my opinion is it doesnt really matter i trust the coders know their jobs and if they allow sm npcs to shoot outside sm mantis its no accident and as i mentioned above and noticed ingame they have placed safeguards as to not permit "exploits"ridoi said:SM: Some SM unit's/npc might help you defeat another mantis/npc inside the SM or outside the SM.
Some sm allow you to have a great number of mantis so you could defeat them...
but i cant know how much each gm spends playing the game to know so i cant comment on tht aspect.
not all must have my defect to play a lot (im even on my 2nd acc started new as i revisited pg,the old one is still on baumar which was max when i left)
