I didn't agree to anything, I only voted on the poll and that was it. I'm still going to talk about it until something is implemented into the game.

lol, you like moving goal posts, eh?

Unbelievable... you guys are talking WAYS to include paratroopers... just DAYS after a poll clearly showed no one WANTS them!

My suggestion would be separate unit similar to commandos, day 24-30 special unit including level 3 strat bomber required, same rough build and cost only built in the capital, can fly from airfield to airfield distance of tac bomber (1 hour re-fueling window) 2 day initial build time and a 4-5 day recharge to jump again. Need to be 90% strength to jump. Distance of attack is Tac Bomber lvl range.

Upon entering a territory with Anti Air or Interceptors they take a 1 full hit to strength same as an attack but first damage is doubled to account for getting shot out of the air/loss of planes and men while their first attack is diminished by 1/2. No units defending 1% loss due to injuries (which is ridiculously realistic).

That makes it a later game unit and doesn't hamstring the unit to the point of being worthless.

It feels like your proposal is adding a lot of logics that the game does not have Svven78 (beyond obviously "jumping", point of the unit.

That's why I just prefer "no capture", which already exists for trucks. Simple & clear to understand.

I can understand the no capture province thing but para troopers are meant to capture and hold, maybe a 2 day no movement add on as well since they are supposed to grab and hold the area until relief comes or they die...

Bro, this is a simple answer, make a special 3 day event with paratroopers. If the public doesn't like them don't keep them. Jeezus.

The problem, of course, is that paratroopers would require a huge programming effort, which would be lost in case of the predictable outcome.

Ah and there comes the plea

Geeesh, this thread is still up? I’m still missing an effective defense that will be affordable by this unit, all the ideas on how to use them are willy nilly but on defending it?. All I see is people doing logical jump hoops to implement them and figure out ways to make them still powerful with a smidge of nerf but no one actually showing any strategy to defend by them rather then “just place one AA ok each region” which is without saying the most double digit IQ solution I ever saw in this forum for a couple of years now and funny enough also then was in a para thread

I love JCS DARRAGH idea that he suggest them not to be able to capture stuff, and get killed if dropped close to an AA, cost like a commando and move like a militia but immediately after he suggest that at day fricking 9 can just drop them on the AA, reconquer the region then slow down the tank etc etc. like, dude, do you even connect your synapses before posting? Day 9 there is sometimes problem of manpower and especially resources, how the hell you got research of strategic bomber lv3, para, build a barrack lv3 and a airstrip lv3 and still be in the positive to win without using gold(I’m assuming all in a alliance match where 95% of the times gold use is forbidden, in casual matche go nuts on spending)

Like, I guess you hate actually using army to attack and like to turtle your way to day 40 before being steamrolled by even the lowest player? And no. It’s not fun to talk about it if that’s the same logical argument and conclusion after >20 threads on them.

And about the poll, I can assure you, it’s a tiny percentage of player but surely they all are player with experience. You can’t ask this idea to lv5 player that still have to figure out how to use a fighter without direct attack an AA.... I trust more people here that are maybe 10% of all the cow player than any player that isn’t on the forum

Oh no, when my intentions were to have a decision about things and hope people be quiet for a while, and here it goes again. Full circle. I have failed myself.

Not to change the subject but why don't Nuke Subs launch Nuke Missiles??? Yeah I know they can't launch ICBMs but then again that would mean a new type of missile like a Polaris etc. Just asking.

2 times the build, so produce in capital only with a 2 day timer

1 hour refuel vrs 15 minutes

tac bomb radius but requires lvl 3 strat to build

90% health to jump

2 day timer between jumps

Once a unit arrives at an airfield to jump, 6 hour timer to jump that resets if unit is attacked or moves

Defending units hit x 2 against air on first attack then its normal inf defense

Paratroopers are supposed to be better trained than infantry but fighting light

So maybe 75-80 of a commando related to stats same cost to build.

Holding up troops truly serves their purpose, not capping territory.

Airborne units present purpose usually involves taking an airfield and bringing in more troops and supplies or hampering / holding key locations and elements.

Usually not taking or holding entire provinces without support.

Maybe a 3-5 day timer as well, if the enemy units don't attack the unit in 3-5 days, a unit being left alone long enough will accomplish a lot, so maybe the owner of the province looses access to build units and looses the province if enough time passes without action.
