Map of The Ashen Steppe

Letters in italics refer to marked spots on the map. Sector, thing, and linedef numbers in boldface are secrets which count toward the end-of-level tally.

Secrets

1. Southeast of the start, you can pick up a chaingun. (sector 80)
2. Take the path south of the starting point, then east to get elemental wand ammo. (thing 38)
3. Head east of Secret #2 to the health bonuses and get a rocket launcher to the south. (sector 1146)
4. At the northwest end, go southwest to a cave that has a soul sphere. (sector 17064)
5. Enter the main building and go to the chaingun and shotgun shells. Look up at the east compartment and look for a green button. Shoot it to lower bars to the south that lead to boxes of rockets. (linedef 21798 via script "secret secrets" and "secret trigger" thing 2261)
6. Head southwest of the east hub. Go southeast to the dead end with rockets, then use the inverted red cross to lower the pillar with an energy cell pack. (sector 12825)
7. Continue to the center of the area past Secret #6 to the plasma gun. When the lift lowers to the bottom, go to the lava at the southeast end. Press the button and head a bit west and south to get elemental wand ammo. (sector 3093)
