Description             : My 12-level Megawad for Doom 2/Final Doom, and
                          sequel to my previous work, Damnation.
                          Horror-themed but still with plenty of action.
                          Uses .ogg music files for the levels and text
                          screens, as well as ambient sounds throughout the
                          levels. 
                          Continues the story of Damnation, with the
                          surviving marine encountering the Thanatos Base
                          on the borders of the system.
                          
                          Overall difficulty of the Wad is hard, with some
                          difficult encounters in addition to some
                          surprising tricks and traps. Levels are generally
                          large, and average about 10-15 minutes in length
                          each. Uses some monsters/weapons/items from
                          Skulltag.
                          
                          Requires Zandronum, as well as the additional
                          files in the .zip (cc4-tex.wad, q2tex.wad,
                          IDTEX.wad, skulltag_data.pk3,
                          skulltag_actors.pk3). Read the .rtf file as well
                          if you want to know more about the story and
                          details on the development of the Wad.
