 Pros: Lots of caps because you can sell the plentiful small gun weapons and ammo and the valuable energy weapons. Unarmed is fed by Endurance (with a bonus from Strength) S.P.E.C.I.A.L., which is derived into health and carry weight, respectively. "Infinite" ammo, only need to keep weapons repaired. Even the Big Gun "Rock-It Launcher" can work quite well with garbage like Bent Tin Cans.
-Cons: Must get close to fight. '''''Cannot''''' become over encumbered or else you cannot charge enemies to drop dem bombs on 'em, son.  You are the strong, silent type--as in you will probably never pass any Speech challenges.

'''This character type is not recommened for first-time or casual players as the combat is much more difficult. Use this character if you are familiar with this style of play and preferrably if you are familiar with some of the quests--''Those!'' is particularly difficult as well as the DC Mall area.'''

 * I'm playing "good" with this one, and thus will save Megaton to get the apartment there. Store your Big Guns there early so you can tote more loot.
 * Do not put a lot of points into Big Guns.  I chose to use the Size Does Matter perk to bump it up quickly in the middle to late stages (get it to about 50 because you will add 30 through Size Does Matter, and ''should'' find the Bobble Head).
-* Use a guide to find the bobble heads for the tag skills. You should actually try to find all the Bobble Heads.
+* Use a guide to find the bobble heads for the tag skills. You should actually try to find all the Bobble Heads, especially the ones for your tag skills.  This character is required to get the Perception Bobble Head before level 16.
 * Never, ever, ''EVER'' become over encumbered. You should consider running around without armor on, too (but carry some for quickly putting on if you are outgunned). You need to be fast so you can get close (once you enter the [DANGER] zone). Or, you need to be quiet--and armor adds to your "noise" when sneaking.
-* Hang on to skill books until level 5. Seek out skill bobble heads (esp the Unarmed one).
+* Hang on to skill books until level 5. Then you will be getting twice the bang for the buck.

 * I'm clunky with the controller so for X360/PS3 based games, I use V.A.T.S. '''''a lot'''''. My choice for Perks is geared that way (getting criticals in V.A.T.S. can end a person quickly--useful when you got a gang o' bros to dispatch).  Put another way, V.A.T.S. gives you more smackin for the action (points).
 * I have yet to play through far enough to encounter a Deathclaw but I hear they are harder to handle than Super Mutant Behemoths, of which I have encountered.  These are guys you don't want to deal with up in their face (at least not without softening them up first). It's for this reason, I chose to add Big Guns (Nukes). Try to sneak up on them and hit them with the Rock-It Launcher, to get that first bonus, maybe crippling one of their legs.
 * Big guns lets you get at the anything=ammo Rock-It Launcher early. Be sure to save up and get the schematic from Moira, and some or all the stuff you need is (usually) in the Super Duper Mart, so go ahead and take Moira's quest(s).  Problem with big guns is weight, so their weight limits your loot toting amount.
