Description: 
Q. What's the easiest way of getting rid of a Tchernobite Cultist 
Stronghold?  
A. Drop a nuclear device on it from several hundred miles away.
Q. What do you do when there's no nukes handy?
A. You go and do it yourself.
	
	This has just been a bad week for you. First you were chased halfway across the 
Shadowlands by an entire pack of Devil Dogs, then after you'd finally gotten away from them
by diving into a small lake, you were attacked by the eight or so Gill Beasts that just 
happened to live there. During the struggle, most of your equipment sinks to the bottom. 
When you finally emerged from the lake, soggy and gasping for breath,  you realized that your 
only alternative was to head to the nearest Blood Legion outpost in order to resupply. 
The nearest outpost was 20 miles away.  It was a miserable 20 miles. During your trek you got
rained upon, struck by lightning (twice) and plauged by a bunch of vampire bats. By the time
You reached the outpost, you'd decided that it was high time for a nice 16 hour catnap. 
Which is probabaly why you were more than a little miffed about being involuntarily 
volunteered for a sucide mission to destroy a Cultist stronghold. "Well," the base 
commander had explained nicely, "You're really the best one of the job. It says here on your
dossier that you've had experience with this sort of thing before." You grudgingly agreed,
and he showed you the stronghold's specs. They did not look promising. Innerwall defensive
Napalm launchers, a full compliment of Cultist assault troops, and unknown internal defences.
Just peachy. Then at the bottom you noticed something you'd never even heard of before. A Mobile 
Armored Assault Vehicle? What the hell is that? On the whole, this mission was not sounding
very conducive to your prolonged survival.       
	"Now listen carefully," The base commander told you, "We can sneak you through the gates 
easily, but once you're inside, you're on your own. The only way to take down the stronghold
is to destroy the Spirit Tap, which is probabally located inside a tomb or other such, spititually
energised place. Disabling the tap will cause the structure of the building to weaken to the point 
where we can destroy it by bombardment. Good luck. I'm sure you'll succeed." 
	Right. Two hours later, you're back on the road heading for a Heavily fortified 
Cultist base.
	As you see the walls of the Stronghold loom up above the shadowlandscape, you sigh.
	It's just another one of those weeks.   

++++++++Disclaimer+++++++++++++++++
1. This map is sorta hard, but not anywhere near impossible. 
Reccommended for intermidiate to advanced players.   	
2. There are at least 2 notable spots where the going gets REALLY rough.. Here's some hints: (1.) the less you dodge, the better. (2.)there are 19 Remote bombs all in the same room. USE THEM.  
3. This map is not quite fully compatible with the Plasma Pak Addon. You can still run it, 
but a few of the effects are messed up. (like the what comes out of Gibbed objects) 
Also, some traps and exploders do not function properly. Oh well.   
4. When I ran the level on my computer with Plasma pak in one of the higher res modes, 
(I have a K6-200 w/ 64k ram & Diamond Stealth 3D accelerator) some of the sounds cut out.
