ok,for main tree I plan to go with 101st (even though camouflage weapons seem cool to,but dunno about asymetric warfare)
and for T1-T2 with Aerial adwantages and oversuppled since it seems more useful than OSS detachment t1/2

as for the bottom tree,I plan to have doctors withouth borders,light infantry,improvised explosives(with around 8 mines I will surly do some dmg),and I am not sure should I take markshman or strafing run(since it is hit or miss to due of map size,even though I generally dont play 4v4)...
About airborne atg,mortar and mg...are they any different from standard ones? since if only difference is in ability to paradrop,I rly dont think I need them all that much since they are more expensive...

The Ab support teams are manned by Airborne guys, that's the difference. Imagine it like if you recrew a 30 cal with Rangers.

Wish US Infantry's T4 buffed their support teams with rangers instead of riflemen guys like Heavy Support for terror, god they're terrible (the US ones that is, heh).

But yeah airborne teams are pretty durable compared to their US infantry counterpart.

hmm,not bad as it seems...they have more health,better armor?

might be worth to take them and recon runs instead of one t2,but which one,hmm

[Sach]

they have 65 hp per man which is a lot. They also have a special type of armour which makes them harder to hit when they are on the move - of questionable usefulness on a support weapon.

[lionel23]

But they also benefit from many of the 'airborne' buffs, as well as gaining fire-up too, correct?

Ab mortars and mgs gain fireup. Also if u go for airborne overhead u can drop every ab unit in 10 secs instead of  slowly pushing u stuff across half the map which is huge on bigger maps.
