Missiles against ship? Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

The game said missile strong against ship ,but I think it is a great misleading. The missile hardly hit target as large as carrier. All missile can do is destroy building.

Support Apolyton, buy Alpha Centauri

I have used cruise missles to take out cruisers before. Just for fun though in a game I already won. I haven't done the math but it's probably not the most economical. The problem is that the missle will only hit if the target doesn't move at all from when you fire until it hits. It won't track the boat if it moves.

I really think it should be homing ability for the missile. You can see arrow hit rate better than missile,WTF?

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

V-2s should stay the way they are.

But Cruise Missiles should be able to "home" in on a unit target, especially ships (look at what modern Harpoons, AS-4s, and Tomahawks can do).

Enter the AD-FREE zone

Amen to that. Homing cruise missles makes perfect sense to me.
