    They're only blue if you're on the blue team.

    They're not hawks.

    They're not planes of any sort.

    They're bots.

    They're freaking gorillas.

    So could someone please explain to me


    WHY THE **** ARE THEY CALLED BLUEHAWKS?

    They should be called rocket monkeys or something, and their missiles should look like bananas

    you know, for scale

    Just call them clobberers. I mean just look at them, they look like they'd give you a pretty thorough beating.

    Psychological warfare. Simply put: to screw with your head.

    Worked well.

    Would you rather they call it the Gorilla Bolo? I wouldn't put it past them.

    an A-10 isn't a warthog either.

    or an F-14 a tomcat.

    I suspect they just put names in a hat and pulled one out.

    That or @scathis or Brad got to choose...

    Isn't it obvious, it was probably named by a backer...

    Are you sure? Cause everyone i ever talked to about it called it a monkeylord.

    P.S. I like Bluehawk, carrying on the monkeylord tradition.

    Yes, this game has silly names. Did you know that it actually has a glitch that calls the "Ant" a "Bolo" like wtf

    The name ant suited the "bolo" because it's strong in large numbers, but nearly useless alone.
