Has anyone beaten AoD?
I've tried 3 times and every time with a melee oriented fighter. Once I just nuked the damn place in my frustration.
My example run:
--------------------------------------------------------------
DoomRL (v.0.9.8.10) roguelike post-mortem character dump
--------------------------------------------------------------
Taf, level 8 Demon Lieutenant, killed by a Angel of Death
on level 16 of the Phobos base.
He survived 90060 turns and scored 44099 points.
He didn't like it too rough.
He killed 429 out of 430 hellspawn. (99%)
He was a real killing machine...

-- General ---------------------------------------------------
Before him 33 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
24 of those were killed.
1 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? 4 souls claim to have killed him...
4 killed the bastard and survived.

Badass? Use ironman instead, because whatever happens, your health will go bellow zero, thanks to lost souls or angel of death himself. And as for pinkies, if you are fast enough (phaseshift boots/armour, hellrunner) you can lure them and make them take a lava bath (they are stupid...)
