Descent II Add-On Mission

Crazy Level 7 (Retro-Bution)

**Description**

This level is one of a set of missions designed by me (Luke Schneider)
for high quality anarchy play in Descent II.  All future anarchy levels
of my design will be released under the Crazy label.  Not only will 
this relieve some of my stress of having to think of a cool name for
every level I make (actually, they will have subtitles, like 
"Hydrophobia"), but it will also allow Descent II players everywhere
to immediately recognize my levels.  Hopefully that will be a good 
thing.  

As with the Panic Levels by Parallax, I am releasing one level per 
week.  This isn't as hard as it sounds, as each level only requires 
about 8 hours of work (plus some playtesting).  The strategy for each 
level will vary quite a bit as well as the texture themes.  

This weeks' selection
**Retro-Bution**

Remember the glory days of Descent I, back when men were men and you
could tell a good pilot by his laser shooting skills, not his ability
to hit the missile button to fire an Earthshaker?  Well they're back.
Almost.  The biggest weapon is one lowly Smart Missile.  Other than
the three new weaker missile types and a few super lasers (yet no 
quad laser), this level contains simple Descent I weapons.  An ideal 
dogfight area lies in the lower quarters while the top level provides 
classic hit and run fighting action.  A classic guerilla warfare has
been known to break out between players in the two different 
sections.

=Legal Jargon=
Actually I don't know the proper legal terms, but in short: You may
distribute this level in its entire form given you include this .TXT
file.  Please do not modify this level for redistribution.  Also, you
may not use this level for any commercial purposes without my express
written consent (I love that phrase).  

=The Author (Luke Schneider)=
This is my 7th completed Descent II level.  I have also created 12 
Descent levels.  For this level I used Devil 1.02 for the cube 
structure and Devil 2.1f for adding everything else.
