I have not tried to assess whether there were airborne operations at the eastern front, but I tried to make clear that using wikipedia links isnt a viable source for your argumentation. Clearly, they did not teach you this during your two year study in Germany. Besides this, you really seem to know all about war history...

I did not use the link as a be all end all, but had I just said "hey I know more, its this way" with NO reference behind it, I would look a bit more foolish. The fact that I know, even without some wiki link, that airborne forces were employed on both fronts does me no good if I am just saying I am an expert over a computer forum.

One Corps sized failed drop by Soviets= heavily used.
Ok dude!
You are the one who is surpriswd airborne drops are not prevalent in CoH2 which portrays the Eastern Front, derp!
Ps:I lived 5 years in Moscow and 4 in Hamburg and have served in the military up to reserve officer rank.
Your basis for argument is hereby trumped and disqualified.
I dont care what your qualifications are, what you stated was flat out wrong. Both Russians and Germans employed airborne troops on the eastern front. I gave you a small reference; you can feel free to try and disprove it with other references, but all you will find is support of what I have already told you, because thats the historical facts. Happy hunting.

Permanently BannedSo far your supporting arguments have included that you are a US citizen and lived 2 years in Germany.
Gj.
I will amend my statement to account for your pedantry:
"There was no SIGNIFICANT use of airborne drops on the Eastern Front."
To the conclusion it is not "surprising" that they do not feature in this game, which was your premise.

I have given you factual and historical references. Yes, it is wiki but I would be happy to find and post many others here.

http://desertwar.net/airborne-forces.html theres a good one. Though they were used less often then on the western front, they were still used on both sides. Your point is moot I am afraid.

Regardless of the fact that I'm a degree holder in History (what have I started), I do have a respect for historical accuracy, however I'm more interested in game dynamics which gives choices. I still would like to see a dynamic where zee Germans could mount a para-drop and perhaps the Russians could bring in a squad of Soviet partisans from any map direction. Obviously this would be linked to a general ability.
“Out of every one hundred men, ten shouldn't even be there, eighty are just targets, nine are the real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, for they make the battle. Ah, but the one, one is a warrior, and he will bring the others back.”

Im afraid not.
Which ones of those are Eastern Front drops?
Nice googling! You're a real pro!
Protip: Reading your links before you blatantly post them might help not looking like a fool!

U asked for a reference that I can copy and paste here, hence google. Or did you expect that I have my German professor dial your telephopne? I would assume any mention of soviet, aka russian, would refer to the eastern front. You are a troll, I am done. You have been proven wrong on mulitple accounts

That link doesn't mention even one single Sov drop on the Eastern Front.
You failed again.

It does mention they were used, as does it mention they were used by germans in the end of the war, aka eastern front. The link I provided the first time gives a specific battle they were used on the eastern front. I have given you all you have asked for and proven your ridiculous comment to be false. Convo over

This thread should be locked. It's going nowhere, and is largely poisonous.

Alright, thread locked, use PMs for this kind of conversation. This is the second thread you are not using common sense to discuss, I don't want to see a third one.
