when you want to suppress the enemy's industrial capacity - or his infrastructure - you need to produce a lot of missiles/rockets to unleash a long chain of rockets and hope the enemy will succumb.

proposal = you click your rocket test facility and you get a little screen where you can automanage rocket sequences. This pop up screen is quite similar to the current selection mission for deploying and firing missiles. You just select an airbase and then you'll select up to 5 targets. Generally you are talking about a "plan" or "sequence" where your country will try to suppress the enemy industry or infrastructure.

when you produce a missile or rocket it has a little button that you can select to automanage or not that unit.

If they are automanaged, they'll be inserted in the airfield that has gotten a missile sequence. That airfield will fire them automatically one by one to the selected targets (max. 5).

It may sound confusing, but it's very easy.

example = I click my rocket test facility and I choose a "strategic missile attack sequence mission". I select Cherbourgh and I select 2 targets for that airfield = London and Bristol. Then I click again my rocket test facility and I choose a "infrastructure attack sequence mission", now I choose Calais and I choose London and Bristol as targets for my attacks.

Now I issue a production order (or go to existing production order). I choose the button "automated management".

Now my rockets are deployed in chains to these 2 airfields and are handled automatically.

So f.E. I have a production order of 8 serial and 4 parallel, the system will automanage my attacks and will assign with each production batch, 2 missiles to Cherbourgh and 2 to Calais - and then they are distributed in sequences to the strat. attack sequence and infrastructure attack sequence.

Very good idea!
Just one point: you should be able to shoot rockets to provinces not to regions. (as it works for nukes already) Because it's a bit disappointing if your missiles target the provinces in south east england and not London, which has the most IC and would be the best target.

perhaps it goes automatically at highter level rockets - more accurate,

Spruce you are a genius. I just finished a production run of 99 rockets and it took 15 minutes to deploy. 20 minutes to redeploy. And finally about 2 hrs to setup targets. All that for 20ish days of game play /sigh.

Change the bloody rocket thing. Have a building (rocket launch facility) which, when active, fires a barrage of rockets at a target every couple of days (you can set the firing frequency with a slider, and the target) while consuming lots of supplies for each salvo. Rockets are more like ammunition than "units".

well thank you for the credit, but I really hope they change this because the rockes now are more annoying to the human player building them instead of the target nation getting them on their head. ;)

basicly it's pretty easy to understand why I made this proposal and how it works - I produced 200 rockets and then I canceled all order due to my growing insanity - I just kept 5 of them in spare to shoot my nukes with.
