Oh wow, I loved every minute of this level! I guess my only gripe was the low ceilings, but everything else was great!

In the words of C3PO:

Goodness gracious me!

This has to be one of the coolest SP episodes I've ever seen! There are so many little twists and additions to the gameplay, so many innovations. If you have MotS then you simply must download this.

I thought the voices were superb, especially for the Emporor and for Vader/Mohc.

I noticed a little bug, you can step through the force field and push Jan out, but that was very minor. Also I think it needed more health/shield powerups, unless I missed any.

But anyway, suberb work AK.

This Level is the best level that I have ever played on Jk or MOTS you have to download this level.This level is absolutely perfect.(Lead the MR-14 under the power beam on the ceiling behind Jans happy thoughts machine and shoot the bea down)

This has got to be the one of the best levels, especially in terms of storyline. I was glued to the screen towards the end, really good twist. However, I kinda would have liked to fight Darth Vadar at the end I thought that might happen when he appeared as Kyle was taking off with Jan.(no force powers though). Anyway, great new level, wish more were like this. A good storyline sure does help.

They have General Rom Moch in Dark Forces 1. That is what they meant in the level credit saying Kyle Katarn will return. If you don't have the Original DF1 get it now! it is excellent.

I totally agree with all the comments posted so far. This is to put it simply the BEST single player level currently available for Jedi Knight. It is superbly designed with fantastic features including full speach cutscenes!!! and a great new robot enemy. Download this or forever regret not doing so. Great job!!!

This level proves that you dont have to have lightsabers and forse powers for a good level. Its also made me think about buying the original Dark Forses! A good level, with good cutscenes (nice voises!). Well done for the whole trilogey!

This series of levels is one of the greatest i have ever downloaded, the 3rd is the best. Great voices for Darth and the emperor and my only complaint is that its kinda duff when you can push jan out the force field, it mixed me up and i didnt know what to do (I ended up trying to push her body to the door..) Apart from that, great level, on another level from most of the sp levels posted.

I hope I'm not abusing the commenting system here.

Thanks a lot for the comments guys. The pushing Jan out was a bug, and I have no idea how it was generated, the forcefield definately used to be non walkthroughable. Another bug that people have been experiencing on lower end systems, or if they have low system resources is that Kyle will get stuck in that room with Nibo at the start. I'm currently working on a series re-release. All three levels in one episode download, complete with various improvements and bug fixes. Those two bugs that I mentioned for level three will be fixed, and I will appreciate any other bugs that people will report.

I also highly recommend that you play the other two first.

Once again sorry to Massassi, if I abused the commenting system, but I found this one of the best ways to get the message accross.

I was just thinking about all the good levels i have downloaded from massasi and recently ive noticed that theyve all been made by Anthony Piggot. Search for Leia, BoaM, The Obi-wan vs Darth are all damn good levels. I even noticed he helped out in making the pretty good Menace hunt. So i just want to say, nice one Anthony, and keep making damn good levels that are actually worth downloading.

Well i made a long comment at the first level. But since everybody has been writing i decided to add more. LOL. Um I still think there should be a lot more health packs and shield recharges. (im not even sure if there were any) Well just thought to tell you so you add them in this revised edition thing! And yes the rancor thingie kill thing was excelent!

Wow, that is all i have to say, wow. This is an exceptional serieres of levels. The storyline is probobly better than the main story line of MoTS, of course, the main story line for MOTS is kind of lame. This level series surpassses them all. One question though, how the heck do you kill the MR-14??? I had a thought cross my mind after i was killed for the quinteinth trillon time, "Maybe it is invincible, and this is a big mean joke" but you wouldnt do that to us, now would you? well, maybe you would, but i can not think of anything else to try on that mettallic heathen. well, if anyone would care to tell, just post it.

oops, silly me, that was quite an ingenious way to kill the MR-14, sorry i have annoyed everyone with my incompetence. Oh yeah, and i had that same problem at the begining, you are stuck in a big black room with vader, kyle, a stormtrooper, and a lecturer right? try turning off your BOAM2 intro disabler, that turned out to be my problem. At least that is my theory. It was not weorking, i turned off the patch, then it worked , so i can not give a better explanation. Oh yeah, and i forgot to point out that your voice overs were great. I am not even going to ask how to play as vader or get into the kitchen. hehehe

This is, by far, the best set of levels I have ever played. I've played many of your other levels, and I have concluded that you are really good. Keep it up. The voice-overs were really awesome and clear. That was the most surprising part of the level; that the voices were clear. I'd rate it much higher than 10 if I could.

If BOAM 2 was most impressive, this is much, much, better. If you do not get this level right now, then... YOU ARE NOT A GOOD PERSON. This is the best level I've played so far (with the acception of the LEC levels). And though I'm downloading Leeza's Destiny 3.0 right this second, I'm betting this will still be the best level, if not at least a force to be reckoned with. GET IT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whoah, while i wasnt paying attention this comment area has been packed to the brim. I got off of JK and MOTS, but i experianced withdrawl so i started playing again. Well, i just couyldnt help myself from commenting once more on this darn good level. The best out there by far. I agree, this is a good way to get a job as a gaming programer. Whew, i feel sorry for all of the other level producers out there, they have the impossible task of topping this masterpiece of programing.

OK THAT IS IT... THIS LEVEL IS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE! Bad Caps Lock! if you have not downloaded this level than shame on you! Thanks to this guy I forced myself to buy the first Dark Forces and noticed that that one dude... what's his face... General... ah screw it, was in Dark Forces too! Anyway, like the talking in the third (plus the mouth movements). Definately a good finish. But... I could blast Jan out of the machine. Oh well. Still pertaining a 10 here! Keep it up... and where is the kitchen? I sure could go for a triple Rancor patty melt about now! MMMMMMMMMM! :)

I've got a lot to say (not that that is strange :) ) First off and most importantly, this level is great!! It is brilliant, it had me fixed the moment I started playing, I actually played the SE version but this was the best out of the lot so I'll comment on it here. It was great, I would give it a better rating but I can't, DOH!!!
Secondly, At the end when fighting the big ugly robotic rancor thing (forgoten its name... no wait..) MR-14, someone said about it not moving..... I had that and I don't think it was a bug. Me and my friend both downloaded this, I cheated (Boinga on.... That was all I swear)the first time round to see what it was like and when I got to MR-14, he didn't move. My friend didn't and it moved straight away so I think its a side affect of cheating.
Anyway.... Great level.... I WANT FOOD

OK! I LOVE THIS LEVEL! And also I'll tell you all how to kill the MR-14 RANCOR!

**SPOILER**SPOILER**SPOILER**SPOILER**

Ok, go into the room and immediatly run to the left crevice beside the locked control center the MR-14 will follow you (Hopefully he won't fall down the stairs). Quickly grab your Rail Detonator and shoot the Black Electrial Box on the top of the back wall. Then the Electrical pipe will fall. Lead the Rancor there and he'll get killed!
