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

 Before him 60 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 37 of those were killed.
 1 of those was killed by something unknown.
 2 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? 16 souls claim to have killed him...
 3 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
 13 killed the bastard and survived.

--------------------------------------------------------------
The early game was quite simple. I lured formers and killed them on door tiles. I never left corpses behind me - after clearing 3-4 rooms the danger level really drops.

I was very lucky to find a Revenant's Launcher on level 3, which I used to destroy imp corpses (they don't pick up items and they die from onevolley from a chaingun - I didn't have the patience to lure them with a pistol). Later on I used it to destroy Hell Knight and Baron corpses (it's hard to time them so that they die on a door tile).

My biggest worry in the early game was the hard version of the Chained Court. My plan was to immediately run to the right, kill the barons and destroy their corpses - it worked perfectly.

The Wall was easy - I created a tunnel near the middle and spammed rockets and shells until everything was dead. A few times a Baron would get right in my face, but shotty + max damage = ridiculous knockback.

In the Halls of Carnage I sprinted to the stairs and waited until the lava killed everything (wow it moves fast).

I killed everything and destroyed all corpses until level 16. Just as I was going to enter the UC to get Longinus Diamond, I realized I didn't have any melee weapons :( At this point I abandoned the YAAM attempt and concentrated on finishing the game in one piece.

The Vaults were really easy - I fired a combat shotty around a corner to lure Viles and finished them off with the plasma rifle. After all of the Viles were dead I just walked right into the middle vault and I killed the remaining Revenants.

I entered the Mortuary with two invulnerability globes running which allowed me to quickly kill 4-5 viles. I also had a blood skull which I used immediately, and a metric fuckton of rockets from the vaults. After my invulnerability ran out, I was at the right side of the level and I started destroying corpses with rockets. After the right side was cleared I spammed plasma into the middle and mopped up with the BFG. I didn't actually use the BFG that much - I fired maybe 3-4 shots total.

After the Mortuary I spawned near the down stairs, I used a homing phase device on level 24 and I killed the Cyberdemon with the plasma rifle (3xHR,DM,MAc = easy).

Fun fact #1: Arch-Vile corpses don't respawn, or respawn veeery slowly. (Can someone confirm this? Maybe it was my speed, but I don't recall a single Arch-Vile rising from the dead.)

Fun fact #2: After completing the Mortuary, reviving doesn't stop like in the Hell's Arena.

From now on, aiming for YAAM is my go-to tactic on Nightmare. It fits perfectly with my style of play. We'll see how it works on other challenges.

[Firstblood]

#1. Arch-Viles never respawn, that's right. They leave behind "bloody corpse". This is to prevent Arch-Viles from raising each other if you encounter more than one.

#2. I think that's why that level has a Nuclear BFG.

Very nice.
