The Paratrooper
The Paratrooper is the amazing combination of a flying troop and a ground troop. It is a barbarian that found a parachute and learned how to use it to its best advantage! Starting out as a flying troop the paratrooper slowly sails down for about 7 seconds(at lvl 1, increasing with ugrades) while dropping small bombs much like a balloon. At this time only air defenses, archer towers, etc. can attack it. But the paratrooper is taking damage to its parachute not itself. But if the parachute is destroyed before the end of 7 seconds it drops to the ground immediatley. Once it lands it becomes your basic barbarian. At this point the paratrooper does become whatever level barbarian you already have. Ex. Level 2 paratroopers, does lvl 2 paratrooper damage. But I already have lvl 4 barbarians. So once on the ground the paratrooper would become a lvl 4 barbarian. This troop is meant to be used in very large numbers just as you would with any other barbarian or archer. But better!
