Historical Note
The levels designs in these documents seem to slightly precede the maps in "Steel Harbinger map designs, est. 1996." In particular, the Los Angeles level appears to have been revised, with changes to environmental objects (such as the addition of manta rays) written into the designs after they were printed. One page includes a rough handdrawn map for a revision to the Los Angeles level (p.14), which appears to have been refined and polished in the later map designs.
