MAP16: The Chapel of Black Granite II is the sixth bonus map of Hell Revealations. It was designed by Jeff Banks (Pottus) and uses the music track "Benzin" by Rammstein. The par time is 18:00.

Description

According to the Hell Revealations infopack:

The Chapel Of Black Granite II was built around the same time as The Path III. The original map in Hell Revealed II was one of my favorites in the wad and is the main reason I decided to make this Map. Like the original there is still the same zeal of crudeness throughout the Map, liberating this architectural style is a strong focus on map layout. The playthrough is mostly linear but will keep you wanting to explore more and it won't take long to realize how evil the Chapel really is!

Size: Long

Difficulty: Corridors

Walkthrough

Map of The Chapel of Black Granite II

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. In the starting area, open the southwest demon face to get a backpack. (sector 659)
2. In the east hall, you will see a soul sphere to the west. Shoot the fence behind it to open a wall to reach it. (sector 42)
3. After pressing the easternmost switch, return to the north hub to find the southeast closet is open. Inside is a box of rockets, (two on Ultra-Violence or higher) and a rocket launcher. (sector 654)
4. Press the switch that lowers the red key, then open the wall behind the switch to get a megasphere. (sector 416)
5. Head back to the north hub and enter the southwest compartment to find energy cell packs and a BFG9000. (sector 368)
6. In the blue key area, head to the southeast switch and use the gray wall southwest of it to find lots of ammo, medikits, and a megaarmor in two cages. (sector 278)

Bugs

A pulverizer (Thing 772), and megasphere (807), and two backpacks (774 and 775) – all multiplayer-only – have no flags set for any of the three difficulty classes, so they do not actually appear in the level.
