Hello,

My question is the air transport of paratrooper is hardcoded or can be modded to allow another unit to be air transported ? My problem is that the paratrooper unit blocks the arriving reinforcements causing significant malus to the arriving units. It is possible to create a new unit (for example in the place of CAV) which can be air transported but does not include this blocking mechanism? Paratrooper causes significant decrease of effectiveness to the units arriving by support defense mission, indepentdent from the size of this reinforcement. I would like to create an unit similar to paratroopers but without this problem. The creators of HOI stated this mechanism is not a bug but feature because paratroopers makes turmoil in battlefield slowing down arriving reinforcements. It is fine but the problem is that one paratrooper division causes the same malus for 1 reinforcement division and 10 armoured division which is not too real. It is any solution for this - making another air transported division - or it is hardcoded ?

thanks
Biga

p.s. if it is not clear I can find the topic where we talked about this blocking mechanism of paratroopers.
