This strategy would be pure win to watch ^^. But ultimately pointless xD, much better ways of getting into the battle, including APCS etc.(as long as they carry out their purpose ). But I still would love to do this myself anyway for pure enjoyment :P.

You can see where that got them because we all knew who won the war.

However, they took Crete using this method. Still the biggest para-drop in history I think. Very successful. They never had another good chance to use it, as the eastern front had sapped their resources.

Crete was hardly "very successful." Yes, they took Crete, but it was almost a total disaster.

This might be a resuggestion...lol idk, but why not have a special airborne kit where the parachute is one of the slots. That way you can have jumpers w/o all the trouble of issuing out pilots kits and dropping crates. Maybe just enough kits for 1 squad of airborne, but then you run into the trouble of everybody wanting the airborne kit. It might work if everyone is on the same page....

yeah..if they didnt pick a fight with the russians.

Then the Russians would have picked a fight with them.

i usually do this on muttrah, but its really only me. Para to (i think D7K6). Theres only 2 roads, that & the main coast road that the mec can use to get vehicles any farther north into E,W,N, and Docks. Get a combat-engi, mine that road, c4 it also, and your good to go. Just watch out cuz after a kill or 2 they'll usually come looking for you. This comes in handy a lot when the cobra is up so they go on the main road.

We tried to do few times this tactic onn russian servers actially. That doesnt work properly, atleast now. All these topics about pilots with guns etc. are not good, pilots are pilots. There will be good if we would have special kits - "Special Forces". But now PR is game about mainstream groups of soldiers.
Personally ME do not want to make SF kits right now, bcs there are only 32 persons oneach side. If PR will have 64 persons each team - that would be great to do such kits limited to 3-4 people. And they would have tasks which ONLY they will can do on the map and help to team. That would be great, but not now.

If the BH is going to fly low enough to drop a crate (for the "paratrooper pilots" to get real kits from) it might as well land, too, thus obviating the need for paradroppers. They should just get rid of the pilot's parachute, all it does is make people think up this kind of 1337d00d nonsense.
