This is a New Balloon I created for Sword_Of_Geddon who wanted a more traditionally shaped Hot Air Balloon. It serves as an Early and enduring air or land transport with or without Attack and Air Bombard. *Great way to place and retrieve Land Mines too
...not to mention giving a quick lift to a Great Leader or workers, etc...

*Sounds: Run, Death, Bomb and Attack (Run flc and sound used for Fidget)
*Some information about "THE HISTORY OF HOT AIR BALLOONING"...to help with your Civilopedia entry.
*.ini files for use as a Land or Air unit.
I have enjoyed pesoloco's "Balloon" unit and I used parts from his balloon when creating the War Balloon: slightly altered Basket, Run Flames and adjusted aspects of the explosion concerning the Death. I created an all New Balloon Design, Added frames to be able to see the Balloon fall to the ground and an Attack flc and Air Bombard flc were added. I designed the Actual Balloon and changed the Death sound and created the others.
The Air Bombard and the Attack use small "cannon ball" type bombs and obviously the War Balloon pilots have a catapult or spring type mechanism to launch them for the Attack
This basic multicolored Balloon was mainly created to offer a more traditionally shaped Hot Air Balloon to be used as an early air transport and air bombard unit with attack ability...but as a Land or Air Unit, use as you like.
All War Balloon Files have been combined with a few minor updated files. It can be set as a Land or Air Unit.
