RAR:Bomber Won't Load on Carrier

Built carrier (1st generation, not Super Carrier) in RAR mod. Bombers
("B-17", not long-range bomber) should rebase to carrier, but won't.
Looked in editor, but it's not clear to me which variable allows
aircraft to base on carriers.

Any help?

This could be a range issue. How far is the city that has the bomber from
the carrier ?

The Bomber has a Transport Capacity. It's designed to not rebase to
Carriers, as you can't load transport units into transport units.

So if I turn that off I can rebase? Didn't know Transport was what let
carriers hold planes. I was looking for one of the "special" ratings
in the side box, something like the Invisible ratting. I can't try to
fix this now, but will this weekend.

I only ask because without bombers the carrier is pretty useless
(fighters aren't worth building it for ), and the Civopedia for
carrier seems to indicate the designers intended it carry bombers.

RAR and DyP change the rules, but not all of the civilopedia yet.

I haven't tried RAR yet, but in DyP the bombers never could be on
carriers. For that matter, in the real world that is true too -- no
carrier handles big bombers.

Instead, you have better fighters which go on the carriers, not
bombers -- as you go up in tech of course, the fighters and bombers
both get better. But always, the land based bombers are the heaviest
attackers. Also, the advanced flight and later fighters *are* rather
decent in bombardment, unlike regular Civ3 where they aren't much good
at all.

I recall using some late DYP bombers to attack cities on the next
continent. They also had troop transports which could go long
distances.

You are definitely right about the civilopedia. Many are left over
from DYP or the epic game. I usually build one unit and see if it
works as expected before building more. For instance the tanks I was
using said they could attack multiple times in one turn. Other units
cannot move through jungle or be loaded onto mountains.

Yeah, I believe the main battle tank in RAR says it has multiple
attacks, but it doesn't. They added a fourth level to tank evolution
in RAR (WWI, Churchill, main battle (a Patton more or less), and final
for the Brits I'm playing now.)

I've never built carriers; always something more pressing. My current
RAR is going well and I tried one to see if it was worth it.

You're right that first-gen carriers didn't operate big bombers
(Doolittle notwithstanding), but they had dive bombers and torpedo
bombers that had order-of-magnitude more attack value than fighters.
There are no equivalents in RAR, so I figured the "B-17" was just a
graphics saving in the scenario and they intended, as the Civ-p said,
they be able of carrier-basing. With just prop fighters the investment
in carriers isn't worth it, given their vulnerability. Better to leave
the fighters ashore for city defense.

> Instead, you have better fighters which go on the carriers, not
>bombers

Now, with the F-18 variants, you do, but the Intruder was a pure
bomber right into the 1990s. Carried a bomb-load greater than a B-17.

-- as you go up in tech of course, the fighters and bombers
>both get better.

I'm looking for a way to attack southern Africa from the UK, before I
have supersonic tech and can build RAR B-1s and get inter-continental
bombing. Fighters and land-based B-17s don't make it with my current
bases.

But always, the land based bombers are the heaviest

Agree. I'll play with the editor some more. As good as DYP/RAR is I
still like to tweak.

Given your status as Civ-god I'm surprised you haven't tried them.
They are order-of-mag better than the Firaxis game. Well-balanced,
lots of historical tech "jumps" filled in very thoughtfully, better
government list with overt trade-offs, etc.

I played as Japan who had a KhaGo as their tank unit. I am not sure
if that was their Main Battle equivalent or an earlier unit.

RAR did seem to twist the balance of unit power from DYP. In DYP the
Bedouin Raider where better than tanks since they could go through any
terrain. I think the Japan special unit was the Bushi or Samurai.
Whatever it was I cleaned house with it.

Carriers? Bombers?
Just finished playing my first RAR game on chieftain level. And after 56
hours and a histographic win my most advanced land unit was Cavalry. Admiral
of the Fleet for sea unit. For the air I had just researched the ballon
tech, but hadn't built any...
How are you guys getting far enough to have bombers and carriers? Are you
continuing to play after the scoring is done? Or is there some trick I
don't know about.....

I never made it to carriers/bombers in RAR either but I did get tanks.
One difference is we where not playing at chieftain. At the higher
levels the AI gets a tech advantage so they can research faster. They
still seem to get tied down at some point and start using inferior
governments which halts their research. I was able to keep moving
along beyond any of the AI. I had the most powerful civ in the game
break a ROP and wipe out all my units advancing toward an enemy. That
not only slowed me down but I needed help to take them down.

There isn't much secret really. Play at a higher level and do plenty
of tech trading with the AI. Try to get one of the wonders that work
like the Great Library and you can cut research to nothing and let the
AI pull you along. Use the extra cash to build up your civ. Than
when their research slows to a halt because of a poor government start
researching.

I guess you will have to tell us what happened. I am guessing that
you are just too good for you level. I remember a DYP game I played
where the Scandavians wiped out everyone on my continent until they
got to my neighbors and myself. I never had something like that
happen in regular Civ3.

Carriers are unfortunately not hugely useful unless you cannot get a
land base in range. If you can get even one little city in place, it
can handle your air operations (of course, you must defend it, and
that can make a carrier worthwhile again).

I do think that carrier bombardment planes would make sense, though
in general, they are more or less just "fighter-bombers," a lighter
kind of bomber than the big land-based ones of their era.

I don't know why they aren't in there. We could ask to get them
added.

The RAR fighters aren't bad at bombardment once you get to the jet
era. Not as good as the strategic bombers, but still worth using.

I've played DyP quite a bit, but though I've downloaded RAR I
haven't yet had time to play a game.

I don't know Japanese armor at all, but I think maybe not. RAR has a
WWI, WWII (Churchill for England, only RAR I've played so far in tech
tree), a 1950s-1960s as "main battle tank" (English is essentially an
M-60), and a modern, terminal model that's an Abrams, T-80, etc. It's
possible Japan, not being a big tank building nation, doesn't have the
M-60 step variant?

The by-civ unit variations in RAR are one thing that makes it so
interesting.

I'm playing on Regent since I watch TV at the same time. <g>

As others say, trade, trade, trade. Ask for multiple techs on each
trade--don't accept the first offer. Be the first to find new civs and
trade them dry, then sell, sell, sell. I play as non-violent a style
as possible. I build lots of research and infrastructure. I rarely
play militaristic civs. Just my style. There are lots of ways to win.

True. I was USN though, and I want more naval stuff in Civ4! <g> It's
always been the most glaring weak point of the games and the AI. So
many great strategies open up with water mobility, choke point
control, anti-commerce, etc.

True. Hope the designers (Isak?) are still reading here.

In the meantime someone suggested playing with the transport variable
in the editor for the heavy bomber unit. I may have time later today.

True. I haven't tried to load fighters on the RAR carrier; I've been
getting by with flak units. Hope the fighters load at all.

And they get recon, and big help if you have BBs and cruisers
available in the TF.

I only play huge Earth, so the standard geo-political issues arise in
every game for me. I'm hiding out in the UK with very few, but
awesomely-producing cities, and I need a way to eat at AI
infrastructure without hordes of ground troops. The Ethiopians have
all of Africa, most of Asia, and Europe up to Eastern Germany and are
racing for a culture victory. The Iroquois have N. America; I have 80%
of South, which is providing me a monetary base while I try to clean
up the massive pollution left by the former Inca rulers.

I re-read your post and you did say that. I was in a hurry and missed.

RAR is superior to DYP in that the invisible units are gone, but
mostly because it has the continental rally feature. With hundreds of
units and dozens of stacks it's very useful.

I lost my hard drive while playing that game so I can't go back and
check. I do recall getting the Main Battle and not having it be able
to attack multiple times in one turn. I think maybe what happened is
I didn't make anymore of them. I was going up against units which
did not require a more powerful tank so I built more of the cheaper
models. I recall being disappointed in the Main Battle because I
wanted to use it to take multiple weak units in one turn

The Japanese Main Battle is the Type 90.

It was my first attempt at RAR. I had heard it was pretty hard. So I
wanted to start at the bottom and work my way up. As far as what happened
in the game. I traded tech on occassion, but I was the tech leader early
on. I was the only civ that had a navy of any size. That may be in part to
my eight or nine privateers cruising the coastlines. I wipped out all the
civs on my continent and was preparing to start on the next one when I ran
out of time. I had 68% population and 44% world area. Next closest civ was
the Iroquois (sp?) at 11% each.
Of course I was playing on a huge map, which may be a factor in overal game
speed and tech research.

As far as the standard game goes. Cheiftain is a little too easy for me. I
can win on Warlord, but not all the time....

True enough. I've used carriers, but only sparingly.

The right maps enhance their usefulness though. The Pacific
conquest scenario gives fair value for carriers -- though even there,
holding island and mainland bases can minimize their value. Not
entirely, though -- it is still useful to attack the enemy from
carrier based air units, rather than risk your air force on a
vulnerable island.

With limited range, I do find the carriers good for raiding. You
can hammer a lot of resources and road nets with air bombardment.

Right, change the transport thing and they become transportable.
Not sure if that would make things unbalanced, but I doubt it.
Carriers aren't that hot as it is, so even if it goes a little too

No idea if the AI can use them though.
