the problem is that the terran can spam "stop" on the turret and it will fire at the observer anyway, so it might not be worth your observers if you are playing against a good terran | ||

Basically place your obs above the turret.. By press S on the turret, it will attack the obs, in a SPIRAL MOTION! Woo! Tornado.. | ||

It's possible to move an observer over an already-built turret, and it will barely survive, but i don't know how useful that is, or how consistent you can make it. I think you can do this with a shuttle too. the problem is that the terran can spam "stop" on the turret and it will fire at the observer anyway, so it might not be worth your observers if you are playing against a good terran Yes you can do it with a shuttle! In Diplomacy Gold 7.7 or w/e you could get free money by dropping an scv on an island with a capturable city, and put the shuttle over the turret and have the scv kill the turret after you froze it! :D It didn't always work though Much easier to do with a turret during construction. | ||

Or it can be used (as stork did recently) to disable a turret beeing built in a push for a few critical seconds while you zealot bomb the tank line and break the push. | ||
