* Author's Notes *

This is my fourth Worldcraft effort, this time thinking purely in
terms of deathmatch gameplay. I had the idea of placing the players
in cages lifted above a ring-like floor where they could pickup both
200 health and armor and then jump to the floor to begin a feverish
battle in an open space surrounded by a shallow slime area. The idea
turned out to provide what I believe to be excellent gameplay, but in
testing with Reaper bots (who love this level!) I wanted to create a
place for the Pentagram which could allow a player to decend upon the
ring to take on whomever was "in control" of the ring. This has been
accomplished by placement of a tall "spire" in the center of the ring
with four deathmatch start positions at its top making it so that any
player would have an excellent chance to appear here to pickup the
Pentagram and challenge the player(s) in the ring.

If you have Reaper bot, place the RINGKING.BSP in the Reaper Bot's map
directory and place the RINGKING.DEM in the Reaper Bot's home directory
and load up Reaper Bot, then from the Quake console type the command
PLAYDEMO RINGKING [ENTER] to watch the short demo of the Reaper Bot match
in this level. You can place the RINGKING.BSP in your QUAKE\ID1\MAPS
directory and place the RINGKING.DEM in the QUAKE\ID1 directory and watch
the demo as well, but if you enjoy playing Reaper bots with skins, or
would like see the demo's "CameraMan" follow this one Reaper Bot which
pretty much cleans up on this demo, I suggest loading it up in the Reaper
Bot directory with a skins file made available to the bots.

Enjoy!
