* Detailed Description of Levels *

E3M1: The Courtyard of Blood
        Here's a Deathmatch level sure to rack up the kills.  All the good
stuff is towards the center and raised high on metal pillars.  Getting it
is a risk...but going without is probably worse.  You'll have to test your
bravery if you want anything worthwhile.
(Note: the center pillars won't start raising and lowering until certain
sections of the outside castle ring (by the teleporters) are crossed.)

E3M2: The Pentangle
        Again, it's quite a risk to get that precious phoenix rod and healing
situated at the heart of an icy star.  Who knows if your enemy is waiting just 
outside the walls with a Morph Ovum?
        (Don't get all fired up on me for making a star shaped level and 
saying that it is secretly some sort of satanic symbol.  The five pointed
star (Pentangle) has long been a Christian emblem and dates back to the 
legends of King Arthur.  Do your research before sending me hate mail, O.K.?)

E3M3: Attrition
        Lost in the Dark?  Of course there are light switches both to make
things brighter, and pitch black once again.  Since there aren't any healing
potions on this level, you'll have to use the Tome+Gauntlets to suck the
life out of your buddies if you want to feel better.  With lots of places
to hide, this level can be a real violent see-saw battle for supremacy...
as a good Deathmatch Arena should be.
