Twilight Warrior

Twilight Warrior is a tactical military Doom II total conversion created by Black Shadow Software that requires source port Doom Legacy. The initial November 15, 1998 release hosted on Doomworld was followed by a v1.01 upgrade on December 20, 1998.

Covert Operations, a remake for EDGE, was released by Black Shadow Software in 2000 and it reuses many of the Twilight Warrior resources.

Story
The WAD places the protagonist in a secret military unit called Global Counter-Terrorist Operations (GCTO). As a "Twilight Warrior" the player is a Special Forces soldier without rank or identity. The WAD includes a file briefing.txt that contains a mission briefing for each of the 10 new levels. Missions include base infiltration/clearance, hostage rescues, and an ordered assassination.

 * Jungle grunt
 * Desert grunt
 * Bazooka guy
 * Special forces commando
 * Helicopter gunship (graphic and sounds from All Hell is Breaking Loose)
 * Assassination target

Hostages
MAP03, MAP05, MAP07, and MAP09 contain friendly hostages that must be rescued from capture. By using DeHackEd's Icon of Sin BrainDie codepointer, if any hostage dies in crossfire the level immediately ends and the next level will begin. A similar effect appeared in Sidearm Joe's Hostage Rescue 3 WAD released in January 1998.

The onscreen display of the new weapons are angled, similar to Duke Nukem 3D.
