Misc. Author Info       : My first map for the Doom series.  Having no
                          prior experience, I felt that the best way to
                          learn the engine and editors would be to
                          re-imagine (de-imagine?) one of my favourite
                          free-for-all maps from the Unreal series, Deck16.
                           The only restrictions that I placed on myself
                          while learning was that I would limit myself to
                          the same engine abilities that authors 10 years
                          ago would have had.  I'd guess that this map
                          would likely work on vanilla doom.exe, but I'm
                          not 100% on that.

Description             : "The team of engineers and construction
                          personnel behind the deathmatch facility Deck16
                          were but a wet spot in their parents' bed when
                          the sounds of plasma cannons and rocket launchers
                          were echoing the dark corridors of Deck1!"

                          unreleased midis from Doom 1 and 2, of which I
                          used one of the tracks.
