================================================================



*When I first played Heretic2, I fell in love right away with the halberd,
 which was my weapon of choice when I played UO.After making dmskelter, I
 decided to make a "Bladematch" map.The design is simple, an arena built 
 to accomodate anywhere from two to 10 players, the main action takes place
 inside a cavernous building.

 Only blades will be used and tolerated, flying kicks are encouraged.
 Violators will be impressed by the gymnastic abilities of the Blade
 users right before they are chopped in two.

 There are two blade shrines, 2 heal shrines, health bottles and vials ,
 a few defensive mana packs and maybe a surprise or two.
