The ultimate way to test this is of course to hack a movement item, set it to yield some absurd number of extra movement points, then give it to an appropriately qualified and assigned general equipped with War Horse and see what happens. With a high enough value, one should by this reckoning be able to go from Cadiz to Moscow in one move. If we are going to have armoured cars and ironclad warships in the nominally Napoleonic era, why should we not go one extra step and have a Paratrooper item, at least in a mod? IIRC the idea of aerial assault troops was first mooted by Benjamin Franklin, so the concept isn't anachronistic, nor (given the existence of the Montgolfier balloon) is the technology - sort of. Of course it would have to be fiendishly expensive... An entire year a half later, I would like to say that cities in WC have health while EW4 cities do not. Therefore paratroopers would be insanely overpowered as you can just fly into an enemies undefended city, factory, even their capital. And worse, they can do the same to you. Say you're playing as Portugal and take over Iberia and France sends paratroopers into one of your western cities. Then you look back 5 turns later and you lost half your territory. I would agree. One round in HRE you had Vienna, the next turn you lost, with the rest of your southern cities. |
