I really like the air mission concept. I do think it could be tweeked some, but the basic idea is a big step forward. I like the way it simplifies and speeds up the game. Want to spend my time on strategy and not manually moving units from place to place. And there were problems with the way planes could be used to blockade in the previous versions. I think air power is better balanced with the ground forces in CIV III.
Think an "Escort" mission or "Air Army" would be an improvement. I do wonder, though, how useful the Air Army would be. Would it really add anything to the game that is not already there. Seems like it would just require larger fleets of fighters for defense and divert attention from some other aspect of the game, which is primarily about land acquisition, not air power.
Why not just bomb a target with fighters before sending in bombers to clear the enemy fighters?
