Radar Artillery... what settings?!

Right, this is the only remaining unit that i am unsure of what settings it should be given with regards to lethal bombardment?!

What do you reckon? Both in terms of realism and gameplay...

Currently i have them set to be the only unit other than jet fighters/F15/stealth fighters and battleship/AEGIS to be given lethal land bombardment. Additionally i currently have them with lethal sea too...

However, i am not sure whether this is slightly imbalancing/unrealistic especially since now my artillery and cannons have been set back to non-lethal bombardment.

Any comments/suggestions?

I'd say lethal land bombardment is reasonable for air units only. Killing distant units with battleships or radar artillery is neither realistic nor good in terms of playbalance IMO.

If you have them with movment of 2 (like I have them in my MOD), DO NOT give them lethal bombard.
Or else, you'll get Civ2 HOWIZERES.

right then, no lethal land would seem the way forward as i also have them movement 2?

what about lethal sea? Or indeed have no lethal bombard but the blitz ability to coincide with modern armour/tanks. So if they don't move they get 2 shots!
