The point he was making was that the ling's run speed is faster than the PF turret's turn speed. How would you control the PF? The only thing you could do is force fire on an SCV to cause the turret to turn the other way and cut off the ling, but then the ling could just start running the opposite direction. | ||

people would rather just macro up a shitfuck more lings and overrun the PF.. this would work great with things with less hp though! like the flamethrower turret thing in the singleplayer.. people could just micro around that if it moves too slow.. its like rine vs lurker micro... very effective, takes advantage of the lurkers's slow spokes, but only useful because it takes like 5-10 seconds to complete.. not like 5 min to take down a CC... which can easily be repaired.... and has a big ass canon mounted on top that will fuck you up if you mess up... (especially considering its an sc2 ling, not a bw ling) | ||

1) Does the planetary fortress automatically target the closest unit? If so, maybe you can run one zergling up to it while attacking a base with a pf and then micro the zergling throughout the battle, so the pf never fires at your other attacking units. (You could also shift-command it to run laps around the pf and go back to microing your other units) 2) Maybe it is possible to use this with more zerglings. For example, you surround the pf with zerglings, watch where the pf is pointing, then move the 4-5 zerglings from the side to another side and so on. That's all I can think of. | ||
