Space Invaders Chess

I had seen this particular variant feature on chess.com forums earlier and was captivated by its arrangement of pieces.

While playing against 13 pawns seems unbeatable on the simulator - I tried reducing the pawns one at a time and could beat 10 of them.

I would love to know your comments on:-

 

1. Strategies to play?

2. How many space-invaders could you beat?

3. And lastly, if this gives you ideas for any new variations?

I could beat 10 of those goons. After that Sippy made the movie really hard.

The world needs more defenders. Hopefully, the chess gods send some masters here.
