Cruise Missile

Description

Cruise Missile

Low-flying guided missile predominately used directly against military units. Can carry conventional, chemical or nuclear warheads. This missile has the shortest range from all Missile types, and has a small splash damage signature. A map point or unit stack are able to be targeted, making it precise in nature rather than relying on splash damage. A nice advantage to the cruise missile is it's target tracking capabilities, making it able to follow units even if they change position.

Cruise Missiles are not mobilized like other units. In order to fire Cruise Missiles, you must produce conventional, chemical, or nuclear warheads. Every missile that you launch will automatically consume the specified number of warheads.
