I was thinking t'other day about the para drops that we can do, and how amusing it would be if there were some way that they could be more, well, useful. how possible would it be to have the troops, when they land, deploy an mg as opposed to turn into the running man? so for every 3 or so troops you get an mg or light artillery piece? or even, if new ground units could be created, a section of rifleman - low RoF mg sort of thing. just imagine, you can deploy reinforcements to your beleagured and AA-less ground forces after they've taken a pounding from enemy ground attacks, deny the enemy their forward air base by dropping troops on the tarmac (the ultimate expression of air superiority!) or bolster the defences of your own airbase to protect from attack.
this is pure speculation, and may well have been thought of and discounted long ago, but god would it be fun online!
"wtf?! vulcher!"
"no son, it's the airborne" :twisted:
