I didn't use my standard pattern to do this level, so it is a bit messy. MAP15 - Authenticated at start. Not that tough. I kept getting 98% kills because I did not know about the Hell Knight hidden in the right-hand cidatel (in the center of the stairs). So, I did this level a few times before I finally got the last 2% of kills. For some reason, I just could not get the timing down on MAP23. So, after getting really bored with it, I decided to do something that I never thought I'd do. I used the appeal mechanism to exchange MAP23 for three other "harder" levels. My replacements were MAP18 from the HARD set and MAP13 & MAP20 from the HARDEST set. I'd have done MAP24 instead of MAP18, but MAP18 is just so fun to do. MAP13 - Authenticated at the start (backed into the alley). This one only took a few tries. I thought it was the easiest of the three "HARDER" levels. But, then I finished MAP20 in one try... Must have improved since the last time I played through DOOM2 (last November). MAP18 - Authenticated immediately and then out onto the bricks to kill Imps. I wandered about a bit too much on this one toward the end because my children were climbing on me and distracting me, so I forgot my objectives quite a bit. MAP20 - Authenticated after killing off the few monsters outside of the big building. I let the Imp inside the tower kill of the Sergeant. After that, it was just slogging through it. I missed on secret (the battery next to the big rising door). This was my original free interpretation level. But, when I finished it on my first practice run, I figured I'd make it part of the appeal since it is one of the HARDEST levels. (I used to think it was, but now I have my doubts). This is the Free Interpetation level. MAP19 - Authenticated after killing off the free radical monsters (Imps, Sergeants and the Plasma Spider). This was going to be just a replacement for 23, but I made a mistake and dropped down a hole into the herd of Spectres with just my fists out. Amazingly, I killed all of them. So, I figured I'd make this amazing feat my free interpretation and see if it would amaze anyone else. Besides, I'm really tired of seeing the endless permutation of level 32. I respect everyone who does it, but it's just been done to death. So, here's something much longer and perhaps instructional for those who might be stuck on this level.
