    Impossible paratrooper

    In nearly every game I play I come asross a civ attacking me with a large stack of paratroopers.
    Mind you, this is somewhere in the middle ages and when I'm ahead in tech. So there is no way anyone could already have the tech to build paratroopers.
    Can anyone explain to me what's going on?
    Somebody told me I should get a signature.

    Only if you explain to us what you did to mod the game!

      Try posting a save and I'm sure someone here will look at it and give you feedback.

            AI paratroopers are even rarer than AI armies.

                  i've seen the AI use paratroopers once in C3C. and they landed in there own territory

                  was a modded game, small map, 16 civs, with huge world tech rate.

                        binyo, it seems many of the AI civs' uses of these kinds of units have changed as we've progressed through time.

                        Never seen an AI Para.

                        Saw one AI chopper: Dropped of a grand total of one Bowman.

                        Never seen, nor ever read a report of, a C3C AI Army, other than in mods.

                          I remember the helo drop. It was not to be believed. I don't recall seeing one of them either.

                            I'll post a screenshot as soon as I come across it again (should be somewhere this weekend).
                            Although I modded the game I never touched the paratroopers. I checked their prerequisits etc. and everything was still as it was supposed to be.

                              But surely a paratrooper wearing a suit of armour would plummet straight to his death?
