Main reason is that I simply couldn't think of a good translation for
some actions, i.e. something that is easy to understand and isn't an
overly descriptive sounding. I am not opposed to a translation of the
actions, so here a few that come to mind (just stuff that poped up
while writing this mail, so don't take them as authorative or
anything, if you can think of better stuff use that instead):

Basher - Tunneler
Blocker - Blocker
Bomber - Bomber
Bridger - Brückenbauer (to long?), Überbrücker (not great either),
Konstrukteur (to general)
Climber - Kletterer
Digger - Schachter (sounds a bit weird)
Floater - Schweber, Gleiter, Flieger
Jumper - Springer
Miner - Bergmann (?)
Slider - Rutscher, Gleiter
