Name of Mission: The Newest Threat
Description of Mission: 
	Are you ready for this one?  Strap in tight and get ready for one of the 
most stomach churning, mind bending, gut wrenching levels you've ever played.  
I've loaded this level with tons of cool stuff, including my crowning achievement, 
flowing lava!!!!! (looks real cool, I haven't seen any other levels with this 
feature so I'm assuming I'm the first.)  I even put in a room where the lava is 
"whirlpooling" through a tiny drain! Anyway hope you enjoy it. I spent lots 
of time adjusting everything to make it just right so it should look great.  
I tried not to make it too difficult but it gets pretty darn hard on the "ace" 
setting, and I haven't been able to beat it on "insane" yet (I did get half way 
through though). Also, I tried to keep multi-player in mind while making this 
level, even though I didn't make it specifically for anarchy or co-op. Drop me a 
line after you play it and tell me what you think. I want your input! 
Ok, now for the story: 
	Well as it turned out, more than just thirty mines were infested in the first 
invasion of the alien forces.  There were some smaller mines that were infested at 
the same time others, but the 'bots decided to take over these mines differently than 
the larger ones.  Because their defense in these mines was not as high as in the 
larger ones, they decided to lay low and continued to go about their routine tasks 
while secretly fortifying their position. Well it turns out that the PTMC didn't know 
the smaller mines were infested, so, trying to save a few billion dollars, they 
didn't get you to blow them up.
	After you rampaged through the solar system, destroying every mine the PTMC 
had told you about,  they kicked you out of the system. After you left, the 'bots 
in the mines surviving your first strike began to analyze your attack patterns, and 
they realized that the mines' main weakness, which you exploited each time, was the fusion 
reactor.  Upon realizing this, they secretly began construction on a geothermal 
power source, one that runs off the heat energy in lava, a resource they had in 
abundance.  This new generator, once completed, wouldn't be susceptible to meltdown 
like the original fusion reactor, thus the mine would be virtually indestructible.  
	Because the 'bots were still performing their routine tasks as well as constructing 
their new power station, their efficiency was compromised.  Because this mine was not 
turning much of a profit (something the PTMC did not tolerate), an investigation 
was conducted.  During the investigation, a PTMC official stumbled onto the 'bots 
secret project.  When the 'bots realized they had been discovered, they quickly took 
over the mine, even though their new generator had not been completed yet.  The PTMC 
panicked and quickly called you back to the solar system and explained the situation.  
Since the 'bots have sealed off the normal entry, you will be inserted into a small 
ventilation shaft that is believed to run straight to the reservoir of lava used to fuel their 
new power source.  Once inside, there should be a conduit sucking up lava and 
pumping it into their new generator. Use it to inflitrate their stronghold. Be sure to 
work quickly, it is only a matter of time before they take the fusion reactor off line, 
thereby making the mine practically invincible, therefore, it is imperative that you deal 
with the 'newest threat' to our solar system as quickly as possible.
	That will be all material defender, prepare for descent.

	Whew! That was one long text file! (sorry I got a little long-winded but 
I had a lot to say) You deserve a reward for reading all of that. I'm going to tell 
you a cool secret. There is a super duper secret area in the mine that I like to call 
"The Armory."  It's packed with everything you could ever want! (no I'm not telling 
you where it is) See if you can find it without cheating! ;)
