Anonymous	A simple classic practice map. See levels/doom/a-c/cybr deth.zip for my full comment. Arguably it's more useful as practice against Cyberdemons than as a DM level, nowadays. ~Chain Mail [3/5] (11/2007)	x
Anonymous	Basically a big square room with lots of pillars dotted around. Some of the pillars have secret doors in them but they aren't marked, so you'd never find them. As a single-player level there are just enough rockets and plasma cells to kill five of the six cyberdemons and thirty or forty shotgun shells will kill what remains of the sixth, if you don't miss, but it's tedious.	x

This is rev "A" of CYBRDETH.WAD. Two v1.666 demos have been added.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
"Cyber Death [CYBRDETH.WAD]" is an outdoor "arena" style  DeathMatch
PWAD; DeathMatch on this level is intended to be played with the
-NOMONSTERS switch. The level has hidden teleporters & bonuses placed
specifically for DeathMatch, tons of large pillars scattered randomly
about, four weapon depots, and an open area in the middle (where most
of the fighting will probably occur).

For single play, it should be a true test of your Doom maneuverability 
skills because, depending upon the skill setting, there are *numerous* 
CyberDemons and limited ammo. There is *always* enough ammo to finish 
the Cybers, but you will probably be forced to shotgun the last few.
Hehe... If you can't get 100% kills on skill 3, you're not worthy!! If 
you can get 100% kills on skill 4, you can rest assured that you are 
one of the few. It's a good way to practice for DeathMatches too, 
because it will force you to conserve ammo and to take better [faster] 
aim, while perfecting maneuvers like the COD. *PLUS* it should help 
some of you "CyberPhobic" people get over your problem by making you 
face your fears.

Some of you are saying "More than one CyberDemon!? That's just stupid!". 
To that, I say: "You *wimps*... er... uh... I mean, try the level for 
DeathMatch then; you'll never even have to see a CyberDemon". The 
reason that I put so many Cybers in there for single play was to give 
myself a warm up for DeathMatches and also because I find it somewhat 
entertaining to go head-to-head with six CyberDemons (that's on skills 
4 & 5, on skill 3 there are 3 Cybers, and on skills 1 & 2 there is only 
one Cyber, which even my dog Fido can beat!). Your opinion on the 
entertainment value of dancing with 6 CyberDemons may vary slightly 
from my own.

For a hilarious & hair raising DeathMatch, try fighting your opponent 
with a few Cybers strolling around the level (is it me, or do they 
always seem to team up with the other guy!?).

Some things that people have said while playing CYBRDETH.WAD:

"OH @%&*!!"
 "Where in the %&*@ are all of the weapons!?"
 "Uh...why am I on the ground? The level just started!"
 "*WAY* to skimpy on the ammo!"
 "Did I  just get Teleporter Fragged?"
 "Victorious in battle, only to be pummeled to death at the end..."
 "I thought that I was good, but..."
 "Christ!! They're everywhere!"

Two demos of have been embedded into the PWAD. To watch them, simply
load CYBRDETH.WAD into Doom and let the game sit for a few seconds and
they will start to play automatically. The first is on skill 3 with 100%
kills, the second is on skill 4 (against 6 CyberDemons) with 100% kills.
