Is there a limit on how many of these strikers could be used in a single game? Or a limit to the size of the teams?

I do not believe so and would not see why/ how there would be a team size limit.

No limit for strikers or teams. Each unit is essentially independent of the others. Which in a sense makes them more versatile, you can make up you own games like zombie, where eventually everyone ends up on the same team.

As far as I know there is not. My son has various sizes giving him a total of 9 guns I think and there has been no probs w/ varioys play set-ups.

It does not play well. It can be done, in a pinch, but it is far better with more players. Change that to: Far far far far better with more players.

You can. I've played it with students as 3 player. But you might want to modify the rules a bit. Because with 3 players, you either score 2 points or no points. Which isn't as much fun as with 4 or more players.

You can do 4 people simultaneously (even more if you buy extra equipment). When you purchase a game just look at the back of the cover and see how many players it is made for.

It's pretty fun with 2 or 4. Basically, it's two teams of 2 against each other. The point goal is raised to compensate and the gameplay changes just a little, but overall it's just as fun. In general this game takes a learning curve, so be prepared for the first couple of games to take a while, but the more you get a hang of it the funnier and faster gameplay becomes.

Two three or four can play. You can play as teams. Do I dare say "sets"?! :-).

It can play up to 8 players with the built-in rule, and you can modify the rules slightly (ex. everyone drawing less cards in the beginning) to accomodate for more people. The game shines most when you play it in the teamplay format as described in the rules (ie. in teams of 2's).

The rules only cover up to 5, but it should be possible to add more. Since it is a cooperative game, couples could share a hand (especially useful if some of the players are young or not experienced in this type of game).

I think it says up to 10 players because you have the option of team play. Not positive, but I think that's the case.

It's definitely more fun with more players. We usually don't play with less than four.

Yes, however, all players are a team anyway. But two people could act as one for the different "assignments" of the players.

Yes you can play 2-on-2 pretty well and its a lot of fun playing teams...if you play a 200-300 point squadron build game, you could even do 3-on-3...

yes. you wouldn't remove them, but only set it up with one (if that's your choice). With a quickness of the game we appreciate having the three goalies.

You could, but the game is mostly cooperative, and can be quite difficult the less players you have, actually its difficult all the time. :) If either of the 2 players is a "cyclon" then they can just steamroll the other player.

3 or more. Although, I tried with 3 and found that it probably works best if you have more than 3 (5-6 players would be a lot more fun). To be fair, we didn't follow all the rules to the letter (mainly bc the rulebook is so long).

With the three expansions you could, it could take a while, but will be fun. You could do teams of 2. Also very fun to do a random draw.

Yes. Two players is easy. Four is the most difficult. But you can play with three.
