Story:
------
Well, this is a small (and I mean small) add-on for Halfquake Amen. We had 
the idea to do it because we were all visiting MS and we thought some output
just had to be there.
Besides, Halfquake had its one year birthday (this mini-mod was actually 
meant to be released at the birthday, but we weren't able to do that)
and so it should remind all players and fans of the original Mod.
