About capturing planes

[Akaoz]

I saw someone trying to figure out how to capture enemy polanes the other day.

This may be old news, but by default one can capture Stealth bombers, because they have no defense rating. Bombers have a dense rating of 2 so they go the way of ships when the city falls.

I don't think any planes can be captured. I've captured cities and watch even SB be dstroyed.

Well, I'm playing your version of Marla's World Map and I just captured about 10 Stealth Bombers from the Chinese. All Bobmers fall to the ground though.

Probably sometying with the changed rules of Marla's map.

BTW why isn't the Creation forum used for this kind of discussions?

Sad isn't? You work very hard to maintain the Files and Creation forums and for what? Forced to check here for topics that should go into those forums.


When will people learn.

As far as I can see from the editor there are no settings that have been changed when it comes to the Stealth Bomber.

No, but it might be something else that makes the game not recognize it as non capturable.

I don't know.

Try this in a normal game first. THe mod may be corrupt.


Please PM me further.

I have grabbed cities that had stealth bombers and they were distroyed not captured, for what it is worth.

Anna749, I think you're looking for the thread "Which victory do you usually go for?"

It's pretty easy to set up a test with the editor to show that with an unmodded game, stealth bombers, stealth fighters and cruise missiles can all be captured...
