As for the run - its all the same. Got several berserk packs on lvl2 and berserk lasted until almost the end of second wave. Damaged hell knights with shotgun then and finished them of with one or two fist hits each.
Also got two berserk packs on the level before CC+ so managed to complete it with full hp (without that packs I think i could complete it on ~15% hp).
In the beginning I was planning to get conqueror on one condition: the special level on phobos7 must be militay base since it is so much easier to fist through that phobos lab (Phobos lab must be freaking hard on only-fist runs I think). I had no luck with it, so I didn't bother later to enter useless for this particular attempt special levels.
Got MVm in anomaly and the game got much easier. Got lots of armors before armory and in it and the game got much easier again. Then I got TaN2 and nanofiber armor (this is one of that few particular situations when it is really useful) and the game became absurdly easy.
Entered UC to check if I missed some monsters and only there remembered that now one can find out kill stats it character info screen.

Some tips&advices about strongman diamond:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
To get strongman diamond (not speaking about angelic, it is insane though) you need to shoot. Shoot at enemies with a pistol but _never_kil_them_ with these shots. Then finish them of with one-two fist hits.

Don't wait with weapons in arms, someone might die out there and ruin your attempt.

You may freely melee kill monsters while holding a gun, kills will count towards fist-kills.

Its easier to get situation lucky enough to complete the arena and continue with armor, large med pack and xp boost than to skip it and try to endure without it.

Don't shoot at the formers with the pistols twice - its a bad idea. Same goes for imps with one exception of "scratched" imp status after first shot.

Don't use shotgun on low hp targets from any range.

Remember about barrels, if your shot misses it can detonate a barrel and kill someone. So always pay attention to the direction you shoot. Ideally you should perfectly know that on that bullet trajectory will be no barrels. (and this is where shotgun is really dangerous to use.

Giftdrop and wait a lot.

When you passed the anomaly you completed ~90% of challenge. ~99% when you got MVm and TaN2.

well maybe I'll remember some more and add them here :).

Tormuse:
This is all really good advice; I've gotten Strongman Diamond a couple times, but never as a Conqueror and I really want to see if I can do that in this version. :)

Also, I just realized that your sig says you reached God Hand rank! I guess it's a sign of how little I've been on here that I didn't know that. Congrats! :D

Wow, I can't really believe that you didn't notice.... since you were the first one to congratulate me when I posted my 15th Diamond mortem :)

Whoa, what? Wow! 15 Diamonds! :o Congrats on that! :D Cyberdemon experience rank too! I know that takes a really long time to get! I imagine you're close to getting Apostle rank then? (Unless they changed the requirements in this version?)

And I've been thinking of trying for Ao100 N! YAAM at some point too, when I have a lot more free time. Hopefully, when 0.9.9.7 comes out. :)

As for the conqueror I think it is much easier in 0.9.9.7 since military base is just a great place to fist through and phobos lab may be on par with the wall.

Tormuse:
LOL! You're right! I did congratulate you already! :P I feel dumb now, but I blame my time in school for pushing facts out of my head and making me forget. :)

Heh, sounds kinky. ;) (Sorry, sorry) :P
