "lunch
    card" to open the door (yellow key). Geting in here could LIFT your
    spirits (hint, hint, hint!).

(3) When you're telleported into your first classroom (you'll walk into
    the rest of them thereafter), try to shoot your way towards the door.
    This way, when the invulnerability wears off, you can fight what
    remains without YOU ending up AS remains!

(4) Secrets, even with cheat codes, will NOT show (heh, heh, heh! Get
    used to it.) on the map. One's fairly obvious though, like the door
    that is in the middle of "nowhere". (See tip #2 for accessability.)

(5) There doesn't seem to be any large places to fight those Barrons!
    As you walk away shooting, lead them into the green weapons room (this
    is the classroom area). PLENTY of space to dodge and move around in! 
    
(6) The teachers (barrons) conduct class behind a potium in front of the
    blackboard. On the blackboard side of the potium is a switch to open
    up the next area to be discovered (the Administration Offices can be
    entered at any time you wish). You'll go through four classrooms.
    (There is a fifth classroom. Can you find it?)

(9) After going through the four classrooms, a door in the hallway opens
    up to reveal a big room full of ledges. You must note (it's VERY
    important!) that the ledges YOU stand on have five sides. Two sides
    make an "arrow" at the ends of the ledges. Jump off the ledges in the    
    direction these "arrows" point! If you don't, you'll parrish in the
    toxic waste pool below.

(8) To do away with the secretaries and others in the main room of the
    Administration Offices, it's best to shoot from the OUTSIDE. Stay in
    the main hallway on the other side of the windows and shoot away. DO
    NOT LET DAEMONS OPEN THE DOOR! If you shoot while the door is open,
    the faculty in their offices will come out after you! These are not
    typical scum, they're MEANIES! Wait 'till you kill everyone inside the
    main room first.

(9) You might want to check out what's inside the Administration Offices!
    There's some neat stuff in there...

(10) Also in the main hallway is the cafeteria (remember, you need the
     "lunch card" to open the door), there are quite a few daemons eating
     lunch. They see you, they come at you. Take this slowly. Expose a few
     daemons at a time. You get them all going, you'll be full of holes
     so fast...

(11) At the actual war room (remember, the "final exam" area), when the
     walls lower, turn around and take the nearby lift to the balcony! DO
     NOT LEAVE THE BALCONY AREA! You don't need to, since it has it's own
     ammo room (grey) and health. You won't get mauled on the ground.

(12) If you need to duck into the doorway (while on the balcony), you need
     not waste valuable time turning around to walk in the doorway. This
     room was designed so if you miss the door, you'll "slide" into the
     doorway. 
     
(13) IN DEATHMATCH: When going against friends, you will note that you
     will have NO ACCESS to the exit! This means you'll actually have to 
     FIND your friends and kill them all!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Known "Boo-boo's":

(1) BLACKOUT! There is an error in the DOOM.EXE file where rooms that are
    too tall have some sort of "snow bars" between sectors. This happens
    in the "room of ledges" when you grab the lift (remember the hint?).
    If you stand DIRECTLY in front of the lift as close as you can, the
    screen seems to "black out". Stand back a hare.
      If you do NOT have a sound card, you'll NEVER know when the lift 
    came down! You DEFINATELY should stand back a little!

(2) HALL OF MIRRORS: If you're in the dishwasher room next to the kitchen
    of the cafeteria and open the metal door, you may experience the in-
    famous (and dreaded) Hall Of Mirrors effect. This is because the cafe-
    teria has so many sectors that it exceeds the limit DOOM can draw on
    screen. This happened in HOTEL as well (REoL TOUGH: Hotel).

(3) INVISABLE ENEMIES, AND SHOTS! Well, the usual REoL TOUGH problem of
    disapearing enemies is in here (gee, what a suprise). What you did
    NOT expect is that the flames and toxic waste that the Imps and the
    barrons throw can ALSO be invisable (uh-oh big time!). If you hear
    them shoot, MOVE! If you want to be nuked or cooked, don't.
