Spoiler (click to show/hide)Beating the arena gives cells
Hell's Armory contains more cells than you can carry :p
Halls of Carnage contain BFG + cells
Mortuary contains adv. BFG/plasma + you can camp commandos

Spoiler (click to show/hide)well... you can find cells in every special level excluding Unholy Cathedral, isn't it that way?

That's a nice idea. The few games I've tried to do shottyman I've met myself running out of shells on deeper levels.

If Kornel ever reads this, you might just have doomed us all for eternity. :P
EDIT: Kornel tried to destroy my post, but I rescued it before he could accomplish such an evil plan :P

What about the Halls of Carnage?
I use the RL mostly agains enemies that don't carry items or groups of enemies. Clearing an arach cave by hitting 3 or 4 of them every time you fire the launcher is quite rewarding :D

Cells ar not common in normal levels so you have to earn them by beating special levels or save every little bit you find on normal levels. But then again they are ammo for the BFG so they should be less common than ammo for weaker weapons.
I think it's fine now.
PS: I'd think twice about "B) Make a few more commandos appear." because sometimes whishes come true....

I've never done Hells Armoury so i never knew it had loads of cells.
And as for the more commandos....

IMHO (the) cells in Hells arena are useless unless Kornel gives us a plasma rifle instead of a rocket for being the champ.
CC gives like 60, but to early to be of any use.
HoC gives, like, 40, and the caco's blow them up before i can get to them =(
I seem to never see HA.
Umm, what else....
When I did CoS i chickened out and didnt pull the lever cause i thought HK and BoH's came out. It was my first attempt at DoomRL though.
Mortuary is scary but Viles+bfg=phr33 l33t aum0rz and 4dv BBBBFFFFGGGG!!!@@@@
Never done Spiders lair.
Thats about it for special levels i think.

You are my savior.
If Kornel reads this, then put more ammo in later levels. Or everyone on the forum will poke you to death with combat knives. [/joke]
TFoN:
Adding more Commandos sound pesky, but lowering the Arach count a little and raising the Commando count a little more might do the trick. On the other hand, I seem to have no cell problems at all. Usually I find myself dropping hundreds, keeping around only 100 for the BFGs 3 more shots. PRs waste ammo too quickly to keep them around - even with plenty of ammo pickups, getting caught with only a PR means running the risk of running out of CURRENT ammo - and me no like that. CGs waste ammo fast enough.
As for RLs, someone said somewhere that since using a RL can be so inconvenient at times, masses of rockets rarely mean too many. You keep 20-30 around, and when it's finally a good time to use them (no loot to ruin and not too close) you end up using most. Then you refill the stocks, 'till the next case appeares, not often in the near future (unless it's AVs, in which case there can't be too many rockets).
And as for shotguns, effectively they have 25 shots per stack. That's only RL*2.5, and you use it way more often, so of course you run out :P Maybe keep a CmbtSG around (and I have another idea, I'll be posting in a moment).

Plasma rifle will become a realy good weapon with the new Advanced Trait (already in Beta ^_^)
