Base-launched cruise missiles?
Svevlad:
Well I totally agree that it isnt that kind of game. But this is a game of variety, so choosing different strategies could be more interesting. Anyway I drop my case. The idea came because it would be very easy to insert such thing because it would differ almost only cosmeticaly from the ceptors. May I ask why did you dropped the idea of naval/underwater battles? I am a new member so I dont know. Was it because of engine/code problems? Or is it just too much work?
BTAxis:
Underwater battles were never part of the plan, so we didn't "drop" them as such. If I had to come up with a reason why we're not including them, I'd say they create a lot of extra work for no real gain.
Hertzila:
Just a quick note, isn't the existing missile launcher basically this? Big AA missiles fired over long distances to relieve some stress from your interceptors?
Sarin:
I think he meant something a bit bigger, probably intercontinental. But problem is that to carry enough fuel to get big enough payload fast enough over such distance, you'd need something as big as Saturn V. And such things are hard to miss.

NO I did not mean to shoot aliens with A-bombs, I meant using an expendable interceptor-like missile for engaging alien aircraft which is too fast or very tough.
