Description of the Modification
-------------------------------
This modifies the super shotgun so that it spews forth poisonous
clouds of yellow gas.  The clouds fly slowly and vanish after
four seconds, so its range is short.  Each cloud can inflict
over 150 points of damage.  The cloud can partially penetrate
walls and damage targets who hide behind them.  It is easy to
damage yourself with this weapon so be careful.  A bio-suit
provides immunity to the cloud.  Each cloud costs two shells.


How to Install the Modification
-------------------------------
* Create a subdirectory called BREATH within the QUAKE directory.

  subdirectory.
