Notice, that setting a firezone wont stop a turret with fire-at-will setting from firing at enemies entering its range (however it will realign to aim at firezone while idle). As a confirmation of firezone setup turrets will fire at the center of choisen area (beware, that a turret failing to do so might mean that firezone is obscured or unreachable). Any targets entering a firezone, '''including friendlies''', will be targeted. |

| − | + | Remember, that depending on units mass you might require more [[Newton]] turrets. Not all units will be eligible to be "delivered" that way, as most will die from fall damage. The usual choice are [[Jumpbot Factory]] units, as most of units from this factory negate fall damage (and [[Jack]] specifically). Lead units in one-by-one, as otherwise they may be launched either by not every turret at once (providing insufficient force), or from a wrong location (and into wrong direction respectively) | |
