Okay. What the fuck is a slumberling and why are they so overpowered?
They're bear things that sleep for all but one day of the year.

Also, they aren't overpowered: They're generated sleeping. Yes, they're extremely powerful for the level they're spawned in, but they're generated sleeping and even if they wake up they'll likely fall back to sleep quickly. Just avoid them if you can't handle them, no one's forcing you to kill them.
On the flip side, if you accidentally attack one when running across a area that you already cleared (except for it of course), then you will die extremely fast.

Because the solution to not being able to control your dakka is MOAR DAKKA.

That's it. We've finally crossed over and become the nation of Da Orky Boyz.

That's why you should be careful of holding down the movement key in Roguelikes. It doesn't matter what Roguelike you play, holding down the movement key is dangerous.

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

The much more likely problem is if you hit a slumberling accidentally with a ranged weapon.  I managed to wake up one I hadn't seen yet, when I fired a shotgun at some foes with unexplored territory behind them.  Luckily he fell back asleep in like two turns.  The point being, it's not 100% possible to ignore them, if they generate in an inopportune location.

I only use ranged weapons when I want to kill the zealot.

That's a waste of ammo. He's so weak any half-decent melee character can kill him.

Also, just wondering what you guys think; which is better? A laser rifle, or a sniper rifle? Note that ammo's not a problem as I've got a lot of ammo for each.

Change the keybindings then. Being able to force-attack is very useful.

Just had the best thing happen.

I accidentally aggrod the glowpad merchant. He had only melee weaponry, so I kept kiting him and throwing fireballs at him. In the end I got his temperature so high that I also burst into flames from it, thus ending my very short existence. This brings up a very weird mental image.

You have to use the numpad keys for it, at least, I have to

Numpad doesn't work either. And yes, I did press the Num-lock.
