  • Smart Weapons! Cool! Carpet Bombing?



    So... if Firaxis thought to put smart weapons in... then is it logical to assume that they may have thrown carpet bombing in? ... a la B-17 flying fortress?

    ...a bomber unit that can lower the population points of cities and randomly destroy city improvements?

            maybe we could have 757s that people could steal and ram into buildings...

                Bombers should only attack cities's population and/or improvements, NOT military units, thats what CAS w/ fighters is for.

                  Exactly.... that's what has gotten me interested in this bombing thing. I wonder if carpet bombing will be in.

                  Oh Danny boy? ... where are you?

                      Killing civilians is an ugly fact of life, but it is a fact of life.

                      I wonder how extensive carpet bombing campaign would affect your cultue rating...

                            Well, does that mean that when you attack a city with a bomber that it will only kill units?

                              That's the way it worked in Civ2, Mr. Manitoban (I hope that I'm right on the flag; it's been a while since 8th grade geography). Plus, every successful attack lowered the pop. points of the target city by 1.
