I had a golder teach me a new trick in my last game. He thought it would be a good idea to direct attack ten level 4 cruisers with 10 level 2 naval bombers. It did not go well for him. Sensing an opportunity to finish them off, I tried sailing to the airstrip he was based from while they were still refueling to bombard him away. Much to my disappointment, he gold healed his planes and flew away. I had no idea gold healing instantly refueled planes. I don't know if this is by design or a temporary bug, I don't use gold enough to claim any expertise in this area. Has anyone else seen this before?

Maybe he golded the airstrip for faster refueling time?

You could be right. I didn’t get a look at the airstrip. I was more focused on the bombers, which were definitely gold healed.

Same thing happened to me in a Team Up game.
The guy kept attacking against terrible match-ups (where he lost 2x-3x more HP than me).
Then he just healed up and did it again and again.
It was pointless to fight.
A few times, I managed to outright kill a stack with overwhelming force before he could heal.
But you and I know that's rare.
You don't take a stack of strategic bombers from 100% to dead in one hit.
At the end of the day, it's futile.
These guys don't care about a fair fight against another human being.
You're just an NPC to them. -

It didn't help that my partners going into the game wanted to win with a coalition of three. We didn't expect to run into hard-core golders. Actually only the half-wit was obvious about it; at least he didn't try to hide the fact that he was an idiot. The other one golded up his industry in the early game and coasted on that success trying to convince us he was a good player. -
So would be nice if you guys can confirm or de-confirm if healing refueling planes skips the refuel timer immediately. The posts in the thread read like that it wasn't certain.

They can't confirm or de-confirm; they don't gold themselves but saw it on an opponent. Shouldn't be too hard to try this on your QA dept though.When the fake daddies are curtailed, we have failed. When their roller coaster tolerance is obliterated, their education funds are taken by Kazakhstani phishers, and their candy bars distributed between the Botswana youth gangs, we have succeeded.

I'd prefer to not use gold to test. My alliance has a strict no first usage rule for gold.
