    yes you can, a particular trick that i've used occassionally is to disband the FP city once I have a prebuild nearly finished in a better location.

    • Maybe they should add some features to marines, like

      Ambush: the marine will be unseen in mountains/hill/forests and will attack any unit coming near without revealing its position. Only infantry(not mechanized) and spies can reveal its position. You would have to build some infantry just to protect your armors.

      Calm revolts: the infantry would be the only unit in modern era which could quell resistants after invading an enemy city.

      Invulnerability to airstrikes: The infantry cannot be attacked by air units (apart helicopters), it would make the helicopters more useful too.

        I hate to go on rants but these ideas deserve one.

        First off the Ambush feature if implememtd AT ALL would be far more appropriate to the Guerilla than the Marine. The marine is a beachhead establishment unit and should remain as such.

        Point 2: So the only one that quell Revolts would be a marine? Why would you want that option (other than a justification to build more marines) ? The result would be that any time you took a city over 4 in the modern ages your army would dissapear in city flips

        Point 3: Why on earth would marines be invulnerable to airstrikes. This would have a result of destabliizing game play as well as being historically inaccurate

        The marines abilities have been enhanced in C3C. if this is not enough for you then use the friggin' editor.

        • As Marines have been fortified Infantry just like a butter, but there is no need of bombardment.
          There were good times when navy was well developed and short work for them as from now.
