Why am I unable to move bombers to some cities?

[MyOlde]

In my current game I can move bombers to certain of my cities but not to others. Why is this? And what do I have to do to enable that?

[ColdPhoenix]

There is a limit to the number of aircraft that can be stationed in a city, maybe the limit has been reached in those cities? The limit can be increased by building an airport.

[MyOlde]

That must be it; thanks a lot.

Yes without an airport it is 4

[jbp26]

with an airport its 8. in your vassals cities, its unlimited (unless this was fixed in 3.17)

Max 4 here as well. Don't know if it's 4 in total (e.g. yours and the vassal's) or not though.

really? i could have sworn adding an airport increased the capacity.

[Jaybe]

And you would be right, jbp26. An airport increases the air unit capacity of a city from 4 to 8.

I THINK an airport in a foreign city allows YOU to have 8 aircraft in it, but I'm not certain. I rarely try to put more than a couple in that position. v3.17 removed the no-limit bug.

I think MW was trying to say that there is now a maximum in the vassal's cities just like in your own.

Quite sure I read in the changelog that this was to avoid an exploit where you could have a large fleet of planes nearby enemy land.
