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

 Before him 42 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 23 of those were killed.
 4 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
 And 3 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
 Is he immortal? 12 souls claim to have killed him...
 2 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
 9 killed the bastard and survived.
 1 showed that it can outsmart hell itself.

Dying moments after emerging victorious from the Mortuary, armed with the Loginus Spear and having the Angelic Armor, with NINE large medkits, TWO homing phases and a nuke, and only because You feel there is something really valuable here!? Why yes! Of course! What a superb idea!

I kid you not, when i scrolled through five pages of --more--, only to find that You die... <Press Enter>, i exploded with a forty second barrage of the word for sexual intercourse.

"Hey, i'm doing so well, maybe i should save and scum, just in case i get killed in an incredibly stupid way one level later... Nah."

I would have won.

Vengeance will be mine.

Game Hunter:
Not much to say, you had it in the bag. I'm curious as to your health on the turn before your death, however: must have been high enough for you not to want to use up a homing phase. Revs, Viles, and Mancubi should always be handled carefully if you aren't zerking. Still, I'd say you're good enough to get it right the next time you hit Chained Court.

Also, this should go without saying, but wearing the full artifact set gives you extra armor, regardless of the condition of the Angelic Armor (it will even stay with you at 0% durability). According to Fanta it's +6; according to the Angelic Armor page on the Wiki it's +4: either way it's at least the equivalent of a red armor that doesn't slow you down, so there's little reason not to wear it once gained.

And I'm sure the Cleaver on floor 20 was a bit of a kick in the crotch. Seems you have the same disease as I do: getting unique weapons when they aren't useful (or usable).

Simon-v:
In retrospect, i should have used a phase device (a regular one). This might have allowed me to see what the heck was that something really valuable here! that got me into the mess in the first place.

The "funny" thing is i witnessed the synergy message from the Angelic Armor and i knew it was indestructible. I just got distracted and didn't pay enough attention to put the two together.
Learning new rules by dying an unexpected, cruel, stupid, humiliating death? Why yes! Of course! What a superb idea!

--- End quote ---
It was. On the other hand, the last time i got the Cleaver on floor 2, i got slaughtered immediately afterwards in Hell's Arena.
What was my point again?

Kg:
Well gratz on almost completing AoB. I have unlocked all challenges, but there's no way I'd win AoB. I didn't have even luck with AoMr or AoSg. But it's funny thing about DoomRL - sometimes you manage to complete harder challenges / bagdes. My 3rd silver for unlocking nightmare was competing Hell's Arena on UV, so I was like wtf.
Anyway, better luck on future runs!

thelaptop:
I would caution against doing any AoB runs on this release of DoomRL because of the Zerk-armour bug -- it can make a hard Berserker challenge even harder.  That said, if you do complete AoB in this release without scumming, you have my utmost admiration.  =D
