Description:	Like AG Assault, one guy on platform, other guy hides behind barriers, lotsa weapons and stuff. Nice cool music to set the tone. Sometimes both guys end up on the same level. This is really fun - chasing the other guy around the 'arena', like a wild goose hunt. TIP: click on that pillar on the top level... neato! You really have to see what's in that neato pillar! -=- Play AGMax.wad NOW! -=-

Anonymous	This is a frighteningly suboptimal pile of cack from December 1994. As a deathmatch level, it's just a square room with some angular pillars; as a single-player level, it only has 70 monsters but they tend to be archviles and pain elementals, so it's frustratingly unplayable, with dozens of skulls flying into your face. The readme suggests that it took ages to do, which is the real tragedy; it's awful.	x
Anonymous	OMFG...this even has a 1 Player mode, which almost rivals Dyke Project. Pure Orangutan diahrrea here.	x

* How this WAD was made *

This level started off as a big room with a platform at one end.  
I added The thingy's in the middle when I thought to make it look 
like the American Gludiators Assault field.  I continued making 
improvements and changes to the level, including making it 
drastically smaller at one time.  Once the things were in place, 
I tested out my new Doom ][ editor by putting in all sorts of 
monsters.  Unfortunately, I saved over the wad without monsters -
and I'm too lazy to remove the monsters (that's why you use the 
-nomonsters switch for this level!).  I asked someone whether to 
make the wad for Doom I or Doom ][.  They said to make it for 
Doom ][.  So I redid all the textures with some thought in mind 
this time.  I added some super shotguns and put in the really cool 
stuff around the BFG (you know... in the column).  I then had to 
make the map MAP32, because I liked the music in that level. I 
would have been simple and plain and made the level MAP01, but 
I lack an editor to extract/import music for Doom ][.  P.S. If you 
think this level is any good, go to the #hockey on the irc and 
tell them to tell me that you think it's good.  :-]  By the way:  
my nick is MaCkS.
