First AoLT and first HMP game :p
I focused on the im/tan combo to minimize the need for medkits so i could carry more ammo. Had a rocket launcher with me to get the  bfg at the halls of carnage but never found them. Apart from that I alternated between plasma and chaingun until I met cybie. Fired two full mags of plasma into him, then switched to rocket launcher and finished him off :D

Nice tactics. I see that you rushed your way through the game (63% kills).
I've tried shotgun (Reloader, Shottyman), cause it doesn't eat ammo as fast as chaingun or plasma, I've tried Eagle Eye to minimize ammo loss, I've tried playing on higher difficulty levels to have more ammo guaranteed and I've even tried double pistol tactics, but ammo was always a big problem. Ammo AND medkits at the same time in my half-pack ;)
Anyway, I died once on 24 level and couple of games later - finally killed Cybie. Unfortunately, mortem.txt had been overwritten before I realised that I should rename it.

Nice work, and congratillations for the first vicory on HMP! I have never played AoLT, because of lack of time, i played only challenges needed to aquire another rank(Yes, i'm a careerist)) I noticed that you killed only 3 BoHs, you avoided them? What was you afraid if you had a rocket launcher, they can be easily killed with it. And, tell me, if you used chaingun and plasma rifle all the game, WHY you have only 1 level of Eagle Eye??! It's really fun to miss, yes?

Ye, I tried to save as much ammo as possible and only really engaged them when there was ammo lying around for me to pick up afterwards.

And, tell me, if you used chaingun and plasma rifle all the game, WHY you have only 1 level of Eagle Eye??! It's really fun to miss, yes?
I figured tan/im are more iportant so I ended up with only one level of ee :p

You are complaining about lack of ammo, and you think that it is normal to miss nearly every second shot? yes, of course, Iron Man is really worth, but, IMHO, it is better be picked at the end of the game, when enemies are dealing serious damage to you.

Here are some comments: Berserk rules, and TaN isn't. On Uv if you are playing melee, better pick IM first, then only TaN. And 2 levels of EE won't hurt you(even in aggressive mode without EE you are missing quite frequently in melee).
Perk order(if i remember rightly): Brute*2 -> Berserker*2 -> TaN(here all became bad, because it is not best perk here) -> IM -> EE -> IM -> Berserker(at this moment things returned to normal state) -> EE -> IM -> Brute -> TaN(don't follow this path, it is quite bad order)
Light Travel is a good challenge, if you want to play melee, but you still want to visit all special levels and areas, where you cannot get without RL. Also in Light Travel you can clear even first levels, because you can use not only knife and fists. Before CC i used normal weapons, but when get chainsaw, i dropped all except RL and some rockets for it. Later in HoC i picked BFG, but never used it at all.
I played this for one reason: i'm a captain now and this means, that Nightmare! difficulty is unlocked! If i will make any real archievemens there, i will post them, so just look sometimes in Post Mortem section.))

If so, what perks do you think you should have picked up and in which order?

Thanks!
I have two ideas, what order will be better for melee on UV:
1) Brute*2 -> IM -> EE*2 -> IM -> Brute -> IM -> EE -> Berserk*3)) -> something you want(if you will have 13-th level)
2)Brute*2 -> Berserk*3)))) -> EE(or IM) -> IM(or EE, it must be not equal to previous perk) -> EE -> IM*2 -> Brute -> EE -> something you want.
