* Story *

        He is wanted in four solar systems for petty larceny,
        murder in the fourth degree, and nondescript terrorizing
        in general.  His name strikes a certain fear in crime
        lords and next-door street goons alike.

        He is Citizen Abel.
        The most efficient and economical hit-man in the galaxy.

        A Small Red Box is desired by your latest employer,
        who goes by the name of Dr. Rennie.  The only thing
        that you know about The Red Box is that Dr. Rennie is
        willing to fork over serious bucks for it; and basically,
        that is all you want to hear.

        Via airplane, the drop should land you right into the
        loading dock facility The Red Box was last seen in.
        Luckily, the good Dr. Rennie will also provide a supply
        box with a Holy Toledo 32-Gauge Shotgun and an amount
        of premium-grade shotgun shells.

        The drop will commence in forty minutes, so lock and
        load, Citizen Abel.  Approach with extreme prejudice
        to earn yourself an honest buck.

        Good luck.

* Other Info *

I began making this map after I finished playing the game
MDK by Shiny Entertainment (a very well designed game! I
just really loved that really bizarre atmosphere it had)

Looking Glass Studio's THIEF also made me want to make a
single-player level because of how very innovative & different
their gameplay was.

This is my first single-player level; all my previous maps
have been for deathmatch.

Basically, I wanted a single-player level that would be fun,
and flow well.  I also wanted it to be more on the slam-bang
action, with the sloppy gibs and such

But, the heavy weaponry comes with a cost; because of the
fact that health packs come quite few and rare...

note: the third level (the brick one) has very nasty r_speeds,
usually around the 1000 range.  I couldn't get qvis3 to
compile it correctly.  Lower-end machines will have
problems running it, sorry.

Thanks if you downloaded this map.  If you have any comments,
questions, or requests, e-mail me at blender81@hotmail.com

thanks
