ok, no map should ever, ever have airports.

Apart from being a result of poor territory design, they are nonsensical, as aeroplanes could just go to any country they want.

you're right and why do we need airports? plans can land anywhere perfectly especially in the mountains.

and in the same line of thought, why do we have harbours. i mean ships can also go anywhere, right?


PS: another fine post by spockers :evil:

in correct.

While technically airplanes could attack anywhere they couldn't really fort anywhere. Those are strategically placed airfields where the military actually has them.


I intend to make those more pretty also.

Any other responses in the early stages?

Ok, fair enough. But, are you going to have the rule that airports can attack other airports, or airports can attack any territory on the map?

I would call Iraq Civil War, and have a series of dots being
American bases and another series of dots being British.

exectly, so if aeroplanes can't attack anywhere, they become nonsensical.
