    Chewbacca Bowmen

    I just saw an AI longbowmen unit take out 3 riflemen units in 3 turns. The only thing I can figure is that they were using those laser crossbows like the one Chewbacca had in Star Wars. Upon inspecting the unit closely, I did not notice any growling or excess hair, so I don't know what happened.

    LOL! The Chewbacca image rules, dude!

    I have a question tho....

    If you had three riflemen in range, why didn't you just attack the Longbowman when it was your turn!? His one defense would have meant a quick death and saved you two riflemen!

    Or....why not ride a cav unit out before you lost the first Rifleman and spare yourself the trouble?

      Oh, no the Chewy unit didn't kill the riflemen on 3 consecutive turns...just 3 different turns. And they weren't mine... I saw the AI lose these three as they walked by the other AI's fortified longbowman on a hill.

      LOL on the 3rd rifleman, instead of the bowman making that drawing and twanging sound, I half expected to hear it go "RRRooowwwRR....*laser blast*, *laser blast*"! And then hear Elizabeth say, "Will somebody get this walking carpet out of my way?!?" PS does the domestic advisor look like Princess Leah to anyone else? hehe

        Are you sure there was just one longbowman? A single fortified longbowman shouldn't get enough ZOC attacks on a moving unit to actually kill it. Damage it, sure, but not kill it. Maybe two or three would get enough attacks cumulatively to kill, though.

          This is kinda OT, but only partially. So I'm at war with the chinese. I'm in the modern age, they're in the industrial age (up to steel/refining) and they still have longbowmen. Huh? Not only that, but they must be the same laser bows that apolex was talking about. They attacked my tank and I found arrows sticking out of the armor plating! Some arrows those are.


          (edit: I just found sword marks on that same tank becuase apparently the driver decided not to blast the swordsman from way far away, and missing that, decided not to run over the swordsman).

            That was the funniest post I have ever seen in here!


            Civ seems to be notorious for having primitive units destroying advanced ones.


            HAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

            Great post
