What??  Hey, no paratroopers allowed!  :wink:

Well, that will certainly spice things up - looking forward to defending against them…

Have you ever tried to use them in the AAA engine?  Right now, even in the most cut and dried situation in Normandy, it won’t let me add the 2 extra guys from w.Germany.

[gamerman01]

Yes I have.

Fear not.

You add them at the end of your combat movement phase.  You have to have faith and click “done”, then there will be a paratrooper phase.

Shame on you for not reading the notes in Triple A  :wink:

[gamerman01]

I didn’t think you could attack 2 different territories with paratroopers from the same air base.

Looks like the rule could be interpreted either way (sigh)

Will ask Krieghund

[gamerman01]

Of course it didn’t matter in this situation because you had 4 infantry in Archangel anyway, so I’m glad you split them up so I could ask before it becomes a significant issue

@Gamerman01:

Of course it didn’t matter in this situation because you had 4 infantry in Archangel anyway, so I’m glad you split them up so I could ask before it becomes a significant issue

I was testing the game engine myself.  One limit of the engine is that you cant paratroop out of a friendly airbase.  That doesn’t seem to match to the rule, “up to 2 inf in each ter with an airbase”.  The rule would seem (to me) that I can use airbase, not just native or captured ones.

[gamerman01]

Oh, wow.  I didn’t know that.

You’re going to have to post when you’re using an ally’s air base to establish that you are making the move, and then

Roll it on the forum.  Then edit it later.  Unless you can edit the infantry in to the battle in edit mode during the movement phase (note that you can click them over - you don’t have to add/remove)

I will notify Veqryn

[gamerman01]

PGMatt told me on the game thread that Triple A doesn’t allow the use of allied air bases  :|

Notifying Veqryn again….

[gamerman01]

Oops - I haven’t been awake long.

Meant to post that last one to the FAQ thread.

[gamerman01]

You may edit the 2 infantry from North Italy back to South Italy
