-- General ---------------------------------------------------

 Before him 68 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 54 of those were killed.
 2 of those were killed by something unknown.
 2 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
 And 5 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
 Is he immortal? 5 souls claim to have killed him...
 5 killed the bastard and survived.

--------------------------------------------------------------

* No pushing luck this time. I was at 96%/L10 when facing Cybie. I was planning to homing device myself to Cybie if I would have gotten to L11 prior the fight. But maybe it's better this way.

** Left two levels without killing everything. First was at ~L5 when I just couldn't find one monster thanks to lava/acid or something. The other one was one arachnocave with mucho lava. Came to mind just a minute ago that I could have used phase devices to get the last 3 arachnos but didn't. Oh well, maybe it's better missing 4 kills rather than 1 from YAAM.

*** At last or should I say it not. It did take only 3 tries the second one dieing at hell's arena thanks to having the arena master spawn the last three cacos next to me. I think AoMs isn't that hard if you use the proper tactic. (Cateye + corner shooting + blowing up walls)

**** Decided to try badass this time. Not sure whether it was helpful or not. At least I noticed that killing enemys was much harder midgame without enough levels of SoB. TaN isn't really needed if you won't get cornered and if you kill the enemy's before they get close to you (Cateye or pushing them back).

***** This time found only one red armor and it was quite early (~L10). It was enough thou because I luckily found durability mod for it not much after finding the armor. I replaced it with the blue one on L24.

****** Quite many of these.


Overall:

I used a combat shotty quite long because I went the badass route first and couldn't use a chaingun effectively until midgame after investing in SoB. That's pretty much why I didn't take EE first. I think combat shotty is quite good on this challenge thanks to that it can be used to corner shoot without bothering with ammo and of course because it can also hit many enemies that way.

This was quite a fun challenge to play. Alot more than AoP for instance. Now I gotta try AoB seriously. Maybe half of the DoomRL games I've played are AoB tries. Got to Unholy Cathedral once and got steam rolled by AoD. Also I still have UV before getting the next rank. I think I'm gonna use the tactic I used for AoMs for UV too.

[Edit: please post different mortems in different threads. They are much readable this way. I split your 2 mortems.]
