Paratroopers allready with a rank

[PizzaAtomica]

I vote for the idea of the paratroopers having a +1 rank because it reminds me of the drop pod reinforcements from Tiberian Sun Firestorm

[JOo]

All I'm saying it that paradrops already has the potential to do major damage, especially if used in conjunction with a move to draw attention away. Promoting them 2nd ranks and up isn't negligible.

thats also the case when they are "unranked" .. i think you put to much into those "ranks" , i mean yeah there is a difference to an unranked infantry-unit ... but those are only marginal imo

apart from that , its still a faction-specific support-power ... how would you compare a "Spy" towards "unranked Paradrop" ? ... with all the gadgets we gave him ...

power-outage , radar-reset , stealing money , scouting inside bases , one-hit-killing a tanya , activating sonar , access production building and grant your own infantry +1 rank (every e1 and e2) which is non-revocable ... and he does that all by being unranked himself for the peanut-costs of only "500"

and you can build as much spies as you want , as soon as your radar is there

Agreed. Spy OP. Either remove completely or increase price of spy to 7500.
