not using rockets myself, i can only use them in specific situations/strategies so they are only any good just before a start of a war to bomb buildings for an attack in my opinion..

update- rocket changes
I'm not sure if this was a good change, rockets aren't very usable as a single attack (1 rocket), i find they are best used in a mass attack just before a start of a war to disable enemy buildings, however since the update they are now much worse at that, they cost a lot of rare materials and cant be used again (obviously), they seem overpowered but they are 1 use and now have less damage against units as well while still costing lots of rare materials (a much needed resource), any ideas on this?
edit: they also cant move very fast (20) and need an airbase to be used, so you are unable to use them once a war has been started as the enemy provinces that you haven't taken are out of range and they cant catch up with the fast moving tank warfare.. so once again only usable at start of war.

They can be used to destroy any group of ground forces at any stage of a war.

you haven't tried moving rockets to a good location to fire at any enemies then, before you can do this, you have either won or lost, remembering you have to have air bases to fire them, and in addition to this you need a lot of them, 1 rocket does minimal damage against a group of enemy units, i used 20 lvl 1 rockets and was only able to kill 10 units of a 20 unit group, i think the only reason to use them therefore is to destroy buildings which most of the time is useless unless its just before a war to disable air bases to stop planes intercepting your bombers or them firing rockets of their own..

Rockets aren't that good, you won't be able to take out planes or even vessels with them and their power against land units is about 20, so they're able to kill only 1 inf at time. I used them to atack a lvl 6 forst but I've stopped because arties were better.Chertiozhnik wrote:

Is there anything else to be doing apart from spamming rockets, or is that it?
Well, there's researching and building better rockets, and preparing to go nuclear. That will mean pushing a button every few days, and waiting for the big red one. Very exciting.
I guess rockets won't be useful against troops, they can only be used when you haven't strategic bombers and / or the air superiority to try to destroy the enemies industries, etc.

as the above says, they are best used as a strategic weapon, i would only use at the start of a war as you will lose surprise after the first day and they will be able to try and take your own air bases or move away any needed industry and units, best used then when you are starting a war unless you have an opportunity to damage enemy industry successfully, but using rockets in small numbers wont cause any lasting damage so again, use in groups so probably at the start of a war.Wilhelm von Roos wrote:
