Airborne Operations
introduction
Airborne operations in world war two online are often among the most popular type of mission for both vets and new players. Thus an airborne mission can attract a lot of players. Most airborne operations are used to target a side’s AO where the main objective of the drop is to capture the spawn CPS. Some AOs can only be attacked quickly with waves of airborne troops. Targets in the Zees or in England are good example of this.
Other times drop are undertaken when an AO has gone stale and as an attacker you hope the side defending has switched off. These drops in particular rely on the element of surprise as you hope to get as many troops on the ground as quickly as possible.
