I frequent the game blog of Tom Chick, and he's posted some in-depth analyses of the various mechanics of Section 8. He has also conducted a lengthy interview with the game's producer, Robert Siwiak. I highly recommend you check both out.

people getting frustrated by the game need to read these. it explains a lot of the game mechanics that people don't seem to be getting by just playing the game (aka skipping the single player tutorial and going into multiplayer then raging at mechanics they don't understand).
