My first win! Yeah I know, Easy isn't very impressive but I'm still happy with it.

This was a really close one, I ran out of Power Cells after 3 BFG blasts and had to use my Double Shotgun. I was one turn away from dying, but it all worked out in the end.

I made a lot of stupid mistakes this game, not the least of which was using the resources needed to clear the Mortuary and then forgetting to pick up the Angelic Armor. >_< Hopefully I'll be less careless on my future games, especially since I plan to do medium.

Also, I have a spoilery question.

Thermies spawn randomly, and not often, especially on E since ammo/gun spawning in general is lower than in higher difficulties.

As for what the ultimate evil is... well, what do you see in those mortems that you don't see in any standard win mortems? ;P

Also, good job on surviving without Int 3.  I have yet to do this myself...

One note:

If you use shotguns, do take shottyman. It makes using shotguns, especially double shotguns, a whole lot more fun. In this game you also already had the requirement (Reloader(2)).

I actually used a defensive build here with 3 IM, 3 TaN and 1 EE for accuracy with my rocket launcher. My sequence was TaN-TaN-TaN-IM-EE-IM-IM-RL-RL. SInce I ended up with two more points at the end that I didn't need, I just dumped them in Reloader once I got to that part (It seemed the most useful since all my weapons at that pointt required frequent reloading)
 
I'll try running a shottyman game in the future though, it sounds like it could be fun. Any tips on what other traits to take for that build once I have the 2 RL and 3 SM?

Shottyman is a single-level trait for reasons that become mighty obvious once you take it.  Hellrunner and probably Finesse would go fairly well with it.

Yeah, I just did a shottyman game and came back here to correct myself. Boy do I feel silly. :-P It was kinda fun, but I prefer to keep my options open as far as weapons are concerned so I probably won't use it too often. I still have a few other builds to try as well. :3
