Re: Paratroopers in the Pacific
Back on land so had a quick go at, as you are new to the game screen shot of turn 3 situation. I droped in direction the 2 gliders are facing as in from the South West. Bought Howitzer Jeep glider section for arty support & as Gila said looking at the distance to far flags would not make it in time, plus 12 aircraft. Landed with no resistance & quickly killed all but one Jap LMG squad by the end decisive victory. Key to Paras is land in open terrain never woods rough slopes etc as you will get landing injuries, I had 2 units drift off & lost 2 men on landing because of it. The other thing is till you get Paras organised which you never really get time for use smoke they have lots. If shot at dont fire back smoke & move people up so outnumber next turn unless you can already engage with multiple units. Use your Baz teams to go for the flags tanks are unlikely so the rest can do the fighting. Without the jeep would not have got flags furthest East but would still have been a victory score was 285-21 would have got 50 or 60 less is all.
