 Before him 120 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 116 of those were killed.
 2 of those were killed by something unknown.
 And 2 couldn't handle the stress and commited a stupid suicide.

I entered that level with full blue armour and at least 8 large medkits. Starts off fine. Then I walk into a room into the sight of two V's, who immediately take me down to something like 40% health. I phase out of there, only to find another V. Managed to take him out, and one more who popped up, but a third got me with some insane damage amount. And there was still one left elsewhere on the level. Unbelievable.

I've seen it said elsewhere that Viles are scary because of their resurrection ability. True enough, in old Doom. But here, a 100% hit-chance attack with that high damage, coupled with speed unmatched by anything but Lost Souls? Hell, I welcome the times they spend their turns resurrecting other monsters. Less turns spent hellfiring me.

Yeah, V's suck. I usually try to get next to them, because they'll stop flaring you, and their melee seems to be weaker than those pillars of flames. Then you can simply send'em a brust of plasma or lead into chest or head. Or turn'em into few pieces of meat with your chainsaw. =)

Hell, such a nice game... and Viles waste everything. Damn you all, little yellow freaks !
