Description : The story continues in the Town of Illhaven. All you need to
do is find your way to The Black Raven Inn. From
there you will find your way. In an effort to avoid a mindless
"shooter" map, I have endeavoured to incorporate a Quest, of sorts,
which culminates in a unique "Boss" situation. At the same time,
I hope you might enjoy the Town part of the map as some kind of
relief from violence for the sake of it. Watch the patrols and
antics of the Krall........ Except for a couple, you don't have
to kill them. I kinda got attached to these guys with all their
patrols and working with them, etc. (Got personal with names etc)

In any event, enjoy it. Part III of the Illhaven series will follow
unless and until I get some offer of a contract for more professional work!

Additional Credits to : Everyone at Epic. Cool tools in UnrealEd.

* Construction *

Base : New level from scratch
circa 1400 brushes
32 Zones

Build time : 2 weeks
Editor used : UnrealED
Known Bugs : None that I've seen... But due to the complexity of
building a Town that climbs upwards and around the
Unreal engine is pushed to its limit and you might
find a "blip" or two here and there. Zoning this map
was not easy. I have endeavoured to get the best possible
balance both speed and visually. But nothing is ever
perfect!

Installation and play : Download the map and dbl-click on it.

You MAY distribute this map, provided you include this file, with
no modifications. You may distribute this file in any electronic
format (BBS, Diskette, CD, etc) as long as you include this file

With the sole and specific exception of Unreal Action, who had little good to say
about Illhaven I ("Return to Illhaven") despite its acclamation elsewhere,
all websites may publish and review this map.
The more people who enjoy it the better.

Thanks folks. Have fun. Play it by candlelight......

And - don't forget to pick up a copy of Wheel of Time when it's out - SOON.
