           absolutely great program due to its accessibility and ease of use.

*notes 
        This is a castle themed desert thing... I don't know, it just is. There are two version
        m71a for Awakening and marics71 for everything else.
        There are a load of double jups and semi-trick jumps here and there. The three that seem
        to work out well in-game are all in the larger of the two open areas and use the lights
        near all three sets of stairs.

       The weapons as has been my habit lately are "over the top"
        and that is just the way we like things on "Backshooters" 
        our servers are at 207.114.0.70
        oue web site is here  www.backshooters.com  


*INSTALLATION*

       if you got this zip file intact just aim this puppy at your baseq2
               folder and let 'er rip.
