1 For BB, first scout its defenses with swift (3-4) afterburner flyover it. If you see gaps that scythes can penetrate - and it doesn't take much - then that is probably the best option. However, if the BB is raised where scythes cannot reach it or covered by enough turrets to rule that out, then a silo or scylla is probably the best option. The silo is better if the BB has shields as shockley eats shields and tac nukes will destroy the BB. A scylla holds more tac nukes and has 500 elmo more range than a silo so sometimes that makes a big difference. 1 For BB, first scout its defenses with swift (3-4) afterburner flyover it.

3 Alternatively, sacrificing 18-19 ravens to bomb it might work ( BB is 6000 metal while raven is 300) if 6 ravens get through to drop then the BB dies - of course if the BB is shield or has caretakers, then more ravens must succeed. 3 Alternatively, sacrificing 18-19 ravens to bomb it might work ( BB is 6000 metal while raven is 300) if 6 ravens get through to drop then the BB dies - of course if the BB is shielded or has caretakers, then more ravens must succeed.

5 Of course, there is always the DRP, zenith, trinity and starlight that will make short work of a BB :) 5 Of course, there is always the DRP, zenith, trinity and starlight that will make short work of a BB :)
