Nuclear rockets

Now, I'm not actually one of complain about units on this game, but Lord, something has to be done about Nuclear Rockets.

You have a unit with great range, which can destroy a stack of 20 units, cannot be shot down and can even wipe out naval units with ease.

Before you say, "hit the cities they're building them in" I tried that, but by God, can they be built fast.

I hate to complain, honestly I do, but come on- I understand this weapon was only ever a prototype during the war and then used in the Cold war, but we had counters for this stuff.

The weapon deserves its damage, its a great unit- but it's extremely OP due to having no counter: these things should at least take flak fire. Its the only way to balance it out.

Just a thought guys, likely to be unpopular, but still a thought

Remember when there was a bug that the nuke bomber had the same power in a convoy as in the air, and you could kill tonnes of units with it? My friend reports that you can do it with nuke rockets now too.
How could I remember? I am new here....

True.
The past is a foreign country.

The only counter to nuclear missiles should be your own nuclear missiles. M.A.D is always fun.

You have to research all the way to level 4 nuclear power, level 3 atomic bomb, and level 4 rocket before you can research the nuke rocket. Let's not forget the fortune in rares you're going to spend; also, you can only research two techs at once, so you're going to be way behind everyone else in tech if you go for nukes.

So I ask you: Why would I do all that if they could be countered? I wouldn't, and no one intelligent would. You might as well just take them out of the game.

Well I decided to just skip the comments

Really.. I dont think they OP usually when you are at this stage, often 20 units isnt really going to matter

however I think people forget, that if there is one stationed a long, fly 2 bombers, that will nail it

if Anything I think the range should be increased... well maybe I dont know

There are many ways to counter... Nail them on the move..

Nail there production.. that needs to be easier I guess... cos that is really the most effective

usually when I fire my first Nuke, thats my target.. his production...

I dont think changing the unit is the best way to go, maybe change other abilites to counter this,

I also dont want to see AA near this, or the missile system against this

Nuke bombers already can be defeated by fleets no bother
