3 A chainsaw? How are you imagining a chainsaw hitting an owl flying over an enemy army? The whole point of a jammer is that it means there are no radar dots for a chainsaw to hit. 3 A chainsaw?

5 The suggestion for sending in tridents is also utterly ridiculous, that's just feeding the enemy as the Owl casually autopilots away. 5 The suggestion for sending in tridents is also utterly ridiculous, that's just feeding the enemy as the Owl casually autopilots away.

7 Swifts at least are something I could see an intelligent newby suggest, but in practice they aren't going to work. Swifts barely outpace an Owl without the boost and you need around 7 to have a good chance of a one-pass kill. You'll lose several swifts if the enemy has any AA at all (which they will if your team is building planes) and you boost micro well, an Owl costs about 2 Swifts and all the wrecks land in enemy territory. If the Owl was on attack move your swift could never even see it... 7 Swifts at least are something I could see an intelligent newby suggest, but in practice they aren't going to work.

8 You might kill the Owl, but the next one will arrive in moments (if it isn't prebuilt!) and you'll have donated about 300 metal to the enemy by doing so. 8 You might kill the Owl, but the next one will arrive in moments (if it isn't prebuilt!) and you'll have donated about 300 metal to the enemy by doing so.
