Sorry for my ignorant, I'm not a missle expert, what I mean is don't US have any defense for nuclear strike? Like a patriot missle or something? I think there must be a missle that will auto launched when a nuclear is launched to intercept it.
The only missiles that would be launched at the moment in the event of a nuclear stike, would be actual nuclear weapons themselves, so that they would not be destroyed. That is how MAD works. But as I said, when you nuke a city in Civ III, the ICBM often avoids destruction, so this provides a second strike capability; along with tactical nukes on subs. (I edited their carrying capacity up to 4 per sub, a little easier to deter then!). This is the Civ III "MAD" if you will.:nuke:
