Helicopter Improvements

[Hunter]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make the choppers able to pick up people in the field thats what makes the real ones so deadly.

Or even make the AI understand land transports but I would prefer the chopper being able to pick people up.

I like this idea

It would also be nice to have attack Helicopters (like the ones in Civ2)

Good idea, Hunter!!!

I just have doubts about the implementation of choppers because they don't work like the traditional air units nor can they be clasified as land units. They Civ2 method was useful, but it will be corny to do the same in Civ3.

Still I hope that Firaxis can come up with a good Attack helicopter unit.

I don't like the idea of helicopters becoming more powerful transporters because you need a city to land in, if its on another conteinet and it takes away the purpose of the sea transport, right now it's limted to 1 non mechinized unit. But an attack chopper is a different story, if it can be gotten to work. If there is an attack chopper I would like to see it be able to launch from a carrier.

I like this idea as well.

It could have an option to pick up infantruy units and deliver them back to the city/airport that the helicopter is based in.

I´d like to see to have pickup and attack option for helis as well

This is a good idea, it would make the game more realistic

It would be like the opposite of the airdrop command paratroopers have - an air pick-up command for helicopters

Good One
