*As I used my true name in this particular game, I changed it here.

The thing that bothered me the most was that there was no BFG9000 waiting for me in the Halls of Carnage. I am wondering whether it was destroyed by splash damage from other weapons, even through the walls.

As I had no BFG9000, and only an empty chaingun and the rocket launcher for company, I skipped the Hall Of Skulls. Are there any other special levels besides the ones mentioned here?

I also found no Nukes in this game. No JC-bashing for me, then.

I killed the Cyberdemon in an unusual way. I waited until I saw him, then used a Phase Device, lined myself in a direct line against the Cyberdemon from my new position and fired Rockets non-stop. Surprisingly, I hit with all of them. When the Cyberdemon was close enough to see me again, I used another Phase Device and repeated the process. I killed it just before it could fire a rocket at me.

Hell's armoury.

Good strategy. Too bad I hardly ever pick up PDs, seem a bit useless for 1 per inventory space to me.

Also, grats on your YAKM. Great first VP.

There's no BFG in Hell's Armoury afaik, but there is one in the Spider's Lair.

If you want to do the City of Skulls next time, consider bringing either a double shotgun or a combat shotgun with 50 shells.. works wonders there. Fastload is prefered offcourse.

Nice strategy for killing the CD btw, i used it myself once or twice. But you don't need to wait for the CD the first time, just wait till you hear him move your way.
