Misc. Author Info       : This is my first .wad to be released, so I hope
                          you enjoy it. :)

Release Note            : This is bugfix release for the original Commandos!
                          
			  Old Update:
			  Fixed a bug with the double-barreled shotgun
                          that allowed it to load 2 extra shells than you
			  could possibly carry with or without a backpack.
			  Also replaced the SMG's sound with a newer,
			  more interesting one. :)

			  Latest Update: 
		          Fixed the silent explosion bug for the grenade
		          launcher. Rebalanced the Shotguns. They now fire
			  more pellets, giving them slightly more killing 
			  power. 

			  Other changes include adding the berserk effect 
			  to the fist. Because of how the berserk effect 
			  behaves in 1.29, this might break compatibility
			  with 1.28a. Also changed were the volumes for 
		          some of the weapons, as they were too loud, 
			  which also might break compatibility. I didn't
			  have time to test this release with 1.28a, so
			  use at your own risk! This version will work with
		          1.29, though.   

Newstuff Reviewers      : It's up to you whether or not you want to review
			  this version. It's pretty much the same mod that
			  was reviewed by DD_133 for The /newstuff 
                          Chronicles #216. 

Description             : Commandos! Doom is a weapons mod for EDGE 1.28a.
                          The basic goal I had in mind while making this
                          was to replace most, if not all of the weapons
                          and add a few new ones into Doom. I decided to
                          keep the number of weapons small, around 10 or
                          so, and make sure that all the weapons were
                          useful or balanced in some way. To keep the
                          arcade like feeling of the original Doom
                          weapons, I decided not to make the weapons
                          reload. Most of the weapon graphics come from
                          other sources.
                          
                          The name for this mod was sort of random, but
                          also slightly absurd. What weapons would the
                          player have used if he was a Commando? Would he
                          still use the same weapons or even come across
                          the mighty BFG 9000, or would his superiors
                          supply him with all new weapons?
                          
                          Anyway, I hope you enjoys using these weapons!
                          RIP AND TEAR!

                          Please Note: This mod has been tested with the 
                          original Doom, and works fine. However, you won't 
			  be able to use the Double Midget SMGs unless you 
			  cheat. Also, you are welcome to use any of the 
			  graphics in this .wad as long as you credit any of 
			  the sources listed in READTHIS.txt. This version
			  has also been tested with EDGE 1.29 RC#2, and works
			  perfectly.
