Title                   : The Gauntlet

Description             : The word Gauntlet, means: to carry out an action in spite
			of danger threatening on all sides. (As in running the gauntlet)
			This seemed more fitting for Quake deathmatch. I was originally 
			going to make this a DM4 sized level with one main big room and
			a brownish version of the DM4 textures. However the texture scheme
			looked like crap and the level itself just got bigger and bigger
			into its present form. The map has three main levels in most places. 
			The theme is futuristic yet anciect looking at times, (you'll see
			 what I mean). Some interesting	features in the level are: ladders
			(as close as your gonna get in Quake), floating weapons (trick 
			obtained from QuakeLab), a Quad	Damage warning light that allows 
			you to see at a glance if the Quad damage is there or not and a few 
			other things you'll notice as you play through the level. 
			
			Note: Reaper Bots do not respond well to the ladders but this 
			doesn't affect gameplay as they can still get to every area.
