*notes 
         This is more or less another but more complex version of marics78. There are three
        atriums and a bit more z-axis play in this one.
         
         This is a simple/bland map entirely made from terrain. I hope that the complexity
       of the brushwork offers enough detailing to make it interesting. Lighting was odd 
       due to the all natural bit, ergo the lava. The r's get a bit high in just a couple places
       but are still very playable.

    
      

       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

*INSTALLATION*

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