Review by Kim Robinson on 2nd August 2007
A large, absorbing map from our man Fernando, Asteroid Stronghold is the second secret level in his Orbital Oblivion episode, and one that'll surely keep you entertained. It has a widely unexplored theme, taking place in what essentially amounts to an alien infestation of a good ol' Terran moon base. The vast cavernous area looks a bit daunting at first, but stick in there, there's plenty more baddies once you get those doors unlocked. Featuring great gameplay, non-stop action and effects galore, Asteroid Stronghold is a fine addition to the map archives.

Secret level 2. After finding the aliens' secret room on the base, Duke activates a trigger which blows up a large amount of terrain, floating around the sun and deforming the moonbase. Now he realizes it was no accident as he hears tremendous pain roars from unfortunate aliens who were involved in this plot. With anything but luck and a possible return to the base, Duke bents to explore the asteroid to find a way to get out of the floating mass, if he can and find 'it'. Description : Large moon-themed level with four separate sectors (which were blown up as well from the moonbase) around the corners of the map. ====================================================================== * Play Information * Episode and Level # : E2L11 Single Player : Yes DukeMatch 2-8 Player : Yes Cooperative 2-8 Player : Yes Difficulty Settings : Yes Plutonium Pak Required : No New Art : No New Music : Yes New Sound Effects : No New .CON Files : No Demos Replaced : No ===================================================================== * Construction * Base : New level from scratch Level Editor(s) Used : BUILD Art Editor(s) Used : None Construction Time : Two and a half weeks Known Bugs/Problems : None ===================================================================== *Important Information* Installation : Copy ASTEROID.MAP file into your Duke3d root folder.
