 [Description] -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
================================================================================================================================

The War Is the Life was originally a Duke Nukem 3D mod in development by Kenneth Finegan circa 2000 that was unfortunately
abandoned and never released. After discovering some remnant images from its original website on Dukeworld that I had saved on
my computer, I decided to create a tribute weapons patch inspired by this project to keep this little bit of history alive!
I always love the challenge of trying to do cool and interesting things within a limited/restrictive environment, so I've opted
to make this specifically compatible with the original MS-DOS Atomic Edition release! I may add some optional additional eDuke32
features in the future. There was one other weapon sprite that I did not include due to a lack of weapon slots. Hope you enjoy!

================================================================================================================================
