Factories

Factories are fatal to Managed Democracy. Your job is to eliminate each and every one that you find whenever you fight a world full of Automatons. They are located in outposts of small, medium, or heavy variety. They are sturdy, but Managed Democracy always finds a way to destroy them.
The following are capable of destroying factories:
Grenades - Lob them into the open vents at the top of the factory or in the open door. There are reports that the door does not need to be opened, verify at your own risk
Autocannon - Aim towards the bottom of the vent. Try to place yourself directly in front of the vent when aiming as the greater the angle the more likely you are to miss.
Grenade Launcher - Aim towards the middle to lower part of the vent.
Eagle Airstrike - Place the beacon to the side of the Factory. The Eagle Airstrike will run from left to right perpendicular to your facing. If you place the beacon too far in front or behind the factory you will miss.
Eagle 500 KG - While capable of hitting multiple factories at once, it does have a small radius. Be careful about placement as you may end up missing all the factories with a poor placement
Orbital Laser - It prioritized buildings and large enemies first. Because of this, it will often be the only stratagem needed to fully eliminate all factories in an outpost. Be careful as Automatons may still remain in an outpost after the laser expires - especially in medium or heavy outposts.
