I'd like for observers to be a bit distracted when their plane bursts into flame and begins heading straight to the ground. Understandably some might continue the 'good fight' even when they know they're doomed, but not all (most?). Maybe I'm wrong, but I think it's just human nature to forget about firing your guns when you're surrounded by flames and experiencing a free fall effect. smile

I think a small random chance that the observer would continue firing would do the trick. That could account for the hard as steel types who want to take you down with them. I've lost track of how often I've been damaged or wounded by these extraordinarily brave superhuman enemy observers. ar15
