E1M8: Transport Facility (Doom the Way id Did)

E1M8: Transport Facility is the eighth and final map of Knee-Deep in the Dead in Doom the Way id Did. It was designed by Jacob Zuchowski (ellmo) in the style of Sandy Petersen and features a boss battle with either two or three barons of hell, depending on the skill level.

Essentials
From the starting room head through the door. On ground floor, you can go through the tunnel if you choose, or you can go up the elevator. If you go through the tunnel here, a path branching left leads to a shotgun and ammo, plus a switch which opens up one of the secrets. At the end (the lights will glow) is a door leading to the main area. A secret here holds a rocket launcher, and it is recommended that you get one for the bosses. If you plan on taking the upper route, use the elevator, then climb the stairs and jump across to the other end of the balcony. You can grab a few health bonuses here, and if you pressed the switch previously, you will be able to access a soul sphere. Otherwise, take the door to the northeast. In front of you lies an armor and in the side areas lies a chaingun, ammo, and a backpack. Take all that is needed then enter the door at the end of the path. In this main room you will have to first deal with imps, spectres and demons. When you are ready, head around the structure to the south and flip the switch there. This lowers the structure, and in the middle is an evil eye. Approach this eye to reveal three barons around you. When you kill them, the northern wall collapses. You will see a staircase leading down to a demonic pentagram teleporter. Enter this one, and invisible forces will chop you up as the level ends.
