Spring, 1941...time to sick Kurt Student and his paratroopers on Crete. Problem is, that PARADROP MISSION does not appear in the option list for a transport with paratroopers loaded on to it. There is a button on the transport display (while in a friendly province) that says paratroops on board, click to unload. However, it does nothing.


I am trying to play the Germans as "historically accurate" as possible, and this is holding me up big-time :(

Your transports need to be at full ORG to conduct a paradrop mission. You also can't unload paratroops until your transports are at full ORG either.

Yah, that's a 1.05 thing as opposed to a C.O.R.E. thing. It's to prevent exploiting paratroopers. You used to be able to paradrop onto a province, have them go back into the transport and then paradrop again and again

Yeah, I like that idea. Those transports are prohibitively expensive, and the idea of dropping 12 para divisions behind lines with 2 or 3 of them simply isn't fair.
