I swear...  my number one cause of death in this game is being too conservative with my med-packs.  If I had just been willing to use my last med-pack, I probably would've been fine.  *sigh*

Due to a lucky find of a plasma shotgun, I thought I might make an attempt at a shottyman Ao100 game.  As you can see, I had no shortage of ammo for it.  :)  It could've been a very interesting game.  I also found a laser rifle which I modded to high-power status with which I was kicking some serious ass!

Unfortunately, on level 12, I encountered a mancubus that was between me and the exit and the geography of the level prevented me from comfortably pelting it from a distance or using cover adequately.  A frustrating end to a very promising game.  :(

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

 Before him 216 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 193 of those were killed.
 15 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
 And 4 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
 Is he immortal? 4 souls claim to have killed him...
 1 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
 1 killed the bastard and survived.
 2 showed that it can outsmart hell itself.

[Deathwind]

mancubi are the RNG's version of the grim reaper

btw the plasma shotgun or the laser rifle could have cut a hole in that room to use as cover while you killed that thing

[Tormuse]

Crap!  I didn't think of that!  :o

I guess the number 2 killer would be failure to recognize what resources I have.  :)

To keep me from being too reckless or daring or whatever, I myself have some mantras I chant throughout the game, with one of them being "Nothing is more stupid than dying with medpacks in your inventory" (not to mock you, though). They sometimes help, but sometimes the urge to surpass one's self is too strong :D

I do find myself running out of medpacks far more often than I'd like to, though...
