* Admiral Shane gets one when the Secretary of Defense presses him to send more craft against the barrier in an effort to get through despite mounting losses from doing so. Shane gives the Sec Def a thorough chewing that ends with this. "You want me to send up another plane? I'll do it the second you come up here and ''sit your ass in the copilot seat!''" *hangup*
* There's something to be said on the meta about being able to make little plastic pegs into a badass weapon for the sake of keeping a theme.

It even works as a ''confusion tactic'' against the aliens, whose technology and fighting style is based around only engaging ''direct threats'' to their vessels. Turning the guns all starboard and therefore ''away'' from the enemy ship confuses the hell out of its operators and gives the ''Missouri'' the few seconds she needs to close in and set up her moves while the aliens have to manually override and aim their own weapons. By the time they even figure out what in the world is going on, they're staring down the barrels of nine very angry and ready-to-rock 16 inch guns.
