Mars Needs Women is one of the ten network levels in Marathon.
Description[]
Mars Needs Women is a medium sized netmap with multiple corridors that define the edges and a large central room with several ledges at varying heights. In addition to the central room there are two other medium sized rooms, one in the northwest section and one in the northeast area.
Controlling the upper areas of the map will grant access to the Hypervision power-up and enable the player shoot down on any players entering the central area.
The TOZT-7 Backpack Napalm Unit will spawn in the northern-most part of the map and can extremely be powerful given this map's general lack of large open spaces.
Just south of the TOZT-7 Backpack Napalm Unit is a hidden door that leads to the SPNKR SSM Launcher and three switches that control the lights in the central area. Although there is only one path in and out of the secret area, the SPNKR SSM Launcher is close to the entrance.
If you are careful while falling down the dropshaft you can stand on the small lip and shoot at anybody who runs below or falls down without noticing you.
Trivia[]
- This name of this level is taken directly from the title of a 1967 science fiction movie.
