Tactical Information

• The Eagle releases the bombs in a straight line, perpendicular to the direction of the stratagem beacon's towards the Helldiver that threw the beacon.
  • If the beacon bounces off of an object, the new direction will be the one chosen for the calculations
• There are two parts to this stratagem: the initial bomb detonations, then the lingering napalm
  • The bomb detonation deals damage, while the lingering napalm provides damage over time in an area that can easily take care of damaged or weak enemies.
• The bombs of this airstrike are unable to destroy objective structures besides Automaton Fabricators and Terminid Bug Holes.
