Counter bombard ability

[Dida]

Some unit should have counter bombard ability. Like a battleship should have a chance to automatically bomb back if bombarded by another unit within it's range. (except air units of couse)
So if you move a destroyer next to a BB and try to bombard the BB, the BB might bomb back in the same turn.
I think the chance for counter bombard depends on the attack/defense value of the bombed and also on how advanced the unit is. A cannon would have a lower chance of countering a bombardment from an artillery, for example. This way we can make all (or almost all) bombardments leathal.

Counter bombard, I like it. It makes the game a little less turnbased. Now you can use a lot of bombard units in your turn and your enemy can't do anything about it. If a counterbombard feature were implemented in the right way this could improve the game a lot IMHO.

Counter-battery radar in the modern age.... just place it and all units within its range can bombard back any bombarding unit that is within their range.

Sounds very unlikely to me, but would make artillery warfare much more realistic and fun

what is IMHO?

IMHO = In My Humble Opinion

Some other abreviations are also used here often such as AFAIK (As Far As I Know). I didn't know those abreviations either when I first joined here. But when you know them it will save you some time and before you know it you think it is strange that there was a time you didn't know them.

One term I've already heard people saying on here is 'My words are backed with nuclear weapons', but no one really bothered to come up with an abr. for that.
