Paratrooper drops… Campaings.

[Pawatwoop]

Yeah, the military chutes are made to get the lowest common denominator of trooper to the ground as quickly and safely as possible. They tend to just go down with extreemly limited steering ability.

I did some test drops last night. With 5 squads per plane, they averaged to drop one squad every other hex. So the stick spread over 10 hexes... Or 500m. That's a little short... But you can also figure in it's a 3-4 minute window with only 30-45 seconds in the air... So the other 2-3 minutes the trooper is hoofing it to link up with nearby squadies.
