  • Fighters vs Gunships

    In Civ4, it seems when I attack a gunship with a Fighter, it only causes damage. But IRL, wouldn't an F-15 fighter, say, blow an Apache gunship out of the sky completely?

    IRL, can't a helicopter fly over water?
    "You are one of the cheerleaders for this wasting of time and the wasting of lives. Do you feel any remorse for having contributed to this "culture of death?" Of course not. Hey, let's all play MORE games, and ignore all the really productive things to do with our lives.
    Let's pretend to be shocked that a gamer might descend into deeper depression, as his gamer "buds," knowing he was killing himself, couldn't figure out how to call 911 themselves for him. That would have involved leaving their computers I guess."

      IRL, don't countries normally change HoS a few times per millennium?

          Head of State?

          Anyway, in real life an F15 would blow up an Apache, but this is a whole brigade of Apaches.

                    It's never been tried, we really just don't know.

                      If they have a really big rubber band, they could flick their pikes at the choppers blades, or actually through the windscreen, killing the pilot.

                        In the air, fighter > gunship, but IRL if your gunships can carry troops, you can fly nap-of-the-earth, land the troops, which raid the airbase and blow up the fighters on the ground.
