counterfire

[Lumbergh]

should bombard units should be able to counterfire if they are fired upon by another bombard unit, and possibly damage the attacker (like in SMAC)? I think this would better reprsent the artillery duels seen in the us civil war, WWI, etc, and make it possible to destroy enemy bombard units without attacking, espcially if they have a large number of defensive units or are guarded on rough terrain or even another city. It would also apply to earlier bombard units as well for simplicity.

I kinda like the bombard system as-is...with exception to air raids.

Really, I can't tell my stealth bomber to avoid destroying the precious marketplace that I wanted to keep for myself?

Bombing runs destroy schools almost as often as barracks. Leave bombing damages as is.

Not with today's precision guided bombs.

I don't know what war you've been watching, but there are a few people in Iraq who'd disagree with you. Not to mention a few dead people who can't disagree with you.
