Is it just me, or does the concept of missing your own ship with your own bombs seem pretty idiotic? The one time I tried to use a heal bomb on my anti-boarding team (engaged in a battle in the cockpit, where the enemy boarded and I couldn't vent without losing evasion), it missed and I had to retreat to and repair the medbay.

Also, the idea that the Zolton shield cannot prevent boarding events is idiotic. Let's take the weakest race in melee and throw a bunch of heavily armed dudes directly onto their ship through the supposedly impenetrable super-shield! Never mind that NO SHIP IN THE ENTIRE GAME can do this, it takes the one good strength the Zolton cruiser has and negates it entirely.

Are you talking about putting the GuP cast into actual warfare, or simply playing Tank-Fu against someone other than high-school girls?

Here's a crossover purely for the lulz:

Detective Conan meets Conan the Barbarian. Discuss.

...Because armor isn't guaranteed protection? You can still get shot and injured/killed while wearing a bullet-proof vest, you know.

I don't know the exact science behind it, but this article mentions how nearly 60% of the tested vests failed to stop at least 6 rounds.

Some of the graphical bugs are rather hilarious, though. Such as:

Also when aliens 'miss' your people yet several rounds ACTUALLY HIT YOUR DUDE.

That could be excused as your soldier's armor actually doing it's job: keeping the attack from doing damage.

My 20-pound cat decided that attempting to balance on my resting arm and sit on it would be a awesome use of his time.

Have you thought about taking up the ancient art of cat punting?

Ah, the satisfying PDUNK of a successfully punted cat.

Can you PDUNK a pkunk?

No, but you CAN pkunk a punk.

Looks like yet another reason to get a 3DS. Good grief, there have been several of those lately...

I'm going to tell someone with pull once the sun comes up.

Honestly, that's probably the best thing to do in the Real World. With luck, you'll get someone who'll stick up for you and figure out a way to make everyone reasonably happy.
