Default Re: Gliders or Paratroop transport?

Sounds like people have had bad Paratroop experiences.

Perhaps I was lucky, but I put down a company of paratroops behind enemy lines and they had few - if any -casualties on landing; then proceded to cause mayhem and confusion.

The key seemed to be finding a good drop zone, and then moving them quickly into woods, cover or built-up areas where they can easily hold their own against the inevitable armoured response.

I think good visibilty may help you drop on target. But also aids the anti-aircraft guns. Try to approach the drop zone from a nearby map edge, so the AAA won't get much of an opportunity.
