Re: Help with setup
I'd be happy to give it a try as well. I have personal experience with airborne operations (US ones) and the friction that goes along with them. I've also looked a good deal Soviet airborne capabilities.
I haven't ever done any PBEM though, so I'd have to figure that out.

Re: Help with setup
The Russians actually developed more sophisticated ways to drop armored vehicles by parachute than did the U.S. they drop the vehicles on platforms fitted with retro-rockets that fire a coue meters above the ground to soften the landing. They also drop the vehicles with the crew already inside (not something I'd like to do!) so that they can cut the straps and just roll off the platform when they hit the ground. IIRC the Soviets had a pretty massive military airlift capacity back in the day.

Gracias!
This is not a PBEM game exaclty - all you need to do is open the scenario in the editor. Buy and deploy the defending Soviet forces.
Then save.
Then upload the files here.
I don't want to know the size or make up of the Soviet force. Playbalance is not an issue.

Re: Help with setup
For what you are about to receive may you be truly grateful.
Enjoy!
I'll be curious to see this with the Swedish forces added.
