[Freeciv] planes

["Andrew E. Schulman" <andrex@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think all of the airplane units in Freeciv aren't worth bothering with.  Even 
the most powerful and expensive plane, the stealth bomber, is often defeated by 
a mech inf (a much cheaper unit) in a city with a SAM battery or on a hillside. 
 I also lose a lot of these units by accident, by not getting them back to base 
in time or by accidentally moving them off of a city when they have 1 movement 
point left at the end of a turn.  For long-range attack, I'd rather have a few 
battleships than a
carrier with bombers.
