@crockett36 I'm very pressed for time. What do paratroopers do? I detest the fact that they do not need other units to attack in tandem. Any historical precedent for that? I can't think of any.

@crockett36 Okay. Beelee, can you advise me in any way, being ignorant of the rules despite having listened to them 3x?

Paratroopers are explained on page 18 https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jI_1JdIC-1KiTihBICJAbtX3GpVYnNgf/view?pli=1

Basically, If attacking or defending by themselves, They hit at 3 for first rd of combat. You may need to add a "Para Boost". This gives them +1 on defense and +2 on offense for first rd. Triplea will spawn it if they are by themselves and it auto dies after first combat rd.
They can't be used to attack Capitals unless they move only 1 space and attack like regular Infantry.

They move 2 +1 from AB. The Waffen Paras are badass so you need to keep an eye on them. They move 3 +1 from AB. They are A3 D4 and there values don't change.

So you might want to send a little more firepower into the Caucasus.

Here's from Game Notes

You need to switch your Engnr to "Russian_EngineerAttack" for offensive combat.

Also, a reminder for Victory Conditions, if Moscow falls, it's game over. So different than oob.
