Zahid	Way big from 94's league gameply and progression like noob but layout is perfectly looks like modren day slaughter maps.....2/5 if talking nowadys but keeping production date in mind 4/5	x
Anonymous	A gigantic map... 415 monsters thrown in on UV, and still there's barely enough of a challenge to even keep you from yawning. Playing Tyson style might spice things up a bit,though. The map consists mostly of enormous, completely bare rooms with tons of lightweight monsters, huge lifts, and small cramped corridors leading seemingly nowhere and everywhere at the same time. The progression is wierd as well. Not much to like here, I'm afraid. Still, there's far far worse (amazingly). --2/5	x
Anonymous	This is like a 1FIFFYX.WAD map.... only a lot lot worse!	x

Description             : A level for guys who want mainly to fight.

You are now at Deimos moonbase in front of an area that was
planned as an storage area by the UAC, but not used yet. You
found one dying space marine in front of the two large doors
that could tell you only that the demons that invaded this
area have two leaders hating each other and that there is a
column with four switches that controls access to several areas.

Some notes:

o    Old versions of this level were E2M1_MT.WAD and E2M1_MT2.WAD,
      because I had problems to find a name for this level.

o    You can't block your way if you use every switch you will
      find - but beware - the enemy could also use the opportunity.
      There is one exception I know, but to become trapped you
      have to move immediately after turning the switch. If you are
      a tough fighter you can turn all switches without much
      thinking - this level is designed for fighters!

o    Some rooms are rather empty, because the game may slow down
      if there is too much decoration - and there are limitations
      of the DOOM engine.
 
 o    A fast 486 or a Pentium is recommended for this level.

o    Mail me your comments or your LMP files for this level.
