Bazooka

How come no one has thought about an anti tank infantry team like in close combat?
:ripper:

I would do it but don't know how

maybe he shold have only 1 health bar but must be very effective against tanks...erm....that can't be done in the editor....so sorry.

I dunno....maybe someone else can suggest how it could be done.

That is a good idea. :goodjob:

There must be a unit which is very strong against tanks.
Good point.

I would believe that the mech infantry and the normal infantry already are armed with bazookas. They after represent whole companies or even batallions of troops. They wouldn't have much change against tanks without bazookas or anti tank missiles or similar.

Im sure ive heard ppl mention that Pikemen have an advantage against mounted units... its built into the game so Firaxis could release a patch to include a Bazooka Unit.

hmm... good idea tho!

I am pretty sure Pikemen do not get any bonus agaisnt mounted units even thought the 'Pedia makes it seem like that. Some people around here are really a Cavalry solider and not really a regular person....

IIRC there isnt any rock-paper scissor type units in civ3 right now, theres only attack-only units and defense-only units. So you mass produce one type of unit. They should improve the combat system, then all these cool new units could be added.

There should be an M4 Assault Carbine Infantry (the uprgrade to regular would have some armor too), an RGB Grenade Launcher, a Bazooka one, and a Stinger Missle Launcher one. These ideas should sound pretty familar- let's see who can 1st guess right where most of them came from (except the bazooka)!
