****************Greetings To All Doomers Around The World!******************* My Name is GEEZUS CRICED. A fellow doomer currently known as Medic suggested that all you frag festin' doomers could use a QUALITY packet of great death match levels for Doom II to bide your time. Since H2H is the best place to be a Doomer, we have dedicated to H2H Doomers this assembly of some of the best levels (one of which just happens to be mine) ever made for death match. At H2H we play Doom II way too much, and therefore we take Doom VERY seriously. AND THIS WAD IS SERIOUSLY FUN! :) Only a few H2H wads actually made the cuts for this compilation. The text files linked to each wad ARE INCLUDED in txtfiles.zip for the glory of each & every wad author who contributed. If any text files are missing, we somehow never got them. Pavel Hodek, Mal Blackwell, & Mark Gresbach Jr. all built two levels which made the grade for this wad. Congradulations to them & all the authors who made these 19 levels; selected from among the thousands that are out there in cyberspace. Nine of the levels were extracted from AJE-CMBO.WAD, by Aaron J. Edwards. A few levels were slighlty modified by me for compatibility, and better deathmatch playablility, but most were not touched. OK honestly, I spent a lot of time on most of these levels to fix various bugs with line defs, & enable good single & co-op playability. I realize some of the authors may be upset with some changes, but that's why their own versions are available as a stand alone level! Oh, I didnt fix H2HCHRCH bugs because I tried & it didnt play any faster at all & a verticle line developed, I will fix later & maybe re-release as a stand alone level. Many of these levels are popular but may not have even been seen by H2H doomers prior to the release of this wad. But beware! Dwango DORKS & Doomers abroad we will know these levels well & we challenge you to logon TO H2H with this wad in hand and experience feast or famine, HEAD 2 HEAD! H2H HAS DECLARED WAR ON THE WORLD ON ALT.GAMES.DOOM. COME 'N GET IT! The H2H WOODEN DOORS & H2H SKY, & TITLESCREEN were ALL MODIFIED by GEEZUS The sky texture is one I actually had planned to use in my next wad which was only about 20% done at the time of the release for this wad. The names of the wads, their level numbers are as follows: (See individual text files in txtfiles.zip for e-mail addresses of authors) NAME LEVEL AUTHOR TOMBSTN 1 Jay DOGG H2HCHRCH 2 GEEZUS CRICED me me me me me H2HCZEK1 3 PAVEL HODEK SHOTGUN3 4 ROCKT and ASMO D9-2 5 MAL BLACKWELL H2HLOTH1 6 Lothar NEW7 7 Brian Monroe H2HCZAR2 8 PAVEL HODEK FRAGSQR 9 ?

My only regret is that none of the levels in this wad were made by Dave Swift, who is probably the best wad author I know of anywhere. The custom textures Dave uses would have conflicted with many of the levels & slowed play. :( ***************************COPYRIGHTS & PERMISSIONS*************************** YOU MAY FREELY DISTRIBUTE H2HCOMBO.ZIP ONLY WITH ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL ARCHIVES INTACT.
