  • What about air units...

    Is there any information about air units (bombers, jets etc...). Will they still be behave as they do in Civ3?

    That should look cool in zoom-able 3D.

        No words yet AFAIK. I presume the 3D thing will be looking cool and all, but I just hope the implementation is better than earlier.

              I hope air units are in but not with the same functionality as was the case in Civ2. More like an improved Civ3 type of functionality.

                  the more interesting question for me is:

                  What about promotions for air units? Which of the now known promotions do they share with ground units? And with which will it be possible to raise the interception probability for example? Or will there be special promotions for ait units? What about sea units? Questions neverending...

                    An extremely slow wave.

                      Like to see supercavitating sea units and weapons.

                            Or a swarm of planes and cruise missiles. Shock and awe in 3D.

                              Anyone played Panzer General 2? Elite troops could get special abilities, like extra ammo, more speed etc. Could be implementable...

                              Also, some units having better defence against particular units, or offence. I think pikemen in Civ2 had 2x defence against horses.
