Suggested Improvement for Submarine Functionality

[Shane Aus]

Subs can be a great unit but they have a number of current issues.

1. See http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=383021 for details on how a sub can be seen by adjacent tiles
2. Can promote a sub with inappropriate promotions. Currently it is possible to promote a sub with land bombardment 1-3 when a sub can not range attach the land.

It would be great if the following could be introduced

1. Introduce the ability to range attack a navel unit in a city.
2. Finally it would be great if a promotion of something with some tech could enable non nuclear subs to range attack any land tile

Nuclear Subs are capable of launching missiles while regular subs are, I assumed, pre-Cold War. In any case, removing the land bombardment and replacing it with a different tree (I was thinking Logistics->Blitz (or whatever the promo that allows for movement after attacking)->Your idea of a range attack that damages naval units in cities.
