This is a rarer option for killing Gearheart but it is also one of the only effective options if the factory is Shielded, since the shield plus the core HP of the factory can have its health approaching 4 million and the Generators are always heavily protected on the opposite side of the map (as shown above). Unless you are absolutely guaranteed you can take out every generator on your very first attack and be perfect on your other two, you are unlikely to suicide run a shielded factory. However, take a look at October 29 2015's Gearheart above; the factory and the key pocket just northwest of it by the cannons are very, very close to the shore and it's only a 2 stun layout (between the two shockblasters to get both, and between the machinegun and rocket to hit them and the shocklauncher), with those stun points being reachable by your troops once the smoke clears. This is actually a very good layout to use one of your boats for Heavies; they will give key protection from the machinegun, shocklauncher and even the rockets/shockblasters once the shocks wear off, giving you a few precious extra seconds to kill them. In both Operations and Gearheart shielded primary buildings (i.e. the factory or Power Core) are quite often more lightly defended than unshielded ones, assuming that people will always go for the generators first and heavily protect and/or spread those out. Even a modest sized force of Zookas safely hammering a shielded factory or power core can do a LOT of damage in a single attack, so often your best plan is to just say screw the generators and smash through the shield with brute force. Two of my first three Gearheart kills were shielded factories killed in the above manner..
