I meant vanilla as in vanilla DoomRL. And true the stuff you mention wasn't in original Doom but for some reason it's easier for me to swallow than the monster you suggested. Don't ask why, call me weird if you want it just is :P

Personally, I'm against this idea, too. I see two major cons:
1) A monster like this would probably be in conflict with the rest of the game's content. DoomRL is quite an abstract game (for example, we have a trait that literally gives you ammo out of air). Security officer, on the other hand, is a detailed monster - adding him would break the level of abstraction the rest of the content operates on. Incidentally, I didn't like the inclusion of Pancor Jackhammer into the game as well, for the same reason.
2) Doesn't sound quite doomish enough (which is the reason we don't have assault rifles and the like in the game)
So, in my opinion, such ideas are excellent meat for mods, but do not fit well into vanilla.

So... what... you'd be OK with the Jackhammer if only Kornel were to change its name to "automatic shotgun" and remove all references to the Pancor Corporation, I take it? Seriously, that's a pretty dumb notion...

What about the Angel of Death in the unholy cathederal?

Funnily enough yes, I consider such a variant to be better. Seems to be working fine for Assault Shotgun, doesn't it? But of course, this is all subjective.
