Misc. Author Info       : Why did I spend so much time doing this?
                          By the way: the author is german, so don't laugh
                          about any stupid mistakes in the description. I
                          don't know if a word like 'panicstricken' even
                          exists.

Description             : New Levels for DOOM I

                          Yes, there is a reason for this slaughter:

                            You are part of an expedition to explore distant
                          solar-systems with an earthlike condition. Good old
                          earth is pretty rundown, so humanity needs a new place
                          to stay. When your ship took of, the crew put you and
                          five of your collegues into some sort of freezing
                          chamber, so you wouldn't use up all the air, food
                          and water. They were supposed to wake you up once
                          the ship had reached an orbit.

                                ...

                            You wake up, eyes closed. Slowly you begin to
                          remember who and where you are. But you can't move
                          yet. You wait for the medics to take you out of the
                          chamber and give you some shots to make you feel bet-
                          ter. You wait. Nothing happens. No medics. As you
                          begin to feel your body again, you open your eyes and
                          look around. Why is your chamber still closed? You
                          realize that, since you're awake now, you will need
                          a lot more air, than when you were still asleep. Why
                          isn't anybody opening the hatch? Panicstricken you try
                          to open it, but it won't move, it's not supposed to be
                          opened from within. In the end you simply smash your
                          fist trough the glass and crawl out, still naked.
                            You shiver. Noone is in the room, all the other
                          chamber are still closed but you can see from the
                          controllights that the lifesupport has turned it-
                          self of. Hastily you open all of them, but too late,
                          your collegues are dead. Then you hear a sound from
                          outside the room - a sound that is not at all human...

                            However - you know it all from the movies: Your
                          ship is infested with Aliens and you have to kill
                          them all! Get a gun and do it! You remember there is
                          an armoury somewhere near. You also remember a
                          teleport-chamber. You know you have to go there,
                          beam yourself to the evil alien's planet (E2M2), find
                          a way to the caves below the surface (E2M3) and
                          finally find the switch to blow the damned thing up.
                          Sacrifice yourself to save humanity. And if not for
                          humanity, than for the fun.
