Yeah i agree with johndoe, the blink could use some re-concepting, something 'warpy/teleporty' (i know it's not the best c&c, but perhaps someone else can explain it better). But wow, those others are absolutely stunning- you've done some really exceptional work here Shaz, they are bloody fantastic <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Just for an idea for umbra, how about something like what john doe posted earlier? Something cloudy, but not stereotypical clouds, so they still fit the form of the rest of the crosshairs. Bile bomb has me stumped - perhaps a ball of cloudy substance surrounded with swirls or swishes. (I tried to talk graphically, i really did!)
*edit* looking back over the last few pages, perhaps something that would work for bile bomb is using what you had before for acid rocket, and putting a ball of something in the middle?

Well, I'm going to make them so they're yellow in-game. So that they would match the defaults, and match the alien theme better (IMO). I'm thinking about making a seperate version where each species has a different color.
that'd be cool kinda like your marine upgrade sprites different colors progressing as you get to higher life forms <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
