Am I the only one to ever use nukes defensively? The only game where ive ever used them (other than right before launching a ship...well in this case thats not true either), was when playing the french.
I was 2 turns from space victory, I had about 3 nukes in my arsenol and was not the largest country in the world by a long shot, nor did I even fully own my continent. Then the english cross my border with 100+ mechanized infantry. In the closest town to them I had 4 mech infantry :P And mostly 2 or 3 in my other cities, and maybe 10 modern armor total on another border.
My response was to instantly sign mutual protection pacts with every other country in the world, then nuke the whole stack while it was in my own territory until I ran out of nukes. Of course since it was in my territory the MP's kicked in and the other civs had no choice but to like it. When I was done nuking there was only about a dozen of the stack still alive, and though I still lost my border town, I won in the long run. After my ship left, I saw the whole war through until the last english city was gone
And I kept the nukes coming and flying everytime they'd start to amass a new stack :P
Lesson learned for multiplayer, never invade a nuclear civ with your whole army in a neat stack :P
