Coven mod for Half-Life 2

INTRO
Coven is a multiplayer mod for Half-life 2 deathmatch.  It is born from Justin approaching Brenden to create a source-engine based successor to Vampire Slayer (Half-life 1 mod) infused with some Left 4 Dead versus mode action, since several of the other attempts fell through.  You will find that Coven is only loosely based on Vampire Slayer- Brenden has in fact never played the game.  Therefore, several of the very basic concepts are present... vampires, slayers, rounds, etc.  Moreover, the Coven team has set out with the attitude to make a great game based on Valve's source engine with vampires and slayers duking it out from the ground up... our ideas not necessarily being based on anything, or in other instances heavily borrowing from vampire lore.

SLAYERS
Slayers are arranged into four classes.  Each class has its own weapons, and a distinct maximum speed (all of which are slower than a Vampire).  Weapons are not dropped upon death.  Beware of ledges, as Slayers take substantial damage from falling.  There is no way to replenish ammo (exception UV light) and health is limited, so teamwork is essential for survival.  All slayers are equipped with a melee stake.  This stake can be used as a melee weapon, but is the only way to kill a Vampire permanently.  Once the vampire is dead, be sure to hit them with the stake to make sure they don't get back up.  All slayers also get 1 holy water grenade.  The Hellion gets more.

Avenger
Standard meatshield.  Average speed.  Carries a 9MM pistol and a 12 gauge pump action shotgun.
Hellion
Lightweight scout and expert at mischief.  Fastest speed.  Carries a 9MM pistol and a UV light cannon.  Gets extra holy water grenades.
Reaver
Close range tank, also somewhat effective at medium range.  Slow speed.  Carries a 12 gauge double barrel shotgun and an SMG.
Deadeye
Mid to long range support.  Great at immobilizing Vampires, collecting bodies, and countering campires.  Fast speed.  Carries a .357 magnum pistol and a harpoon gun.

WEAPONS
There are a few slight modifications to the classic Half-life 2 weapons.  None of the shotguns possess an alternate fire mode.

Stake
Basic meat poker.  Not the best way to dispatch Vampires, but the ONLY way to keep them dead.
9MM Pistol
Standard tiny pistol.  Relatively accurate at short to mid range.  Alternate fire is a burst fire mode.
.357 Magnum
Standard big pistol.  Very accurate.
12 Gauge Pump Action Shotgun
Has a six shot clip.  Packs a decent punch.
10 Gauge Double Barrel Shotgun
Very slow reload, but backs a close to mid range whallop.
UV Light Cannon
Emits a beam of intense UV light.  This light can uncloak sneaky vampires, push them away from you, or even burn them if they get too close.  Careful timing and aiming can even stop a leap.  Ammo cells will slowly regenerate over time, but not any extreme amount.
SMG (Submachine Gun)
Fires really fast.  Alternate fire mode is an accurate burst shot that can do quite a bit of damage.
Holy Water Grenade
Lob a holy grenade at vamps and watch them burn.  Hitting slayers (including yourself) causes a regenerative and protective aura.  Alt fire drinks a grenade to instantly restore a small amount of health.
Harpoon Gun
Shoots a deadly accurate bolt attached to you via a cable.  At long range, the bolts pack a good bit of damage.  At closer ranges, you will harpoon vampires instantly if you kill them.  Their bodies can be dragged around at your will.  Alternate fire will break the current bolt off of you.  Dead vampire bodies, as well as dead slayer bodies can also be harpooned and drug about.  Harpooned dead vampires cannot be kept dead indefinately, and will ressurect after a short duration.  Also, the harpoon gun can be used as a grappling hook for rappelling off buildings to prevent fall damage.
