After trying (and failing) about a hundred times to do AoB on Nightmare, I thought I'd try an easier difficulty just for a change of pace, and whaddya know? I got it on my first try. :)
This mortem marks the first time I've ever beaten the AoD fairly, without lava-walking. (Hence the thread title) :P Since I was berserk at the time, (from fighting the demons) I didn't even need to use a single med-pack!
Would have been YAAM and a brick silver too if my phase devices had cooperated and put me on the correct side of the wall. (Oh well...) At least I was able to send JC off with a bang! :D

Before him 286 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
260 of those were killed.
1 of those was killed by something unknown.
16 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? 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.
