Mission notes

This is a level I originally made for the 40th "Descent 2 Revival" event in mid-late 2003. It was inspired by the boss room of D1 level 7, but in a shape that I felt would play more "fast and furious" to suit the kind of game the event's players would appreciate. It has a handful of secret gimmicks that I probably wouldn't reproduce nowadays, but hopefully they don't impact the gameplay too much.

Ideal size is probably 4-6 players, but if you like frantic games it should still be OK with 8.

While I've seen the level played now and then in the years since - to my surprise, admittedly - it's probably more notable for the Overload conversion I created. That was the first third-party (custom) level to be released for the game - initially as a Challenge Mode level, though later converted to multiplayer as well.
