Official Hint Book Description[]
Art for Trans by Adrian Carmack as shown in the Official Spear of Destiny Hint Book
From The Official Spear of Destiny Hint Book:
- Trans (Pronounced TRAHNZ) is so tough he chews up lead bars and spits out bullets.
- Make sure you're packing plenty of ammunition and a chaingun before you face Trans. He's a heavily armored, two-fisted gun-man that wield dual chainguns delivering more firepower than you can withstand in a toe-to-toe bullet battle.
Trivia[]
- The Grösse family displayed in the Wolfenstein family of games spans 6 siblings, not including the 2 Hans Grösses in the Aardwolf maze in E2M8.
- Trans is replaced in the Spear of Destiny Mission Packs by Submarine Willy.
