--Background Information--
I play RTCW with my friends at work. We love it. However, we rarely had more than 4
players per team. Because of this, some of the official maps (as well as most
downloaded ones) seemed too large for a smaller group like ours. They ended up
becoming FPR's (First Person Runners), as a coworker once put it. I therefore
decided to design a level that would better accommodate smaller numbers of people.
And thus, Das Raetsel was born.

Das Raetsel is German for "The Enigma" which is the objective in this map. (Yes I
know it was done in U-571, but using "The Documents" as an objective seemed rather
routine...)

This is my first completed map for a Quake3-based game. So, if it appears that parts
of it were <ahem> "inspired" by other maps, you'd be right. Still, this was mostly a
learning process for me. The next map(s) will deviate more from pre-existing ones.


--Map Information--
Multiplayer map for Return to Castle Wolfenstein.

Allies are attempting to infiltrate an Axis base. Inside, they must steal and escape
with the Enigma Machine. See the in-game briefing menu for more information.
