Getting a kill with airplanes? Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

Well it is 1952, and I am playing the Americans with the Romans, Greeks, and Germans as my enemies, right now I have 6 aircraft carriers full of planes buzzing around. A golden age would be really nifty...

In order to get a golden age you have to get a kill with your unique unit, the F15 is certainly a nice UU but I do not see how I could possibly kill something since it counts as a bombard...

Incidentally I found a bug with cruise missles, they will sometimes kill enemies, but if the enemy has only 1 HP then you cannot initiate an attack using them.

Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

seems they have made cruise missiles a subclass of aircraft with a roving base.

that would explain the bug!

send this to the Firaxis feedback page.

Tired of ads?

Well, Enigma, seeing as how aerial interception is something only the AI players can do, and not you, it seems you're boned.

The best suggestion I can give is to use your F-15s to bombard his cities. If he has fighters, and they scramble (which, if he does, they always seem to do...) you just might win the combat.

I say just might because I've seen a number of my German jet figters go down in flames to British Spitfire interceptors. Oh, and at the same time their bombers are raping my landscape because MY useless fighters refuse to scramble to intercept.

Of all the bugs I've seen, lack of interception is the worst. It's particularly infuriating because the bug only impacts the human player, not the AI.
