	So Tanks instead of Air units..?? Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

So as before I am dominating the oceans. However I was on the track to pick up air units and such. Maq had stated that he does not use air units much against the AI simply because it is not needed. So on that note, should I switch to Tank Tech to get em fast or stay with Air techs. I like my cavalry but I do think that Tanks are prolly alot better.

Tanks are the Cavalry of the modern era. If you want to take enemy cities then use Tanks, they can bombard then attack. If youre not bothered about taking cities and generally want to play around, use air units. You could bombard enemy cities with Bombers then drop Paratroopers directly in by Helicopter.

	Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

HOLD ON JUST A SEC!! I thought only artillery could bombard?! Tanks can bombard?? Holy Mother of CTP2!! Or is it that artillery can bombard naval AND land units where tanks can only do the latter?

	Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

I must admit, I didn't know it either, BUT Maq are you sure?

yesterday I had a game SAP with goodmod and I wasn't able to bombard ?

Is it mod-dependend? (I know, it can be changed, but...........)

Slip of the tongue (or should that be finger) Tanks CANNOT bombard (in the vanilla game at least).
