    After your uncanny aim in the recent past, I think this is just the pendulum swinging the other way. Otherwise, your ego would get mad swole and you'd never be able to put your battle helmet on.

    I blame it on things

    which will be discussed later

    but yeah, I am sufficiently humbled now

    I am not the vig this game

    aren't we all the vig this game?

    and in any case I was really excited about your actions that game.

    I feel like I should hand over control of my weapons this game to someone more responsible,

    Like a suspension from all vig responsibilities for the next couple games

    We'll talk about it in the other game thread when its over, I need some redemption through explanation

    You are also fresh off a game where you had miracle vig aim. Just because you got supremely unlucky with one kill action doesn't mean you should hang up your killing gloves.

    Edit: TRV\Grimmy's space phalla game.

    yeah

    we'll talk about it later

    About this game, though.

    Should we develop a plan to maybe ensure we all help kill the npc badguys instead of everyone potentially hiding in the corner on day 1?

    We can still provide total coverage from the corners.

    We can't move/shoot diagonally

    So if everyone was in the bottom two corners, we won't be able to kill the top middle dudes

    Yeah, here's my plan.

    1) Get in their nasty goose-stepping faces.
    2) FIRE AT WILL
    3) Wings 'n Strippers!

    Is there an individual reward for killing or helping to kill enemy npc ships?

    Yes. You get one of these:

    We CAN be in the top corners.

    But considering the goal of phalla is to generally survive as long as possible to help your side win

    I'm wondering how many people are gonna put their ships in harms way on day 1.

    Which is why I want to know if there are benefits to killing enemy ships.

    edit: and I guess that answers my question

    On a more serious note, I think the benefit is "something bad doesn't happen."

    Do ships always enter in the top row? I don't see it in the OP

    He said something about ships entering the areas they border

    So they could come in on the lower rows

    but then it wouldn't be space invaders

    I think the Day Z narration is the only mention of where and how ships come in:

    http://forums.penny-arcade.com/discussion/comment/26187171/#Comment_26187171

    And I agree with Obi's interpretation. I think it's possible for them to come at us from all sides, what with space allegedly occupying three dimensions.

    If we can attack across zones, I think it's unlikely that the invaders cannot.

    In other words, I don't think our positioning is going to be that important of a tactical decision against the invaders. We should be more concerned about mafia trying to manipulate our positioning for their own benefit.

    Each night, a group of zeppelins and fighters (whose make-up will be randomly determined) will launch from the moon onto the battlefield. They will target a ship in their zone to shoot at, and may be freely targeted by players. Their destruction is not required, but eliminating them may help you to live another night.

    But I agree on the other count. NPC ships could easily just be there for distraction.
