Known bugs              : 1) Small bsp error in the fireplace of one of the nali houses (that's what I get for
				 copying brushes).
			  2) If you play in single player mode, you can't save your place in the map unless you
				 change the default game type (using the Unreal editor) to SinglePlayer from that of CoopGame
				 (Options/Level Properties/LevelInfo/DefaultGameType/Class'UnrealShare.SinglePlayer').
			  3) The polygon/node count gets very high when at the top of the map and looking down into
				 the valley, which tends to drop the fps count and can cause a gpf on some slower
				 computers (especially with older video cards).  This tends to be more of a problem on
				 Unreal, but not so much on Unreal Tournament.
			  4) I used the 226f patch for Unreal, so if you play this map on Unreal, you can't play it using
				 225 (you can get the 226f patch from http://unreal-thrasher.com/)
Player Count		:10-20

--- Plot ---
You find yourself at the base of Skaarj Valley, and it is in your best interest to find a way out of the valley.  
A friendly life force made it out of the hostile valley and left notes as to what they saw and used to escape,
which you can use to help make your escape.  In the heart of SKaarj Valley is the dreaded Skaarj Castle, which
sits atop of a massive land mass In the center of Valley.  This castle is host to all types of dreaded skaarj that
are just itching for a fight, as are all of the skaarj in Skaarj Valley.
================================================================
--- Tips ---
Read all of the translator messages given to you to help guide you through the map.  There are not many, so it is not
that much work, but almost all of them are important.
The tunnels are a challenging maze.  Once you find a stone, it then drops a wall to reveal another tunnel to another
stone.  Once all 7 stones are found, you can then search for the exit.  You will have to travel through the same tunnels
serveral times while finding the stones.
This is a big map, with a lot of work to do before the end will be presented (map takes you to nyleve once it is finished).
So, take your time, explore thoroughly, and do not expect to finish the map in a few hours.  The map is set up for coop,
so help from fellow players will speed things up quite a bit.  The map is also set up so you can't cheat by skipping steps
in the map (e.g. using jump boots to get into the fortess).
