[SG, DS]Landings

> DS:

Depends if they are armed, I guess. However, I can also guess that they aren't
cheap bits of kit, so they are unlikely to want to hang around and be shot at
by the other sides tanks and PBI unless absolutely necessary.

Shoot at them? Depends on the game you want to play.

> SG:

Read the opening chapter of Starship Troopers. Despite the power landing

and such like, he still ends up in the wrong place.

> BOTH:

I would say yes, though it's an option not necessarily open to all troops.

Interesting ideas. I like the idea of ultralight insertion. In DSII, they
could be size one, no armour, one pilot, one passenger, no weapons... Any
other thoughts?

"Best laid plans of mice and men..."

I figure, no matter how sophisticated the landing gear, the defensive/AA
gear will be just as sophisticated. So, net affect is cancellation, and thus
human error equates spread. Or, another way to look at it is, if you want as
many forces as possible to make it to the ground, then you need to spread them
out, and make things very truly random, in order to not be singled out...
Unfortunately that means a random landing.

On a side note, I really love the insertion from the Final Fantasy
movie...
