Misc. Author Info     : Team M:Impossible is or was a shakey alliance between 
			three of the greatest map builders of all time whose
			goal was to pull together in their finest hour to 
			construct this insanely good DM level as part of
			JS`s Community Build Project. Nice.
  
Other Levels          : This is the first (and most likely only) level from 
			M:Impossible 

Description           : Turfwarz takes place a deserted, anonymous street in downtown
LA.
			This scrap of urban decay is the battleground of two rival gangs,
			the Red Wings (who control the local subway station) and the Blue
			Cowboys (who operate a breakers yard). Naturally their respective
			bases are mere fronts for the illecit activity which goes on in them,
			but now both gangs have decided that they want more. After holding a 
			council in a nearby hotel, the gangs have declared war on each other.

			Each of the sides now engages in a battle for supremacy on the mean
			streets - fighting first for the control of nearby establishments,
			followed up by an all out attack on the rival gang`s base. Do you
			have what it takes to survive?

=====================================================================================

Playing Turfwarz:

Turfwarz has a number of unique locations and rules which must be described; and
understood by all players. The level has three basic locations - The Red Wing`s base

which is the subway at the Southern end of the street; the Blue Cowboy`s
base which is in the garage at the North End. Finally there is the street itself,
which 
has a bookstore, pawnshop and pharmacy on it among other things. In addition there is
a 
respawn area which is a hotel room, and has instant access to both bases.  

Both bases have an armoury and a control centre - which allows doors to be locked,
lights
to be turned on and also a security camera network. It is also the location of the
team`s
safe.

The Pawnshop contains a shotgun and an RPG. However, the RPG can only be accessed
from somewhere 
in the bookstore. You`ll also have to work out how to get into the bookstore first.
The Pharmacy contains enough health for almost a full boost, and also a drinking
fountain. 
However, there is also a special "panic" button which brings down protective barriers
over
the door and window if a player wishes to slowly heal himself with the fountain. The
downside
is of course that he is effectively out of play. 

Rules			: Turfwarz has a number of rules which MUST be obeyed!

			1 - Before the game starts choose who is going to be on each
			side (gang) - and make a note of all the gang members colours.
			This is best done in the respawning room. It is best to pick
			sides and then line up so everyone can see who is on each side.
			Use the talk feature to make sure everyone understands. Then both 
			teams deploy in their bases. They have one minute with which to 
			prepare, after which player one gives the command for the game to 
			start.

			2 - Once the game is underway players are pretty much free to do
			as they wish, whether it be kill the enemy or capture their stash.
			To capture their stash, a team must move into the other player`s 
			control room and blow their safe up. Inside the safe is a switch
			to represent the stash, and when this is flicked signs go up 
			in the street declaring the winning team. 

			3 - If players die they appear back in the respawn room, and to get 
			back into the game they must use the switch next to the door which
			leads to their base. It is absolutely NOT permissable to touch the switch
			belonging to the other team base, nor can you attack players in this 
			room - it is effectivly a neutral space. For comfort while you
			wait for your mates you could take it easy with a beer and a magazine,
			watch some TV or listen to music.
			 
			
Tips			: 1 - You`ll notice that there is a slight imbalance in the bases and 
			weapons. The Red Wings have a base which is easy to defend, but their
			armoury contains mostly short range assault weapons - making them the 
			ideal attacking force. The Blue Cowboys have a base which is a little
			harder to defend but they also have better long range weapons, so
			they are advised to defend their base before making a counter attack
			at the weakened Red Wings base.
			
			2 - Fight to control the street before moving in on a base. This
			ensures that while you attack them they can`t be attacking you.
		
			3 - Hide in shadows. There`s loads of them. You`ll also notice some
			excellent places for camping to guard entrances to the bases - 
			be sure to exploit them.
		
			4 - NEVER enter the enemy base without support. Cracking the code
			to the safe takes several seconds of focused aiming even if you
			get it right first time - far too easy for a rogue guard to pop
			in and frag you. Far better to have one or two team mates to cover 
			door while the safecracker does his stuff. Some weapons are better
			than others for this task. Equally try and have at least on guard in 
			or around the control room.
 
			5 - Use cover at all times when in the street. And watch your back!  			 

Credits			: Blackjack, the team leader of M:Impossible is responsible
			 for the street battleground, as well as the initial ideas and the
			 Turfwars game. He also co-ordinated (with mixed success) the
			 development of the project. Which has taken around 6 months.  

			 Maarten Pinxton is responsible for Honest Hank`s Garage AND 
			 all the art. Maarten was at times the only one to hold this project 
			 together, and even I am amazed at the speed at which he can create 
			 quality level building. A top job from a top mapper.
			 
			 Chris Alcock had a late start in this project because C3P0 was
			 orginally the third team member but nothing really got done. As
			 a result the team came to a mutual descision to drop C3P0 and
			 get another mapper on board. Chris fitted the bill and within a 
			 few short weeks (in between getting massively drunk at Christmas)
			 created the Subway section.
