Just a suggestion ... if you think it is too big, call it a B-36 :cool:

You may consider a submarine-based unit. The US is converting (has converted?) some old boomers for spec-ops stealth deployment. A Seawolf is also being used in that role. As for the proposed transports not being used for deployment, well, we have seen it. We saw in the Falklands, Desert...

Heresy! But I've been using the Halifax DD for just this purpose. See http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=31967 I just about the right "oversized" and floats out of the water just enough to be rather perfect for the job ... indeed a far more versatile ship than you...

I got it ... peso *LOCO* m000000000000! :lol: :p :D :mwaha: :rotfl:

Reactive armor are two plates with explosive in the middle, to provide better protection against shaped-charge explosives. They appear as little boxes on the vital surface areas of a tank, such as the turret.

Hey Dragon, take your time dude, it is a very cool unit and we can all wait for good things :) Sorry to hear about your computer. It is odd. There are generally temperature monitors in computers which issue a siren when it gets too hot. Over the years, I've lost a few fans, and luckily the...

Back in the days of xconq, I set up the ability to have destroyed units appear as junk but clean themselves up in 3-5 turns. This allowed me to peek at AI users to see where they were fighting. A general-purspose "tombstone" may be enough to indicate where people laid down their lives for king...

How is this unit coming along? Just curious. It sure looks nice.

You have real talent Balou!:goodjob:

YOU ROCK OVERSEAS! I've always used that cool tractor, and now I will again! But it is too cool for a modernized settler. MODERNIZED WORKER! Thanks, dude! Nostalgia and another cool Civ3 unit! :goodjob: :D [dance] :sheep:

Hehe, I just tried setting the "wheeled" flag, saw it didn't work, and sat down to figure out a way to make this work. From the past, I had tried to build an LHD which carried air and land units and remembered it not carrying either, tried it out, found it works, rushed to my browser, and woo...

It is rather disappointing w.r.t. to the load ability, but oh well. I have seen the AI use carriers very well, primarily when I created them for the AI players at the start of the game. I declared war on the "Romans" because they repeatedly failed to remove the destroyer I trapped in my...

As ideas for others to use/adapt, I have decided for my own scenarios: Dedicated ground attack aircraft: Il-2 -> A-10 -> F-16 -> F-117 These aircraft have decent defense and are dedicated to strike missions. They cannot perform air superiority missions. They are lethal against land...

Oh, and BTW dannyevilcat, that cat really does looky pretty darn evil. He keeps freak'n me out :eek:

Good ideas Kenshi. Actually, what I have been doing is distinguishing air superiority from fighter-bomber a bit more than you have. The F-15, for example, was built under the subtitle "not a pound for air-to-ground". Only later was the F-15E built to help cover some shortcomings from the...

OH YEAH! You guys continue to amaze me :crazyeye: I get so dizzy with all these awesome units. I never believed that with 3D, the artistic community would do this. Finally, an armored amphibious assault vehicle or MAV, take your pick [dance]

They are going in my game right now OOOHH THANK YOU :goodjob: :lol: :santa: :love2: :jump: :sheep: :cooool: :love: :D

Graeme, I'll have to try this, but I think I did try this once already and it didn't work quite right. If you turn off "load" the aircraft cannot be loaded onto the carrier. Unfortunately, you can still re-base the aircraft, and when the carrier moves, the planes just stay there in the middle...

SWEET! Now, the difference between "load" and not for fighters can make sense. Awesome! :cool: F-14 and F/A-18, woo hoo! And the Harrier to boot =)

From what I have read, the PLAAF is the largest if you count the number of planes they believe they can fly. However, most are 1950's vintage. I ain't getting in one :lol: The Chinese have also gotten their hands on an old Australian carrier as well, and have been trying to get their hands...
