Paratroopers as reinforcements??

[Ulrik]

Hi again,

I am trying to creat a senario where Paratroopers are supposed to drop in as reinforcements (in turn 7-8 or sommeth)... I found the reinforce button but no ETA-one?? I think all would be solved id I could change the ETA..?? any ideas??...

In the para deployment screen hit the "T" key to prompt the turn enter command..

I believe the manual says you must plot a drop hex and then cancel that plot, and THEN hit the 'T' key to prompt a new delay.

I haven't tried M4s method.

This can be done with artillery barrages, also. Sometimes, like at the beginning of a new game, that delayed artillery can be really handy.

Thanks guys!! Jup it's just to mark and then "unmark" and press T... Works great!!

On a related issue;

Is it in any way possible to call in paratroopers as reinforcements (F4) during a battle, or does the AUX forces have to enter at the reinforcements hexes?
