On Bombarding

[yayaya]

Hi All,
Couple of C3C questions for y'all please;

1) Is there a way to bombard with a lot of units without having to direct each unit individually. That is, how can I take my stack of bombers or artillery and have them bombard the same location easily.

2) Auto-Bombard rarely seems to work with Artillery etc...., I set a unit up to auto bombard and next turn (if I don't take the city), I will need to re-give orders to the unit. Annoying.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

End your turn for 2), that should do it.

For 1), not sure, check the hotkeys which is posted on here ( I think I saw it before)

1) No, sadly, you can't do it. It would be my dream if you could, but, alas, it is not possible.

2) Mr. Highland is correct. The game engine is set up so that all automated actions (workers, go-to orders.... auto bombard) are done at the end of your turn. This sucks, because that means that the units bombarding then are useless. You've already attacked that turn, and by the time next turn rolls around, the units will have healed anyways. You really need to do it the old fashioned way.

If you have the option on 'wait at end of turn' they will bombard (and all the units will move, ect.) and then you will have to hit ENTER or SPACEBAR to end your turn, so you can have other units then attack.

Thats a pain in the arse though. It's just plain easier to do it by hand.
