After lurking some time here, reading strategies and other stuff I have decided to tackle fist-only ITYTD game. I have read Juggler strategy from Tormuse and seeing it be very easy, I tried tackling it with a chainsaw offhand and a pistol in primary hand. While I have won, the only badge was UAC bronze, so the bug that the strat was using has obviously been fixed. This run was straight fist-only except for an occasional rocket to redesign a level (one severely harmed a cacodemon behind the wall (!) which nearly spoiled the run, thankfully only the killing blow matters) and a pistol to blast a door. I had tremendous luck with invulnerability globes, got three in a row prior to Cyberdemon which lasted into Hell level 2 after IDDQD-punching the big guts outta him, one or two in Hell level 4 (next level went a breeze, an arachnotron cave would be a trouble otherwise) and two in Hell level 6 (that was an arachnotron cave too) which last me enough to nuke the hell out of Hell level 7 (that presumably had a RVRVR pack in there), go for the exit (stupid me having HPDs in inventory... constantly forgetting to use them when I can) and punch out thwe legs off Mastermind without it wearing out.
I have tried diamond game first but all my tried end up at Phobos-4 or alike. Maybe I should learn playing DOOMRL a little more to tackle diamonds?
