Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

Paratroopers can be useful to add another front to a battle. Try making it a part of your planned offensives and combine it with shore bombardment, coatsal invasion, pincer attacks, ect....

The best way to use paratroopers is to play the game as version 1.0

IIRC there were a few people who had difficulty downloading 1.05 due to the size (with the majority of the space being taken up by the added graphics) hence in future most new patches will effectively add to 1.05 as they won't include said graphics.
The 'c' of 1.05c indicates that its a beta with a few adjustments to 1.05 - no point in downloading the whole thing again when most of it (size-wise) is unchanged.

It isn't nearly as bad as their old system for upgrading EU patches - what with patch n having n-1 versions in addition to the patch - each of which upgraded a separate (previous) version.

Suffering from ads?

If you are talking about the beta patches for EU2 here, rav, then you have misunderstood. EU2 is now in patch 1.07. That's the official version. Paradox has also provided some beta patches that can be used if you want to help making the next patch(or just want to play with the newest changes). The game is old after all. You just have to DL 1.07 and apply the newest beta patch, none of the older.
