Follow-up Comment #1, bug #20544 (project freeciv):
I haven't actually surveyed layouts of real life cities for this, but it seems
reasonable that in many cases the wall might well be built right to the
water's edge. So if a ship in a harbor gets attacked by infantry, it could
well be behind a wall.
Surely the routine that finds a city's defender takes BadCityDefender into
account [i'm not finding it right now]? Perhaps BadCityDefender should modify
the Defense value and/or Hitpoints alongside the Attack value. When a unit is
not in their natural element [a ship in dock or a plane on the ground] they
should be considered essentially defenseless and automatically eliminated,
IMHO.
Anyway, to me that was the lesson of Pearl Harbor.
