We never planned for this game, just like we never planned for Heartbreak Heist or Trash Kids. This is just another example of how creativity takes you places you never thought you would end up. Kill the Bugs deviates from our non-violent principle for Rise to Heist games - but for a good reason. Ever watched Starship Troopers? It's a movie about fascism and how power corrupts. And yet, you will find people out there arguing that it's about real heroes.
Same goes for Kill the Bugs: The Troop mechanics don't give you much of a choice but to sacrifice your troops or individual Troopers that you named. This is not to show how awesome this all is - quite the opposite! Kill the Bugs is a game you can't win without sacrificing others, because you won't die unless you really push it. If you think that's cool, you missed the point!
