	Starship Troopers for PC Review - PC Starship Troopers Review
		Starship Troopers has little dedication to faithfully re-creating the things that made the film unique, and it's a pretty lousy and technically deficient shooter to boot.
		Starship Troopers takes place five years after the events of the movie, and humanity is still very much at war with the Klendathu, a race of nasty bug aliens that may or may not actually be the bad guys, depending on how much you want to read into the film's subtext.
		Other bug types will be thrown at you on occasion, like big plasma bugs that shoot nasty blue plasma bursts out of their butts, and flasher bugs that temporarily blind you while simultaneously signaling other bugs in the area to come rushing in.

	Bug (Starship Troopers) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Warrior bugs are four-legged bugs approximately two to three meters long and are colored as to the terrain, such as desert warriors will be tan with fl and yellow stripes.
		Despite their firepower, the Plasma Bug's role for offensive actions is mainly limited to fire support and long-range bombardment due to its huge size and the immense danger to nearby Bugs from a plasma explosion should one be hit.
		Nurser Bug— A beetle-like Bug that creates a powerful mutagen that modifies indigenous life forms caught as prey by Jungle Spiders to be fed to their young to create different subspecies of Bug readily adapted to other worlds without the need for terraforming.

	Salon \| Melrose vs. the monsters
		More than half of the original "Starship Troopers" is devoted to accounts of Johnny's training -- first in a brutal boot camp that takes in soft kids and turns out killing machines, and later in an officers' program that teaches him how to be a leader of men.
		Nothing in "Starship Troopers" carries the conviction of the Force or even "Independence Day's" rah-rah-for-mankind idealism; the movie can't commit to the militarism it inherited from Heinlein, and it never finds a different ideal to substitute.
		The Bugs swarm impressively -- their warriors have heavy, scimitarlike legs that can mutilate the human form in a trice; there are also pterodactyl-like flying Bugs and tanklike giants with flame-thrower mouths.

	WARGAME RULES FOR STARSHIP TROOPER
		Bugs at the last hex or inch of radius of the blast can be protected if they are in a bug hole, ditch or ravine, or behind a hill.
		At any time the trooper player feels he is loosing, he may ask for air retrieval (if allowed in scenario) if his force is successfully retrieved, the game is a draw.
		Bug holes are safe from air attack, but not ravines, ditches, etc. Hills, and high walls also protect from blast unless they are the target hex.

	Starship Troopers: Review -- Strategy Informer
		There are all sorts of bugs for you to fight, your run of the mill worker bug, which you’ll kill in their thousands if you manage to main sanity long enough.
		You’ll also encounter bugs that can shoot plasma out of their asses, which is an interesting variation, and of course there are the boss bug fights.
		Starship Troopers does provide some multiplayer capacity, but you’re highly unlikely to find anyone else willing to expose themselves to that kind of torture.

		Spider Bugs are best used in concert with a Brain Bug or two, as their paralysing venom enables you to capture large numbers of the enemy for a special.
		The burrower bug is a huge and well-armoured sub-species developed to tunnel through rock at much greater speeds, using its sheer bulk and rows of grinding teeth to cut through the toughest natural materials as quickly as its worm-like body can be propelled.
		The tanker bug is primarily used as a line breaker in battle, smashing part any prepared defence with ease to allow swarms of warrior bugs to assault their enemies.

	Starship Troopers: Special Edition (1997)
		Starship Troopers is a generally entertaining and exciting film, but it lacks an emotional depth that more effective movies possess.
		I certainly can't find any fault with the visual effects; the computer-animated bugs are top-notch, and the level of realism brought to them helps the audience find their world to be very realistic and believable.
		Starship Troopers appears in an aspect ratio of approximately 1.85:1 on this single-sided, dual-layered DVD; the image has been enhanced for 16X9 televisions.

		Starship troopers, probably set in the year 4000AD or something is a complete fasico, honestly.
		Starship Troopers is the perfect example of an over budgetted film and too many speciall effects which drive the film prducers of making a film of good acting.
		The bugs are so magnificently realized that I literally found myself on the edge of my seat as the troops find themselves ambushed in a deserted fort, with the entire horizon blocked out by herds of thundering bugs.

		And, of course, there's the shock troops of the bug population, the mandible-crunching warriors.
		Meyer is probably the best of the lot -- she holds her own as an infantry trooper without being too tomboyish, and she holds her candle for Rico without seeming too sappy (well, except for one scene near the end).

	Scifilm -- Reviews, STARSHIP TROOPERS (1997)
		The movie states that the asteroid originated in the bug cluster near Klendathu, which is on the opposite side of the galaxy from Earth.
		The usual argument is that there is no way the bugs could have used an asteroid as a weapon against Earth, because it would have had to have been sent at a thousand times the speed of light to reach our solar system in the time frame given.
		In other words, it doesn't matter whether the asteroid was sent by the bugs or not (it could have just been a rogue asteroid from our own solar system), what does matter is that the people believe the asteroid was an attack by the bugs.

		Once in the army and after several years of training,the main characters are led to a world where a breed of huge bugs challenge mankind and the film deals with xenophobia and nationalism and ideals like that.
