Secrets

 * 1) When you go east through the first hall with shotgun guys, you will hear a something open. Look south through the cages and shoot the lion switch, then go back to the door you came from to discover steps leading down. Take them down to a room with a megaarmor. (sector 50)
 * 2) After taking the large lift down, head east to an area with skulls on the floors and wall, then go to the south wall and lower it to find a berserk pack (not on Hey, Not Too Rough or lower). (sector 136)
 * 3) Head south from that hall and open the door. Go down the steps and find the wall in the southeast corner with slime on it. Open it and take the steps down to a blur artifact. (sector 280)
 * 4) Go down two more sets of steps and head south when you can to a plasma gun. Press the lit gargoyle switch here to find a secret room with energy cells. (sector 268)
 * 5) After going through the Hellgrowth at the northwest end, enter the red building and open the door. Head east and use the red pillar with the skull, then backtrack to the west and find a switch that lowers the BFG9000. (sector 534)
 * 6) A blue-floored room at the northeast end of the map has three terminals. Use the west one (which has a symbol in front of it on the floor), then head northeast to get a soul sphere. (sector 823)
