Warrior kills....Caravel?

[allhailIndia]

Yup, that's what happened, with the 1.61 patch.

I was at war with Isabella, my warrior hanging around in a neutral port, when her ships try to come to port, my gallant warrior jumps at them and ....sinks them!!

Is that a bug or am I missing something...?

 

[GiantRaven]

Sounds like a bug

I'm sure I read in the manual that Land units can only attack Land units

 

[GoodSarmatian]

This is not a bug, and it was there before 1.61.
If the enemy captures one of your cities it will destroy all ships and aircraft, and if he enters a neutral city he will destroy all of your ships aircraft stationed in this city. Strange definition of neutrality in war...

Once I unloaded three missionaries in my "friends" city. They were all killed by a spanish caravel...

i'm sorry, but i think this is hilarious, not to make light of your loss...

i like blockading a city with a bunch of naval units in it, and picking them off, 1 by 1 with your gunships because they can't take the town.

 

[Older than Dirt]

Do the gunships even get the promotion boni?

 

[naterator]

sorry, mr. dirt. it's just for fun, but i'm pretty sure your gunships don't get hurt, at least.

Crossbow men can kill gunships. Pikemen can kill your first tanks reasonably regularly which is a hoot. The other day I had a knight knock off two gunships which borders on the ludicrous. This is mainly on the lower levels. Musket men are absolutely useless against crossbows when attacking a city and even in the open. So there are still a few bugs in the system.
