Bombarding Units

[Thrawn05]

I don't know if it was a game design or a bug (pre and post patch), or if this was posted already (if so, my bad ), but I notice my bombarding units can't attack a unit that was damage, even on the next turn. I've seen the AI use its artillery against my Vet marine in two consecutive turns .

I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this?

You (or the AI) can't bombard units that only have 1 Hitpoint left!

Then it must be a bug, since the AI is ALWAYS doing this to me! Has anyone else seen this?

I am soooo tempted to cheat and the AI of each civ not to use those units!

Perhaps you have more than one unit stacked, and there's one that has more than 1 Hitpoint left! That you can do too!

Besides i think you can always bombard cities, even if the units in there have only 1 Hitpoint left! Of course they won't be destroyed, but the damage will go to the civilians and improvements!

No, I don't have more then one unit there, and its killing my units!

I am diffently thinking of preventing the AI from building these units if it keeps this up .

That's okay.

Perhaps there should be a patch to fix the bug or let the user kill damaged units
