Misc. Author Info       : I like Doom][

Description             :    Included are a variety of Dehacked patches
                          and TINYSHOT.ZIP.  The patches included are:
                          the ARSENAL series, which beefs up all the
                          weapons (Arsenals 2-4 change the plasma gun
                          to a different weapon.); BLUD, which causes
                          enemies and players to bleed pools of blood
                          like other, similar patches; CRANKED, which
                          speeds up the monsters or gives them extra
                          abilities; and LIFETAKE, which changes the
                          BFG to a "smart bomb" type weapon that
                          produces health potions.

                             The various ARSENAL patches cannot
                          combine with each other without causing
                          side effects.  All other patches can be
                          combined without any problems.  You can
                          combine one ARSENAL patch with one or more
                          non-ARSENAL patches.

                             TINYSHOT.ZIP contains a wad with rocket
                          and plasma sprites.  More information is
                          contained in that file.

                             Now you're ready for some REAL action :)

Base                    : The ARSENAL patches use ROSSGUNS as a base.
                           I also got some ideas from QUADGUN and
                           MKBLOOD.  However, much of the work is
                           done from scratch.
