When you equip you airbornes with thompsons and activate that ability so they move slower and are more accurate , when you press the retreat button they retreat the same slow speed as they were moving and shooting . you literally have to wait that the ability ends to fall back your squad .

Storm troopers are the same. It is the consequence you pay for activating the ability, a bit like SU-85 activating los ability.

Otherwise the ability can just be activated everytime munis are available

Just because Storms and Paras both retreat slowly when those abilities are active doesn't mean it is intended. It's also quite possible it is a bug in game mechanics affecting the speed modifiers those abilities produce. The SU-85 ability is free, for example, so a downside is provided. Munition abilities typically don't produce a downside since the cost of munitions is the gate mechanic.

Its intended or it would be batshit OP. These abilities are squad wiping machines,and the only real drawback is how vulernable the squad it while doing it.

High Risk,very high reward,and they force you to think about it before you just click it.

given that nothing else (HtD, 1919 suppression) works that way i assume it's not intended. obviously the speed change isn't canceled when the squad retreats.

Ye I was thinking that way , cuz if it is intended its really stupid then , the drawback is to big if u can lose a trip vet squad for that, and to be fair Thompsons are only good at close range and while doing that ability u can throw nades and they cant dodge them..
