Additional Information:
----------------------
This map is intended for single player skirmish missions only. It may still function in multiplayer although
there was only one spawn point placed. Please use the multiplayer version, sk_valleyofdeath instead.
This map is an endless skirmish, although you can end the level after you find and destroy the 3 alien queens.
The predator ammo boxes will fully heal you.
