Reviews:

Doomkid	One of the most overplayed maps in deathmatch history, but it IS very well designed. If you want to be in a tournament, practice here, because there's a 100% chance of it being on any tourney maplist. Map22 (the filler map Brian mentions in the description) looks like the start to a decent SP/Coop map, but would be tedious as hell in Deathmatch.	x
Anonymous	An absolute classic in doom deathmatch. This map requires a lot of brainwork while playing, and very fast paced. If you a Duel player who likes hard challenges, careful, both smart and technical play, then this map is for you. Absolutely legendary. - Bpy6[iddqd]	x

* A Few Things... *

Judas23 is a "small but tall" PWAD.  I wanted to make a fairly small
level that would facilitate 3-D action.  Three players are ideal for a fast
game, but any number of players generally yield frantic matches.  A monster
is included free of charge (see below), and here's the difficulty settings
layout:
        
      - Skill 1/2:  Includes shotguns, chainguns, rocket launchers.            
        
      - Skill 3:    Includes shotguns, supershotguns, chainguns, rocket 
                    launchers.

- Skill 4/5:  Includes shotguns, supershotguns, chainguns, rocket
                    launchers, plasma rifle, BFG9000.
        
        Frankly, this pwad was designed for Original (v1.0) Deathmatch Rules.
I didn't make any provisions for ALTDEATH (v2.0) play - no health, no ammo, 
no powerups - as this level is fairly impractical for that style of play.

I've added a "filler" level BEFORE Map23 - this is to fill the
void where Judas22 should be (judas22.wad is a DeathTag level and currently
occupies Map01).  If I ever get five Judas PWADs created, I'll release a
concatenation called judas1.wad in which (hopefully) I'll include a brand new
level for Map22.  However, in this case Map22 is a slightly modified (the
cooperative exit has been removed) version of igor9.wad Map06.

Once again I've included monster support - a monster is placed
"strategically" to add spice to the game (he gets in the way and pisses you
off).  If you like monsters in your matches, BE SURE TO INCLUDE THE RESPAWN
OPTION.
        The exit should be obvious.
        
        Enjoy Judas23...
