MAP01: Breakout (DBP01: Monuments of Mars)

MAP01: Breakout is the first map of DBP01: Monuments of Mars. It was designed by Jon Vail (40oz) and uses the music track "Warsword.midi" from Speed of Doom, composed by James Paddock.

Essentials
From the start, head left and descend the elevator into the open pit. Straight ahead is a switch which will reveal a flight of stairs to your west. Ascend the stairs and proceed clockwise around the rim of the pit until you reach an opening on your left between two raised platforms, each with a Hell knight standing atop. Head through this gap and take the stairs on your right.

Follow this ascending path counter-clockwise to reach the top of the westernmost platform. You can reach the east platform by running across the gap (strafe running is unnecessary). Go straight ahead through the door to reach the exit switch, though be wary of the three Hell knights who will emerge from the pit before the door.

Other points of interest
On the northwest side of the southern pit is a platform holding three boxes of bullets and, above that, a column holding two medikits. All of these can be easily obtained simply by falling onto them from the top of the pit.

Secrets
