Para bonus...

[GottaLove88s]

Has anyone ever seen a para mod, to be used say 3-4 times in a game, with refresh delay like artillery, etc...?

I'd like to target a square during a game, and then next turn, have a para 'chute into a random square of the 3x3 grid surrounding the targeted landing site. Enemy units can react if they have LOS to the landing square...

Has this been done already? How easy/hard is it to add new bonus buttons?

First cut, let's do it without any snazzy graphics... But final version, it would be cool to integrate with some of BA's animations... Maybe one of the bombers?

Can think of several scenarios where this would be very cool...

merr has created it in an mp map
it can be used 3 times
on map there was an airfield and the man who owns airfield owns paras
when airfield is conquered the other player can send his paras

Funny, I was working on a bonus for airborne similar to the ones in Company of Heroes. Will need to search for that map from Merr. Any link?

Thanks guys! That Merr chap is a bit of genius... Somebody please bring him back... Everything that we think of, that we'd like to do, he's already done... We just need to find and adapt his (awesome) code
